Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Showtime’s Shameless season 10 episode 11, Kev reminded us that “the longest part of a journey is always the first step,” and if you don’t believe him, check your fortune cookie.
Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not watched the latest episode yet.
In last night’s episode, “Location, Location, Location,” Debbie gets caught in the middle of Julia and Claudia’s drama while looking quite dapper in her tux. Meanwhile, Lip has second thoughts about moving, Liam attempts to track down Frank, and Ian and Mickey discuss wedding plans.
My top 5 moments from Shameless season 10 episode 11 are:
5
“So we’re not the good cops?”
Carl continues to work undercover to prove that the sanitation department is dirty even though his boss reminds him that he’s not undercover and perhaps he should stop telling people that he is.
Carl is definitely loyal to the cause and reminds his boss that he “took a shit in someone’s house” to keep up appearances, but it looks like he certainly is going to make a great cop one day.
Although, he might want to figure out what side he’s actually on…

“I found my calling.”
Kev comes to the realization that he needs a thing, now accepting that he won’t make it into the NBA. V hilariously reminds him that he was never going to play for the NBA, but Kev is still determined to write his letter of retirement. I mean, “Dear Basketball” is a great start!
Kev is anxious to discover the next chapter of his life, but V points out that “retirement is for rich people.” After the husband from the school auction shows up to cash in on his personal training session with Kev, this inspires a new calling, as he decides to train people with…“keg lifts.”
It seems like it’s working so far so perhaps Kev has found his thing after all!

“Remember, you’re desperately in love with me.”
How could Debbie forget?! Debbie continues to web a lie of deception, agreeing to go to the homecoming dance with Julia, but of course, Claudia’s birthday dinner is on the same night!
Debbie is convinced that she can swing both and even learns how to tie a bow tie like a champ from Sandy Milkovich, but it’s only a matter of time before she gets caught…
After starting off with an impressive run back and forth, Claudia notices the boutonniere on Debbie’s jacket and of course she recognizes it…since she bought it for her daughter’s date.
Debbie is caught in the middle of this mother-daughter drama and decides to leave them to their rich people problems while she ends up having a blast with Sandy Milkovich.
It looks like Debbie is moving on to Sandy, but what will happen when Julia shows up on their doorstep next week?

“The other path also led to addiction…”
Well, Frank may be honest here, but at least he’s out of the woods and out of rehab! Frank is ready to find his next scheme, but he runs into Faye, who tells him that she is going back to Puerto Rico for the winter.
Faye still seems to have some lingering feelings here, but Frank is not about to pass up a new scheme, as he decides to break into Faye’s house and enjoy some relaxation by himself.
Liam eventually tracks him down and Frank reluctantly agrees to sign his paper so he doesn’t get kicked out of school, but Frank now starts to think that Faye’s house may really be haunted after all…
After a few close calls, Frank runs into the “yard guy” and they realize that they are both staying there without Faye knowing. They strike a deal to both stay there and it looks like this may be the start of another beautiful friendship for Frank…

“Can’t we just be Ian and Mickey?”
After Mickey’s father threatens him, Mickey is ready to pull out all the stops for the wedding, but Ian just wants things to go smoothly. Mickey has quite a few thoughts about flowers and song choices, but don’t mess with him when it comes to selecting the perfect chairs…
Ian recognizes that Mickey is on edge because of his father, but he tries to be as supportive as he can while reminding Mickey that he does love him. In a truly romantic moment, Ian gets the guitar player to perform “Livin’ on a Prayer” for Mickey, which seems to get these two back on track.
It looks like we’ll be seeing the wedding in next week’s season finale, but I’m sure we will have to deal with a lot of obstacles along the way. Well, at least Lip isn’t moving anymore, although this may put a dent in his relationship with Tami…
Stay tuned Gallagher fans!
