Phil, to make him feel better, invited him to stay with them for the weekend but he ends up staying with them for two weeks. Frank's "visit" causes some troubles between Haley (Sarah Hyland) and Alex (Ariel Winter) who now have to share the same room. Claire (Julie Bowen) suggests that Frank should go to a therapist to help him deal with his loss but Phil does not agree. They call Jay (Ed O'Neill) to ask his help and Phil, Frank and Jay arrange a night exit to a bar. Phil and Jay leave Frank there alone, since he found a woman to flirt with. On his way home though, he meets another woman, Jeannie (Peri Gilpin), who he brings home with him. The next morning Frank realizes that Jeannie is a hooker and when he tells Phil, Phil tries without success to make her leave before Claire comes back home. At the Pritchett-Delgado house, Gloria (Sofía Vergara) has trouble finding a nanny for Joe because Manny (Rico Rodriguez) flirts with them. She takes Joe to the park where she meets Andy (Adam DeVine), a male nanny who is also hyper active, and hires him. Jay and Manny are not happy with this decision because Jay finds it weird to have a male nanny and Manny does not want so much energy in his house as he says. Meanwhile, Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitch (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) try to plan their wedding but they do not agree in anything, so they decide to ask for help from their friend Pepper (Nathan Lane) who's working as a wedding planner. Pepper's ideas though are a little extreme for them and not what they want and when they tell Pepper he feels insulted and leaves. Pepper's assistant Ronaldo (Christian Barillas) has some ideas that the couple likes very much although they feel guilty to hire him because Pepper is their friend and they do not want to hurt his feelings. 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「The Help (Modern Family)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
