00:00Previously, Unheated Rivalry.
00:02Can I ask if you've ever been with another guy?
00:05He's really okay.
00:07Let's be best friends.
00:09You and her are not.
00:11Are not.
00:12You're playing in one team with Holland, right?
00:15I don't know.
00:16I don't think I can keep pretending I don't like you anymore.
00:20Do you know what I like?
00:22I don't know.
00:23He's not like James.
00:28You scared me.
00:29I was gonna ask you, will you come to my cottage this summer?
00:33You know we can't do that.
00:42I'm coming to the cottage.
00:53And the most valuable player is...
00:56Scott Hunter.
01:13Um...
01:15A few weeks ago, I achieved my lifelong dream.
01:20Winning the cup.
01:23For those of you who've done that know how it feels.
01:27I don't even think I have the words to describe it.
01:31But something else happened that night.
01:34Something you may have noticed got a lot more attention than the Admirals winning the cup.
01:43It's been an interesting month.
01:48In case you missed it somehow, I came out as gay in a ridiculously public way.
01:55And I've always been a private person.
01:57I've never really shared anything about my private life.
02:01But from what I've seen over the past few weeks, it's maybe important that I do a bit.
02:05But...
02:07Fans have been sending me messages.
02:10And a lot of young fans.
02:13Telling me how much it meant to them for me to come out.
02:17And look, I love hockey.
02:20I'm so grateful that I get to do this for a living.
02:24But I also know what it feels like to not fit in.
02:30When I was a teenager, I...
02:34I realized that I may be that thing that hockey players like to throw around as an insult.
02:40The kind of language that I heard on the ice and in the locker room every day was a constant
02:44reminder that I was different.
02:47When you have a secret that you work as hard as I did to protect, it's...
02:53It's exhausting.
02:56It's a non-stop effort.
02:58And it's also really, really...
03:02Lonely.
03:06Thankfully, I found the person who changes everything.
03:10And he gave me the confidence and strength and the need to be honest about who I am.
03:19Fear is a powerful thing.
03:23But then I found the one thing that is more powerful.
03:27So I share this honor with my teammates and my coaches.
03:32But I also share it with you, Kip.
03:35You have made me better in every conceivable way.
03:41I love you.
04:11Is this a jeep?
04:13No, it's British.
04:16Practical.
04:17Good in the snow.
04:19Okay.
04:50Are you hungry?
04:52It's about a two-hour drive, but we can stop for something if you want.
04:54No, I'm okay.
04:59I think you're gonna like the cottage.
05:01It's relaxing.
05:03Ah, is that what we are going to do?
05:06Relax.
05:07I hope so.
05:10I would like to relax with you.
05:13For once.
05:17I bought groceries, so we don't need to leave.
05:21Or not leave much.
05:24If we don't want to.
05:25Thank you for inviting me.
05:31I'm glad you're here.
05:33Me too, but also like terrified, yes.
05:48Did anyone recognize you at the airport or anything?
05:51No, no, not that I noticed.
05:53Cool.
05:56The cottage is super private, so we don't need to worry about anything.
06:00Not even your parents?
06:01No.
06:02I told them I was on a silent retreat, like a meditation.
06:06What?
06:07Does that sound fake?
06:09I'm sorry.
06:11I don't know if it was anyone but you.
06:30I can carry my own bag.
06:32How are your ribs?
06:34Fine, I can take my bag.
06:36I can't believe you played with those bruised ribs.
06:38Whoa, you can't.
06:41Okay, maybe I can.
06:53I can't believe you played with those bruised ribs.
06:55Your real estate finish really paid off, huh?
07:00I didn't buy this.
07:02I had a bill.
07:03Oh, I know.
07:10I'll give you a tour, if you like, or...
07:12I got to make us some lunch.
07:14There's plenty of food.
07:16Also, I bought you Cokes.
07:18So, uh, the water here is really good.
07:21I have my own well.
07:23You can see it.
07:25In case you're thirsty.
