Season 9, Episode 1 -  Aired September 27, 2017

When Jay takes the whole family on a vacation to a houseboat, he hopes to create memories that will last long after he's gone. Meanwhile, Mitchell runs into an old flame, Cameron tries to stay out of the sun, and Phil and Claire want to be more adventurous.

Quote from Cameron

Gloria: Ay, no.
Phil: What am I looking at?
Cameron: Okay, relax. You all act like you've never seen a caftan before. I just needed full breathable coverage today.
Mitchell: The fact that it looks so great is just a bonus.

Quote from Lily

Joe: What's that?
Lily: "Groovy Guppies." I'm gonna binge-watch the last season.
Joe: I never heard of it.
Lily: Get out of whatever your mommy's got you doing. Your life is about to change.

Quote from Phil

Luke: But if you're looking for something fun, the rental guy gave us this pamphlet.
Claire: Thanks. We already got one, but... Oh. Yours is different. Parasailing, wakeboarding, jetpacking?
Phil: Ours has sunrise chair yoga, watercolors at water's edge, and something called cloud study?
Luke: Yeah, they gave that one to Grandpa, too.
Claire: We got the old people one?
Phil: No! Why would they do that?
Haley: Looks like you guys got some fluffy ones out today. That one looks like a bunny.
Phil: Oh, yeah.

Quote from Gloria

Gloria: Oh, wait. Look. There's that nice lake butler that helped me earlier with my bags. Señor. Señor. Could you take care of our kids for a couple of hours? I will pay you double what you make working for the lake.
Ben: Seriously? You know me. We rode to the airport together.
Cameron: Can you watch our kids or not?
Ben: Actually, I'm kind of, uh... Alex? [motor revs] Any food allergies I should know about?

Quote from Claire

Phil: This is fun. Just the two of us.
Claire: Yeah. And the walking sticks are a real game changer.
Phil: Hold the phone. We've hit a vista.
Claire: Oh.
Phil: Looks like you're not the only mountain chickadee around here.
Claire: You spotted one?
Phil: When it's your turn, note her black bib.
Claire: Okay. Oh, my God.
Phil: Isn't she majestic?
Claire: Phil, we're them. We're the cover of the old people's pamphlet.
Phil: Well, that's a fine "How do ya do."
Claire: Oh, even this guy wouldn't say that!

Quote from Luke

Haley: [aside to camera] We walked around that whole island. No hot boys, girls... nothing. Just a bunch of birds.
Luke: And not even hot birds.

Quote from Jay

[as Jay applies sun cream to Phil's back:]
Phil: It tickles!
Jay: Listen, Phil.
Phil: I know, I know. This never happened.
Jay: Oh, it happened. Never forget how these strong father-in-law hands gave you pleasure.

Quote from Alex

Manny: Ow! I got a splinter in my pinkie!
Alex: I think we have a time of death on Manuel.

Quote from Luke

Manny: Shut up! It's your fault for making me rub those sticks together so fast.
Alex: My fault? We wouldn't even be out here if it weren't for these two lizard brains not being able to keep it in their pants.
Luke: You're just jealous because we don't hate ourselves for being attracted to other people.
Alex: Please! I'm not accepting a psych evaluation from somebody who texted me for help getting out of the bathroom this morning.
Luke: Boat locks are different!

Quote from Manny

Haley: He's right, you know. This is your first time bringing a boy on vacation, and the second he sat down with the whole family, things started to get a little too real for you. So you started to pick Ben apart so you could justify pushing him away.
Alex: I don't think I do that. Do I do that? I do do that.
Manny: When you think about it, I'm in a similar situation. College is getting a little real, and maybe I'm nervous about a whole new group of people rejecting me, so I hid Manny away. After all, [voice breaking] can't hurt a man they'll never meet.
Luke: Ugh. I miss Manuel.
