摩登家庭第四季

Alex收到奶奶的遗物是一个打火机，一开始她百思不得其解。

她和爷爷一起看相片，她看到一张照片里奶奶笑得很开心。

爷爷回忆道：是啊，当时我们喝得烂醉，那是去年的国庆节，你奶奶最喜欢的节日。

普林普顿家搞了烧烤，你奶奶和我喝姜汁玛格丽特喝多了，我们就回家打了个盹，结果错过了那晚的烟花表演。

她头一回错过，她当时特别生气，我为了补偿她，当天晚些时候特意为她办了一场烟火表演，虽然只是在后院用弓弹发射荧光棒而已。

爷爷提醒Alex，奶奶的信还没有被打开：“This is a lighter. It belonged to my favorite actor, Paul Newman. One day, he came into the restaurant where I was waitressing and accidentally left it behind. For the first time in my life, I did something I wasn't supposed to and slipped it into my pocket. One of the customers saw and said, 'don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.' That customer turned out to be the love of my life, your grandfather. So, my Alex, who I love so dearly, who is probably too much like me for her own good, every once in a while, don't be afraid to break the rules. You never know what can happen.”打火机是她偶像留下的东西，是她与此生挚爱的定情之物，是点燃她最爱的烟花秀的导引，是她许多爱恋与美好回忆的载体。

打火机本身是不那么具有收藏价值的东西，因为爱才被赋予特别的意义。

死物再稀奇，譬如钻石，也只是一颗石头而已。

真的觉得这部剧很温馨很有爱 还记得看第一部的时候Lily还是刚领养回来 现在已经那么大了 里面的她好可爱＞＜ 还有热情奔放的Gloria 浓浓的西班牙语口语的英语 还有Alex他们三姐弟 哈哈哈 有个兄弟姐妹吵吵架还是蛮欢乐的 好基友cam&mitchell也好有爱 Gloria's new born baby Jeo 怎么可以那么乖 都不乱哭 好可爱啊！！

还有Manny 整天把自己弄的跟个小大人一样 哈哈哈 Jay &Phill就是典型家庭好男人 爱妻子儿女 努力工作 当然经常也很无奈 哈哈哈 还有好妈妈Clair 总之这部剧还蛮能反应现代家庭的各种温馨小事和烦恼 对于外国家庭这种父母和儿女的相处方式真的觉得很赞耶！

Modern family S4E2Never be afraid to reach for the stars,because even if you fall, you'll always be wearing a parent-chute(parachute)Success is 1% inspiration ,98%perspiration,and 2% attention to detail.S4E3I've always seen life like a serious of doors.sometimes you get to choose the door you go through, sometimes you don't get that choice. But you still gotta walk through . So you can either go kicking and screaming... Or walk through with your head held high .S4E4"I am mad at you because you didn't say anything.""Cause I didn't want to get yelled at.""Well too bad. When you married to me, you're going to get yelled at many times. And you're tough enough to take it. That's what I love about our marriage . We can say whatever we want , but the next day we're still there.＂＂ that's what I like it, too."The minute I stopped caring what other people thought and stared doing what I wanted to do , is the minute I finally feel ...Free!E4S6I'm terrified of motorcycles, but sometimes you have to do things to show the world you're still a man. Oh, she's just sarcastic on the outside . Inside , she's just a fragile little girl. If she wants to get her heart broken by a gay guy, she can do so when she's 18 or 19 and can drink her way through it. He really oughta run things through his head first.What's your return policy?You return, I call the police .In Colombia , if you snoop around the wrong box, you might end up inside that box. S4E7 Making a child is the easy part . The hard part is everything that comes after . Keeping them safe... Making sacrifices for them... And standing by them , even when they let you down .S4E10This's the funny thing about marriage. You fall in love with this...extraordinary person, and over time , they begin to seem ordinary.Sometimes I don't understand people , they do crazy things for the dumbest reasons. They convince themselves it'll all work out...despite all the evidence to the contrary.S4E11New Years is so weird ,the way it makes you think about time. I think that's why people put so much pressure on themselves to have fun. I mean I guess I sorta get it. S4E12There's all kinds of milestones in life, the kind you expect to live through--the first kiss, birthdays, graduations. If you're lucky, a wedding or two, or even a new addition to the family. Then there's the kind you never dreamed you'd get to live through again. And that's the best kind of all.S4E17Raising a kid is like sending a rocket ship to the moon. You spend the early years in constant contact, and then one day, around the teenage years, they go around the dark side and they're gone . All you can do is wait for that faint signal that says they're coming back.Marriage is a promise. It says to the world that you share a love and a commitment to each other that will only grow deeper as the years go by . Never be afraid to go after a girl who's out of your league.S4E18My kids are helpless, but maybe that's okay. Because years from now when they have their own houses, they'll call me on their hologram phones and say,"help me , dad . You're my only hope." When it comes to raising kids, you get what you give.There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange , mixed after we call life... When a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke... Though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns... And more than suspect that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own. S4E20Oh . Dumpy , I can play you like a ukulele, cause you're small and dainty. We all weave a web of lies. Some we tell to try to help the ones we love. Some we tell to try to fool ourselves . And some we tell because , when you're out of bullets and staring down the barrel of a Kalashnikov , the only weapon you've got left I'd guile .E4S22Plus, this is one of the many benefits of being gay . We can be friends with our exes without all the petty jealousy straight people go through .What qualifies someone as a hero? Obviously, a hero has to be someone we respect. A person we look up to. A person who is generous of spirit. Who's willing to grow and learn. Maybe it's the person you love most in the world or the guy who makes the most out of life, no matter what anyone thinks. For me though, the hero in my family is my family. Because of who we are together .