07:43Go, go, go, go, go.
08:06Wait, um, it's been a while, so I might not last time.
08:10Yes, same, but we have two weeks, so...
08:12Yeah, cool.
08:14Wait, um, same?
08:16Hmm.
08:18You said, same.
08:19You haven't been with anyone lately?
08:22No.
08:24Not since.
08:25No, not since.
08:26So can we...
08:27Really?
08:29Really?
08:30Oh, it's not a big deal, okay?
08:33Yeah, but it's been...
08:34Months, yes, I know.
08:36So can we fuck now, please?
08:39I haven't, either.
08:41Not since the last time.
08:53I have an idea.
08:59What?
09:02For the next two weeks, let's just be honest with each other about what we actually think
09:09and maybe how we really feel.
09:15I will try.
09:17Really?
09:18Yes.
09:19I will do anything if it will make you touch my declaring when I move.
09:24Should I show you to your room?
09:27There's two guest rooms downstairs, so plenty to choose from.
09:30I will need a king-size bag.
09:32They all have a king-size bag.
09:34And the view.
09:35They all have a view.
09:36Yeah.
09:37And they will need the...
09:38What do you call?
09:39An ensuite bedroom.
09:41Well, that might be a problem.
09:43Oh, where is that?
09:43There's only one with an ensuite.
09:45Yeah, it's fine.
09:46Ah.
09:55This is awkward.
09:57This room isn't available to the guests.
09:59Mm.
10:00Disappointing.
10:01I'm sorry, sir.
10:02We'd really like to accommodate you, but...
10:05Sir, I'm just a bellboy.

10:08Oh, I think I know how the staff likes to be treated after a few years.

23:52just don't
23:56we can figure something else out okay
24:00okay
24:29i have another idea
24:31i have another idea what idea what is happening
24:36what if you played in ottawa
24:38how do we see division as boston we're still rivals
24:41okay but listen
24:42first off super close by
24:45second ottawa needs a star center and they're nowhere near the cap so they could definitely afford you
24:50and maybe we could start to change the narrative a bit
24:52i just woke up what is the right thing
24:56boston and montreal that that's intense everyone knows that but montreal and ottawa
25:01and look lots of guys have friends on other teams
25:05they're not rookies anymore they're younger guys coming in frothing at the mouth let them hate each other
25:10we don't need to keep this up until we retire do we we're not we're not
25:12fucking wrestlers
25:14okay it's very late and this is so many words what are you getting up
25:18you play for ottawa i play for montreal
25:23okay we're only two hours apart and we start a charity something that you know we both care about
25:29and we come up with a story like i i approached you where i approached you fine sure
25:35and we tell the press and everyone that by working on this cause that we both love
25:39that we developed a mutual respect for one another and um you know
25:46don't we like sucking each other's dicks any questions
25:54okay okay okay it's not bad so we start the charity yeah and it wouldn't be
25:59bullshit either like we can really start a charity something cool that that means a lot to both of us
26:06and you know we still play hard against each other on the ice shut up
26:12and then if people saw us out in public or whatever it wouldn't be so crazy
26:19and we're only two hours apart all year round
26:24apply for like citizenship here in canada and maybe one day when we both retire
26:32we could be together for real
26:40you really think that further head all in there
26:45i do about this
26:51and is that what you want to be together
26:57so much so much it scares me

30:19I was thinking we could start a hockey school, like a summer camp for kids, and give the money away
30:27to mental health organizations, and suicide prevention.
30:34It was just an idea.
30:40She would have loved you.

33:34Fuck, I'm scared.
33:36Yes, it's scary.
33:38But you're afraid to shut up.
33:40You are, you're brave.
33:42I don't feel like I'm gonna die.
33:48So much for eating them into it.
33:52Maybe...
33:52Maybe he didn't even know this.
33:54Hmm?
33:59Okay.
34:00I'm gonna get changed.
34:02I'm gonna drive over.
34:05And then...
34:06And then, fuck, what am I gonna say?
