Shameless 4X8: Hope Spring Paternal
Added 2024-05-07 21:00:03 +0000 UTCI'm very happy that Lip and Fiona have seemed to finally figure out their issues. We have enough problems in this family without the two of them being at odds as well. That said, I don't think what Lip had the kids doing this episode was any better than what Fiona was doing with Liam overdosed. Maybe he realized that and it's part of what made him bring Liam home.
It seems like Mickey might finally be willing say he likes Ian and not continually be a dick about it. He actually told people that he and Ian were together, so that's progress, I guess. Although, I don't really know why he agreed to marry Svetlana if he wasn't even going to care that she had the baby. That's the only reason he married her, but while she's giving birth, he's off with Ian.
Speaking of giving birth, Carol also has the baby and wants to keep it. And Veronica is basically totally cool with that. And she convinces Kevin he should be too. I so don't understand that. I mean, I get Carol wanting to keep it, but Veronica immediately agreeing and trying to persuade Kevin seems odd to me. She didn't put any thought into it at all!
So does this mean Carl can go back to school? I mean, Frank showed up, but neither of them apologized. Instead they basically told them it was good that Carl was bullying their kids.
I wonder how much money Sammi is gonna make in this crazy scheme? Plus, what are they supposed to do afterwards? Go into hiding? These people are gonna be pissed when they realize they don't actually get the house and they are totally gonna go after them for fraud (or whatever the charge is for attempting to sell a house you don't own). This seems like a terrible plan.
