Modern Family season three premiered to an episode called Dude Ranch, as the kickstart of a doubleheader. In this episode Reid Ewing hit it out of the park! He stole the episode playing Dylan!
In this episode, the family decides to don their cow boots and hats and head to Jackson Hole, Wyoming for some fun and adventure in the great outdoors. While vacationing on Lost Creek Ranch, they try their hands at a little cattle herding, skeet shooting and horseback riding; there are also some big firsts, a huge surprise and an actual face off between Jay and a foe – a cowboy named Hank.

Phil Dunphy: I´m not looking for a hug, I just want to get that look of new found respect
Cameron: Ok, Tres Macho! No smile, no smile
Mitchell: I realized that if I was going to raise a boy I needed to butch up my life, you know, I want to be able to teach my son all the things my dad taught… Claire
Jimmy: You wanna see me do a cannonball?
Alex: I rather see you hit by one
Cameron: Why are you riding like that?

Dylan: You are totally a hot mom, but I can´t do this
Claire: Oh My God!
Dylan: Fiuuu! That would´ve been awkward
Claire: So awkward
Dylan: But for the record, Mrs Dunphy, if Haley wasn´t my girlfriend, and Mr Dunphy was not in the picture, I would be honored to share your bed and raise Haley, Alex and Luke as my own
Phil Dunphy: I think you said it all, Claire, do you want me to rope her? I can you know

Luke: After this it´s gonna be Angry Birds
Mitchell: Yeah, By Bye Birdie… it´s a big musical from the sixties… no, forget about it
Gloria: He ain´t down there
Gloria: Do I look like the kind of woman who would cheat on her husband
Hank: Yes

Every wednesday night when a new episode of Modern Family airs, that´s a good thing.
And even a guy like Manu Ginobili, in a heartbreaking loss day tweeted about Modern Family´s episode saying: In a night like tonight, on the road, only two people can cheer me up. Sheldon Cooper & Phil Dunphy. Their time.
In this episode of Modern Family Phil and Claire have some trepidation when they find out that Luke has befriended their crotchety old neighbor, Mr. Kleezak; Jay’s attempt to avoid sitting through a symphony concert with Gloria and Manny lands him in the middle of Mitchell and Cameron’s “boys’ night out”; and Haley has her own adventures in babysitting with Lily.
Phil Dunphy: Boys versus girls, testosterone versus estrogen, standing up to pee versus
Claire: Come on Phil
Haley: Can I be sent to my room?
Claire: Nope, because we are having family fun
Claire: If Hannibal Lecter and Freddy Krueger had a child, he´d be afraid of our next door neighbor
Cameron: I´ve been spending time with straight people, and I need some time with my homies.
Mitchell: You mean your “homos”?
Cam: You know maybe you should babysit instead
Haley: Being grounded is so much worse now than it was in the older days: My friends text and Facebook all the fun stuff they are doing while I´m stuck at home playing Jenga with my dad
Mitchell: What are you thinking? Haley is a very sweet and fashionable girl but seems hardly a responsible care giver
Claire: Sweetie, you need to stop watching the news
Alex: That´s your big solution? Embrace Ignorance?
Phil: What are you two arguing about? Nevermind, I don´t want to know
Cam: All you need to do is put her to sleep in half an hour and not let enter a serial killer through the front door
Haley: What if he´s cute?
Mitchell: Well, then save him for us
Jay: What is this? I thought we were seeing Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons
Manny: No, it´s Vivaldi
Jay: Oh crap… you mean nothing but instruments? I´m out of here
Mitchell: When I was 12 years old, my father walked into my bedroom and caught me doing the most embarassing thing that a boy can do: dancing to Madonna´s Lucky Star
Jay: I was drunk, I´m not going shopping with Priscilla Queen of the Desert
Cam: Are you talking about Rob Lowe?
Mitchell: He´s just a great actor. I think his good looks just held him back

Yay a new airing of Modern Family, this one called Two Monkeys and a Panda where while Claire runs herself ragged trying to play peacemaker with Haley and Alex, Phil sneaks off for a nice relaxing day at the spa. Meanwhile, Gloria is horrified by Jay’s morbid plans to purchase two primo side-by-side crypts in preparation of the inevitable future, and Cameron decides he wants to write a book that celebrates the fact that Lily is adopted — however, during the process he unearths artifacts that are quite disturbing.
