Modern Family Quotes from "Egg Drop"

Luke and Manny have a huge school project to design the best capsule that would protect an egg in a two-story drop, but when Claire and Jay catch wind of it, their own competitive drives kick in… and eventually take over. Meanwhile, Phil solicits the help of Haley and Gloria to sit as plants in the audience during a huge real estate presentation he has put together, and Mitch and Cam meet with prospective birth mothers.

Here are the quotes:

Phil: I want people to leave excited.

Haley: Oh, I think people will be excited to leave.

Alex: That design is my intellectual property.

Luke: What if I'm the container?

Manny: Aren't we all just fragile eggs?

Manny: There was life in those eyes, it was haunting.

Mitchell: Claire is the son my dad never had.

Jay: She's knee-deep in Luke's egg drop project.

Mitchell: We're meeting with perspective birth mothers.

Mitchell: You didn't need help carrying six scones.

Cam: You and me can't make a baby.

Phil: I need you to do a sound check for me.

Mitchell: We promised we would show her son all 52 states.

Cam: We're saving from a life searching for East Dakota.

Jay: I had to get in Claire's head.  

Mitchell: We're a little rusty.

Cam: I really am a clown.

Mitchell and Cam:  Don't go breaking my heart!

Gloria: That was not here!

Phil: A salesman's salesman!  A realtor's realtor!

Gloria: They are not stopping because I'm Latina.

Haley: Or that wasn't a cab.

Phil: I guess nobody needs a mouse pad.

Claire: I made the eggs that made you.

Cam: I wouldn't be a celbration without cider.

Cam: I can sing.

Gloria: All you do is put me on a pedestal.

Jay: We're going up another level.

Alex: They had as much to do with this project as the Manhattan Project.

Jay: You came out of the womb like that.

Alex: You're all just playing for second.

Haley: My feet look fat from this angle.

Modern Family Quotes from "Punkin Chunkin"

It's Thanksgiving on Modern Family and the family members ask "what if?"

Phil wonders whether he would have been a better person, father and husband, if he had applied himself more. Jay (Ed O'Neill) decides Manny (Rico Rodriguez) could use a little more constructive criticism, if only to toughen him up and improve his chances when he becomes a man. And Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) takes it personally after a well-meaning Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) questions the veracity of some of his more fanciful childhood stories.

It all comes to a head at Thanksgiving with the family divided between the “Dreamers” and the “Pritchetts."

Here are the quotes.

Phil: At least buy me dinner first!

Phil: He was the sweet kid who lived next door.

Phil: Why hug when you can man shake.

Cam: I think I have to tell my Punkin Chunkin Story.

Cam: The pumpkin sails through the air, goal post to goal post.

Manny: My juices were really flowing on this one.

Jay: Centerpieces for starters.

Jay: This thing is a horn of ugly.

Haley: Ease up it's a holiday.

Kenneth: I'm in town to buy a blimp.

Kenneth: What would Phil Dunphy do?

Phil: He's me and he's spectacular.

Haley: Saying nothing isn't lying.

Mitchell: It was a supportive Wah Wah

Cam: Rain or shine, there's always a bumper crop of stories.

Phil: I bet this is how the French do Thanksgiving.

Luke: Why aren't we the jillionaires?

Manny: I think this might be a job for cumin.

Claire: Do you know what is illegal in Europe? Nothing!

Phil: Sometimes I need to be pumped up and frilly.

Phil: You're folding my dreams!

Phil: I love your "I Love You", getting sick of your but.

Manny: You hit those potholes pretty hard.

Jay: I saw them.

Jay: It's great and it's grrrrrrrrrrreeeeaaat

Manny: He said it was a swing and a miss.

Phil: The real Head Scratcher TM

Phil: It's like a 1,000 tiny angels are line dancing on my scalp.

Phil: Let's settle this, Dreamers vs. Pritchetts.

Jay: I'm just trying to get the kid ready for life.

Gloria: We only hvae one pumpkin and we just chunked it.

Manny: Maybe if this works, we should launch my centerpeice next.

Claire: Three more seconds and you would've got away with it.

Shots of the Dunphy's Van from 'Modern Family'

Real Estate agent Phil Dunphy is on the cutting edge, or so he thinks.

Last night, he decided to get the family van wrapped with an advertisement for his real estate business.

Let's say it attracted a lot of attention.
