Gavin MacIntosh, Part 2: From gay middle schooler to car salesman to OnlyFans hunk

This was a big deal in 2013: On the first season of The Fosters, a soap opera about the "gloom, despair, and agony" befalling a family of fostered and adopted kids, Jude (Hayden Byerly) starts a romantic relationship with his classmate Connor (Gavin MacIntosh).  They were both thirteen, making them the youngest out gay kids on television at the time. 

Homophobes squealed with outrage -- when they kissed, Youtube put an age advisory on the clip.  Gay fans kept a careful watch to see if unconscious  or conscious homophobia in the writer's room would lead to the couple being "punished" with more than their fair share of tragedy.  

Turns out that lots of horrible things happened to them, but nothing worse that the horrible things happening to the other characters -- this was a show about agony, after all. 

About halfway through Season 3 in 2016, Connor announced that he was moving to California to live with his mother, and Gavin MacIntosh left the series. 

The bio of Jude on the fan wiki ends abruptly, but according to Wikipedia, he eventually gets another boyfriend and breaks up with him, reuniting with Connor in a 2021 episode of the spin-off Good Trouble.

So, is Jude now a 19th century Russian prince?

Fans spent a lot of time on social media speculating about why Gavin left.  Was tired of the constant agony his character was going through?  Squabbling over his contract?  Planning to go to college?  He did attend Long Beach City College in 2016-17.

Whatever the reason, Gavin finished up guest spots on Bosch (2014-2016) and Bones (2016-17), and then retired from acting.

Previous: Gemstones Episode 4.3: Keefe does stuff with the Devil.  So does Eli.  With a pole dancer's d*ick and the Groundskeeper's bottom

In the first part of the episode, Kelvin has night terrors and a feeling of impending doom as his last safe place is destroyed, the siblings worry that Eli is schtupping Aimee-Leigh's best friend, and BJ (Tim Baltz, right)  falls on his head during a pole dancing contest.

 Is BJ Dead?: The family gathers at the hospital.  Everyone wonders why Eli and Lori arrived at the same time, suspecting that the two are having s*x.  Maybe focus on the crisis?

A doctor appears and tells Judy "I'm very sorry."  BJ isn't dead, but he's paralyzed, and will have to use a wheelchair.  Judy cries.  "What are we going to do?"

The Quail Hunt: Eli, Jesse, and some members of the Cape and Pistol Society in ridiculous floppy-hat uniforms shooting quail.  I don't see the significance of this scene, except to contrast with the Civil War scenes in the trailer.  

How Many Gay Gemstones? Cut to the Cape and Pistol headquarters, where a minister congratulates Jesse on his brother being nominated for Top Christ Following Man of the Year.   Rival megachurch pastor Vance Simkins (Stephen Dorff), one of the Season 3 antagonists, has also been nominated, and complains: "I guess your homosexual brother is the one with the juice nowadays." 

This doesn't upset Jesse, so Vance tries again.  "I heard your brother-in-law fell out of the sky...Word on the street is that he was stripping..how many homosexuals does that make in your family now?"

"Two," Jesse answers.  "The same number of dead parents in your family."

Wait -- he can't be agreeing that BJ is gay, so who is the second "homosexual"?  Keefe?  But he and Kelvin aren't married.  

Gideon?  Remember, Aimee-Leigh admitted Scotty to the family after his death, and Gideon hasn't expressed any interest in anyone since.  Maybe he's still in mourning.

Vance tries again: "You're losing in our rivalry due to your poor character."  You're not exactly a saint yourself, Vance Baby.   His churches have turned into bathrooms, "with that filth your brother's been preaching. It's what your church is becoming known for.  Does that bother you?"

Of course Kelvin's success bothers Jesse, but not for that reason, so he counters that he is succesful too.  And the ministers start to circle.
