Plots(1)
It could not be more perfect that Phil's birthday and the release date of a hot new product coincide, and he wants nothing so much as to be one of the first people to get one; this is Claire's mission. Meanwhile, before coming to Phil's party, Mitchell is preoccupied with a new found desire to toughen up, Cameron gets himself involved in a neighbor's marital problems, and it's Jay against Gloria and Manny in chess.

Since the sixteenth episode, it feels like something's been missing. Phil’s spiraling depression was highly entertaining, and the chess sessions were enjoyable, but as usual, Mitchell and Cameron fell short. It just lacked that extra "something" for me to give it five stars. "Buddy! Think the problem is, you're not jumping from high enough. You should get on top of the garage." "Alex, stop trying to kill your brother." / "I'm a very good chess player. But I'm a better wife."
