‘Pig Moon Rising’

Season 8, Episode 17 -  Aired March 15, 2017

The extended family gets caught in a web of lies after Mitchell accidentally knocks over an urn filled with the ashes of Cameron's beloved pet pig, Lily. Meanwhile, Luke waits for the news of whether he's been admitted to Phil's alma mata, while Gloria is starting to get upset at the prospect of Manny leaving for college.

Quote from Jay

Lily: Why is your finger pink? This isn't mine. I knew the perspective was off.
Haley: It's Cam's fault. He made me copy it from a photo.
Cameron: You know what? I accidentally destroyed the original, and I couldn't live without it.
Mitchell: Mitchell Pritchett, Parenting Magazine. How is forging a child's painting any less egregious than replacing a pig's ashes with Mrs. Pasternak's dead husband?
Cameron: It's not. I'm a hypocrite. My whole life is a lie. Carlos isn't really in the Miami Sound Machine. He's just a... a basic dog groomer. [to Haley] Save your money. I couldn't get you your tickets.
Claire: You're spending money on tickets when you should be spending money on ticket... you know what I mean.
Haley: The concert tickets were for Mitchell.
Jay: So you didn't get my tickets?
Mitchell: No.
Gloria: So you didn't get my tickets.
Jay: The website was insane. You'd need the reflexes of a mongoose.

Quote from Luke

Luke: Guys, guys. I've got this. Guys. I talked to Judge Tager. He'll make your parking tickets disappear in return for a couple of Cubans.
Jay: You took three.
Luke: The other one is for the security guard at the club. He moonlights where Estefan's playing tonight. He'll meet you by the stage door.
Gloria: Thank you for fixing Jay's lies.
Luke: We all struggle with the truth. Like last Thursday when I stalled Jay at the club so you could get Joe out of the doggy door.
Joe: She locked us out, and the stove was on.
Luke: And you two.
Cameron: You know a guy at a club that can help us?
Luke: No. Just talk more. 90% of your problems would be solved if you just discussed things.
Cameron: The Vanderkoff is a knock-off.
Mitchell: I burnt a hole in the knock-off, and I had replaced it with a real one.
