Season 06 Episode 08
This week's episode of the ABC hit comedy series "Modern Family" will be entitled "Three Turkeys." As the title suggests, the episode will revolve around the stories of the three different, but related families as they prepare for the Thanksgiving holidays.
Over at the Dunphy household, Phil Dunphy has taken over the responsibility of cooking the Thanksgiving dinner this year. He has enlisted the help of his youngest child Luke, to be his sous chef. Phil's wife Claire, as usual doesn't trust Phil to pull off the dinner properly so she decided to make a back-up turkey herself in case Phil and Luke manage to botch the dinner. The same thing happened over Halloween when Claire refused to go with Phil's theme of "Awesomeland" and insisted o going with her own Halloween theme just so they could compete with the neighbours.
Over at the Delgado-Pritchett household, Gloria and Jay had been planning on going on an out-of-town trip. Unfortunately, the trip was cancelled at the last minute. The couple decided to let everyone believe that the vacation pushed through but matters became complicated when the family Thanksgiving dinner was moved to their house. According to ABC Medianet, a mad scramble eventually ensues when Jay and Gloria try to cover their tracks when members of the family come for diner.
Meanwhile, over at the Tucker-Pritchett household, Mitchell and Cameron are still getting the hang of married life and parenting. Mitch has decided that he is tired of being the bad cop when it comes to raising their daughter Lily and he doesn't want her to always see him as the bad guy. When Lily refuses to put on a nice dress for the Thanksgiving dinner, Mitch leaves Cameron the responsibility of dealing with it. Cam, who has always been the softie and not one to rule with an iron hand, thought up an unconventional way to deal with the issue in order to get their stubborn daughter to do what he wants.
"Three Turkeys" airs on Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2014 on ABC. It will be airing a day after the rebroadcast of season 5's episode 13, "Three Dinners" on Tuesday.
