Elder Aaron’s Journey in “Latter Days”

Meeting Christian Markelli

Elder Aaron Davis, a young Mormon from Pocatello, Idaho, is sent to Los Angeles with three other missionaries to spread the faith. They move into an apartment next to openly gay party boy Christian Markelli and his roommate Julie, an aspiring singer. Christian makes a bet with his co-workers that he can seduce one of the Mormons, and soon comes to believe that Aaron, the least experienced missionary, is a closeted homosexual. Aaron and Christian become acquainted through several encounters in the apartment complex.

An Unexpected Connection

When Christian accidentally injures himself, Aaron helps him indoors and cleans his wound. Christian attempts to seduce Aaron, but the hesitant Mormon becomes upset by Christian’s remark that sex “doesn’t have to mean anything”. Aaron accuses him of being shallow and walks out. Worried that Aaron is correct, Christian joins a charity, delivering meals to people with AIDS. He gains new insights through a friendship with one of the beneficiaries. Aaron meets and befriends Lila, whose life partner has died, unaware of her connection to Christian.

A Heartfelt Reunion

Aaron’s fellow missionary, Paul Ryder, has a cycling accident. Returning to his apartment, a distraught Aaron encounters Christian, who tries to comfort him with a hug. Both men are overwhelmed by their feelings and end up kissing, failing to notice the return of Aaron’s roommates. Aaron is sent home in disgrace, leading Christian to confront Ryder, who is angry that Christian corrupted Aaron for no reason. Christian admits that he initially just wanted to win a bet, but says “it’s not about that” anymore. Seeing Christian’s distress, Ryder tells him that Aaron’s flight has a five-hour layover in Salt Lake City.

A Journey of Love and Forgiveness

Christian finds Aaron standing outside the airport terminal. Christian confesses his love, and despite his misgivings, Aaron admits his own feelings of love. With all flights canceled due to a snowstorm, Christian and Aaron spend an intimate night in a motel. When Christian awakes, he finds Aaron gone. Aaron’s pocket watch, a family heirloom, has been left behind. Christian returns to Los Angeles. In Idaho, Aaron is excommunicated by the church elders, led by his father, who is the stake president. Aaron is rejected by his father and scolded by his mother, who tells him that he must pray for forgiveness.

A Tale of Redemption

Christian locates Aaron’s home address and phone number. Aaron’s mother informs him that, “Thanks to you, my son took a razor to his wrists; thanks to you I have lost my son.” Believing Aaron is dead, Christian spends the next few days thinking continually about Aaron. Christian travels to the Davis home in Idaho, where he tearfully returns Aaron’s watch to his mother. After looking at the watch’s inscription, which mentions charity, she tries to go after Christian, but he has already left.

A Reconciliation and New Beginning

Julie writes a song based on Christian’s journal entry about the ordeal. The song prompts Aaron to return to Los Angeles in search of Christian. When a stranger answers the door to Christian’s apartment, Aaron is heartbroken, thinking that Christian has returned to his party boy ways and moved on. Having nowhere else to go, Aaron makes his way to Lila’s restaurant and begins to recount his journey to her. Christian walks into the dining room, and is overjoyed to see Aaron alive. They reconcile and later celebrate Thanksgiving with Christian’s co-workers. Lila tells everyone that they will always have, “a place at my table, and a place in my heart”.