01米球夫夫车顶上的大象和猩猩不可描述太好笑了，菲尔给杰过生日这里有点无聊，迪兰这集硬要在大姐家住的情节实在太讨人厌，这个人物没有一点讨喜之处，不知道大姐喜欢他啥。

02米球夫夫和拉拉父母的交锋超级好笑，菲尔夫妇送大姐去上大学那里看得超级有感触，想起了我自己刚上大学的时候，也像大姐一样，在新环境里感觉到孤独，感觉想家，但是避孕套散落一地的时候还是效果爆炸。

03小卡没工作，承认自己的空虚，重回职场，做自己擅长的工作，拉里的美人鱼尾巴真的很搞笑，真的很给人力量，还有菲尔结扎“not a real man.”04小卡第一天上班被学生同事排挤，米球第一天带孩子兵荒马乱，但两个人回家后可以在一起抱头痛哭，“我们只是需要时间来适应我们的新角色，降低期望值。

”让我想起刚去美国读书的时候，一样痛苦，一样孤独。

还有卢克决定不做魔术师了，菲尔告诉他要相信自己的选择，别在乎其他人的看法，开始做自己想做的事情，这才是真正的自由。

05万圣节专场，米球骗莉莉妈妈是公主，最感人的地方是杰觉得自己老了时，一个伪娘过来搭讪，歌姐看到了之后悄悄走开，并且不让小卡过去，因为杰需要别人的赞赏来增加自信。

06大甩卖，剧情有点无聊，稍微有意思一点的是克莱尔的最后一句：她（歌姐）嫁给了她的木偶（臭脾气老头）。

07海莉因为喝酒被捕被赶出学校，小卡带孩子导致卢克大豆过敏，歌姐和迪迪意外交好，这集剧情也比较无聊，矛盾冲突不够激烈，唯一感人点的是海莉回家时二姐并没有嘲讽，而是安慰了她，但下一秒两人又吵起来了，这就属于预期违背。

08克莱尔和二姐的坦白和和解，克莱尔发现自己把价值和希望寄托在了二姐身上，二姐也坦白自己施加给自己的压力更大，杰去见心理医生不敢承认，他不想失去自己的办公室，那是他唯一的领地，可以关上门读书或者喝酒的地方。

最好笑的是菲尔找了个基佬回家一起看球赛，结果被对方误会，如果这里米球夫夫也加入的话效果会更加爆炸。

09米球夫夫成功守护工院的树，歌姐假装生产救克莱尔于水火，杰担心自己和即将出生的孩子有代沟。

10米球和菲尔斗法，米球识破菲尔的计谋，然后抱着拉里模仿教父，克莱尔投出简历，没有一家要她，在小卡面前崩溃，她想要靠自己挣钱，菲尔坦诚克莱尔建起棒球场很牛逼，并说“这就是婚姻的可笑之处，你爱上了一个卓越优秀的人，但随着时间的推移，却只能看到对方的平凡。

”11新年夜，色情夫妇无意中参加了裸体派对，克莱尔怕他们的爱情会失去激情，就像祖父母一样。

小卡夫妇去基佬吧，第一个吧太年轻无人搭理他们，第二个吧全是老头，他们感受到了年轻的滋味，米球害怕新年，担心离死亡更近一步，讨厌变老的感觉，还有曼尼说的：“你连自己都不喜欢，很难喜欢上别人。

