Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is Gloria's native country?

Answer: Colombia

Gloria's home town is Colombia's murder capital. She is fiercely proud of her heritage.
2. Why does Gloria feel jealous of Maxine, a waitress in a local diner?

Answer: Because she has known Jay very well for years

Gloria is utterly confident of her own attractiveness and has no false modesty. In "Tableau Vivant", the 23rd episode of season 3, she experiences a strange emotion which Cam explains to her is jealousy. Apparently Gloria has never experienced this emotion before and exclaims 'Aye! My poor sisters' - presumably a reference to the fact that her sisters have always been jealous of her looks.
3. What is the name of Gloria's ventriloquist's dummy?

Answer: Uncle Grumpy

Luke and Manny find Uncle Grumpy in a suitcase when the family is having a yard sale. Gloria used him in the talent section she was in at the age of eighteen. Her ventroquilism skills are non existent and in the contest she froze completely. However she won anyway - indicating her body, she says 'Of course I won, imagine this at eighteen'. She has a refreshing lack of modesty.
4. What happens to dampen the atmosphere at Jay and Gloria's wedding reception?

Answer: Jay's ex-wife causes a scene

Although DeDe, Jay's ex, was the one who walked away from their marriage, she finds it hard to accept that Jay found someone else so quickly, especially someone as lovely as Gloria. DeDe stands up to make a speech, referencing Gloria's boobs and Jay's wallet. She is carried from the room, wrecking the wedding cake as she goes.
5. Poor Gloria doesn't have much luck at her weddings. What happened to disturb her wedding to her first husband?

Answer: Colombian drug dealers broke in and assassinated the judge

Gloria references this when commenting on DeDe's scene at her first wedding - 'At my first wedding, Colombian drug dealers broke in and assassinated the judge. This was way worse.'
6. Which of the following jobs did Gloria do before marrying Jay?

Answer: Taxi driver

As a single mother, Gloria used to drive a taxi with a young Manny asleep in the footwell of the passenger seat. Rather worryingly, she is not a great driver, being very impatient of other traffic.
7. Gloria is older than her stepdaughter, Claire.

Answer: False

Claire is fourteen months older than Gloria, a fact that doesn't do anything to help their slightly tricky relationship.
8. What was Gloria's attitude to Manny when he was a baby?

Answer: She sometimes dressed him as a girl

Although Gloria loves Manny, she would have liked to have had a girl to dress up. She used to dress Manny as a girl, but stopped because she didn't want him to grow up 'messed up'. When he asks who the little girl is in old photographs, Gloria tells him that it is his twin sister who died!

Gloria's figure pinged right back into shape after she gave birth to her second son, so it's not likely that her pregnancy with Manny marred her figure.
9. Gloria is terrified of rats but is very squeamish if they are harmed.

Answer: False

In the season 2 episode 'Unplugged' it is revealed that Gloria once killed a rat with a shovel, and left its head laying outside as a warning to all the other rats. Jay also states that Gloria's grandfather and uncles were butchers, so she 'has a certain comfort level when it comes to killing'.
10. Which actress plays Gloria?

Answer: Sofia Vergara

Like Gloria, Sofia was born in Colombia. She is a natural blonde but often dyes her hair dark to comply with the Latina stereotype for film and TV roles. During the course of the 'Modern Family' series, her hair has become a lot lighter. Sofia studied dentistry in Colombia but abandoned her studies to pursue a career as a model and actress.

Julie Bowen plays Claire, Sarah Hyland plays Hayley and Ariel Winter plays Alex.
