With the help of Phil, who body pops in a beaver costume, and Claire, who manages to convince people to leave another more popular party to go to Luke’s, the party proves to be a success.

Jay (Ed O'Neill) and Gloria (Sofía Vergara) dress themselves as Joseph and Mary, as Joe is supposed to be Jesus. Manny (Rico Rodriguez) has chosen a Dalton Trumbo costume, which no one recognizes to a party at Earl Chambers' house. Jay initially wants Manny to play a prank on Earl, but after an angry confrontation he decides to bury the hatchet and end the feud. Finally, Manny is dropped at Luke’s place and meets girl wearing a Dorothy Parker costume who finally identifies his Trumbo outfit.
