This week's "Modern Family" began with Haley freaking out after seeing her boyfriend at an Anne Hathaway movie with another girl. Claire, meanwhile, is nervous about meeting up with an intimidating old friend played by Minnie Driver, who is basically a big deal career woman now, with a million boyfriends in different countries and a convincing American accent. And Phil, after seeing a bus ad for his real estate services defaced with a drawn-on mustache, experiments with the look by sticking on a fake handlebar that he finds in the house with other Halloween accessories.

Outside of the Dunphy household, Mitchell is flattered when Jay asks him to help Gloria with his lawyer-ly expertise after she gets into a car accident. And Jay and Cameron go to the gym together for a racquetball match and end up having a hugely hilarious moment in the locker room when Jay, in the throes of homophobic anxiety about Cam checking him out, changes his clothes back to back with him, only to end up bending over while both slide down their respective drawers and end up touching bare behinds. Cameron tells Jay it's what's called a "Moon Landing," and then proceeds to kick his no longer bare butt in racquetball.

Meanwhile, Mitchell soon finds out from Manny that Gloria is the one at fault in the auto accident Jay enlisted his help with, because she's a terrible driver. When Mitchell gently brings up the possibility that she may have been speeding, she flips out and storms off, only to sheepishly return and ask for Mitchell's help once she drives her car into a cupcake shop.

And Claire, after learning from her lunch that Minnie Driver took the glamorous path she didn't, brings her friend home to Dunphy chaos. Haley and her boyfriend have made up and are french-kissing, Phil is stuck in a port-o-potty with a fake mustache on his face, and for some reason, Luke is shirtless. Nothing Minnie Driver hasn't seen before, but how is Claire to know that? She rips off Phil's mustache once her friend leaves, and after a small outburst, lapses into that "I appreciate and love my family" reverie that characterizes the end of every episode of "Mod Fam," an otherwise spotless comedy that I enjoy very much.
