FRANKIE USES BRICK TO SNITCH ON SUE AND AXL, AGAINST MIKE'S PROTESTS, ON ABC'S "THE MIDDLE"

"The Telling" - It seems like Frankie truly has eyes in the back of her head when she busts both Sue and Axl for making some bad choices that they thought no one would ever find out about. But when it turns out that she's using Brick to be her snitch, Mike is completely against it. Meanwhile, Axl's weekend getaway to the lake is in peril when Sue discovers him sneaking into the house in the middle of the night and coerces him into doing whatever she commands -- otherwise she will tattle on him; and when Frankie is stuck at work, Mike is forced to attend Parent Day at Brick's school, on "The Middle," WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12 (8:00-8:30 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