Phil Dunphy: Claire, I don´t think you are grasping the magnitude of this package valued over 250 dollars. If you don´t use it, all our money gors to charity.
Claire Dunphy: Phil, you are not helping
Haley: I will go on and put your favourite nerdy t-shirt, the one with the guy from Back to the future on it
Alex: That´s Albert Einstein and it is not nerdy!
Cameron: I´m taking away the negative charge on the word adopting. Yay!
Mitchell: What did Oprah do now?
Manny: This is my mother Jay
Gloria: Tada is when you do a flip, or when the magician cuts the pretty lady in half, not when you show somebody where you want to shove their dead body.
Cameron: I knew it, you two faced!
Manny: For the first month I didn´t even bother learning your name
Haley: I wish you weren´t even born
Alex: They were trying to make one with a brain
Jay: You drive me crazy on purpose
Gloria: We need to talk about these Tada

Ok, if you follow this site enough, you´d already know Phil Dunphy, Barney Stinson and the duo Shawn Spencer/Burton Guster are the ones that crack me the most. And Modern Family is no doubt one of the funniest sitcoms nowadays and given it enough time, it will be in the Hall of Fame of perennial funny shows. I have showed the best quotes from Phil Dunphy, and now a new episode called Regrets Only aired, where Phil and Claire had a huge fight and Phil hasn’t a clue as to what it was over, so Gloria steps in to counsel Phil and Jay takes Claire. Meanwhile, Jay may have some regret in buying Gloria a karaoke machine, and Cameron is in full prep mode for a huge fundraising event and enlists help from Mitchell and Luke — which might not be the best choices.
Phil: Hey. Sleep alright?
Claire: No. You? Say no Phil
Phil: Of course no. I missed you up there
Phil: You don´t need to apologize
Claire: I don´t think I was to…
Phil: You were right to be mad
Phil: No. No idea whatsoever
Luke: You are a mess
Phil: Careful buddy, not today
Mitchell: Cam has it in his head that I don´t listen to him
Cam: Do you Mitchell, do you?
Gloria: I do you. I can do Phil
Phil: You c-c-c-c-can do me
Cam: It is amazing what you notice and what you do not notice
Phil: Happy Valenbirthaversary!
Phil: I thought you were a racoon

Haley: I´m pregnant
Cam: What can we do?
Luke: I can start a fire
Cam: No. But we´ll keep that in our back pocket
Phil: …I have Claire all over me
Claire: You will soon
Manny: I can´t take it anymore. It´s not singing, it´s screaming. Mom, I love you, but for the love of God destroy that thing before it destro2ysthis family! Coward!
Jay: I think you sound great, but if it bothers the kid
Manny: Coward!
Manny: You keep this up and this won´t be the last plug I pull
Recap by MurphAndTheMagicTones for IMDB.com
Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire (Julie Bowen) had a fight? Perish the thought. And why is Claire on the couch? Doesn’t the husband usually get kicked out of the bedroom in traditional sitcoms? Anyway, they hope they’re past their fight, even though Phil has no clue why Claire was upset. Although the disaster area that was the kitchen, including exploded microwave, may have had something to do with it. Speaking of marital bliss, Jay (Ed O’Neill) thought he finally got Gloria (Sofía Vergara) a great gift on time for her birthday. He forgot once and paid for it. He got her the wrong thing once and paid for it. This time, the gift was perfect: a karaoke machine. Yes, he’s paying for it. Gloria is no Juice Newton, that’s for certain. Jay dropping a spoon down the waste disposal on purpose might have been my first clue. Jay makes the mistake of asking what happened the previous night, and the story of the raccoon didn’t hold. Since Jay couldn’t fix the microwave, it was time to go to the mall. Which Phil didn’t want to do with Claire, so he makes up an excuse to get his hair cut. But Jay tells him Gloria cuts hair and does a pretty good job of it.
GLORIA: I guess I could. I do Jay. Why can’t I can do you?
PHIL: (very awkward) Sure, you can…do me.
Jay has no problem taking Claire to the mall. Anything to avoid Gloria’s singing.
Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) was having an event at the house that night, and he was completely excited. Not about the event, but about the fact the last guy who ran the event was an ‘arch-enemy’ of Cam’s (he likes having an archenemy), and nobody RSVP’ed in the negative for the party. Probably because Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) never sent the invitations out. They were hiding under his gym bag in the car.
MITCHELL: I feel terrible. I haven’t been to the gym in six weeks. And I ruined Cam’s event.
