Brian tries to lure Michael out of suburbia and back to Babylon by throwing a super heroes themed night at Babylon. In another story ripped from the headlines, HIV positive Hunter bashes his head at his swim meet and Callie\u2019s parents cause chaos by screaming out that he has AIDS. Debbie begins her life of leisure after retiring from the diner, only to find herself right back in the diner to solve Loretta\u2019s problem with her husband. Oh, and Ted has plastic surgery finally.  \u201cHard Decisions\u201d was directed by Kelly Makin, one of my favorite Queer as Folk directors. This is his ninth of eleven episodes. I think my favorite Kelly Makin episode was season three\u2019s \u201cThere\u2019s Nothing Noble about Being Poor.\u201d  That was an Ethan Gold episode. It first aired in the US on Jun 5th, 2005. It was written by Michael MacLennan, his 12th of 14 episodes. Most recently he wrote season four\u2019s \u201cThe Snake in Paradise.\u201d That was the bug chaser episode.
