It's another hilarious week of the Gallagher family antics in Shameless season 9 episode 3: Weirdo Gallagher Vortex. As always, the family is in full swing, each member dealing with their own set of problems, but this week they come together in a way that is both heartwarming and comical.

We start off with Frank (played by William H. Macy), who is visited by a woman claiming to be his long-lost daughter. After some investigation, Frank realizes that the woman is a con artist and she gets her comeuppance in true Gallagher fashion.

Meanwhile, Fiona (played by Emmy Rossum) is struggling to keep her building up and running after a string of unfortunate events. She recruits Carl (played by Ethan Cutkosky) to help her out and the two end up having a heart-to-heart about their futures.

Lip (played by Jeremy Allen White) is dealing with his own family troubles, juggling the demands of his pregnant girlfriend and his alcoholic sister. He turns to his sponsor for help, but gets caught up in his own impulses.

The episode takes a surprising turn when Debbie (played by Emma Kenney) declares that she wants a baby. She enlists the help of her boyfriend and father of her child, Derek, but their plan doesn't exactly go as planned.

Meanwhile, Ian (played by Cameron Monaghan) is still reeling from his heartbreak over his ex-boyfriend and is struggling to find meaning in his life. He spends much of the episode trying to figure out his next move, but a surprise visit from a familiar face changes everything.

The standout character this week, however, is Kev (played by Steve Howey). He finds himself in a "weirdo Gallagher vortex" when he stumbles upon a stash of old family photos and becomes obsessed with the idea of finding out who his ancestors were. He spends the episode researching and reaching out to extended family members, and even goes as far as to get a DNA test. The result is both hilarious and heartwarming, and Kev ends the episode with a newfound appreciation for his roots.

Overall, Weirdo Gallagher Vortex is a heartfelt and funny episode that showcases the best and worst of the Gallagher family. With each character dealing with their own set of problems, it's nice to see them come together and help each other out in the end.
