Celeste (Margaret Cho) and Bam Bam (Bruce Daniels) are best friends still stuck in the white bread Midwest hometown where they grew up. Celeste lives at home with her out of touch Mommy (also played by Cho) and has retained her outcast status since high school. She and Bam Bam are free-spirited rejects in a town where looking or dressing differently is perpetually uncool. Shunned on a good day and taunted on a bad one, the only thing they have is each other. Bam Bam and Celeste both feel that life is passing them by and after seeing an ad for a contestant search for “Trading Faces”, a realty makeover show, they decide to follow their dreams to New York City.

'You won't leave me, will you?' Nick asks Brandon shortly after revealing to him the results of his last blood test for HIV. 'I don't want to die alone.' In spite of Brandon's protestations, the two soon find the love they had shared for many years in ruins. One year after their breakup, Nick is confronted with a ravaged immune system and a CT Scan and lab values which, along with his worsening forgetfulness, clenches the diagnosis of Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) -- a condition he has seen claim his friends and one which he vows will not take him. Due to the aggressive nature of the disease, he has only a few days of conscious life remaining. His plan, he announces to family and 'extended family,' is to voluntarily end his life himself before the disease renders him unrecognizable to those he loves and he, in turn, is unable to recognize them. Uninvited to the farewell party, Brandon's presence is greeted with jeers from those who see him as having abandoned Nick is his time of greatest need. Keywords:Honorable Death,Pool Party,AIDS