”12曼尼生日，Joe出生，人生的各种里程碑，菲尔说：那是我的宝贝女儿，地球上没有男的能配得上她。

13歌姐这条线观感很差，抢走了妹妹的人生，还一副胜利者的嘴脸，莉莉初现毒舌特质，救父车的翻译太绝了！

菲尔最后在教堂接受洗礼时，模仿教父那段蒙太奇太绝了，尤其是床上的斑马玩具，封神！

14 剧情最无聊的一集，没有观点没有灵魂，印象比较深的是歌姐和二姐去看灵媒，还有菲尔，米球和杰打高尔夫球。

15情人节，克莱尔晕倒，担心自己会变得没用，所以一直想要和菲尔搞色情，杰想和歌姐热情，却一直被各种东西打断，小卡米球模仿菲尔夫妇的酒吧情人节桥段。

16克莱尔参加同学聚会，发现昔日的男神男友成了教授，本来会畅想B面人生，却发现他的老婆变成怨妇，这才觉得菲尔的好，小卡的plan B是Bieber真的笑死，还有杰边追公交车边鼓励曼尼唱歌那里真的很动人，最后给Joe 剃头的罪名兜兜转转到了杰这里，所有世界线串联起来的编剧技巧很厉害。

17曼尼喜欢上小保姆，米球夫妇的好朋友结婚了，双方都在婚前和其他人make out，菲尔父子和另一对母女date，整集都有点无聊，只有最后莉莉的毒舌有点意思：反正我也不喜欢你。

18卢克教米球打球那里真的笑死：你永远都在场上！

克莱尔和小卡争执是否要加喷泉，克莱尔脱衣湿身赢得拉拉裁判的票，菲尔和他爹打电话，请教热水器怎么修，米球和小孩哥打手球，爆杀对方，被其他父母围观。

19米球夫夫莉莉和歌姐在越南米粉店那里太精彩了哈哈哈哈，一下得罪所有人，不愧是全洛杉矶最抓马的同性恋夫妇，还有菲儿夫妇那里，中年版的三个孩子和大姐他们三人一起出现在电梯里时简直笑喷，还有更年幼版的三个孩子出现时，克莱尔说十五年后你再看看吧那里封神！！！

镜头语言也很棒。

20克莱尔和小卡卖房子，小卡对克莱尔说没有人想到事情会发展成这样时，米球把杯子捏爆那里真的笑死，还有曼尼爸爸带回家的女博士实际上在暗暗羡慕歌姐的剧情真的很像金湘玉和佟掌柜的剧情。

21杰写小说，克莱尔发现自己不甘于做家庭主妇，在职业介绍会上觉得很没面子。

22溜冰场特辑，米球的前男友出现与小卡雄竞，克莱尔接受了杰的工作邀约，菲尔教歌姐滑冰，大姐帮助二姐在男生面前找到自信，英雄就是愿意学习和成长的人。

23莉莉平衡木体操得第一名，菲儿一家开房车旅游并在封闭的房车内，三个孩子敞开了心扉，二姐被甩，大姐选拔被刷，卢克考试挂科，而一开始没有人愿意暴露自己生活中的失败和脆弱，最后二姐给卢克辅导功课，大姐和菲尔跳舞的场面真的很温馨。

24菲尔的妈妈去世了，一家人来佛罗里达参加葬礼，杰找到了自己的初夜，小卡混进了当地女人帮，米球去替歌姐打官司，找回了对法律的热爱，“shame”名场面，决定还是要重回法庭，最感人的是奶奶留给二姐的打火机，“不要害怕打破常规，你永远不知道会有什么好事发生。

”

