Vulture sets it up<\/a>: \u201cIn the finale, Frank (Danny DeVito) is trying to convince Mac to prance on the gang\u2019s gay<\/a> pride parade float, but Mac isn\u2019t feeling it. In his own way, Frank tries to help: \u201cI never really got you and, to be honest, now that you\u2019re gay<\/a> I get you even less. Nothing against it, I just don\u2019t get it.\u201d Nevertheless, he vows to help Mac find his pride, which involves coming out of the closet to his imprisoned father, Luther (Gregory Scott Cummins). But Mac can\u2019t open up to his father, at least, not with words. Which is a good thing because if he did, it would sound something like what he threw at Frank when he tried to explain his internal struggle: \u201cThere\u2019s like this storm inside of me and it\u2019s been raging my whole life, and I\u2019m down on my knees, and I\u2019m looking for answers, and then God comes down to me and it\u2019s a very hot chick and she pulls me up and we start dancing.\u201d That sounds like typical Mac nonsense, but the surprise comes when Mac ultimately manifests his internal musings into a full dance number that he performs in prison for his father, Frank, and the other inmates.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Mac has gone from heavy to \u201ccomically jacked\u201d as AV Club notes, and now we know why<\/a>: \u201cIn this week\u2019s season finale<\/a>, it was revealed that the reason Mac is in such good shape is that he\u2019s been preparing\u00a0an elaborate modern dance piece<\/a>\u00a0in order to express his emotional turmoil to his imprisoned father. Recently,\u00a0Vulture<\/em><\/a>\u00a0got the inside story on this breathtaking surprise performance, which apparently\u00a0took months of work and planning to make happen. First, in order to get into the shape necessary to pull this off,\u00a0McElhenney worked with celebrity trainer Arin Babaian<\/a>, who gained notoriety working with Channing Tatum on\u00a0Magic Mike<\/em>. Once he was in good enough shape to dance for two hours a day, he reached out to choreographers Alison Faulk and Leo Moctezuma, and together they crafted the emotional modern routine that McElhenney would ultimately perform alongside professional ballerina Kylie Shea.\u201d<\/p>\n The post Mac Comes Out as Gay to His Father in Stunning \u2018It\u2019s Always Sunny in Philadelphia\u2019 Dance Sequence: WATCH<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad Gay News<\/a>.<\/p>\n
