I feel so bad for Sierra. That poor girl really needs to cut ties with Lip and Charlie at this point. But I'm surprised in a good way that Lip actually wants to rethink everything. I'm one of the people who actually liked to see Lip and Sierra together, but I think Lip made the right decision.
And right after that I had to roll my eyes at the "I am Ian Gallagher" scene. Especially Ian's smug smile just annoyed me. I really hope this story won't drag through all of the next season.
I was really proud of Liam that he gave Frank the wrong code. I always feel kind of bad that no one protects Liam and makes sure he doesn't get involved with Frank, but I'm glad to see the little guy knows what's right.
Glad Fiona got things done with the homeless family, but I'm still confused by this story line. People said she didn't call the police because Gallaghers don't snitch, but she was nearly getting sued for multiple million dollars and she already had a lawyer, so that just seems weird. She also had witnesses that could confirm it's her dog, the family never signed a lease or anything, the whole building belongs to her etc. I really don't know how the law regarding that works in America, but I always thought she had the upper hand here. Besides that I really hope she'll get rid of that douche Ford in the next season. What an obnoxious and arrogant guy.
And the ending made me happy - Carl on his way back to military school. THANK GOD. I was so worried he would drop out. The scenes with Kassidi had so much energy, but I was upset she dragged him down like this.
Overall this season felt slower. I did enjoy it, but it felt different, like the writers had no idea what to do with the characters. I'm also really, really sad to hear that Svetlana will leave the show. Her marriage actually felt like the beginning of a new story line. She's one of my favorites and I'll miss her character on this show.
