It's the perfect plan! Until you sober up.

Claire and Phil have a bad case of egg seller's remorse come morning. Mitchell's also having doubts. The entire family chimes in on the subject at brunch. Everyone is yelling at everyone. Mitchell and Claire escape the chaos to have a private heart-to-heart under a table. They agree to drop the egg idea. Later, Cam and Mitch spy on Lily playing in her room.

Some neighborhood kids invited Manny to play football. Into order to assure that his boy makes the big game, Jay sabotages his plans to attend a play with Gloria. He figures his wife will ultimately thank him for this deception. He figured wrong.

Manny gets hit with a walloping tackle after stopping to grab a heads-up penny he found on the football field. He and his mom have been collecting them for years. Once they get to 100, they'll use all those lucky pennies to buy a lottery ticket.

Jay is moved by all the memories Gloria and Manny have enjoyed during their lengthy coin quest. He doesn't want to see it end. That's why he secretly swipes four pennies from the pile so the good times can continue. These guys may never win the lottery, but that doesn't mean they aren't one lucky family.
