George springs for a trip around the world for himself and Emmett, but he dies in the midst of applying for membership in the mile-high club. Debbie continues to take out her frustration over Michael’s new relationship on Ben. But when the homophobic Detective Horvath asks Debbie out, Michael behaves just as irrationally toward his mom. Justin’s new job as a go-go boy is affecting his life but things take a real turn when he is drugged and almost raped at his boss’s party. Justin quits the job and accepts financial help from Brian.



Peter Paige : My favorite scene from season two is the scene where George dies. I truly believe that is something you will never ever see anywhere else on television ever. It is uniquely Queer as Folk. It starts off as this fun, naughty, mischievous, sexy scene in an airplane bathroom that just goes terribly, terribly wrong. As an actor I love how it turned. I love how this great thing went from this moment of wonder and then the terror and then the horror of being trapped. We had done a few takes, and in each one they cut a moment after one or two bangs on the door. In that last take they let me bang forever. The director just let me get crazier, and freak and freak and freak. They used a lot of that in the final take. I just love how genuine it was.
