Phil:

Can people change?

Well, that's a... tough one.

That's a tough one, but I would say "yes", people can change.

That's what I believe, anyway.

And I will until the day I die.

Claire:

You do realize you're proving the exact opposite of your (1) ________?

Phil:

See, she's changed.

She used to (2)__________________________me.

Claire: Come on...

Phil!

Ow! Why is this so loud?

Phil:

Why is this so loud?

Claire:

I don’t know!!

Make it stop.

Phil:

I just installed a sweet home theater system at the family room.

The trouble is – Claire (3) ___________________technology.

Of any kind.

I mean, remotes, cell phones, computers...

Claire:

Haley, have you seen my blue...

Dylan (on the lap-top): Hey, Mrs. Dunphy.

Claire: Oh, hey, Dylan.

Dylan:

You know I can see you, right?

Haley is just in the bathroom, she'll be back in just a minute..

Claire:

Thank you.

Phill: What are we pointing at?

Claire: At the TV.

Phill: Honey, no, I'm sorry.

It's a home theater.

Claire: What, so I, I can't (4)______________________the TV when I wanna watch the TV?

Phill: No. You point at the receiver.

Claire: What's a receiver?

Phill: Imagine our home theater system is a human body.

So, then, the receiver is the brain.

The TV is the face.

Claire: What part are you then?

Phil and Claire on the phone:

– Phil Dunphy.

– Hey, it's me.

– Hey! Listen, I've got a bunch of moms over here who want to watch the talent-show DVD, and I can't get the sound to work.

– Is there a picture?

– Yes.

– Be honest. Did you do that thing where you get (5)__________________and you start pressing all the buttons?

– No.

Claire: I have a theory that Phil installs overly complicated things in the house

just so he (6) ______________________to talk to me like a child.

Last month, it was the thermostat.

Phil to Claire: the snowflake button makes it cold, cold, cold.

"Set temperature" makes it hold, hold, hold.

The little flame makes it...

Phil: Daddy in the hiz-ouse!

Why would you do that to a (7)__________________, very expensive remote?

Claire: Because I (8) _________________________________and it didn't work.

Therefore, it's useless.

Phil: Well, honey, when it comes to anything electronic,

you're not exactly the best student.

Claire: I am very smart.

I had a 4.0 in college.

How about you?

Phil: I was almost that despite my substantial time commitment to cheerleading.

Claire: I thought we agreed not to (9) ________________________ the cheerleading.

Phil: Cheerleading in my college was cool.

The football players were so jealous,

they wouldn't even let me and my buddies

Trevor, Scotty, and Ling go to their parties.

Phil: Seriously, Claire, you owe me an apology for breaking that.

Claire: Okay.

Phil, I apologize for breaking the world's worst remote...

That you bought... Stupidly.

Phil: Excuse me,

But the experts at cnet.com rated it the best remote.

They gave it three-and-a-half mice.

Claire: Wow!

Well, I have an idea.

Let's invite the (10)________________from cnet over

and your old buddies from cheerleading.

And we can have a nerd party.

Phil: Ling is not a nerd.

He built his own helicopter.

And if he was alive today --

Claire: Sweetie, let's not talk about Ling.

It upsets you too much.

Phil: You know what I'm gonna do? Hmm?

I'm gonna buy a new remote -- the same remote.

And just to prove how wrong you are,

I'm gonna teach our dumbest kid how to use it in 20 minutes or less.

Claire: Who's our dumbest kid?

Phil: Luke.

Claire: Luke?

No, Luke understands electronics.

Haley.

Phil: No.

Claire: Yeah. Haley.

Teach Haley to use the remote, and then I'll apologize.

Phil: Haley?

Claire: Mm-hmm.

Phil: Come on!

Phil: Now press the button labeled "activities."

Haley: Where's that?

Phil: It's to the right. To the right.

And then --

and now choose "watch dvd."

Haley: What?!

Phil: Honey, you got to focus.

We've only got 20 minutes.

Pretend -- pretend the mall's closing.

Haley: Dad, this is stupid.

I watch TV on my computer.

Why do I have to learn this?

Phil: Because your mom doesn't think you can.

Haley: Nobody can!

Phil: Haley, listen to me. Listen to me.

I know this seems impossible, but this is for all those times,

that mom told you she was right... And you knew she was wrong.

Haley: I'll do it.

Phil: That's my girl.

Phil: Haley, you ready?

Haley: Let's do this.

Claire: Turn on the TV.

Phil: Nice.

Claire: Mute it.

Un-mute it.

Put it on DVD.

Skip forward.

Haley: Wait. Um...

Claire: Okay. Back to TV.

Phil: Face!

Claire: (11) ______________________________, Phil.

Let's see what happens to little Haley when I do this.

Haley: Ho! Ooh!

Claire: Face.

Haley: Dad, w-what do I do?

Phil: Don't panic. (12)____________________________________.

Just -- just think.

Claire: Give up? Give up.(13)___________________________.

Phil: Haley...

Haley: Okay, uh, let's see...

You put the remote onto TV mode

And then pre input till you get HDMI-1 and...whoo! I did it!

Phil: She did it!

Claire: Fine,(14)______________________________.

Everybody in this house is smarter than me.

Phil: No, honey, (15)_________________________________.

I taught Haley how to use the remote in 20 minutes.

So think how fast you can learn it.

Haley: What's that supposed to mean?

Phil: See what I'm saying?

Claire: Haley, sweetie, wake up

Haley: What?

Claire: I need you to teach me to use the TV.

Haley: Now?

Why can't dad teach you?

Claire: Because we're married.

Haley: That way.

Yeah. And then press --

Claire: Mnh. I got it.

***

I did it!
