Reuben Rand is a friend of both Luke Dunphy and Manny Delgado. He went to middle and high school with them and has been Luke's friend for a very long time, even having taken bubble baths with him when they were little. ("Clean Out Your Junk Drawer")

Reuben is first seen in "The Musical Man" where he is played by a different actor that is not credited.

In "After the Fire" Reuben's house has burned down and Claire mobilizes the community to donate clothes and furniture for the Rands who lost everything in the fire. Gloria buys Reuben a helicopter drone that Luke and Manny almost lose before it even gets to him. However Reuben does not appear in this episode, he is only mentioned.

Reuben had a crush on Alex at least since Season 5, even making Luke help him kiss her in "Larry's Wife", and in Season 7 they date for a while after Alex gets her heart broken and wants "something comfortable" with "a nerdy little dork that worships her". ("Clean Out Your Junk Drawer") Alex is ashamed to be seen with him and tries to end their relationship multiple times.
