‘Best Men’

Season 4, Episode 17 -  Aired February 27, 2013

Mitchell and Cameron's best girlfriend, Sal, drops in out of the blue with surprising news. Meanwhile, Jay and Gloria are surprised when Manny gets in trouble in art class, Claire has a rare bonding moment with Haley, and Phil helps Luke talk to a girl he likes.

Quote from Sal

Sal: What the hell got into me?
Cameron: Besides the bartender's tongue?
Mitchell: Yes. Yes, well, that was a little inappropriate. But let's not overreact. It's perfectly natural to have a panic attack before making a big life decision.
Sal: What if it's the wrong decision? What if Tony's not the guy? What if he's the guy? Or him? He is cute. When did he come in?

Quote from Sal

Cameron: Okay, you need to focus, Sal. You are about to make a sacred, lifelong commitment.
Sal: Aah! You are not making this better! [phone rings] Oh, God, it's Tony. I'm supposed to pick him up and drive him to the wedding? [silence] Everybody shut up for a second! Okay, you know what? I'm gonna marry him. What's the worst that can happen? I get a divorce. People do it all the time. [phone rings again] Oh, you're suffocating me!

Quote from Claire

Haley: So you wanna go back to that vegan place?
Claire: Ooh. Leather jacket. Can't take the hate.

Quote from Phil

Valerie: So how is the big date going?
Phil: I don't know.
Valerie: Simone was so nervous. When they were chatting on the computer, I had to write everything for her.
Phil: That's so funny. I did the same thing for Luke.
Valerie: So the whole time we were talking to each other?
Phil: Wait, does that make this our date?
Valerie: Well, a good father, funny, handsome. A girl could do a lot worse.
Phil: [high-pitched laugh]

Quote from Gloria

Gloria: I think this is broken. We're gonna have to find another spot.
Jay: No, we'll be late for the movie. Are you sure you're doing it right?
Gloria: We both know I know how to use a credit card.

Quote from Jay

Jay: We gotta get home. Look. Manny's notebook. More drawings and a poem, "Ode to Daliya."
Gloria: So those were not my boobs? They were Daliya's boobs?
Jay: Yep. This is not a "Nude descending a staircase," this is a "Nude vacuuming a staircase."

Quote from Gloria

Haley: You shouldn't play with your food.
Claire: What are you doing here?
Haley: I knew you were upset I left, and I felt bad, so I came back.
Claire: You're here out of guilt?
Haley: I know. I'm growing up.

Quote from Claire

Haley: Why are you rolling your eyes at me? I'm doing a nice thing.
Claire: Because I want you to be here because you want to be here.
Haley: Okay, you're being really needy right now. Oh, my God. Are you going through the change?
Claire: Stop asking me that every time I express an emotion. And no, I am not. It's just so damn hot in here.

Quote from Phil

Valerie: Oh, my God, Phil, you are hilarious.
Phil: Yep. That's how I got my wife of 20 years. Could we get the check, please? Oh, I got this.
Valerie: Ooh, funny and generous. If my husband were more like you maybe I'd still be married.
Phil: Well, if my wife were here, she'd want me to be clear that I'm fully committed to her. You know that, right?
Valerie: What?
Phil: No, I just wanna make sure, because you unbuttoned a button, and I love my wife, so...
Valerie: You were the one who was flirting and saying we're on a date.
Phil: That was a joke, but I'm- I'm sorry if I misled you at all.
Valerie: Thank you.
Phil: But there was a lot of touching.
Valerie: I touched your shoulder for a second.
Phil: No, it was more of a stroke, like this... Okay. I'm so sorry for touching your hand with my boob. I mean my boob with your hand.

Quote from Gloria

Jay: Okay, back away from the nanny.
Gloria: Oh, my God, it looks like a Madonna video in here!