There being a PETA event the same night doesn’t help, so Mitchell can’t get anybody to show up last minute, and Luke’s (Nolan Gould) assistance isn’t going so well. But Cam isn’t worried…yet. Even took the time to rub it in to Andrew, his arch-enemy. (“Better get home to Donald. That is the name of your cat, isn’t it?”)
Now anybody who knows what Sofía Vergara looks like and has ever had their hair cut while sitting in a normal chair would probably guess something was constantly in Phil’s face during his haircut. Well, technically, two things. Of course, he’s trying to avoid it/them, but Gloria is getting upset with his fidgeting. Gloria guessed (correctly, actually) that Phil had another thing on his mind (and only one thing). He asks for advice on the fight he had the prior night. Gloria thought that’s why Phil avoided the mall, when in reality Claire enjoyed the masseur at the mall WAY too much.
Haley (Sarah Hyland) had a job at a restaurant and was making quite a lot in tips, which Phil and Claire were matching dollar-for-dollar. Alex (Ariel Winter) was naturally suspicious, and she grilled Manny (Rico Rodriguez) for details when he claimed he never saw Haley at the restaurant. And now we know why Alex is the smart one: she figures out Haley hangs out at the mall and flashes the same cash Jay gave her for her birthday to bump up the donation from Mom and Dad for the car. Sure enough, Alex knows where she wants to go to dinner tonight.
After putting up with watching his daughter moan enough from her massage to have her own porno flick, Jay demands to know what the fight was about, as did Gloria with Phil. Phil saw her freak out, but he didn’t know anything else. We get a flashback to the fight, presumably from Phil’s perspective, as Claire didn’t say why she was going ballistic. In the Jay/Claire combination, we find out she stormed out (“right out of your mother’s playbook), only to get her robe caught in the outside door, resulting in her being outside in her lingerie. She tries to crawl back inside through a vent, only to spook Phil and have him turn a fire extinguisher on her. She was completely off the reservation now, grabbed the extinguisher, and turned it on Phil. He slipped and fell, taking the microwave door with him.
But Gloria can’t believe she did that for no reason. Turns out Claire was upset her friend blew her off for lunch without a note. But Phil did write a note…on a piece of paper the size of a thumbnail. (“You do that to me, and I kill you.”) Then he told Claire about the “accident” that “wasn’t her fault”. (“You do the air bunnies to me, and I kill you.”) THEN, he tells her he ran into an old girlfriend and is getting coffee with her. (“You tell me you see an old girlfriend, and I…” “Kill me, yes.”) But wait! There’s more! He picked up the broccoli and not the cauliflower. And that set her off.
But on the other side of the conversation, Claire tells Jay what’s really going on. Phil had a wedge salad at his friend’s suggestion. Not hers, like she told him way back. Same with music, movies, everything. He’ll listen to everyone’s opinions except hers. They confronted each other about it in the morning (Phil still didn’t have a clue.) And Claire thought Jay should confront Gloria about the karaoke singing. Be a straight shooter.
JAY: When you get a massage, you sound like a Tijuana prostitute.
Cameron can’t find Mitchell, who is busy trying to get invitations out to anybody and everybody he can. Meanwhile, Phil and Claire take Alex to Haley’s restaurant. Haley tries the ‘ol ‘no reservation’ trick, but Alex thought of that one already. They order drinks (Alex making a really complicated drink order, natch) and Haley tries to hit up a real waitress to get the drinks for her. Phil tries to make amends, saying he won’t be seeing is ex and nobody called for Claire. (No, it’s not working.) The gift of a cauliflower doesn’t work, either. Claire finally wonders what the hell he’s doing.
PHIL: I still feel bad about…you know…what I did. (which he didn’t)
Claire still claims they’re OK, until Phil takes a suggestion from his friend, Skip Woosnam, for a wedge salad. Claire finally goes off on him about not taking her suggestions. They made her feel like she didn’t matter. And Haley got “fired” because of Mom’s little outburst.
It was a family party at Cam and Mitchell’s, because nobody else showed. And Gloria’s singing has gotten worse. (“We passed by two cars and dogs stuck their heads back in the windows.”) But at least now Claire knows Phil was thankful she changed him for the better in a hundred different ways, if the lack of a ponytail and feathered earring were any indication. (“I may miss a book or a salad here and there, but I’ve got Claire all over me.”) Cameron goes up to start the very quiet evening, but Mitchell comes through in the clutch.
