In the episode, Gloria discovers an allergic rash on Joe and with the thought that he might be allergic to Stella, she forces Jay to take the dog away for a week. Jay takes Stella at Cameron and Mitchell's house where Cameron gets attached to her while Mitchell decides to work few days at Jay's company and this time he plans to leave his snob self behind so he will be likable from the employees. In the meantime, Luke wants to get some distance from Phil now that he is a teenager and Phil starts to hang-out with Andy, something that Luke does not like while Alex tries to prepare for an interview with Princeton University.

"Rash Decisions" received mixed reviews from the critics.

Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) begins to work at Jay's (Ed O'Neill) company along with Claire for few days and he decides to behave as best as possible leaving his snob personality so he will be likable. This seems to work and everybody likes him in comparison to Claire and her relationship with her co-workers. Claire believes they like her but through Mitchell she realizes that they only see her as their boss and not as a friend. When Jay gives Claire a list of things she has to say to the employees that will insult them and she does not feel well to do, Mitchell takes the list and does it himself not caring if everyone starts disliking him again.

In the meantime, Jay returns home with Stella and Gloria (Sofia Vergara) informs him that Joe is allergic to something (probably Stella) and they have to keep them separated for a week to see if he is indeed allergic to the dog. Though he loves Stella, Jay has no choice but to take her away from home till they know the truth about Joe's allergic rash. Stella stays at Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell's home even though Cameron is afraid that Lily (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) might get attached to her. Later, Jay discovers that Joe's rash was caused by Gloria's new face cream and he goes to get Stella back making Cameron cry since he is the one who got attached to Stella and not Lily, who is happy that Stella is finally going.
