Cam (Eric Stonestreet) goes on a blind date to discover the truth on the upcoming episode of ABC's top-rated comedy "Modern Family" season 8.

Titled "Sarge & Pea," the season's 7th episode will see a Pritchett family reunion. According to the official synopsis, Cam is enraged when an anonymous and rude parent from Lily's (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) school robs him of a precious moment during his beloved daughter's recent dance recital. While he and Haley (Sarah Hyland) drop by the coffee shop to visit Alex (Ariel Winter) the next day, Cam thinks he recognizes the culprit and does everything he can to uncover her identity, eventually giving her a piece of his mind.

Elsewhere, the Pritchetts come together once again to attend a family wedding. Jay (Ed O'Neil), Claire (Julie Bowen), and Mitch (Jesse Tyler-Ferguson) go to the event and unexpectedly run into Dede (guest star Shelley Long) at the reception. Worried that their parents might make a huge scene at the party, Mitch and Claire devise a plot to keep their mom and dad apart. Meanwhile, Phil (Ty Burrell) and Gloria (Sofia Vergara) go on a college tour with Manny (Rico Rodriguez) and Luke (Nolan Gould). The two parents show different ways of getting their kids ready to embark on a new adventure as they learn to let them go.

ABC has yet to come up with a teaser for the episode, but new promo images have already been released. One of the photos shows Cam getting emotional at the cafe before confronting the rude parent who stole a "Lily moment" from him. While Cam is busy talking to the parent, Haley is seen flirting with a guy who appears to be very interested in her. Another still shows Mitch hugging Dede during the family wedding and Claire looking shocked upon learning that her mother is also in the event.

The eighth season of "Modern Family" returns on Wednesday, Jan. 11, at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.
