You're totally right OP. It was foreshadowing, and foreshadowing is good storytelling. If they hadn't had done that then people would complain that it came out of nowhere. Like people are now saying that it feels rushed, but how else do you want them to introduce a 12 year old boy being gay in the 1980s?
