So some predictions I have

Fiona is pregnant and not sure if it's jimmy or Gus kid
The teachers husband is the guy who paid lips tuition. (Teacher said she also called finicial aid)
Ian is going to kill himself to get written off the show

I agree with your first two predictions. I doubt Ian will kill himself.

It's been confirmed that SOMEONE will be pregnant before the season's end, right? Because if it's not Fiona I really have no idea who's left. Debbie? I doubt it.

I highly doubt the husband paid for it. Unless the topless maid service thing was a ruse for some reason, I'm guessing he is also a professor.

No I think the truth would be closer to Chuckie. :v:

If we're talking personality then goons are most definitely Chuckie. But as far as storylines go, it's pretty much a guarantee that more goons have had to do work study, struggle with financial aid, realize they have to try harder in college than in high school, etc. than get busted for muling a felonious amount of heroin.

Maybe Mandy comes back pregnant. Wasn't her being written off because she got a movie role? Debbie would be kind of out there. And Fiona would hamper the show a bit I think.

I doubt they'd kill off Ian. Would be too much for the show to come back from. Maybe they'll have him and Mickey start fresh across the country like they did with Karen and Jody.

It was kinda of sad to see Frank throw Carl under the bus. Since out of the original 6 kids Carl was the only one who gave a poo poo Frank was dying last season. And as somebody mentioned Frank took a jail sentence for Carl when they stole stuff from the foster parents apartment. But it does fit it with Frank is and will always be an scummy rear end in a top hat. As far as the pregnant rumour I think it will be Fiona with a big who's the daddy thing|? Or it could be something from left field like Monica coming back since we haven't seen her for a few seasons. Hell I would even prefer Mandy or Amanda over Debbie (producers just please no =(.)

Debbie has a boyfriend now and her arc since last season has been about losing her innocence so it wouldn't be totally out there

I don't buy the idea that Carl's going to be "running" juvie given his floundering with the gang earlier and the fact that this prison doesn't exactly seem to be a minimum security white collar resort.

Back when Carl was just a goofy background character Fiona told Monica that he won a science fair, but I don't see this Carl doing that.

Do they actually start white power gangs that early?

They do, and also here is a fun stat from the AB Wikipedia page:
"According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the gang makes up less than 0.1% of the prison population, but it is responsible for up to 30% of murders in the federal prison system."

At this point I'm starting to think why are you even here sammi? Just to gently caress everything up?

E: I understand her point of view but my hands flying up everywhere at that scene. Ian really had nothing to do with any of her situation at all.

When Sammi was being nice and treating Ian's hand I was like oh well maybe she has found someone new to latch onto and mother in her psyco kind of way. should of figured it was a sham but I still went "What the gently caress Sammi!" out loud when poo poo went down with the MP. Now I am wondering if Micky doesn't straight up kill her before the end of the season.

As far as wondering who maybe pregnant before the end of the season they really built it up that it will be Debbie but things in this show can take crazy turns so here's hoping there's a chance it isn't her.

Also seems like Ian would be able to get off easier with the whole AWOL crap with a legit mental illness diagnosis that was untreated at the time. At least I hope so.

Did they just drop the "yuppies taking over our neighborhood" arc this season? First half of the season seemed like it was building toward something and it's barely been mentioned since.

Not sure what to think of a potential Debbie pregnancy. On one hand it's a creepy road to go down. On the other it has potential to produce some great material to work from next season.

Also from the previews of next episode, did it look like Monica was visiting Ian in jail?

They essentially telegraphed that Debbie is getting knocked up by hammering it over our head that the medication doesn't kick in for 48 hours and to use other protection - and she then tells rico suave that he doesn't need it.

How or why Sammi is still on this show amazes me. It really does seem like they had a perfectly good situation with the gentrification story and they indeed totally dropped it so they could focus on keeping Sammi around.

Yeah, I'm thinking maybe he kills himself in custody or something because I can't believe he wouldn't have the charges against him be dismissed or at least put into a care facility. I mean I guess they could drag it out that some rear end in a top hat military prosecutor wants to make an example of him for some reason and argues that he was "mentally fit" at the time when he attempted to steal the helicopter but that would just be dumb.

Season needs to end with Ian killing himself or getting locked away in a prison because there's just nowhere else to go of interest in his story, the army angle is dumb enough and really just served to get Sammi over as a heel character even more.

The Debbie pregnancy thing is awful and I just can't defend her anymore. I hope they don't actually go that route with her but that puts her in Frank territory of selfish rear end in a top hat behavior that ruins people's lives.

Speaking of Frank are they trying to redeem him by having him be a moderately compassionate person to a dying person that we are supposed to like and feel sympathy for? Ugh.

I hope this is the end of the Fiona/AA boss angle, it's getting tiresome as well. I was really sad that when he called her on her poo poo she basically just deflected it and was like "you're an rear end in a top hat, shut up". Then the kiss at the end was like 'oh no, there's more.' Bleh.

Also no Carl and Chuckie in Juvie scene, gently caress you show.

Frank is going to have an ally in somebody who has absolutely nothing to lose. I wonder how that might work out for the person who shot him which resulted in him being at the hospital in the first place?

The "look how happy I am with my family despite an unwanted pregnancy" scene in the park was also a bit of a giveaway.

There a lot of criticisms you could voice if this is a direction the writers go in, but this isn't one of them. This isn't selfish rear end in a top hat behavior.

I don't think Ian kills himself. Not sure how a show that is still centered around comedy comes back from that. Much more likely he gets sent to jail or him and Mickey run off to a far away place together.

Has there been any talk about when they might wrap the show up? Seems some of the actors are getting bigger roles and it's difficult to keep them on all season.

Nah! A little chocolate will do




it could be viewed that way because she just said "I'm on the pill" so if she gets pregnant he has a good reason to be upset because it wasn't a joint decision. I don't see it as Frank levels of selfish and abusive but Debbie is teetering on the edge of a slippery slope.

Also gently caress Sammi, she probably didn't tell the MPs anything except "I have the AWOL Gallagher" and her justification is just. I don't know I mean she didn't seem this self-serving last year but honestly I think Frank broke her and honestly that makes sense, all of the Gallaghers are like this because Frank's behaviour broke them in different ways and at different times.
