OOfficer

Ian Gallagher? Mikhailo Milkovich?

Ian

Yeah, I'm Ian Gallagher. Can I help you, Officer?

OOfficer

Got some bad news for you. Your PO was found dead this morning. Paula's dead? Fell out of a third-floor window. Detectives want you both to come down to the station today, make statements.

Ian

Why? We don't know anything about that.

OOfficer

Whenever a PO dies, detectives interview all the parolees, especially if the death was suspicious.

Ian

Suspicious?

OOfficer

Well, people usually open a window before they jump out it. See you at the station. Bring Milkovich.

Ian

[In backyard lane] Mickey? Mickey! Hey, come on out. Cops are gone.

The fսck they want?

Ian

Paula's dead.

[Chuckles] No shit. Is it Christmas?

Ian

It's not funny. Someone threw her out a window.

You kidding me? That's extremely funny. There's, like, a fսcking verb for that.

Ian

I- I'm serious, Mickey. They want us to go into the station for questioning. You know anything about this?

Nah. fսck, no. I didn't kill her. Wait. Do you know something about this? No. That what you're telling me?

Ian

Of course not.

Got it. Good strategy.

Ian

Wait, what stra- I- I didn't kill her.

Little bit, you did, though.

Ian

No. Not little bit. I did zero murdering of my PO last night, Mickey.

Okay.

Ian

I'm not the one who came home late without any sort of explanation.

I did explain. I was with my dad.

No. You didn't explain why you were with your dad.

Ian

Exactly. Okay, so, to be clear, you didn't kill her, or, you know, you "didn't" kill her"?

Why are you putting shit in weird fսcking air quotes?

Ian

Because I didn't fսcking kill her.

Okay. Me neither. We both know what we know we know... that we know. [Mickey starts walking away]

Ian

What the fսck does that mean? Hey. Where you going?

[Scoffs] Wouldn't you like to know?

Ian

I- I- I would. I would like to know!

[Gets off from Byron's motor scooter] Oh, hey. Why don't you get out of here? I'll call you later. [Grabs his rear and waves him off]

Ian

Who's that?

Byron. Cute, huh? Super tight asshоlе.

Ian

[Mickey walks past him into house] You're a top now?

Verse. Who knew?

TNTV news reporter

Next up, a Florida man was found dead today, facedown in the lobster tank of a Tampa grocery store.

OOopie

[Setting down bowls of cereal] Here you go. A proper breakfast. The sugar in this cereal will kill you. In your case, however, I suspect that your lifestyle will kill you before your diet does.

Ian

Ah. Ah.

Was that Mickey this morning?

Ian

Yup.

Where's he been?

Ian

With a twink named Byron.

Twink?

Ian

You know, like Ms. Del Rey's kid. Yoga pants and glitter. Eh, not always. But yeah, sure.

So if you tell someone you're not marrying them, that means they can sleep with other people?

Ian

No. But Mickey's emotional IQ is lower than Carl's actual IQ.

Shit. You're fսckеd, dude.

Ian

Nah, he'll work it out of his system and we'll talk it out like adults. It'll be fine.

[Comes in door with Lip] Hang on to your wallets, everyone. Lip is here.

OOopie

Oh, there's my gorgeous niece. Prettier- mwah- than Megyn Kelly and smarter too. Oh, objectified by America and sexually harassed by your bosses? It's every girl's dream. Megyn Kelly? A blonde news host.

She thinks Santa's white.

He's not?

No.

OOopie

Yes, honeybun!

Hey, did I hear a girly bike pull up this morning?

Ian

Mickey.

He's dating a twink now.

Oh, so you leaving him at the altar, that's become a thing, huh?

Ian

I- I didn't leave him at the altar.

LLLiam and Lip

Yes, you did.

Ian

I mean... It was City Hall. We were only getting married to outsmart the cops.

OOopie

You made the right decision. Marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman.

