Shameless · Season 1, Episode 15

Tami and Lip in “Unfinished Business”

[Pulls open shower curtain of Lip ablutions] Hey, you seen this? Jesus! It's the hospital bill. Childbirth, emergency surgery, ICU...

How much?

Thirty-six hundred.

Wow.

That's after insurance. I mean, how are we gonna pay this? [Hands Lip a towel and he sighs] Here.

That's easy. We're not. We already brought him home. What are they gonna do? Take him back?

Well, they delivered our baby and saved my life.

Yeah, and that was their choice. They didn't give me the option of leaving Fred in the oven or letting you die on the operating table.

So you would've let me die?

I mean, if I knew it was gonna cost us four grand...

...yeah, maybe. [Chuckles] Look, we have to pay this.

Tami, no, we don't.

Isn't not paying your bills stealing?

No. Charging us money while your life is on the line, that's extortion. Right? Hmm. We're, uh, Robin Hooding, you know? We're stealing from the rich, giving to the poor.

You're not Robin Hood.

Yeah, but I'm poor.

So, what, so you steal stuff?

Sometimes.

Like what?

[Chuckles] I don't know. It's a long list.

Okay, well, like, uh, food from the grocery store?

Yeah, like food from anywhere.

Money?

[Sigh] That a real question?

What-cars?

No. But, uh, never say never.

Wow.

"Wow" what?

No, you're just... exactly the role model I always wanted for my kid.
