The episode was written by Vali Chandrasekaran, and directed by Alisa Statman. In the episode, Phil, Claire and Alex get a call from Alex's school to meet the principal and they are sure that they want to announce them that Alex is going to be the valedictorian of her class. But when they get there, they find out that there are going to be two valedictorians, with the second one being Sanjay, Alex's competition on school for many years. Gloria studies to become an American citizen, something that Jay likes and tries to help her but Javier does not like the idea and tries to prevent her from doing it. Mitchell and Cameron join a protest against a local restaurant (even though they love eating there) that does not support gays to prove their friends that they are still very political about gay rights. "Patriot Games" received positive reviews from the critics. ==Plot== Alex (Ariel Winter), Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire (Julie Bowen) are called into the principal Brown's (Andrew Daly) office and they assume that the principal wants to announce them that Alex is going to be the valedictorian of her class. Alex's rival though, Sanjay (Suraj Partha), also gets called with his parents and the principal announces them that they are going to be co-valedictorians, something that they refuse to accept. Alex and Sanjay convince the principal to let them compete over one last grade, for gym class, and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet), being the gym teacher, will decide which one deserves to be the valedictorian. One day before the competition, Sanjay goes to Alex's house and tells her that he likes her and that she is the reason he can attend the college because she was always pushing him to study more and become better. Alex believes that he only said those things to distract her from winning the race but the next day, Sanjay forfeits the race to prove her he was telling the truth and the two of them end up kissing in front of their parents. Gloria (Sofía Vergara) studies to become an American Citizen, something that Jay (Ed O'Neill) approves and helps her. Javier (Benjamin Bratt), who is visiting to see Manny (Rico Rodriguez), disapproves of what Gloria is doing and he prevents her from doing it by saying that she forgets and rejects her roots. After Gloria finds out that Jay wants her to become American Citizen is because he hates waiting in the long lines at the airport, she decides to abandon the idea. Jay talks to her and convinces her that the airport is actually not the reason he wants her to do it and Gloria takes the test eventually. She passes and officially becomes an American citizen. Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) are at a store with Lily (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) buying things she needs for a school project. They run into Longinus (Kevin Daniels) and Jotham (Matthew Risch) who inform them that they are going to participate in a protest against a local restaurant that is against gay rights. When Longinus and Jotham accuse Cameron and Mitchell not being very political after they adopted Lily, Cameron and Mitchell tell them that they still are and to prove it they will attend the protest too. They get to the restaurant but no one is there for the protest yet so they enter the restaurant. In reality, Cameron and Mitchell love to eat there and they sit to have lunch. On their way out they run into the protest and they join it without letting the rest of the protesters realize that they were actually into the restaurant having lunch. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Patriot Games (Modern Family)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