What's that smell? Self-righteousness.

No. The air smells...clean.

Where is Frank? Haven't seen him in a while.

Enjoy it while it lasts. He'll be back to stinking up the place in no time, right? [Sets do Freddie in kiddie pen] Oh, there you go.

Jesus Christ. You're never gonna fix the fսcking thing, Byron. No one that rides a Vespa can fix anything.

Ian

Something happen to your little bike thingy?

BByron

Yeah. It's a Vespa, and... it stopped working all of a sudden.

Ian

Oh, weird.

What the hell are you doing here?

Ian

I came to drop off some of the stuff you left at my place.

That it?

Ian

And I was hoping that we could talk. In private.

You know, anything you got to say to me, you can say in front of the... love of my life, Byron.

Ian

Mickey. Okay. It was a mistake coming. [Turns to walk away]

BByron

Yeah. Hey, Ian, you want to come check out a show tomorrow? [Ian turns to walk back]

Jesus Christ. Read the fսcking room, Byron.

Ian

Show?

BByron

Yeah. It's the Imperial Mammoth. I don't know if you've heard about them. They're- they're, like, my favorite band right now.

Ian

Wait. Wait, yeah, yeah. They're the, uh, the hipster shit with the suspenders and the- the harp and all that, huh? Yeah, you're going to that?

BByron

I can get you on the list, too. I mean, I don't know if you need a plus- one or whatever-

Nah, no. He don't need a plus-one. Trust me, he's got a lot of, uh, what'd you say, "personal work" you needed to do before you'd be ready to play the field?

Ian

No. No. Uh, actually, I just took a page out of your playbook and attached myself to the first swinging dіck I saw. We barely know each other, but, pfft... man, it has been a fairy tale so far. It's actually why I came here is, uh... Looks like we both moved on, so no reason for things to be awkward, right?

Congrats.

Ian

Yeah, it all happened so fast, but when you know, you know. Right?

Ian

[Before flashback scenes] Ah, you wanna see what happened last week?

No, no, you know what? Fuck- Get outta here. We're not tellin' you sh¡t. Go- go, go, go.

Ian

Jesus, Mick.

Shoulda watched the last time.

[Pacing around outside Gallagher residence] Mickey! I know you're in there, you fսck¡n' homo! Hey, Mick, You faggy fɑggоt! You're never gonna marry that Gallagher queer, you hear me? Mickey!

Ian

Hey, your dad's here.

Hey, you want a Pride parade?! Yeah. How 'bout I slice off your pansy dicks and stick 'em on a fսcking float?! [Mickey walks out door] I got a little conversion therapy for you! You suck a dіck, you die.

Would you shut the fսck up?! You're annoying the shit outta everybody!

Well, if it isn't the little shirt lifter. Just want you to know- you marry a man, Imma put a fսcking bullet in your head! Simple as that!

Why wait, bitch?! I'm standing right here, Charlottesville. [Terry draws his firearm and Mickey draws his] Oh, look at that- we must shop at the same gun show.

The fսck happened to you?!

You know what they say- the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

It does if it lands on a dіck!

Aw, please, stop. I get it, all right? You're proud a me.

You must really love cock.

I definitely love one.

Don't say I didn't warn ya, cocksmoker. [Walks past Mickey, shoulder bumping him]

Good talk, Pops.

Ian

So when you moving to Milwaukee?

I don't know.

Ian

You don't sound very excited about it.

Yeah, well... it is Milwaukee. Free house, though, right? Yeah, I mean, it's a nice house. Nice neighborhood. Yard. Well, damn. Jackpot. Saw an actual birdhouse with birds in it. Uh, not drսg. Birds.

Morning.

Ian

So, how's your dad? You know, don't think he's gonna be my best man.

Hey, what's up, punk? Ready for school?

Can't go to school until Frank signs a form.

What form?

Ian

That says I live here.

