Not me. But luckily, Phil was there to save the day, yelping, "I got Gloria, I got Gloria," as he rolled to her rescue. I always forget about Phil's crush on Gloria, but I love when it rears its awkward head.
Unfortunately we only had brief encounters with Fizbo, a shoe tease here, some leftover makeup there, but we did get to see Fizbo in his British incarnation as a court jester to go with the Princess theme of Lily's party ("me thinks a court jester is right as rain"). Here's to hoping we see Fizbo another day.
This episode was packed with so many smaller clever moments, here are some honorable mentions:
-Luke trying to be "adorable" by talking in baby talk.
-Alex's aptly-timed cello notes as DeDe enters the house.
-Manny sipping his espresso and pushing to buy Lily a cashmere throw.
-Gloria's problem with answering machine beep.
-Matt Dillon's earring!
-Gloria's bear voice while recording the story for Lily.
-Mitchell to Cam: "Cue the gasp!"
