Storyline

Did you know

Goofs
To get the party started, Mitchell and Cameron try dancing to "Brick House" on a hand cranked emergency radio. When the power runs out, the song slows to a crawl and stops. That would happen if it were a record player or a tape player, but not to a radio; the song should have stopped abruptly when the power was cut. In addition when the song resumes it picks up where it left off rather than later in the song as a broadcast would.

Quotes
Jay Pritchett: A damn tree's blocking the street. I need my chainsaw.
Phil Dunphy: Jay, I know you didn't ask my advice...
Jay Pritchett: I'm glad you noticed that. I've been stuck here all day. Now, I'm going to that bar! The last thing I need's another delay. Where the hell's the chainsaw?
Phil Dunphy: It's right there.
Jay Pritchett: [Thunder crashes; Jay sighs and hangs his head] Oh, I'm not gonna get there, am I?
Phil Dunphy: We don't have to talk about it.
Jay Pritchett: Old Navy buddy of mine, Big Jake, died today. Guys in my unit have a tradition whereas, if one of us goes, the rest of us, no matter where we are, find the nearest Irish pub, and at 7:00, silently toast the fallen.
[Phil pushes him a chair and Jay sits]
Jay Pritchett: Started with ten guys. Four of us left. Probably should have told Gloria about it, but I don't know. We... We all went through some rough stuff together... Hard to talk about.
[Phil has been pulling out drinks and St Patrick's Day decorations to build a makeshift Irish pub. Jay checks his watch and silently makes his toast]
Jay Pritchett: Thanks.
[Phil goes to leave, but Jay grabs a second cup]
Jay Pritchett: Phil.
[They both silently drink and watch the rain]