1杰过生日。

我们得谈谈客厅里的那只大象了（明显存在的，但大家都刻意忽视的问题）。

爹地，我好无聊，让汽车跳舞吧。

用小宠物来治愈心里的伤口。

65岁老年得子，很幸福。

这一集很精彩，尤其是菲尔被误认为是已婚同志的时候。

9未成年人饮酒是违法的。

袭警也是犯法的。

众人皆蠢我独聪。

野餐专用树。

——我没哭，只是出了汗。

——是的，你的眼睛出了很多汗。

小胖墩不爱运动，却是直男。

这一集也很精彩，为了保护一棵树不被砍，米奇尔夫夫爬上了树。

工作人员讲究契约精神，到了下班时间，他们就放弃砍树，等下次上班时间再来。

演员都很尽责，演技都很棒。

10要是把我俩比喻成马的话，我知道你是哪部分。

你唱歌就像吸尘器被什么东西卡住了。

家人跟生意不能搞在一起，否则容易翻脸。

11火焰樱桃。

它只是我的一段小情史。

转了四次的黑锅，哈哈。

1720年来深得老婆欢心的诀窍是幽默。

会洗衣服的纤纤玉手。

——我不喜欢你。

——我不在乎。

18享受父子时光。

你只能付出105%的努力，不能付出110%的。

经常对女人说你很美，就会讨她的欢心。

在抚养孩子这件事上，你种什么得什么。

当一个人把整个世界看做一个巨大的笑话，尽管那略显智慧，但他并未察觉，他竟然毫不怀疑，那个笑话其实嘲弄的是他自己，而非别人。

卢克的手球训练法，哈哈。

19不好意思，我的电视坏了，所以我只能看你们的好戏了。

唯恐家里不乱的克莱尔。

24——你好，我是gay。

——你好，我的孙子也是gay。

我们当时爱得死去活来。

胖男人总是找年纪比他大的女人破处？

请不要感觉有任何压力。

不要害怕打破常规，你永远不知道会有什么好事发生。

一季的结束，结尾特别美好，绚烂的烟花犹如每次过年那种普天同庆的喜庆，就如同生命中每一次灿烂的美好，那么的刻骨铭心，那么的具有无与伦比的意思，像是登台演出，像是被所有人羡慕眼光所笼罩的那一刻，而跟那一样美丽的，最后一刻的黄昏和摇椅，完美的夏日，一切都是那么美好，那么的沁人心脾，好想生活在那里，过不完的夏天，漫长的海岸线，人烟稀少的住宅。

不断寻找的，努力的，发现的，一切还是无法打破生活的梗长，那种望不到头的日月，那些无尽的烦忧，那些无法使我充满希望的度过接下来的几十年。

一生中纠结的事有很多，缺少金钱，不够完美的容貌，得不到情人的全身心投入，或是失去本来所拥有的，有的不多失去的也不少，到了一定的年龄，有些事情身不由己。

不停的在想很多事情，却也突然明白，我要的努力，是在能力范畴之内的，其余的许多东西，可能真的不需要过多的苛求与索取，要想明白这些，放弃许多事情，真的是很不容易，不要把太多的事情放在眼里，真的很难，但可能这就是意思吧，一切都没有意思，活在其他的介质里，想要摆脱一切，真的是很难呢

