For those who saw it, he was: the angry guy who wanted to punch the homophobic waiter. For those who didn’t: [Look for Ethan about 1:40 in](http://abcnews.go.com/WhatWouldYouDo/video/defends-gay-parents-10695494?&clipId=10695494&playlistId=10695494&cid=siteplayer). ---

> [@tdn](#): > > The guy sitting with the girl and drinking orange juice? Sounds right, but I’ll have to watch it again. The most obvious identifier: He has the switchblade necklace! I probably don’t really need that spoiler. ---

That’s got to make you (and the rest of his family) feel good. I didn’t see the program the other night, but whenever they air these scenarios and people step in to do the right thing or are even clearly agitated, I tear up like a stupid baby. ---

Nice! It is good to know that there are still some good kids out there in the big city. ---

I saw that episode—I can’t believe how over the top the actor who played the hyomophobic waiter was. I am shocked that there hasn’t been any fights or other assults resulting from the shooting of this show. ---

Did he get to talk with Marc Summers? ---

Good for your nephew for doing the right thing! I thought it was hilarious when they did the one with the bikes getting taken off their chains. When it was a white boy, people didn’t really care or do anything. When it was a black boy, everyone was all “call the police!” and getting involved. When it was a pretty blonde chick, not only did nobody try to stop her, a lot of men even helped her!
