There's always something far superior and significant to each episodic title on 'Shameless'. But looks like things might take the literal turn after the long two weeks of waiting for Season 11's Episode 5.

Titled 'Slaughter', this episode reeks of some 'asshole' Frank behavior. Come to think of it, he hasn't been his gut-wrenching stone-cold selfish self since we bid Fiona goodbye but looks like it's finally time to bring out the worst in him once again.

The Milkoviches have taken hold of the house next door, and while Frank might not be the kind of dad to kill his son's in-laws, he just might team up with Mickey to give the family a dose of their own medicine.

According to the official synopsis of the episode, a lot is going down on the southside of Chicago. "Ian and Mickey's security gig comes into question; Frank and Kev try to take down the Milkoviches; V canvasses to get Black people to the polls; Debbie takes Franny to meet her favorite wrestler; Carl and Leesie's policing approaches come to a head," reveals the official synopsis of the episode. There are hints of trouble in paradise for Debbie and Sandy as is clear from the teaser promo released ahead, but all of that gets minced under the crushing weight of Frank's problems with the Milkoviches. 

The teaser promo shows Frank's got a plan. And while he doesn't really elaborate on it much, he looks pretty confident about the success of this plan. Is it the titular slaughter? Is that how he will take out the Milkoviches? It won't be far fetched as Frank is no stranger to hiring people to get his foes killed.

Back in Season 6, when he didn't like the cutthroat attitude of Sean, Fiona's ex-beau, he tried to get him killed by a random lowlife he met one night sleeping on the subway. Later when the crook didn't comply, Frank took it upon himself to attempt Sean's murder. Of course, it ended on a hilarious fail, but Frank got what he wanted — Sean and his better-at-being-the-man-of-the-house self out of their lives.

Although the Milkoviches are way more potent as enemies than Sean could ever be. They have two of theirs playing house with two of the Gallaghers, but Micky's dad has already tried to kill him, ruin his wedding, and disowned him for being gay. And Sandy has been seen more in the Gallagher house than the Milkovich shack. So no sentiments there involved. If anything, Sandy and Mickey would most likely help Frank in taking out the Milkovich problem next door!

'Shameless' Season 11 drops new episodes at midnight on the Showtime app every Sunday and airs the same episode 9 pm only on Showtime.
