I thought that about the "texting" at first too, but they later said they were emailing her. I'm assuming the inmates have some sort of access to (limited) computer usage in a library where they can do things like check email, etc.
I loved pretty much everything about last night's show, even tolerated the insane implausibility of Frank's miracle recovery for the sake of little Emily having her "Daddy's" hand to hold in her final moments. Fucking LOVED Carl. Loved everything he said and did from punching Frank in the nuts, and his "maybe she's your real mother" quip to his sweetness with Bonnie at the end (yikes on her "not liking sex" at her age).
Amanda and Lip were cute and funny and I knew they were scamming her dad, but still found it all very entertaining. Especially the "social worker with a heart of gold", which actually wasn't all that unbelievable. As a former SW myself I certainly would have melted when Lip said they were letting those kids stay there (when he's already short of food to feed his own family, etc.) because "It's cold in a van in the winter". Probably would have hooked him/them up with some services and/or vouchers for food, etc. If anyone's eligible for that sort of stuff, those kids are. But anyway, it was nice to see the family catch a break for once.
But the BEST part of the show was Ian and Mickey. OMG! Loved every little bit of their storyline last night. I was cheering Mickey when he told that bitch of a wife what time it was. And the fight!!! How cathartic was that?! Loved Mickey humping the cop car and telling Terry how he loves it when Ian gives it to him hard, lol! Can't wait for next week's finale and to rewatch this episode again.
