Continuity mistake: In the scene after Luke tips the contents from the box onto the table, when he puts the box upright after tipping it, there is a white hose hanging over the edge. But in the shot when the box is visible again, the hose is on the table. After that when you see the box again, the white hose is once again hanging on the box, but in a different position than it was originally. (00:08:40)

1 continuity mistake in ClosetCon '13
Starring: Ed O'Neill, Julie Bowen, Sofia Vergara, Ty Burrell
Genres: Comedy
Continuity mistake: During the episode when Claire and Phil do their warm-up before racing each other, their children Alex and Luke arrive from school. They get down from the car, and the car takes off and goes away. But in the 2nd shot we can see that same car parked in front of them. (00:17:00)
Phil Dunphy: Gotta fix that step.
Question: In Claire and Phil's house, what is the room behind the staircase that we never see? It wasn't there in the pilot episode but thereafter, it's got a window and supposedly a good amount of space, as it's in the front of the house, in front of the kitchen. Anybody have any idea?
