Guidance counsellor and Liam in “Unfinished Business”

[Liam enters office] Sit down. We don't have current proof of residency on file for you.

Liam

So?

So... how are we supposed to know you ain't committing fraud so you can go to this school?

Liam

You think someone would commit fraud to attend this shithole?

My job is tied to how much paperwork is completed and how many files are current, so if your dad, Francis Gallagher, could just bring us a copy of his valid state-issued ID.

Liam

[Scoffs] He doesn't have a valid state ID.

Okay, then copies of two utility bills in his name. All right, then he's gonna have to come in and sign this form attesting to his residence. If we don't get this, I'll have to remove you from school while we investigate this as a fraud case.

Liam

A vacation from this school? What's the downside?

Any student removed from school triggers an automatic review by CPS. See the downside of a month or two in a state-run group home?
