The episode features the first appearance of Javier, Manny's biological father and Gloria's first husband, played by Benjamin Bratt. The episode was rated 4.1/11 (the highest since the first episode) and had positive reviews. ==Plot== Gloria (Sofía Vergara) is less than pleased with Jay's (Ed O'Neill) reaction to the arrival of Javier (Benjamin Bratt), Manny's (Rico Rodriguez) infamously unreliable dad. Gloria talks Jay into allowing Javier to stay the night after Javier shows up a day late to visit Manny. Javier calls in a favor and takes Manny and Jay to a baseball field at night. The next day, Javier shows up with motorcycles and says they are for Jay and him to ride. Gloria forces Manny to go to school and has a discussion with Jay that he is now being seduced by Javier's manner just as she was in the past. Jay denies it but waits by the phone for Javier. Meanwhile, Phil (Ty Burrell) is suffering from kidney stones. While suffering from the pain, Luke (Nolan Gould) takes advantage to confess to breaking the glass coffee table which cost the Dunphys their hired help when he blamed it on her (and who was deported as jobless). Phil's dramatics leave Claire (Julie Bowen) no other choice but to call for the hot firemen to rush him to the hospital. Claire dresses up, wearing a revealing top and tight jeans to look nice much to Phil's dismay. Phil ends up in the hospital to have the stones removed. He plans on taking advantage of the guilt Claire feels for flirting with the firemen but it is short-lived, as she discovers the very attractive patients a couple of rooms down that Phil visited while in the hospital. Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) have a harder time than Lily as they attempt to sleep train her. Mitchell discovers Cameron cries all night listening to Lily cry and introduces Lily to Brian De Palma's ''Scarface''. While Mitchell is trying to use the Ferber method of getting an infant to learn to sleep on their own, Cameron keeps running to the room - making Mitchell force him to return to their own bedroom. Mitchell comes home in the afternoon to keep Cameron from indulging Lily. They struggle a bit as Cameron goes to Lily's room - when Mitchell suggests they go to the hospital, Cameron starts thinking of the firemen and approves. The episode wraps up with a reference to the opening bit - the kids have been told to act like adults and Alex remarks that if they're to act like the adults in their family, how hard could it be?〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/listings.aspx?id=20091218abc09 )〕 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「Up All Night (Modern Family)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
