Supporting Cast: Tell Me You Need Me – Shameless

Here are some members of the supporting cast who appeared in the 7th episode of Season 5 of Shameless (3/1/2015) when Fiona (Emmy Rossum) got some kind of closure with her relationship with Jimmy/Steve (Justin Chatwin) and found out he was still an inveterate liar and Angela (Dichen Lachman) knew him by the name Jack.

Ian met quite a few new folks in the Cook County Psych Ward. Two that he had a bit closer contact with were Eduardo Ortiz as the guard who stopped Ian from trying to leave and Susan Chuang as the doctor who tried to make him see that he was wrong to take Yevgeny and that he really left the baby alone for 20 minutes, not 2 minutes.

Rebecca Metz plays Melinda, Fiona’s co-work at Patsy Pies. In this episode, she helped Jimmy (Justin Chatwin) with the nosebleed he got from trying to be a wiseguy with Fiona’s husband, Gus (Steve Kazee).

William H. Macy (Frank Gallagher) directed this episode, as you may know. Here is a Behind the Scenes look at that from Showtime:
