And the alternate scenario would be Fiona finally giving him a stern piece of her mind and achieving the much-needed closure that would be essential for her to get back on her feet. One, he will win her over once again, and this time without any serious secrets that could send Fiona off to another major spiral when she finds out. But his tools are clearly important, and so is the fact that he has decided to show up once again.įord's entrance at this point in Fiona's life - especially with her story ending on the show - could imply two things. We have to admit that the man has some guts walking into the house of the same people who managed to trap him naked and leave him hanging from a hoisted wooden guillotine to shoot paint-pellets at his bare butt. However recent promos of the upcoming ninth episode teased a peek of Ford inside the Gallagher household and he claims he just wants his tools back from Fiona. He didn't even have the toxic lack of trust that Fiona's accidental short-term husband Gus did, so watching him finally treat Fiona right was good for a change. And unlike disturbing episodes of heroin addiction that came with her almost-husband, Sean (Dermot Mulroney), Ford was sorted in those departments. Ford seemed much more mature than the reckless abandon of Jimmy/Steve who just ended up stringing Fiona along for the longest time. From sharing homes in the same apartment building to moving in together, Fiona and Ford's relationship had been a joyride compared to her past investments in matters of love. At the center of several dramatic subplots playing out simultaneously will be Fiona's relationship with her Irish hunk of an ex-boyfriend, Ford, which leaves us with the biggest question of all: With Fiona's story coming to an end once Emmy Rossum quits after season nine, does the character end up with Ford?įiona (Rossum) - much like her past relationships - had started off with Ford as a non-exclusive hook up since he was a tenant in the same apartment building Fiona had bought. Showtime's hit dramedy 'Shameless' is back from its mid-season hiatus with the latter half of season nine, and while the mid-season premiere was confusing and not all that surprising, the upcoming episode 9 has some heavily packed drama in store for viewers.