#12Phil: Nice game of chicken, Claire. She's gone!Claire: She is coming back. I am almost positive.Phil: Why do I listen to you? Why? You were wrong about the iPod being a failure. You were wrong about tomato being a vegetable. I don't even want to talk about your favorite "Planet" Pluto! Haley:You were going to let me go with him?Claire: Isn't that what you wanted, honey?Haley: What's the matter with you?! You've been acting so weird ever since I left college! Claire: For the record, you didn't leave college. You were asked to leave.Haley: Oh, which you guys never let me forget, especially dad.Claire: Honey, your father...Haley: Oh, you don't have to tell me what he thinks, okay? I'm a huge disappointment to him. I see it on his face every day. He acts as if he doesn't even want me around.Phil: Give me the ticket for the car.Claire: Phil...Phil: I'm going after her! This little chicken game may work for your dad, but it doesn't work for me. That's my little girl. I need her to know that no guy on earth is good enough for her, let alone some slimy, middle-aged jean salesman!Phil: What's this?Claire: Just enjoy it.Jay: There's all kinds of milestones in life. The kind you expect to live through... The first kiss. Birthdays. Graduations. If you're lucky, a wedding or two. Or even a new addition to the family. You never dreamed you'd get to live through again. And that's the best kind of all. Why am I spoiling it for you? You'll see for yourself.#22Haley: Uh, what do you think you're doing out there?Alex: I'm flirting.Haley: That's what I was afraid of.Alex: Look, I'm not gonna pretend I'm stupid just so a boy will like me.Haley: Of course not. But you don't have to put the poor guy to shame. Flirting with boys is about increasing your value, not decreasing theirs.Alex: That's a complicated thought. What magazine taught you that?Haley: You're doing it again! The mean things. Can you even hear it or what?!Alex: I heard it.Haley: Good. So now that he knows that you're smart, let's work on being nice.Haley & Alex: We won!Boy A & B: Man, that sucks! Yeah, totally un-masculating.Alex: Well, at least you guys look cool when you play.Boy A & B: Let's play again. This never happened.Haley: Actually, we need to go hang out with our family for a while.Boy A & B: Really? Now?Haley: Yeah, but we'll be around. We'll see you guys.Alex: What happened? Did I mess up?Haley: No, you did great.Alex: So he didn't like me?Haley: No, he totally liked you.Alex: Then why'd we walk away?Haley: This was never about him. This was about getting you some confidence. Guys will pick up on that. Better guys. Guys who can lose to a girl without feeling e-masculated.Alex: Okay, try not to throw this in my face one day, but sometimes you're actually really smart. Like, smart smart. I hope you know that.Haley: And I'm totally throwing that in your face one day. Are you kidding?Jay: Good guy.Cam: Who -- Teddy? Yeah. Yeah, he's the best.Jay: Nuts he can't find anybody, huh? Gotta be something a little off there. He definitely did not bring out the best in Mitchell, I can tell you that right now.Cam: Oh, really? Well, you know, not that it matters... but in what way exactly?Jay: Honestly? When they were together, Mitchell could be a bit of pill. Now, I like Teddy, but when they broke up, I was actually kinda glad. Of course , Mitchell thought that I was uncomfortable because of the gay thing, and maybe I was, but... I really just wanted him to be happy. Like he is now. And when you two started up, everyone thought, "Well, there it is."#Okay, kids. Couples skate. Grab someone you love and get out there.#Cam: Jay, you can be so...Jay: I'm not skating with you, Cam.Cam: Yeah.Claire: What about me, dad? You wanna skate with me?Manny: What qualifies someone as a hero? Obviously, a hero has to be someone we respect. A person we look up to. A person who is generous of spirit. Who's willing to grow and learn. Maybe it's the person you love most in the world or the guy who makes the most out of life, no matter what anyone thinks. For me, though... The hero in my family is my family because of who we are together.C-. "This was not the assignment." I'll tell you who is not my hero, Mrs. Rita Mcnabb.#24Phil: My daughter Alex would like to pay tribute.Alex: My grandmother and I had a very special bond. This may not make sense to everyone, but I'm pretty sure she would've loved it. "This is a lighter. It belonged to my favorite actor, Paul Newman. One day, he came into the restaurant where I was waitressing and accidentally left it behind. For the first time in my life, I did something I wasn't supposed to and slipped it into my pocket. One of the customers saw and said, "don't worry. Your secret's safe with me." That customer turned out to be the love of my life, your grandfather. So, my Alex, who I love so dearly, who is probably too much like me for her own good, every once in a while, don't be afraid to break the rules. You never know what can happen."

中国的年轻人特别喜欢回忆小时候，不为别的，因为那时最幸福。

有家人在身边，年龄相仿的表哥表姐表妹堂哥堂姐堂妹叔叔婶婶舅舅姑姑，等等。

如今，很多人背井离乡。

背负着期望，这期望折合起来其实就是RMB的多少。

以前，一些小事都会让你很快乐。

现在，摩登家庭里的生活模式，好像你向往的。

第二十四集 本以为和奶奶有特殊情感纽带的Alex却在奶奶逝世以后收到了奶奶给予她的一个普通打火机，而留给其他孩子的都看起来颇有意义。

她略有些失望，后来却发现那封本来只写了“this is a lighter”的信可以展开，里面有一大段内容：“This is a lighter. It's belonged to my favourite actor, Paul Newman. One day he came into the restaurant where I was waitressing . And accidentally lefbehind first.For the first time in my life,i did something I wasn't supposed to doand slipped it into my pocket.One of the customer saw, and said, don't worry .Your secret's safe with me. That customer turned out to be the love of my life,your grandfather.So my Alex,who I love dearly who. who is probably too much like me fogood everything.every once in a while , don't be afraid to break the rules .you never know what can happen.”

-Jay，Do you have some time today? We need to go and pick out a stroller.-Just get whatever you want.I mean, it's what you're gonna do anyway.-What i want is the husband who likes to go shopping for a dollar with me.-If you have a husband who liked picking out strollers,you wouldn't be having a baby......-Manny:So who wants to come with me to the spoken word festival this evening?I only have two tickets，so somebody's gonna be disappointed.-Jay:I think it's gonna be you.