JAY: You can’t have a successful marriage without being a good listener. Sometimes it takes work, sometiems it takes a lot of work. And sometimes it’s just excruciating.
Fortunately, Manny begs Gloria to stop before Jay says anything. Jay is a coward, according to Manny. But he did try to sing Danny Boy. (“You keep this up, and this won’t be the last plug I pull.”)

And Modern Family is no doubt one of the funniest sitcoms nowadays and given it enough time, it will be in the Hall of Fame of perennial funny shows. I have showed the best quotes from Phil Dunphy, and now a new episode called Princess Party aired, where the guest list for Lily’s princess-themed birthday party gets a little out of hand when Mitchell decides to invite mom, much to Claire’s dismay, and disinvite Fizbo, much to Cameron’s dismay. Things get even more strange when Dede (guest star Shelley Long) shows up with Claire’s old high school boyfriend (guest star Matt Dillon) in tow, and Jay and Gloria each turn to their own unique methods of dealing with this gathering of misfits.
Claire: We had you tested six times. Believe me, I was praying for dislexia
Phil: Hey Luke, if your mom starts to lose it, I need you to lighten the mood by being extra cute
Luke: No problem, I´ve got some stuff prepared.
Mitchell: Gun to my head, I´d say pull the trigger
Mitchell: The center of attention at Lily´s party should be Lily; not Fizbo the needy clown
Mitchell: Well, if the shoe fits
Cam: They don´t. They are comically large
Luke: Ok, I need a giant lollypop and I need it now
Robby: How do you know Claire?
Phil: I know Claire from being married to Claire
Claire: Mom didn´t mention that I am married with three kids?
Robby: No, all she said is that you are still trying to figure out your life
Claire: Really? Mom
Phil: Dede?
Dede: Aren´t we all?
Claire: No, not really
Claire: Mom, I could use some help in the kitchen
Dede: Your words, not mine
Dede: I don´t know about you, but I was not raised that way
Claire: You raised me
Gloria: That was a bear
Jay: A bear? I was going to get a crucifix
Claire: I don´t see mom since she made out with my ex boyfriend
Gloria: Buenos Dias Dede mi amor bello como estas?
Claire: You win. I´m screaming at a Princess Party
Robby: Your little intimidation thing may have worked when I was a kid. But I´m a full grown man now… and I´ll go
Phil: I got Gloria!
Recap by MurphAndTheMagicTones
Claire (Julie Bowen) is at a full boil already, and Phil (Ty Burrell) is going to stop it before it starts. Her mother, DeDe, is coming to town, and Phil wants the kids on their best behavior. Alex (Ariel Winter) will just play the cello in her room, and Luke (Nolan Gould) has pages of cutesy material to roll out to help Claire. But Alex playing the theme to Jaws was so apropos, as DeDe (Shelley Long) comes in…with Claire’s high school boyfriend, Robbie Sullivan (Matt Dillon). (Oh, we’re just gettin’ started with the awkward stuff.) Turns out DeDe invited Robbie to dinner at Claire’s, and to Lily’s Princess Birthday Party, and didn’t tell Robbie that Claire was married. He actually has to meet Phil for the evidence. (And Phil’s hand still smelled like cheese.)
DE DE: Oh, Claire! Sometimes I forget you’re all grown up! In my mind, you’re still just twelve! But look at us: two old ladies!
(FYI, that would be the nicest thing DeDe says to Claire the entire episode.)
To back up a bit, Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) are throwing Lily a Princess-themed birthday party, and somehow Cameron thinks Fizbo would be perfect for it. Naturally Mitchell (and those with taste) disagree. Understandable, because one of their friends was going to be in Chicago, and Cameron thought that meant the musical.
MITCHELL: It’s a princess party theme, and clearly you don’t respect party themes.
CAMERON: You did NOT just say that.
MITCHELL: (apologetic) You’re right, that crossed a line. I’m sorry.
Fizbo still wasn’t invited, though. Jay (Ed O’Neill) and Gloria (Sofía Vergara) bought a children’s book for Lily (turning down Manny’s suggestion of cashmere) where they could record their voices. After much effort, and Manny’s (Rico Rodriguez) assistance with playing the baby bear, they got it. Although Manny thought he would have done a better job had he known the baby bear was a girl. (JAY: I think you nailed it.) But Gloria was hesitant about going to the party since DeDe was going to be there, and their last 2 meetings (including the wedding) were disasters. Gloria hoped Jay wasn’t too upset.
