Shameless · Season 1, Episode 15

Paul, Frank and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Frank walks up to a campaign stop of a mayoral electoral candidate while at a bus stop]

PPaul

Vote Paul Lashmet for a better Chicago. Hope I can count on your vote. Nice to meet you.

[To a young mother with a baby crying] Can't you shut the baby up?

WWoman

I could shove her up your ass and see if that does it.

You need to learn respect for your elders.

WWoman

You need to learn to not be a total dickwad.

I have a plan to put chicago back to work. Hey. Hey. Over here. I know you can hear me, Mr. Give-me-your-vote! You want to know what's wrong with this city? You want to know what doesn't work? My wife and I got married after three weeks of dating, and she turned out to be a bipolar-drug-addict--easy who left me alone with six kids to raise, while my domestic partner, Mr. Christopher Collier, is a clean and sober, hardworking citizen of this country. I think he deserves the same rights as a woman who would abandon her children.

PLPaul Lashmet

Thank you, sir. And I will consider your situation.

Don't you turn your back on me. Oh, don't you worry. I'm a citizen of this country. I live in this city. My partner works for this city. But because we're not married, which the law doesn't even allow, I might add, I am not allowed to share in his insurance benefits. Which means for me, it's stand in the line At the free clinic or suffer. That's not only unfair and unchristian, it's flat out un-american. I'm a citizen. Where are my equal rights? Fix that, Mr. I-want-to-be-mayor. [Frank's bus goes on without him] Fuck.
