Eileen Murphy is the daughter of William Murphy and Nora Murphy and the younger sister of Frank Murphy.
Biography[]
Eileen, 5 years old (1944)
Eileen was born in 1939 to William "Big Bill" Murphy and Nora Murphy. Though he was the talk of the town outside, behind closed doors, Bill was abusive, cold, and a drunk. He was abusive to Nora, Eileen, and especially Frank. On one occasion in the year 1944, Frank accidentally spilled grape juice at the dinner table, causing Big Bill to smack the ice cream he was holding into his face. After beginning to cry, Big Bill demanded that he cleaned up the mess before he threw him down a well. Eileen shyly said they don't have a well, causing Big Bill to yell at her, stating that it's an expression and that she is just like her Mother. In the year 1952, after witnessing Big Bill beat up Frank with a crutch (when Frank stood up to him), her mother Nora also stood up to him and lost his respect, causing her to divorce him. Her father left in 1953, disappearing from her older brother's life for years while Nora and Eileen moved to California, where they still reside as of 1974. After visiting Frank in A Very Merry Fucking Christmas she met and started a relationship with Ginny Throater and in Bye Bye Frankie, Ginny gives up her children to Greg Throater and goes with Nora and Eileen back to California.
Personality[]
Not much is known about Eileen, due to only having one line ("We Don't Have a Well."). However, it is most likely she has a negative relationship with her father, just like her brother Frank and her mother Nora.