JAY: (in interview) GREATEST! NEWS! EVER!!!
In fact, he even thought the same technique would work to get him out of the communion of their friend’s daughter. Until Gloria decided she wasn’t going to let DeDe dictate when and where she could visit her family, because she wanted to see the kids’ birthdays and graduations.
Claire consults with Mitchell about their mother bringing Robbie over for dinner.
CLAIRE: Every time he opens his mouth, I can feel my daughters losing respect for me.
MITCHELL: It is totally amazing the freaks we used to date.
FIZBO: ‘Allo, Gov’nor!
Mitchell shoots down the “court jester” angle Cameron thought up for Fizbo. (“There goes the theory that a British accent makes everybody sound smart.”) Then he hits Cam/Fizbo with the fact he hired a princess for the party. (cue the gasp…) Cameron is going ballistic, but Mitch tells him to act like a parent for once.
As DeDe regails Claire’s kids with stories of Claire sneaking in at 3 in the morning with Robbie, which Haley (Sarah Hyland) loved, btw, Claire relied on Phil’s technique of squeezing his hand under the table rather than getting ticked off at her mother. He might have broken a few fingers on this one. Ordinarily, Claire liked roller coasters, but not this one. Phil thought the night was about DeDe wishing Claire married Robbie instead of him. However, they catch catches DeDe making out with her limo driver, Robbie. At least Phil’s off the hook.
The party was a disaster. And within the first five seconds. Cameron eyed the priness like a stalker (“Glitter? That’ll settle in her lungs.”), DeDe was AWOL but left notes about her good time with Robbie, and Gloria decided to take in the party with some Xanax…washed down with a shot of tequila. DeDe showed up with Robbie and Cameron berated the princess for breaking character after he hounded her for methods of payment. Mitchell thinks it’s about him for DeDe not staying over, Claire thought it was about her and her ex-boyfriend, and Jay thought it was about him and having a younger wife now. And the well-medicated Gloria wondered why everybody was having a bad time at a party. Well, since DeDe critcized Lily’s wardrobe and Robbie put Mitchell in a headlock and gave him head noogies like he did when they were kids and Gloria was practically making out with DeDe, there might have been an issue or two.
Claire confronts Robbie, who confesses he always had a crush on DeDe (while he was dating Claire!) and was fulfilling his fantasy. And Robbie misinterprets that as Claire still wanting him, which he tells DeDe…and she’s ticked!
CLAIRE: Why does everything have to be so hard with you? Why can’t be you just be a normal old grandma? It’s a sick game with you! You push people and push people to see how far you can push them! Well guess what? You win! I’m screaming at a Princess Party, Mom!!
Phil tells Robbie to leave, but he refuses becaus he thinks the princess likes him. Then Jay intimidates him into going, and he does. And Gloria playfully hits Jay with a balloon. On the good side, Mitchell gives Cam the green light to break out Fizbo.
MITCHELL: I guess every kid needs a little clown for a dad.
CAMERON: Oh, you just made a little girl so happy!
MITCHELL: Yes, I can see that.
DeDe was almost crying in the corner because she gave in to the attentions of a younger man. Jay waves it off, but it went deeper than that. DeDe left to find something better and still hasn’t done it. But Jay said he didn’t have the guts to end the marriage when it needed to be.
DE DE: I just don’t want to be thought of as ‘crazy Nana.’ I think my real problem…IS HER!!!! (attacks Gloria)
So it was about Jay. And once again, Phil’s got Gloria. But Lily did like the book. The recording in the book, where Jay drinks and says Cam’s going to return it anyway, not so much. (cue gasp)

It’s Valentine’s Day again, and Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire (Julie Bowen) decided to take it down a notch after what happened last year with their sexy alternate identities of Clive and Julianna…that Claire lost her panties in front of her father. And apparently, she hates the word ‘panties’. (or underpanties, Phil!) Cameron (Eric Stonestreet), being the sweet guy he is, sent Mitchell flowers at work, only Mitchell’s assistant didn’t deliver them. Cameron knows what it’s about: Mitchell’s assistant has a crush on him. Mitchell denies it, but Cam knows how adorable and irresistable Mitch is (hey, if I swung that way, I’d think Jesse Tyler Ferguson is incredibly easy on the eyes), but Cam’s solution of firing him doesn’t sit well with Mitchell.
