The cast of the hit TV series "Modern Family" did not want to miss out on the fun brought about by the holiday season so the next episode is going to be all about the festivities. With Christmas almost around, a party is going to be organized by no other than the Dunphy's. What could possibly go wrong, right? Read on and find out.

Next week's episode is titled "Snow Ball" and the synopsis, via Spoilers Guide, reads: "When Manny and Luke put on the school's lavish winter dance and end up over their heads due to a texting error, it is up to them to fix it before the end of the night. Meanwhile, Gloria, Claire, Mitchell and Cam all volunteer at the dance while Jay's thinly veiled guise to get out of it by pretending to want to spend time with Phil backfires."

"During the dance, Claire and Gloria attempt to set up Marjorie (Vanessa Bayer), an overbearing mom, with the school's principal. Finally, Mitchell is unnerved to be back in high school and is shocked to see a lot of himself in the school bully and feels he needs a little guidance." There goes your answer to the first question above. With Manny and Luke organizing a party, it is not surprising that they will commit mistakes. Will they be able to correct their errors and end the night successfully? We'll find out next week.

Meanwhile, the parents are also in for the party as volunteers. The others are okay about it but Jay being Jay, wants to bail out but can't think of a good reason, thus failing. On another news, upcoming episodes will be exciting for the viewers and basketball enthusiasts as according to an article by EW, NBA's Charles Barkley and DeAndre Jordan will grace the show as themselves. Phil attends a charity basketball game in which the pair will be present as well. Tune in for more updates as "Modern Family" Season 8 Episode 9 "Snow Ball" airs December 14 on ABC.
