Out of the Blue

Have any of you been watching Modern Family? MrsBlue and I found this sitcom several episodes into its run and just recently caught up with most of the season after DVRing it. The show is a take on the traditional one-camera sitcom using the ever-more-common documentary approach, with an unexplained office-style camera following the goings-on. The cast includes Ed O'Neill and the beautiful Julie Bowen as well as the way beyond beautiful SofĂ­a Vergara, who would make the show worth watching even if it wasn't so funny, which it is. Anyway, thinking MrsBlue and I have been the kiss of death for shows we like lately, I recently checked the ratings and see the show is a bona fide hit, and has been renewed for next season.

I'm still not sure who started the verbal exchange, but it looks like the black gentleman (and I use that phrase loosely, based on his smack talk comments, post fight) started the physical fight and the white gentleman (again, loosely) finished it.

The full clip demonstrates this is what happened. It picks up after things had been underway for a while, but it seems as if EBG made some sort of comment about the kid shining his shoes. It gives the impression that he has done this type of thing before - bait someone so they start a fight that he can then finish and claim self-defense.
