Man that was hard to watch :,-( Frank and Bill were on track to patch things up, but as you know, Bill doesn't see past his grand daughter's birth.

Frank struggles with the conflict between his expectations of himself to "be a man" and his suppressed grief.

Everyone has their breaking point. Frank finding his is a hard watch.

F is for Family has made me cry more intensely than it has ever made me laugh, sometimes simultaneously.

Easily one of the most touching shows ever made.

Warning: Spoilers
Frank's dad passes away and he claims to have no feelings. He is relieved. Sue is annoyed at her family and goes outside for a smoke. Kevin tells her they all know she does and lists all her cigarette hiding places including a Kotex box. We see Anthony with the box later.

Frank is annoyed at all the mourners talking about his dad's good deeds.

Frank's friends come and talk about you got to live life for today.

At Maureen's birthday at the bowling alley, the cashier brings out the two golden balls that were ordered by a Murphy. Only then does Frank cry for his father genuinely.
