In the Modern Family episode ‘Do You Believe in Magic?’ Phil Dunphy (Ty Burrell) taps his romantic alter ego, Clive Bixby, for Valentine’s Day. Meanwhile, Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) try to encourage their daughter Lily, niece Haley, and gal pal Sal to stand up to the men in their lives. When they do, it backfires on Cam and Mitch. [Last time we saw Sal was at Cam and Mitch’s baby shower in 2015.]
Sal is portrayed by Elizabeth Banks. She’s known for her roles on the TV shows Wet Hot American Summer (Lindsay), 30 Rock (Avery Jessup), Scrubs (Dr. Kim Briggs), and in the films Magic Mike (Paris), Pitch Perfect (Gail), The Hunger Games (Effie Trinket), Spider-Man (Miss Brant), and The 40-Year-Old Virgin (Beth), among many others. Modern Family airs Wednesdays at 9pm on ABC.
