In the True Directions orientation video which depicts homosexuality as a problem to be "fixed", Kelly is a girl shown to be a lesbian until "cured" by the institution. The orientation video shows that she eventually marries a man. Dolph, Clayton, Andre, and Joel are the male gay campers. Rock is the son of Mary Brown, the founder of True Directions. Rock is supposedly straight, but actually is a closeted gay man. Mike is supposedly an ex-gay man, who helps with the process of "curing" campers from their homosexuality. However, he is clearly shown to be still attracted to men; for example, when he stares at Rock with a lustful expression and tone of voice, he says to the campers: "Don't you see how sad and pathetic you all are, always wanting something you can't have?" Lloyd and Larry are a gay couple described as "ex, ex-gays". Before the events of the film, they were once campers at True Directions before they defected. They help the campers in the film to sneak out and go party at a gay bar, and also give advice about dealing with one's own sexuality. Lloyd and Larry let the ex-camper Dolph live with them when he is expelled from True Directions for having sex at the institution. (Jan (played by Katrina Phillips) is a girl mistaken for a lesbian because of her butch appearance, but she is actually straight.)	United States
