In an interview with EW, Ty Burrell who has won two Emmys said— “It was like a beautiful torture. It was like being at a wedding and a funeral at the same time.”
The finale would be a continuation of everything that has happened so far. From Mitch and Cam deciding to adopt a baby boy, Phil and Claire finding some time for themselves away from their three kids and two grandkids who all live under the same roof, to Jay and Gloria beginning to get used to a change in their family dynamic.
The episode would also be incomplete without a final sibling rivalry. The audience will be in for a treat as they will get to witness their favourite family being their best selves as they could have ever been.