Just drop out. I can't drop out. I'm ten.

Give it to me. I'll sign it.

Gotta be a parent.

I can fake Frank's signature.

Ian

So can I.

Same here.

School says that he has to sign it in person.

Ian

Well, you know where Frank is?

Living with some lady up in Glencoe. He drives a Rolls Royce.

Unbelievable!

Ian

Oh, good for him. Anyone want to go with me?

LILip, Ian and Mickey

No.

Mickey's the bride?

Ian

Nope. Groom.

So you're the bride.

Ian

No. Also a groom.

Who's wearing the white tux?

Ian

Mickey.

Take your meds yet?

Ian

Yes.

Gonna be a stressful day.

Ian

Got it.

You picking those up?

Ian

Yeah.

Frank walking you down the aisle?

Ian

Grooms, remember?

Is he coming?

Ian

God, I hope not.

He's in Glencoe.

Ian

Great. I hope he stays there.

Hey. I gotta go out for a bit. You take your meds yet? It's gonna be a stressful day.

Ian

Yes. First thing.

All right. Hey, we gotta meet at the Bamboo Lotus at two for photos.

Ian

Okay. Got it.

Hey, how much did these tuxes cost?

Ian

Um, Mickey rented them at some fancy place downtown.

Where's Mickey getting all the money for this?

Ian

Savings, he says.

[Scoffs] "Savings"?

FMFlashback Mickey

[Bursts into a room full of underwear-clad women in a drug operation] On the floor, mοthеrfսckеr!

Ian

I don't really wanna know.

Father Pete marrying you?

Ian

Father Pete's Catholic. Pope won't let him marry gay people.

But Father Pete's gay. Lives in the rectory with the organist with the nipple ring.

Wait. The organist at Saint Sebastian's got a nipple ring?

Ian

Reverend Sally's doing the ceremony. She's Episcopalian. They'll marry anybody.

[Referring to shoes Liam is holding] Yeah, those are nice, right?

Mm-hmm. [Mickey and Ian kiss]

[Repeatedly] Dress.

No, sweetie. Hey, the wedding isn't till this afternoon, okay?

Please, Mommy. Now.

What is she on about?

She wants to wear her flower girl dress again.

Why the hell not? She's only gonna wear it once.

[Chuckles] Okay, sweetie. Go on.

Yay!

Uh, so... about last night.

Mm. [Sirens wailing distantly] Yeah. [Both chuckles] Cool. So... We gotta be at the Bamboo at nine for the flower delivery. And then the caterers are delivering the chairs and shit at ten.

So... You think your uncle's serious about shooting Mickey?

Serious as a heart attack. But he probably won't do it at the wedding. Too many witnesses. [Answers phone] He'll wait till Mickey's alone somewhere or walking to the L or... Holy sh- shit.

What?

It's on fire!

What's on fire?!

The Bamboo Lotus! It's on fire! Dude, it's on fսcking fire!

Ian

Fսck is going on?! Debs.

[Bursts out front door with Debbie, Ian, Mickey and Carl observing into smoke billowing in distance] Oh... fսck.

What the hell's going on?

What is that?

The Bamboo Lotus.

What?

The wedding place?

It's on fire.

Ian

Terry.

What do you think.

Motherf*****.

Ian

S***.

F***. Mickey.

Ian

[Following Mickey is walking out of house with shotgun] Mickey!

Terry Milkovich! You fսcking pig fսckеr!

Ian

Mickey!

Jesus, Mick!

I'm coming for you, you son of a bitch! What the fսck, Sandy?!

Give me the fսck¡ng gun, Mick! [Mickey fires off a shot that shatters van rear window]

Ian

Oh, shit. Ow! Shit!

Fucking...

Ian

Get the cuffs. You done? No! You gonna make me hit you again?

Fսck you, Gallagher!

Ian

Now are you done?

Yeah. Yeah. Shit.

