Fiona (Emmy Rossum) appears to be tired of caring for her dysfunctional family in the promo teaser for the fourth episode of "Shameless" season 7.

In the previous episode, Fiona struggled hard to keep the Patsy's Pies business afloat while keeping her sanity intact because of all the trouble caused by her siblings. The trailer for the episode titled "I Am a Storm" revealed that Fiona could no longer stand it, saying that all she ever did in the last 10 years was to take care of her family and that she neglected to take care of herself. Does it mean that she will finally cut ties with her siblings to start focusing on her own wellbeing?

Two new sneak peeks are also released prior to the airing of the next episode. One of them, titled "The Only Gramps These Guys Got," showed that Svetlana's (Isidora Goreshter) father is trying to take care of the kids. But Kev (Steve Howey) became alarmed after he saw him trying to feed one of the children using a knife. Kev tried to explain to him that in the U.S., people do not shove food into their kids' mouths using a knife. But while Svetlana's dad appeared to have understood him, Kev was still unsure since the old man could only understand Russian.

The other sneak peek showcased Frank's (William H. Macy) attempt to tame his new "family" by setting ground rules at home. He also asked them to look for furniture left on the streets, since the realty company will take back all the furniture left in the house where they are staying.

Showtime also released the synopsis for the new episode, which reads: "Frank worries that he and his new family will lose their Home for the Homeless shelter, so he plans a little goodwill for the neighborhood. Meanwhile, Fiona drums up business by throwing a speakeasy party at Patsy's Pies."

The new episode of "Shameless" season 7 will air on Sunday, Oct. 23, at 9 p.m. ET on Showtime.