Phil and Claire have to take a 6:15 reservation at a restaurant, but the place is packed…with people getting the early-bird special. But Phil is convincing Claire they don’t need the crazy V-Day like they had last year; they can kick it with people who probably celebrated V-E Day, too. And Claire agrees, until she gets nailed by the guy driving a personal scooter through the restaurant. And it gets worse when Phil offers to drive it to the front for him…and likes it. It’s time for her to head to the bathroom and change into Juliana. Of course, Phil doesn’t have a clue, so she has to give him PLENTY of prompts. And not crashing into a table as he pretends to dump Claire to go meet Juliana at their hotel.
Jay (Ed O’Neill) and Gloria (Sofía Vergara) are at the same restaurant, only Jay has a plan this year. He’ll pretend to not get the reservation so that the private chef and musicians he arranged can set up at his house. Sounds like a perfect plan, right? Of course, it’s not a matter of IF it will screw-up, but how much and how funny it will be WHEN it screws up. And it took all of two minutes, as Gloria got them in the restaurant. Meanwhile, the kids are at home, where Haley (Sarah Hyland) is bemoaning the fact that not only she doesn’t have a date, but Alex (Ariel Winter) has a date. Being on a phone with a boy while they watch Love Actually isn’t much of a date, but Haley would prefer that to Manny’s (Rico Rodriguez) plan, which was to put the moves on her. Especially trying to convince her that getting David jealous by showing Dylan still texts her is not what an independent woman should do. It’s not the Haley he knows.
Broderick, Mitch’s assistant, scheduled an appointment for him to interrupt their dinner, and Cam thinks he’s a dear. As in wanting to mount his head in his trophy room. And Cameron was right: Broderick was trying to sabotage the relationship. Because he was attracted to Cameron. Must have been Cam’s highly-inappropriate bicycle shorts. He even apologized to him at the office.
BRODERICK: Oh, did I validate you?
CAMERON: [big smile] Oh, yes.
Jay is upset because Gloria “was strapping on the feedbag at Ibiza,” but Jay was saved by an angel. A big, gay angel. The reservation Gloria found under Pritchett was actually Mitchell and Cameron’s. Gloria is absolutely livid, but she can’t be convinced to go into the house. Jay practically begs and pleads, but Gloria is his second wife who is tired of being treated like his first wife. Jay has no choice but to carry her into the house…where the musicians and chef weren’t. She storms out and opens the garage, because that’s where the chef and the musicians were. It turns out she knew what he was doing all along because he assumed she didn’t think he was romantic and that she wasn’t smart. But she won, especially when she gets him the red motorcycle.
JAY: Honey, you can’t win Valentine’s Day. It defeats the whole purpose if you turn it into some silly competition.
GLORIA: Shut up, I win.
At Ibiza, Cameron hints around that Broderick actually had a crush on him instead of Mitchell, who doesn’t believe it. And their romantic dinner goes downhill quickly, as Cam wants Mitch to call him and verify it. Or better yet, go over to Broderick’s house and ask him. However, Broderick texts Mitchell his resignation, saying he acted unprofessionally when he tried to sabotage their relationship. Mitch and Cam wise up and apologize to each other, each secure in the knowledge that Broderick had the crush on them.
Juliana’s and Clive’s date is on. After Clive spits out the appletini Juliana was having. Turns out, Clive does some covert work on occasion for the U.S. government. (“Oh, so you’re a NATIONAL man of mystery.”) Although we’re not certain what Julianna does for a living. (“Usually, I’m pretty good at catching things from women in bars.”) But Juliana is just a bored housewife with a dark secret. And the card she just gave him isn’t a gift card…or is it? And Phil takes the card…of the old woman who was sitting next to Claire. He goes up to the room (the room key was still in the envelope, in case you didn’t know how Phil figured out what room to enter). Claire calls him, and he gets ready on the bed with a bottle of champagne, a bouquet of flowers,…and that’s all. She’ll be right out. And she is…to an empty bed. She calls him back, and Clive tells her she’ll have to find him. Oops. They figure out they’re in the wrong rooms, as the the woman whose room Phil is really will tell him. They meet back at home, where Claire is ready to throw in the towel on the night, but Phil is not dissuaded, since they have their own bedroom to continue the evening. Except Manny has successfully convinced Haley to dump David for what he did, and suddenly there’s music in the background. In the street, actually. Dylan brought his entire band with him to perform. (“Imagine me naked! I imagine you nude!”)
CLAIRE: [in bed with Phil] Am I a bad enough parent to ignore that?
