"What the fuck's going on with you?" "One minute you're like Superman, running around making pancakes, taking pictures of the goddamn sunrise." "And the next thing, you want to cut somebody's throat." "I couldn't help but notice the, uh, schedule." "I synced it to your new phone." "The schedule, it's just-- it's-- it's not me."

"Chuckie, knock it off." "Watch TV." "I don't appreciate your tone." "Oh, well, um, you know, he's my grandson now too, so I've got to take some responsibility." "He's not your grandson." "He's your what, step-half-grandson maybe?" "And dad didn't even know you were married" " until an hour ago." " Let's see." "How about if we talk outside so we don't bother the kids?" " Okay." " We'll be right back." "Two months ago, he didn't know you existed." "He knew I existed." "And he didn't care." "I-I don't mean to be cruel." "But I think it's time for you to start thinking about your own life." " Like, where are you gonna live?" " Guys, watch out, please." "What?" "Wait." "What?" "You've been living at my house, eating my food, and selling my furniture." "With our new family, there just isn't enough room at the inn." "You're throwing us out?" "Well, we're going, all of us, to the adoption hearing at the reservation tonight." "And when we come back, I would appreciate it if you were no longer living at my house." "And I forgive you for selling the furniture." "Shit!" "Fuck!" "What?" "What?" " Now?" " Yep." "I haven't taken anything." "Leave it open." "You staying out of trouble?" "Yes." "And you going to your NA meetings?" "I'm not a drug addict." " That's not what I asked." " Yes." "And you're clean?" "Yes." "So I'm not gonna find nothing in that cup that makes me unhappy?" "Nope."

"Let me see." "Uh, shoulders and lapels." "Are we happy with these lapels?" "Is this the Armani?" "Paul Smith." " Let's try the Prada." " Okay." "Stop fidgeting." "Jesus Christ." "You'll wear it for years." "I feel a bit like, uh,Pretty Woman." "Pretty boy." " Kept boy." " Boy toy, then." "What, that's better?" "I want all those bitches at the sorority suicidal with envy." "Oh, that's what this is about." "Why not?" "Is there anything on earth more enjoyable than humiliating your peers?" "Go, go." "Okay." "Yummy." "Let's go." "Where's Ms. Johnson?" "You're with me."

"And he hasn't gotten out of bed?" "No, he's just sleeping." "I can't get him up." "I-I tried." "Yeah, so did I." "And what about before?" "What was he like?" "Before, he was fine." "He was happy." "He's staying up all hours of the night, dancing, telling fucking jokes." "He kicks my ass every day." "I can't keep up with him." "We've got to get ahold of Lip." "He should know." "Know what?" "What's wrong with him?" "Uh, depression, I think." "He-- he's depressed?" "What do you mean he's-- We all get fucking depressed." "How the fuck could we not, living around here?" "It's not that kind of depressed, okay?" "Look, I could be wrong, but it could be bipolar disease, like our mom." "Bi-- bi-- bi" " What?" "What the fuck is that?" "It's manic depression, Mick." "It's like high highs followed by low lows, over and over again." "We'll get him an appointment at the clinic, and we'll see what they say." "No, no, look." "He-- he's low." " We cheer him up." " It's not like that." "He may have to be hospitalized." "What do you mean, hos-- Like a psych ward?" "No fucking way!" "No fucking way!" "He's staying here." "He could end up suicidal." "Then we hide the knives until he perks up." "I can" " I can take care of him." "Okay, let me take care of him until he's better." "It-- it can be weeks." "It's mood swings, okay?" "It's almost impossible to handle." "Don't fucking tell me what's impossible!" "We're taking care of him here." "You, me, us." "His fucking family." "I have to get to a meeting, okay?" "Um, we'll call Lip, and we'll let him know what's going on." "Okay, come on." "He's not going to some fucking nut house." "You hear me?" "He stays here." "He's staying with me." "Hey." "Hey!" "You see a van parked here, bunch of kids living in it?" "It was here yesterday." "Yeah." "Yeah, they were here." "Must have left." "Good to see you." "The meeting's about to start." "After you." " Hi." "Hi." " Good morning." "Uh, excuse me?" "You're not allowed in Mr. Gallagher's room today." "What?" "Mrs. Gallagher has requested that you not be allowed in the room." "He's my dad." "She's concerned that your presence is upsetting to Mr. Gallagher." "Sheila!" "Sheila, get your fat ass out here!" "Please, I don't want to have to call security." " I'm just gonna" " I'm gonna fuck you up!" " Call security." " You fuck with the bull, you get an ass full of horns!" "Keep your voice down." "You can't keep me away from my dad."

"So now you have room for us at your house." "Let me see my father, you bitch." "No!" "I'm the one he's chosen to spend the rest of his life with." "You're just one lucky sperm." "Oh!" "Get her-- get her-- get her out." "She says I can't see my dad!" "Mrs. Gallagher." "I am so sorry to" "She just assaulted me!" "Everyone in this hospital!" "I was assaulted!" "Hi." "Hey." "What's going on out there?" "Catfight-- Sammi and Sheila." "Over what?" "You, I think." "Who's winning?" "Hard to tell." "Maybe the rent-a-cops." "You ready to get out of here?" "Absolutely." "Ladies, I need you to keep it down." "This is America, and in this country, people have a right to see their families." "Bye." "It's fine." "Okay, we're gonna work it out." "I'm just gonna go and see my dad." "Oh, no, God damn it." "Dad?" "Pops?" "Your dedication to nicotine is admirable." "What is it, five degrees?" "It's at least ten." "Bipolar, huh?" "Can't be sure." "But it looked painfully familiar." "We should have some of Monica's lithium somewhere." "It's not like she ever took it." "And I always worried it'd be me." "Oh, there's still time." "You know, I hear you could have your first psychotic break anytime in your teens or 20s." "Mental illness Russian roulette with Monica's DNA as the bullet." "Is alcoholism genetic?" "It's the nurture part of nature and nurture." "All about the environment you grow up in." "Oh, that's very encouraging." "Jesus." "Is this family ever gonna catch a break?" "Well, you're out of the pokey, and, uh, I passed my midterms." "That's great, good for you." "Barely, but I passed." "I bet you aced 'em." "College is a lot fucking harder than it looks." "You actually have to apply yourself." "Who exactly is Amanda?" "My, uh, roommate's ex-girlfriend, who I ended up with when she tried to blow me in my sleep." "Somebody can blow you in your sleep?" "Well, at some point, you wake up." "Is it getting serious?" "Well, it's certainly getting fucking weird." "She buys me shit." " Nice shit?" " Yeah." "Sounds like a keeper." "It was me, Lip." "Not Frank." "Not Monica." "Not nature." "Not nurture." "It was all me." "I'm 23." "It can't be about how much they screwed us up anymore." "It sounds kind of like AA." "Yeah." "You been drinking the big book Kool-Aid?" "A bit." "Attendance is a condition of my parole." "You're not perfect, Fiona." "None of us are." "Looks good, George." "Thanks."

"You see me?" "You see me standing here?" "You lost, asshole!" "I'm alive, motherfucker!" "Me, Frank Gallagher!" "Alive." "Alive." "Little nip won't hurt you." "Are you gonna go in?"
