In the episode “Closet? You’ll Love it!” Phil and Luke visit Jay’s house to spend time with the family. Everyone except Jay hangs out together by the pool. While Gloria is sunbathing in a swimsuit, a drone flies into her house and starts recording her with the camera. Phil, Manny, and Luke try to break the drone and in the process, Phil falls into the pool and ends up exposing himself. They take this incident personally when a video of Phil falling into the pool without his shorts is uploaded on YouTube and goes viral.


They decide to follow the drone on bicycles, leaving Manny behind. To catch up with them, Manny borrows a bicycle from a girl in his neighborhood named Lizzie (played by Millie Bobby Brown). He promises her that he will bring it back to which Lizzie replies, “No, that’s what you said about my Mom’s humidifier.” This was her only scene in the show. In the end, after several attempts, they were able to take down the drone. Little did they know, it was Gloria who shot it down with a gun from the balcony.
