Here’s how you can watch The Conners episode 9 live online or the old-fashioned way right on your television.

The Conners’ midseason premiere episode “Rage Against the Machine” airs tonight on ABC primetime starting at 8 p.m. ET. You can catch the latest chapter live from your laptop at ABC’s official live stream.

This week’s episode sees Dan injury his arm and though he thinks it’s not that bad, his lawyer certainly doesn’t. Who tells him to “never say that again” in the preview trailer. Suing could mean his son D.J. losing his job, as the incident occurs when Dan covers for D.J.’s vending machine route…

Will Dan go through with filing the lawsuit, or let it be for his son’s sake? The Conners have spoken about how difficult it is to obtain a job in Lanford recently. Actor Peter Gallagher will be playing the lawyer Dan consults with.

“Rage Against the Machine” Episode Description:

"When Dan gets injured while covering D.J.’s vending machine route, the decision to sue the company could cost D.J. his job; Jackie is appalled when Becky seeks life coaching from her nemesis."

Meanwhile, Jackie’s dismayed when Becky decides to seek “life coaching” from her “nemesis” instead of her. Will it be Bev? Becky hasn’t been the same since her pregnancy and Darlene’s warning to daughter Harris recently about “not becoming like her aunt Becky” hurt her immensely.

It’s interesting this episode is titled “Rage Against the Machine,” though an obvious pun, makes one wonder if a song of the band’s would ever pop up on the show or really any mainstream television series some day. Seems unlikely but both Aerosmith’s “Dream On” and Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” were played just like their episode’s namesakes on a certain weekly show featuring a distinct ‘fixer’ on Showtime recently. Anything is possible!

Here’s how to watch the latest episode online via live stream or on TV:

Date: Tuesday, Jan. 8
Start Time: 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. Central
