[@RockyMtnFuzz]

I think this is the moment the Frank we all know was born. He was for sure downhill before this moment, but once he realized his life has been a lie; he just takes a nose dive. And its been fantastic.

[@aguy7848]

The Frank we all know was born in "Charlie Gets Crippled" when the stripper offers him a free lap dance and reluctantly goes "...Well maybe just one." It was all downhill after that.

[@RockyMtnFuzz]

@@aguy7848 I have to respectfully disagree with you on this. While Frank was definitely heading downhill; agreeing to the lap dance and wanting to live the depraved fringe lifestyle with Charlie, he was still wanting to spend time with his "children" Dennis and Deandra after "The Gang gets Crippled" episode. For example, Frank in that season wanted to spend quality time with Dee during the "Hundred Dollar Baby" episode. I feel once he knew he was tricked into raising two awful children for decades at the end of Season 2, all bets were off and Franky was born.

[@aguy7848]

@@RockyMtnFuzz If I may retort, he may have cared about the twins for some time after, and still does to a degree, but his professional "real adult" facade began to erode at the strip club. If he said no, he wouldn't have got addicted to banging strippers or decided to voluntarily live in squalor with Charlie. He made the final transition to Mantis Toboggan here.

He came back into Dennis and Dee’s life to reconnect with him, but was also having some sort of mid-life crisis and wanted to get involved in all The Gang’s schemes.

Danny said on the episode of the podcast he guested on that one of the things he loves about doing the show is the real emotional core to it. He's totally giving it his all in this scene, not trying to be funny but just to truly live his character's outrage and betrayal. If not for the "Sunny music" at the end and the rest of the characters reacting like Frank's rant and collapse was just an embarassing faux pas, it would be absolutely tragic.

This is brilliant. Even though Frank’s wife seems sensible at first, she turns out to be cruel hearted, and even though Frank seems rightly indignant at first, he turns out to be completely unhinged. It becomes clear that their powers combined create the likes of Dee and Dennis who in turn are really just as awful

[@eamonmahoney9466]

And men like Bruce Mathis and Ari Frankel saw her as an angel. Those two men make me mad for some reason. Especially the actor who played Bruce (Stephen Collins). The man is an absolute disgrace. As for the actor who played Ari (Josh Stamberg) he’s a much kinder person in real life. I sometimes think that Josh Stamberg’s real father is Stephen Collins, but I know he looks like his mother Susan so that theory of mine isn’t valid. Susan Stamberg is Jewish and it’s forbidden in Judaism for children to be born via surrogacy or sperm donation. I don’t think Susan Stamberg would want anything to do with a disgraced man like Stephen Collins
