Plot
Jay (Ed O'Neill) finds himself very disappointed when Claire (Julie Bowen) accepts to have him in his company again, this time as a co-worker. He finds it hard to adjust himself and feels like an obsolete man. Claire, elsewhere, has decided to install an arcade dance machine in which she performs well but finds herself constantly beaten by a co-worker who she has to fire because of his poor results. As Haley (Sarah Hyland) accidentally unplugs the machine, everybody now believes that Claire wants to fire her employee because he beat her and nobody was here when Claire managed to have a higher score than him.
Haley is sad when she learns that Andy has to move back to Utah where his cousin offered him a place to work. At the airport, Andy tells Haley that he appreciated being with her and she tells him he was the first man she ever loved. Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) spend the episode trying to decide who will pick-up Lilly (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) since Cameron found a summer job. After realizing how much Cameron did for them, they decide to join him.
Phil (Ty Burrell) believes he caught Luke (Nolan Gould) under his bed with a girl and does not know how to tell him about the talk but Luke finally simplifies his work as he says that he recently got dumped. At the same time, Alex (Ariel Winter) is back from Caltech for Summer but finds herself ignored by her peers.
As the three families are on a vacation, Mitchell, Claire, and Jay leave messages on each other’s voicemails. The Dunphys fly to New York where their phone is stolen by a woman.
