Scene : At basketball game

Manny : Ooh, the kiss Cam! Wouldn't it be embarrassing if the camera was on us and then the crowd started...

Alex : We're related.

Manny : Not by blood.

Alex : Touch me, and there will be blood.

Phil : Not us.

Gloria : What's wrong with you?

Phil : It's the kiss-cam... When it lands on you, you're supposed to
kiss. (Camera points at them) It's my wife's dad's second wife, so, legally okay, but still
weird. That was awkward. And...we're back.

Gloria : Ay, come on. It's not a big deal.

Claire : Thank God for caller I.D. So you don't have to talk to your
wife. Oh, we're gonna talk, mister. We're gonna talk and talk...

Alex : Dad! Mom saw you on TV! You're dead.

(Commentary)

Phil : Here's the thing. The kiss-cam is only supposed to be for the enjoyment of the people at the game! They never show that on TV. What people do in the privacy of their own sports arena should be their own business.

(Cut the scene)

Jay : So, in '36, I worked at my grandfather's office-supply
business. You know, your ink, your staples, your legal pads. Am I going too fast for you?

Luke : I fell asleep for second. Did you do anything interesting in
the '30s?

Jay : Well, one summer, I swept up hair at my other grandfather's barber shop.

Luke : Ugh, you're killing me!

Jay : What do you want?

Luke : I don't know. Brian Beckwith's grandfather marched in Los Angeles.

Jay : Artie Beckwith? He couldn't walk two feet without
complaining. He marched on streets of Los Angeles?

Luke : He told Brian he did. Against Great depression with Charlie Chaplin .

Jay : Charlie Chaplin ? Guess who cut his hair.

Luke : Who?

(Commentary)

Jay : Do you know who cut Charlie Chaplin's hair? Neither
does Luke's teacher.

(Back to the scene)

Luke : So, the barber shop was in Los Angeles?

Jay : Okay.

Luke : Did you cut any other famous hair?

Jay : Oh, yeah, Al Capone, Albert Einstein, Henry Ford. Many famous Hollywood celebrities.

Luke : Awesome.

(Cut the scene)

Scene : Pritchett-Tucker household

Mitchell : *we love to play in Lily's room, we don't need any
milk.* Okay, you know what, Lily? I am a man. I am going into the
kitchen to get your milk. Whaaaaaaaaa! Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah! Ohh!

(Cut the scene)

Scene : At the wedding

Cameron :*Ave Maria. Gratia plena. Maria, Gratia plena. Maria, Gratia plena. ave, ave Dominus. Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus et benedictus fructus ventris ventris tui, Jesus, ave
Maria*

(Cut the scene)

Jay : Then one day, Charlie Chaplin shows up. He says, "Can
you take a little off the top for my friend here?" And it's John Barrymore.

Luke : No way.

Jay : Greatest singer that ever lived... after Sinatra. I'll fight any
man who says different.

Luke : My dad says the greatest singer who ever lived is Peabo
Bryson.

Jay : Then I guess I got to fight your dad.

Luke : Yeah. I guess.

(Cut the scene)

Scene : At basketball game

Alex : Luke says grandpa wants to fight you.

(Cut the scene)

Scene : Dunphy household

Claire : Why does everything have to suck?!

Haley : Let's just do the picture another day. I think I'm getting a
pimple.

Claire : No! Do you know how long it took me to book this
photographer? Maybe by the fireplace.

Haley : Yeah. That's a classic old-person spot for a portrait.

Claire : Yeah, if I'd ever bothered to paint that hideous Wall.

(Commentary)

Phil : Claire is a perfectionist, Which sometimes is a good thing, Like when it comes to picking a husband. Sometime it's a bad
thing, Like when, uh, everyone else sees something beautiful, And all she sees is the teeny, tiny flaw.

(Back to the scene)

Claire : No. No. No. Hi. (Calls Uncle Mitchell) My house is a disaster. Can we do this
picture at your place?

(Scene change : Pritchett-Tucker household)

Mitchell : Yeah, yeah, that's... that's not gonna work.

(Cut the scene)

Scene : Pritchett household

Claire : Maybe one more layer... and tight, really tight. Dad, can
you call them again?

Jay : I just did. They're on their way. Game went into overtime.

Claire : I know, but we're losing the light, And the photographer
has got to get to a bar mitzvah in 10 minutes. Oh, red wine.
Really? Now?

Jay : You know, honey, I think you're getting a little too uptight
about this.

Claire : Mm-hmm.

Luke : It's hard to breathe. Oh, you're fine.

Jay : What'd you do to him? He's turning blue.

Claire : Yeah, but his clothes will stay white.

Gloria : We're home!

Claire : Oh, thank God!

Phil : Hello!

Gloria : Manny, let's go change. Mwah!

Phil : Hey. There's my beautiful wife. I know you're mad at me,
and I know this foam finger can't map for everything...

Claire : Honey, you just go change, and we'll talk about what you
did later.

Phil : Okay. Hey... Thank you so much for those tickets.

Jay : Gloria tells me you had a real good time.

Phil : Not really. No, I didn't. God, I love your daughter. Ohh! I
should... I should come by and kiss that step... fix that step.

Mitchell : Ugh, you're acting like I wanted to destroy the house.

Cameron : No, I just think it's odd that the majority of things you
destroyed were sent to us by my mom.

Mitchell : Oh, okay, okay, okay, So while I'm fighting off that filthy
creature, I actually stop and say, "oh, you know what? Here's the
opportunity I've always been looking for "To destroy our kitschiest objects."

Cameron : "kitschiest"? Oh, she's gonna love that. You know, if
you would have just come with me to the wedding, none of this
would have happened.

Mitchell : Okay, so you are angry.

Cameron : Mitchell, I get it. You're terrified of small talk...and
birds. You're just lucky that pigeon didn't want to chat you up about the weather. Hello, Jay.

Jay : Hello, guys.

Claire : Oh, God! Oh, you look like the guy from "dance fever"!

Phil : Thank you.

Jay : Deney Terrio. Cleveland, Ohio.

Claire : Dad, really. That is not a compliment. That's why I wanted you to try those on earlier. Turn around.

Haley : The picture can't happen today. My pimple's getting
worse.

Claire : Oh, honey, I am so sorry. Can you stand?

Haley : Yeah?

Claire : Well, then, the picture's happening.

Haley : It's all anybody's gonna see!

Claire : I wouldn't be so sure about that. Did you get a look at her dress?

Phil : What?! Why would I look at her dress? I love you!

Photographer : Uh, Mrs. Dunphy. The sun is setting.
