The elections of the social chair of the realtor group are on, and Phil (Ty Burrell) is nervous waiting for the results. While waiting, Gil Thorpe (Rob Riggle) comes to inform him that he won this year and asks Phil to pass the medallion to him. Phil is not happy at all with the result but not having a choice, he gives the medallion to Gil.
Claire (Julie Bowen) has an important meeting with a client that Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) has arranged for her. She is so nervous about it that when Mitchell and Cam (Eric Stonestreet) ask her to keep Lily (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) for them, she takes her to the park to get her mind off of the meeting. Later, Cam gets a phone call from Lily's school for a lice breakout and he decides with Mitch not to tell Claire before the meeting to not upset her more. It turns out that Claire got lice from Lily after all, something that makes her act weird during the meeting.
In the meantime, Phil goes to watch Luke's (Nolan Gould) wrestling match and tells him that no matter the result he will be proud of him and he should just have a good time. Phil changes his mind and tells Luke that he has to win when he finds out that Luke is wrestling Gil's son.