34:10Do you want me to come with you?
34:13Would you?
34:15Of course.
34:18Okay.
34:20Okay, okay.
34:35That is not gonna help.
34:38Okay, don't know.
34:39I play for Boston.
34:40I play for Boston.
35:09Yeah, maybe you should wait in the car.
35:12Okay, never mind, sorry.
35:27Hey, it's me, Shane.
35:31Hi.
35:32I left my charger at your place,
35:34and it's the old one that fits into my phone,
35:36and all the other chargers we have are newer, so...
35:38It's okay, Dad.
35:40I'm sorry you shouldn't have found out that way.
35:44Found out what, exactly?
35:48I'm gay.
35:50Which I was going to tell you soon.
35:52I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.
35:55Yeah, and this is Ilya,
35:58Rosanoff,
35:59but you already know that.
36:01Right.
36:03He's visiting, and we're, um...
36:06Lovers.
36:07No, Ilya, that's gross.
36:10But you hate him.
36:12No.
36:14I mean, I get that, but no,
36:16I actually, um...
36:18I love him.
36:23I don't know what this to be, I told you.
36:25Uh, I'm sorry.
36:29Can we just sit down, please?
36:34Here.
36:36I think we thought
36:38maybe you were gay.
36:41You did.
36:42I think we thought it was a certain thing possible.
36:45For how long?
36:47For a while, I guess.
36:49We both know you pretty well, Shane.
36:51I mean, what we did not suspect
36:53was that you were so friendly with Rosanoff.
36:57Ilya.
36:58Ilya, sorry.
37:00I know.
37:01It's a long story.
37:05When did this happen?
37:10Wait.
37:11The All-Star game.
37:13You two had so much chemistry.
37:18No, it was before then.
37:22Wow.
37:24Wow.
37:25Wow.
37:28So, when?
37:32Since our, uh, rookie season.
37:35Since your rookie season?
37:36No, it's not true.
37:37Since before that.
37:38Not helpful.
37:39Before?
37:39Summer before.
37:42So, you've been in love since...
37:44No.
37:44Oh, no.
37:45No, no, no, no.
37:46No.
37:46No, no, no.
37:47No, just, um...
37:50Just what?
37:53Um, just...
37:55Just...
37:56Just...
37:57Just...
37:57Just, Ilya.
37:57Oh.
37:58Okay.
37:59Just what?
38:01Lovers.
38:02Okay, no one is allowed to use that word again.
38:06Well, I would love a drink.
38:13And there were no nice men in Montreal?
38:15I don't know.
38:16Probably there were.
38:19Do your teammates know?
38:20No.
38:21Nobody knows.
38:23Hey, this could welcome.
38:25Thanks.
38:26I tried to buy the Russian stuff.
38:27Mm.
38:30You never, I mean, you, you never let him win, did you, Shane?
38:35Do you let Dad win the cards?
38:36I'd rather die.
38:37Same here.
38:38All right.
38:39So is your plan to, what, just keep doing this in secret until you both retire, or...?
38:49Probably, I don't know.
38:52Probably, yes.
38:54Oh, no, that's sad.
38:57I know, we know.
39:00We just can't come out and, like, announce it.
39:11Ilya, I gotta say, I'm surprised.
39:13You have such a reputation as a ladies' man.
39:17It's not untrue.
39:21Ilya likes both.
39:23Oh.
39:25It's true, I've been with many women, but...
39:29I have only been in love with one person.
39:35Same here.
39:36Only one.
39:49Just a minute.
40:04Hey.
40:05Hi.
40:25Mom, um, I need you to know that I did really try.
40:35I tried really hard, but, um, I just can't help it.
40:41I, I'm sorry.
40:43Oh, no, you have nothing, nothing to apologize for.
40:47Look at, look at me.
40:51Look at me.
40:59I'm sorry that I made you feel like you couldn't tell me.
41:14I, I'm so, so proud of you, okay?
41:24I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
41:40I love you.
