THE RUNDOWN: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia “Frank Retires” RECAP

Last nights episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia “Frank Retires” will be going down as one of the bloodiest episodes in the series history! When Frank decides he’s going to retire the gang debates who takes over his shares and becomes the majority holder… or the person who gets to sit in “the chair with the smell of 1000 butts”! Despite it’s name it’s a privilege.

The gang goes through their files and find a plate they all signed stating the first born should receive his shares in case of death or retirement. Since both Dennis and Dee aren’t franks REAL children, Charlie wants to get a blood sample from Frank to determine if Charlie is indeed Franks son. But they know from the past that Frank would never agree to something like this, so they have to sneak it while he’s sleeping.

Well, Charlie is no surgeon because he shows up at the doctors with a bucket of blood (mainly Franks) that has over 4 different blood types as well as an animals blood, the test proves inconclusive. They have to go back to get another sample, this time they hit an artery and blood went EVERYWHERE! Frank doesn’t realize any of this and ends up looking like Nosferatu by the end of the episode and is convinced that it’s due to retirement. He decides to remain at the helm of their sinking ship called Patty’s Pub!

The gang has had some brutal blood baths in the past, but nothing to this caliber!
