Trivia

Luke holds up a picture of Van Gogh and says: "Hey dad, he kind of looks like Uncle Mitchell... if Uncle Mitchell were insane!" At the beginning of season 7, in Modern Family: Summer Lovin' (2015), Mitchell did actually go a little crazy, in the form of a kind of identity crisis, and took up painting while he was out of work and trying to find his career path again. Mitchell even took to wearing a hat that made him look reminiscent of Van Gogh in several of his self portraits.

Goofs

While Phil is discussing "smothering" vs. "sfathering", Claire walks to the island carrying a stack of mixing bowls and there is a full carton of eggs out. It cuts to Phil, and you can see her arms aren't moving. When it cuts back to Claire, she has an empty carton of eggs in her hands. In the next cut to Phil, she's placing a bowl down next to the carton as she picks up the carton with her other hand.