41:42Oh, I love you too.
41:46So much.
41:54You okay?
41:57Yeah.
42:01All right.
42:02Okay.
42:05Okay.
42:06Okay, okay.
42:08Enough.
42:10All right.
42:11What's the plan?
42:17We need a statement prepared in case anything leaks.
42:19Something classy and simple.
42:21Mom.
42:21And I'm going to quietly reach out to the premium brands, or maybe just Reebok and Rolex and Speedo.
42:27They're going to be thrilled, I think, once they wrap their minds around this.
42:29There's a world of opportunity here, if they do it right.
42:32Mom, can we just take three steps back, please?
42:33I'm not going to come out or anything yet.
42:37I, we just want a future.
42:42I don't know.
42:45You play in Ottawa?
42:47Yes.
42:48We would be closer and with the charity.
42:51And you have no loyalty to Boston?
42:53Jesus, Mom.
42:54What?
42:54They drafted him.
42:55You would leave Boston for Shane?
42:58Yes.
43:00Mom?
43:01Loyalty is important.
43:03He's trying to be loyal to me, not Boston.
43:04Well.
43:05My mom cares a little too much about hockey.
43:07No, I see where you get it from.
43:09Have you talked to Scott Hunter?
43:11No.
43:11I did.
43:12You did?
43:13Yeah, briefly.
43:14After MLH awards in June.
43:17And what did he say?
43:19Nothing.
43:20I didn't tell him about Shane and me.
43:23But what he did, it was...
43:24Yes, he was very brave.
43:27He changed things for me, at least.
43:29Maybe for us.
43:34Shane.
43:37Shane.
43:40Okay, I'm just freaking out.
43:42I'll be okay in a second.
43:43Hey, hey, hey, hey.
43:46We're good here.
43:48My family is here.
43:50Your boyfriend is here.
43:53We're good here, okay?
43:57My boyfriend?
44:01I mean, yes.
44:02I think so, probably.
44:11Since rookie season.
44:13Summer before.
44:16I'll bring the chicken and some salad stuff.
44:19Pick up beer in town.
44:20Please text.
44:21Why?
44:22We'll just be there around five.
44:23Please text.
44:23We'll text.
44:24Get attention to your phones.
44:26Thank you for the pasta.
44:27Drive safely.
44:27I love you.
44:28Love you.
44:29Love you.
44:38I said saddle up, cowboy.
44:41I'm waiting for you.
44:42Why don't you give it up?
44:44Don't be another one.
44:46I'll find me one of us.
44:48Come on, come on, come on.
44:51We've got bad things to do.
44:55Baby, take me.
44:56Don't hesitate.
44:58With a girl like me, you better activate.
45:02Baby, I'm a tide away.
45:04Come on, before your grave.
45:06I want to do bad things with you.
45:10And then you'll fly away.
45:12Send me out.
45:13Don't let you try.
45:15Don't let me stop.
45:17In your arms, I'll start a war.
45:19We've all been here before.
45:22Matter of fact, I got you looking back.
45:24So let's go.
45:26I get what I want.
45:30I want what I see.
45:34I want to do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do,
45:40do.
45:40Bad things with you.
45:43I mean, oh my God, come on.
45:46I know you feel it too like summer's gone.
45:49So hot.
45:50You put your record on my panty's drop.
45:53And I don't want to stop playing your tune.
45:56Baby, I know you're not shy.
46:00Baby, take me.
46:01Don't hesitate.
46:03With a girl like me, you better activate.
46:07I'm a tide away.
46:10Coming for your grave.
46:11I want to do bad things with you.
46:16And then you'll fly away.
46:17Send me out.
46:18Don't let you try.
46:20Don't let me stop.
46:21In your arms, I'll start a war.
46:24We've all been here before.
46:27Matter of fact, I got you looking back.
46:30So let's go.
46:31I get what I want.
46:35I want what I see.
46:39I want to do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
46:45I want to do the bad things with you.
46:48I want to do the bad things with you.
