This week's installment of Shameless was all about being haunted by one's past. Old enemies, old lovers and one very nasty old lady played major roles in the episode that marks the midway point of the second season. Let's treat this episode like a bucket of chicken and dig in!
Debbie Day Care is in full swing - Debs (Emma Kenney) is charging a delinquent mom for late pickups when someone drops off a customer a little older than the target demo: It's Granny Gallagher, played by Louise Fletcher. She's in a wheelchair and was apparently released early because she convinced them that she's dying (which sounds a little convenient to me - think there's maybe some truth to it?). Right out of the gate she's already dropping gems like "I only go to church when I'm looking to get molested." Still got it, Gran!

In the van outside of a mob boss' restaurant, Jones brings the morning coffee. Lauren helpfully establishes Burrelli, the mobster they have under surveillance. He's ticked his Bible is missing, which is a bit off. He sends his nephew, Paul Ignazio, over. "You guys are the FBI right? We need your help." So much for undercover work. How much can you accomplish when the bad guys know you're there? In Hughes' office, Burrelli explains that someone stole his parish Bible last week. Peter is disgusted and tells him to file a police report. Burrelli would take care of the problem himself, but it's hard to bust heads and torture people for information with the FBI watching your every move. He explains that it's a special medieval Bible from Naples. "The saints prayed over this book." Peter eye rolls but Hughes can't afford to upset the Catholic church upset by not taking the case.
