Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) is frustrated to see that Debbie (Emma Kenney) and Kelly (Jess Gabor) are still hanging out. Carl's situation worsens when he receives his letter from West Point, learning that he was not accepted. At his job, he is assigned to the cash register, and a man shows up with a gun to rob him. Carl dares the man to shoot him, and is alarmed when the man shoots twice at the restaurant. Carl overcomes him and brutally beats him. Lip (Jeremy Allen White) is visited by Bob (David Bowe), Tami's father, informing him that she has decided to keep the baby. Tami avoids his questions, as she questions if she could die young.
Kevin (Steve Howey) and Veronica (Shanola Hampton) begin having sex after Kevin's vasectomy passes. However, the experience is ruined as Kevin only lasts eight seconds. Later, they are confronted by Sister Frances (Caroline Choi), who has discovered that Amy and Gemma were posing as one girl. Fiona tries to find Liam (Christian Isaiah), who is not at home. Liam is revealed to be staying with a friend, and ignores the family's phone calls, feeling neglected by his siblings. Frank is taken to the hospital, but the doctors refuse to treat him as he has been at the hospital 52 times. Besides, as he has no insurance, he owes over $85,000 in costs. After getting him treated by a prodigy, the doctors take him back to his house and drop him off.
While sleeping on the couch with Kelly, Debbie kisses her. When Kelly awakes, she is horrified, stating she is not a lesbian. She says they can still be friends, but Debbie is ashamed of the events. Noticing her crying, Carl consoles her, and they both reconcile. Fiona meets with her lawyer to discuss her incoming charges, with the lawyer saying she can get it reduced to a misdemeanor. Fiona must now find a job, and she gets one at a gas station. During this, she apologizes to Eliza (Rebecca Field) for her behavior. She is then visited by Max (Neal Bledsoe), who reveals her $100,000 investment opened back up and offers to buy her out. As he leaves, Fiona considers the offer.
