A Real Conversation Like This Could Only Happen on TV

Ed O’Neill, Grandpa: You know I used to go to the houses of my friends, I’d see their kids trophies, and it used to bug me, you know, because there was never a trophy in my house… I know you’re not supposed to care, but it’s kinda cool to have a kid in your house who’s the best at something, you know what I mean?

Ty Burrell, Dad: Yeah, our kids are great…

Julie Bowen, Mom: They’re the greatest.

Dad: Gosh were blessed.

Mom: We are, but ahmm, are they the best at something? I’d have to think about that…

Dad: Well, Alex is great at every single thing she tries, so you know… she’ll find her specialty.

Mom: And Haley is… (flash back to daughter Haley rubbing a cell phone battery on her head after her geeky sister Alex has told her she can recharge it with the static electricity from her hair).
Dad: … Haley is so pretty!
Mom: Gorgeous!
Dad: Oh, gosh, I mean…
Mom: Gorgeous, gorgeous girl!
Dad: So she can meet someone who’s the best at something!
Mom: That’s right.

Dad: And then, uh, I guess that leaves Luke…We dropped the ball a little bit on that one.
Mom: Yeah, a little.
