Quotes 

  • Fiona Gallagher : [Fiona rings Steve, as she walks through the snow] 

    Steve : [Steve is driving his car through a car wash]  Hello?

    Fiona Gallagher : If that wasn't bullshit, what was I wearing?

    Steve : Huh?

    Fiona Gallagher : First time you saw me, if that wasn't a lie.

    Steve : Black top with gold trim, black shiny jeans, thin shoes - no straps - sandals. With your hair pinned high. Dangly gold earrings that made me smile.

    [flashbacks of Fiona dancing in a nightclub] 

    Steve : . A big watch - too big - so it slid down your arm. It looked great. And you were dancing next to a red haired girl in a green dress.

    Fiona Gallagher : [Fiona sits down on a park bench]  Yeah, yeah. Jenna. It was Jenna's birthday. So you were - you were watching her. She's a lot better looking than me.

    Steve : You think so? Really?

    Fiona Gallagher : Yeah, so how come you're not stalking Jenna?

    Steve : Because you - you think like that, and Jenna doesn't. Jenna dances for an audience. You dance like there's no-one else in the room... Your life's not simple, Fiona, and you can't stop it from showing, because you're no fake, you're not lost, you don't need finding. This whole city belongs to the Jenna's, but I'm sick of them. I swear, Fiona, you're nothing like anyone I've ever met. You make me want to enjoy my life again... Are you there? Fiona?

    Fiona Gallagher : [Fiona is silent, listening. Shot cuts to Justin driving his car across town and running for the subway, trying to find Fiona. He runs onto the platform just as the train is leaving. Once the train leaves, Justin sees Fiona on the other platform. They meet at the bottom of the stairs and find each other. They kiss] 

  • [first lines] 

    Frank Gallagher : Nobody's saying our neighborhood is the Garden of Eden. Hell, some people say God avoids this place altogether. But it's been a good home to us, to me and my kids, who I'm proud of, 'cause every single one of them reminds me a little bit of me. Fiona, my rock, huge help. Has all the best qualities of her mother, except she's not a raging psycho bitch.

    Fiona Gallagher : [handing her kids a Kleenex]  Blow.

    Frank Gallagher : Lip, smart as a whip. Straight As and the honor roll - boy's definitely going somewhere.

    Cop : [chasing Lip]  You, come back! Stop!

    Frank Gallagher : Ian, industrious, conscientious, ambitious, incredible work ethic. Don't have a clue where he got that from. Wants to be a paratrooper. Knows how to disembowel an enemy with a roll of dimes and an old gym sock.

    Frank Gallagher : Carl. Uh, I don't really know that much about Carl. Oh! Loves animals. Always dragging home some poor stray he found, taking them up to his room.

    Carl Gallagher : [holding a cat and a blowtorch] 

    Frank Gallagher : Ah, Debbie. Sent by God. Total angel. Raises money for UNICEF year-round, some of which she actually turns in.

    Frank Gallagher : Liam, going to be a star. I'm no biologist, but he looks a little bit like my first sponsor. He and the ex were close.

    Frank Gallagher : Kev and Veronica, fantastic neighbors. There's nothing they won't do for each other. Or *to* each other. That didn't hurt half as much as I thought it would. I never realized how little sex I was having till V and Kev moved next door.

    Frank Gallagher : And me, Frank Gallagher, father, teacher, mentor, captain of our little ship. We may not have much, but all of us, to a man, knows the most important thing in this life. We know how to fucking party!

    [police cars rush onto the property] 

    Frank Gallagher : No!

  • Fiona Gallagher : What's the one thing that we needed? One word? One thing?

    Steve : Sterilization?

    Fiona Gallagher : Continuity. Continuity. Con-tin-uity.
