Millie Bobby Brown had a cameo on a season 6 episode of ABCā€™s ā€˜Modern Familyā€™

During the ā€œCloset? Youā€™ll Love It!ā€ episode of season 6, the extended family relaxed in Jayā€™s backyard when they noticed a drone hovering over Gloria. Phil Dunphy took it upon himself to get rid of it. With the help of Luke and Manny, the three made a plan to trap the drone.Ā 

The problem was that the drone started to fly away. Luke and Phil hopped on bikes to follow it but, without a bike of his own, Manny decided to snatch the bike of a young girl passing by. Brown portrayed that neighbor named Lizzie.Ā 

ā€œHey Lizzie, OK, I need to borrow this, OK,ā€ Manny Delgado said, grabbing the bike. ā€œI promise to bring it back, alright?ā€

ā€œNo, thatā€™s what you said about my momā€™s humidifier,ā€ the young girl shouted back, standing without her bike in the middle of the sidewalk. Eventually, the boys of this comedy series shot the drone down. Technically, Gloria shot it down, saying that some boys just need a little help.
