if you don't think about it, all it is is major theatrical porn- but if you actually sit there and listen, it has such a deep, metaphorical meaning, it leaves you like :O
i dont really understand this part of the play. what's happening? are they all having sex with each other or is it just fantasies and dreams? and is angel talking to collins when he says 'take me' sorry if they are stupid questions, i just dont really get it.
@txtexasgurl It's a song that encompasses all their separate sex lives- they're not all literally having sex with each other, but it's the same experience, good and bad.
And yes, Angel is. Or that's the way I've always interpreted it. 'Take me' as in 'Fuck me.'
I'm reading Anthony Rapp's book right now, and that's why I looked up this scene. It's actually a great book, and this whole production is, of course, amazing
When Maureen says "I think I missed, don't get pissed", she saying it to Joanne. It means she thinks she's skipped a period which in turn means she's been screwing around and could be in trouble in more ways than one.
Ohmygosh. I LOVEE this scene in RENT! I love Mark's line at the start of it. "Things are starting to heat up in new york" xD Wilson is just. . .amazing. <3 "CONTACT YES!" :) I sing this all the time. XD
Angel is saying take me, asking god to take him, and warning that today he dies of aids, tomorrow it may be you. meanwhile, the others are doing their own thing, sex, fighting, breaking up. collins lets them know that Angel has died. It is a metaphor, hence the white sheet; the other dancers represent the past involvements of them all; sleep with one, you sleep with all, how hiv can get passed around from person to person. the scene then moves to angels funeral. Larson was a genius!

after without you right before ill cover you reprise at the end when theyre all saying its over jesse says its over and that starts ill cover you reprise
i understand wuts going on in this scene but the one thing i dont get is wen Maureen says "i think i missed, dont get pissed." can sumone please tell me wut she means??!?! and is she saying it so Joanne? or mark?
when Maureen says "i think i missed" shes talking to joanne, it means that she missed while she was giving oral to joanne, she didnt get to the "best place" if you know what im talking about.
when maureen says "i think i missed, dont get pissed" shes talking to joanne. it means that she missed while she was giving oral to joanne. she didnt get to the best place where joanne could have like the ultimate pleasure or whatever. if you know what im talking about.
Could someone help me out here? I have only seen the movie, What exactly is Wilson/Angel doing under the sheet? I get the fact he's dying. But what exactly is going on?
Contact is a song in the Second act where every character is having sex with their counterpart and Angel has the solo in which he climaxes/dies...Because Angel releses Sexually and also realeases from the pain of dying at the end though everyone breaks up and it leads into "I'll Cover You (Reprise)" sung by Collins at Angel's funeral
Well there are two different theories one is that it also includes past sexual relationship so it could be with Maureen. another is that he's playing with himself. Without Jonathan Larson here to actually tell us...we kinda have to guess which sounds better.
Hi Okay..I know this is the part where Angle dies I get that part.But, I dont get what the rest of the cast is dong. I think I have a slight idea but, would anyone eplain...THANKS!
It's pretty much what you see, a big orgy on stage which pretty much is about sex and aids, and they all break up and Angel dies. Ther is actually a LOT going on in here. You really need to see the show. lol
do Angel and Collins break up? That bit always confused me coz I'm never sure if when Collins says "It's over" if he means he and Angel are over, or that Angel has died if you get what I mean!
when collins says "it's over" he's refering to angel dying. That's what the whole white sheet is supposed to symbolize too. That's why when everyone else says it they sound angry and Collin's just sounds sad.
basically it's what i disliked about the movie. Angel, as a character, is not supposed to die in a hospital, he's sensual, sexual, he's supposed to die in the orgy! that's why it's SO strong!
i saw RENT on broadway yesterday and it was awesome! I loved this scene, it was so emotional yet too funny. "I think I missed. Don't get pissed." LOL. And Angel's "Take me"'s were so emotional.
I understand why they didn't put this into the movie, but I think they should have at least have tried to make it a deleted scene.
Wow. I seen RENT last week in NYC. OMG.. I had only seen the movie version, I watched a couple of clips on here before. But while watching there live, OMG... This scene blew me away! I didn't expect it! It was so emotional (Angel's death)!! I'll never forget that scene!
gaahh i am not excited to have to watch this scene with my dad who is very strict about me seeing sexual stuff when we see this on Broadway on Saturday...
*raises hand* Yes,as a matter of fact I dooooo.I wondered what Mark was doing there when I heard him toward the end saying something Roger should've said. :/
Do you have ANY idea what he and/or Collins said in the beginning?I don't know what either of them said.
I don't think he was humping her. I think he was holding her, and just happened to be fidgeting her legs. ...Wow, that sounds stupid but it makes sense to me. Anyway. Yeah.
Adam is so cute in the beginning. Just saying.
And Wilson is flipping amazing, of course. :)
