Frank walked down the steps of the Gallagher house, stopping to tie his shoe on the last step.

He glanced behind him at all the shoes, looking for a pair of his, and took one of the boys shoes.

He walked outside, with mismatch shoes, and attempted to pull back his hair, but his hair tie broke.

"Fucking- fuck." He said, slamming the broken hair tie down.

A car pulled up behind him, and Ian and Steve stepped out, with groceries.

"It's good. Yeah, I got it. There you go. All right. All right, listen up, everybody. Tommy from upstairs... shelled out for the, uh, pay-per-view here. And the cable." Kevin said, gesturing to Tommy, as he got up and everyone started cheering for him.

"Hey, hey. A hundred forty-nine fifty on my goddamn Visa... so pay up, you cheap bastards." Tommy said, as everyone started laughing.

"Right in here, guys. Right in here." A lady said, holding a hat down to everyone, as they put money in it.

Frank walked into the Alibi. "Billy. Drink?" He asked. "Have one. Come on."

"Mm-mm." Billy shook his head.

Frank looked around, and grabbed a glass, helping himself, and pouring a beer.

"Burgers coming through." Steve said, carrying burgers in his hands.

"Uh, Lip. Napkins." Fiona asked, turning on the TV.

"I can get it." Karen suggests.

"No, no, no. You sit." Lip said, gesturing to a chair.

"Hola amigos." Grace said, barging trough the door, with David. "Burgers!" She gasped, and sat next to Fiona. "Gimme one."

"Only ketchup." Steve said, passing a burger to Debbie.

"Make room." Veronica said, busting through the door, and sitting on the other side of Fiona. "Who are these two?" Veronica said, pointing to David and Karen.

"This is Karen." Lip announced.

"Hey, Karen. Nice top. What size are you?" Veronica said.

"Yeah, and this is David." Grace said, nodding to David.

"You look a bit on edge David...?" Veronica said.

"He's not used to the South side." Grace smirked.

"Shh! Shut up." Fiona said, hitting V, and gesturing to the TV.

All the men crowded around the TV at the Alibi, cheering at a wrestling game.

"Hey, bub? Hey." Frank said, to the guy in front of him, who was blocking his view. "Better door than window."

The man turned around only for it to be Eddie Jackson. "Gallagher." He said, head butting Frank.

Frank collapsed to the ground.

"Tell your boy Ian to keep his dirty adolescent prick out of my Karen." Eddie spat, and walked around Franks body.

Frank clutched his bloody nose, and drank his beer.

Frank walked into his house.

"You okay, Frank?" Steve asked.

"Jesus." Grace said.

"Hey. That my shirt?" Ian asked.

"Yeah." Frank said, sternly.

"Uh, i'm just asking." Ian backed away, as Frank got closer to him.

Frank got close to his face, and head butted it, just as Eddie did to him.

Ian groaned in pain, as Steve went up to Frank and pushed him. "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

"Jesus Christ, dad." Fiona yelled.

"I'll get the ice." Grace hesitated.

"You're drunk, Frank. Drunk." Steve yelled, as Veronica covered Carls ears.

"This is drunk?" Frank asked. "This isn't drunk. You wanna see drunk?" 

"Don't do this to your kids." Steve said, angrily.

"What are you a tough guys, Steve? You think you're a fucking tough guy." Frank asked, as Grace iced Ian's nose. "Because you look a premenstrual Filipino."

"Steve, go. Get out. Hey, just go." Fiona yelled, pushing Steve aside.

"He's shitting his pants. Pussy." Frank scoffed.

"You're pathetic, Frank." Steve shrugged.

"Get out now. I mean it." Fiona yelled, pointing to the door.

"Come on. Don't go. Come on. Puss, puss, puss." Frank chanted, as Debbie pushed Steve to the door. "You wanna say something, pussy?" He asked. "It's Mr. Joe-fucking-god-gift, the pussy." Frank yelled. "It's just a bloody nose. He's not dying."

"Really, Frank?" Veronica asked.

"Anybody notice that I'm bleeding?" Frank yelled.
