This was the first episode where I've ever really noticed Ty Burrell's blinking problem. It was really obvious when he was driving around on his hugicidal rampage.

last 3 minutes with the godfather homage was great.

everything else was terrible. nothing remotely interesting going on with phil or mitch and cam. jay being to his mother-in-law what phil is to him seemed like it could be ok but it didn't go anywhere. just ended with him saying what amounted to "everyone chill." and the plot about gloria's sister. ...how are the jokes about her not knowing what an indoor washer/dryer are even remotely funny. she knows english, has seemingly visited the us before, her mother is a fully capable human being. but they push ridiculous idiotic columbian stereotypes with the sister because...why? felt so damn vapid and unfunny, like your sort-of friend trying to make a joke and having it just collapse in on itself due to how terrible and opposite-of-funny it is. I could overlook so much of the thin writing and just enjoy the milder jokes if there weren't so many instances of just the complete inverse of comedy.

yeah the whole sister plot really fell flat with me. "where is the river to do the wash" cmon...

and the payoff of jay saying that it was suppose to be her instead of gloria was just ya ok...and they start fighting over it...

the whole thing was just unfunny.

that was the first time i noticed it as well. I knew he always kind of blinked like that but I thought it was just his character. Does he have a problem? I know my grandpa constantly squint/blinks like that too but i've never asked him about it.

I loved the fact this episode for once had no bitching between Cam and Mitchell. That was the only thing that kind of bugged me so far this season.

Wonderful season so far.

Wait, didn't they just do an episode about Alex's boyfriend? Why did Gloria say she didn't have a boyfriend at the psychic?

Yesterday's episode was pretty funny. But I think the ending flew over my head, why did Jay pass up dat ass? Was he hurting or something?

Loved the Tiny Pink Panther song. Dylan is such a moron and random character on the show. Hahaha.

They broke up because she thought he was gay.

Gloria was smokin' in that episode.

Yeah, I was confused by that too. Did they cut a scene or something?
 
What I took away from it was that Gloria and Jay's storyline was meant to put to rest the idea that she's with him for money and he's with her for sex. They both genuinely love each other and their family. I mean, I had come to that conclusion already but it's easy to think so I imagine it still hung in the back of a lot of peoples minds. This is why it showed her so eager to have sex and it showed him so conflicted by the desire to genuinely help his family despite the opportunity for sex.

For some reason I thought they got back together at the end of that episode.

Dylan living with Cam and Mitchell has so much potential. I'm looking forward to what storylines it brings.

are Cam and Mitchel just very-friendly roommates

Because the last episode really seem to hint that!

What do you mean? Sorry, I haven't watched the last episode because here in Italy we are still at the end of season 3, but I'm really curious since Modern Family is my favourite TV series and Cam (and his relatioship with Mitchell) is what makes me like the show so much.

I'm pretty sure the storyline was killed in this episode.

It was a joke, it was a Valentine episode and you see all the couples being affectionate with each other/having sex, while Cam and Mitchell don't even get to kiss.

I finally got around to watching the newest episode. Great stuff, definitely one of the best this season. I was lolling throughout.

I'm late, but thanks for the answer. So, that's that problem again, i think I'm fine with it, there are already a lot of awesome episodes when they show affection to each other and I'm sure that there will be many more (I hope) even if they weren't in this specific episode.

I can hardly remember an episode where they are together and they don't fight for some stupid reason or aren't mean to each other.

Also, last episode was awful.

Mmm...I don't remember episodes when they are seriously mean to each other but obviously I can't remember everything, but for sure I remember episode 4 on season 2, the scene in the bathroom, episode 12 on season 2, the morning after the possible child announcement, episode 3 on season 3, the beach scene. This are some of my favourite moments but I'm sure that there are some others. Not that I will complain if there were more moments of affection between them.
