Rachel: Okay. (He starts to leave, and Rachel grabs him and gives him a passionate kiss.) I'll miss you.
Monica: Is it me? Is it like I have some sort of beacon that only dogs and men with severe emotional problems can hear?

Joey: Kathy was being really nice and you just walked away. I thought we had a deal.
Kathy: Okay. Understanding a little more why you're single. Ohh! Y'know, I have a friend you would like, she's really pretty. And then we could double date!
