'Modern Family' Season 7 Episode 16 Recap

After a week-long misery of waiting, the hit comedy TV series ‘Modern Family’ that everyone loves is back and is set to make you laugh again. This week’s episode titled “The Cover-Up” circled around Phil and Claire Dunphy having lies of their own and covering them up so other would not know about it. Want to know more? Read on as we have a recap of this week’s episode. Warning: Spoilers Ahead!

According to the official synopsis for "The Cover-Up," Claire will join Gloria (Sofia Vergara) on her hot yoga class to relieve some stress, and get more than she bargained for. Gloria, who thought the hot yoga instructor was hitting on her, had asked Claire to go along as buffer. However, once the instructor sees Claire, he starts showering inappropriate attention on her, leaving Gloria baffled and jealous.

Phil, on the other hand, hangs out with a client who is "his type" and is afraid that Claire wouldn't be too happy about it. So instead, he decides to hide the friendship from Claire and starts saying white lies to cover up the reality. Soon, the innocent lies turn into a dangerous web that he cannot escape.

First off is Phil. He is known to have a liking on black women and in this week’s episode; he will be entertaining a new client named Angie who’s attractive, well spoken, and black. He’s reluctant to tell Claire the truth. So instead, he spins that the woman, Angie, is in fact an overweight, Irish senior citizen he can’t tolerate at all.

Meanwhile, Claire thrives on the attention and continues with the yoga classes, even lying to Phil about the gender of the instructor. When the two realize they’ve both been keeping their infatuations secret out of fear, they realize they might as well come clean.

On the other side of the clan is Cam and Mitch trying to persuade their daughter Lily to ride on a bike. Although Cam hopes that seeing him ride side-by-side will inspire her, Lily is adamant that the sport will result in her death.

Newly-retired Jay (Ed O'Neil), on the other hand, has a lot of time on his hands currently and starts making his own web series. However, he becomes obsessed with the internet troll that keeps leaving horrible comments and decides to track them with the help of Manny.