Ian

Hey, hey, hey, birthday Franny. Hey, look what I got you from work. They let us keep stuff if it's past its expiration date. There's so much stuff that just gets thrown away into a dumpster.

Oh, great job, man. Free old cereal.

Ian

[Carl comes in door] 5-0!

Oh, fuck, it's the cops!

Hey, I'm unarmed! Don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Ha, ha, ha, very funny, assholes. Now, if you'll excuse me, Imma go load these bad boys up with armor-piercing rounds so I can keep the mean streets safe for fuck-heads like you guys. Watch out, Chicago! You're going down!

[Ian and Mickey are making love with Ian on top]

Ian

Take it, you dirty convict.

Thought you weren't gonna fuck me until I got a real job, huh?

Ian

Oh, I got my eyes closed, pretending you're a Jonas Brother.

Which one?

Ian

Uh, Joe.

Fuck you. I'm totally Nick.

Ian

[Mickey pushes Ian off him] What the...

[Gets on top of Ian] Call me Nick, you Jonas-loving slut.

Ian

Whoa, hey. The fuck you doing?

I'm gonna get you pregnant.

Ian

Come on. This isn't how we do it.

Well, it's not how we normally do it. Been watching a lot of prison porn. Kinda feel like making you my bitch.

Ian

I'm not your bitch.

Well, when I bottom, I power bottom, so even then, you're totally my bitch.

Ian

And we're done.

Oh, come on.

Ian

Where you goin'?

Ian

To whack off in the shower.

Hey, look. Our new neighbors came to welcome us, even my pansy former son and his stink-dick boyfriend.

I guess the city must've made good on their threat to condemn our old house. That or the meth lab caught fire again.

Well, what are they doing here, though?

Terry's been banging the lady who owns this place for a couple of years. Calls it his plan B.

Ian

Mrs. McCurdy? She's, like, 90.

Gotta do what you gotta do, man.

Ugh. What's that smell?

That's the stench of abject poverty, son.

Sickening, isn't it?

Actually, I think it might be those chickens.

Oh, no, those ain't chickens. Those are cocks. Like, for cockfighting?

Fighting chickens?

They like it. If they don't die. It's natural for 'em. You know, it's fun.

We have to move. I don't wanna be the reason for the next Black Lives Matter march. I'll get Trayvon Martin-ed for sure if we stay here.

Ian

[A man is randomly firing off a kalashnikov assault rifle] Jesus!

TTarget

Ow!

Ian

Why's he shooting random shit?

[Laughs] Aw... He's playing "I Spy, You shoot."

Ian

"I Spy, You shoot"?

It's a kids' game. Yeah, kid says, "I spy with my little eye that red stop sign," or whatever, and then the adult... shoot the stop sign. Get off your fucking high horses. Anybody here feel like they're the product of good parenting, raise your hand.

Okay, I don't have time for this shit. I gotta get Franny ready. Where is Franny?

Fuck it, just dump the used motor oil in the yard.

[Goes down stairs to Ian eating cereal watching Harley Quinn on TV] Hey, what you doin' today?

TJTV Joker

"It's me, dickhead," or just "me, dickhead"?

Yo... Ian.

Ian

I'm just trying to find the strength to get off the couch and search for another minimum-wage, dead-end, soul-crushing job to appease my parole officer.

Yeah, well... what if I offer you a job?

Ian

As what, getaway car driver?

Come on, weed money security for the Alibi. It's your lucky day, bitch. Come on.

Ian

Yeah, thanks but no, thanks.

Fuck you. Why not?

Ian

I'm not doing anything illegal.

Weed's legal now. Look, stop eating your weight in Froot Loops. Go get dressed. Go on.

Ian

I don't think it's a good idea for us to work together.

Oh. Oh, oh. Well, let's get this shit straight, then, 'cause it's not "workin' together." You're workin' for me, all right? I'm the boss.

Ian

No, thanks.
