I forgot about that old man dying this episode. This damn show always traumatizing Debbie lol
Regarding Ian and Mickey, there's a bit that I find a tad unrealistic early on. But it's Shameless so I give them a bit of a pass. It's real life but in an exaggerated way. I do love Ian and Mickey though. I think you'll soften towards them. But if you don't, it's still a really good story. Won't spoil anything for you though.
