On Wallace Street, everyone hears the chaos inside the Milkovich house. As Terry’s drunken rampages grow worse, Margo Milkovich spends more nights slipping out after the fights end. Across the alley, Lip usually waits on the porch with a cigarette and a quiet escape to the Alibi, while Ian’s friendship with Margo complicates his growing connection to Mickey. On the South Side, thin walls mean no one can pretend they don’t hear what’s happening next door.
