I laughed a lot - enjoyed the episode. Not the best one but far from the worst. The “pink panther” had me cracking up, and when Mitchell washed the cat clean, he comes out of the bathroom as the wet cat is running away and says, “OK, I do that drunk…I don’t get a scratch.” ---

> [@Bob Ducca](#): > > I wasn’t sure why Jay was purposefully sabotaging time with Gloria at the end there, he seemed pretty into the idea earlier in the story but at the end he was telling Manny to come in and interrupt. What did I miss there? He’s become Al Bundy. Next week Gloria will ask him to rub her tushy and he’ll stick his hand in his waistband and complain. 😃 ---

Serious question: Do Cam and Mitchell ever act like they even like each other anymore? I was also unclear what the ending with Jay meant. Was it supposed to say he had been sabotaging the situation on purpose the whole time but we just learned it now? ---

Was it supposed to say he had been sabotaging the situation on purpose the whole time but we just learned it now? No, she wore him out and he couldn’t take it anymore. I think there’s a lot of honesty and affection between Cam and Mitchell. They drive each other nuts but always have each other’ backs. ---

> [@corkboard](#): > > Give me Claire in a figure skating outfit over Gloria in whatever, any day of the week and twice on Sundays. Please. Fine by me. I’ll take your cast-offs happily and I’m a straight woman. There is just something about Gloria I really love. Probably the hot latina thing. I love those latin lovers. 🙂 ---

> [@Bob Ducca](#): > > It’s funny, Happy Gilmore was on TV the other day and it stars a young Julie Bowen as Gilmore’s love interest. Besides the obvious fashion differences, it’s remarkable how much better looking Bowen is now.[Here’s a pic.](http://www.lobshots.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Julie_Bowen_Happy_Gilmore_Sweater_8.jpg) I mean, she was still cute as hell in this movie - and I fell in love with her when she played Carol Vessey on “Ed”- but she’s aged very very well. I went to high school with her. Not friend or even really aquaintances since she was a senior and I was a freshman, but she’s definitely gotten better looking as she got older. Not that she was ever I unattractive or anything. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/modern-family-february-13-2013-heart-broken/650312.md?page=1)
