We were at Jays house for dinner. "Mo, we should make a rocket!" Luke suggested as we sat on the couch bored out of our minds. "Sometimes I think Why is Luke so smart?" I say and we head to Jays garage. "Okay we need cardboard, duck tape an-ooh my god. We should have soda make it fly up in the air!" I squeal in excitement. "You're the best." Luke states. We grab the stuff but I was stopped by Haley. "May I help you?" I ask as she drags me by the bar. "I need advice." She admits. I gasp. "Haley Dunphy needs advice? Since when? And why mine?" I asked surprised. She rolls her eyes. "I'm serious Mo. What do I do if a guy I like is getting married but I'm kind of in love with him..?" She asked. I know who this guy was. "Oh your talking about Andy. Well, what I'd do is tell him how I feel even if he is getting married. I mean you never know. He could be in love with you too." I said. Wow. That actually wasn't half bad advice. "Wait, who told you it was Andy?" Haley asks as I start to walk away. "Alex, who do think she tells this stuff to? I mean its not like she has anyone else." I whisper the last part and we laugh. "True." Haley agrees. I head outside to see Phil in Joes pirate ship..castle, thing. I knock on the window and he opens it. "Oh hey Mo." He greets with a smile while sticking his head out the small window. "What are you doing in there?" I ask referring to the castle ship thing. "I'm mad at Claire so I'm hiding out in here until she stops trying to find me." He answers. "You wanna talk about it?" I ask him. "No, but thanks. Could you give me a soda?" He asks. I nod and head inside again. When I got inside to the kitchen I was greeted by Gloria and Jays yelling. "Go! I can't even look at your face!" Gloria yells at him. I was slowly walking away but I was seen. "Mo! Come and try my sauce." Gloria demands. I walk over to her and taste the sauce. "That's delicious!" I exclaim. "See Jay!" Gloria says but Jay storms off. "What happened?" I ask her. "He said my sauce wasn't good. I spent all day cooking this sauce." She explained. "He could have the decency to lie at least and say it was good." I said while grabbing three sodas out of the fridge. "At least someones on my side." She says smiling at me. I head outside and give Phil his soda. I head over to Luke by the pool. "Thanks." He says as I hand him a soda. "So, hows it going?" I ask before taking a sip of my soda. "Good so far." He said. I tape the liters to the cardboard that was wrapped around the sodas. "Do you think this will work?" I ask Luke. "Definitely." He says confidently. "Mo honey will you grab the egg salad in my car. I forgot it in there." Claire asks me. "Sure." I say and head to her car. While I was getting the salad I accidentally knocked down her purse making everything fall out. "Oh my god." I gasp as I see pregnancy test box.

I just look into the camera in disgust. "How old is she?"

I head back inside and put the salad boll in the kitchen. "Phil let me explain." Claire says chasing Phil around the yard. Phil goes back into the pirate thing and shuts the door on Claire. "No! I don't want your company in my ship. Bye bye now!" Phil shouts at Claire. She then storms off. I shrug it off and head back to Luke. "Shall we make this thing fly?" He asked me with an evil grin. "We shall." I say and we both pull off the soda caps. The thing goes flying everywhere. Until it lands on the pirate thing making a loud thud. Phil comes running out in fear screaming. "Dinn-" Jay was saying before Phil runs into him. They both fall in the pool which made my day. "Phil!" Claire gasps as Gloria runs outside. "Jay!" Gloria shouts. They both pop up for air. "You son of a-" Jay was cut off by me. "Hey!" I yell at him. He looks down.

We were all sitting at the dinner table. Everyone seemed to be getting along. I still couldn't stop thinking about the pregnancy test. "Aunt Claire. Are you pregnant?" I blurted out and everyone stops talking. She chokes on her food. "Why would you think that?" She asks me. "I found a pregnancy test box in your purse." I say quietly. "Oh..I thought I was pregnant but I'm not. I didn't want to be." She laughs the last part. "To Claire not having a baby." Phil raises his glass. "Phil." Clarie says as everyone looks at him with a really? Face. I shrug. "To us!" I say and raise my glass as so does everyone else. "What happened to the egg salad?" Alex asked. Oops.

"Today I learned to not look through other people's stuff." I say to the camera. "And?" Mitchell asked me knowing there was more. "And that love can fix a couples problem." I said. "Aand?" Cameron asked. I sigh. "And that I shouldn't be building rockets with Luke anymore. Because its too dangerous." I say the last part sarcastically. They smile at the camera while I just stare at it. "It's progress." Mitchell says.

"This egg salad is amazing!" I say to myself as I sit in Claires car eating the salad. I smile and shove another spoonful of it in my mouth.
