Monica: Oh. Well, I didn't realize that you needed it back right away. I mean, you told me to go and be a caterer. So I went. I beed. I mean, I... I used it to buy all this stuff. But lookI've got another job tomorrow, so I'll pay you back with the money I make from that.

(He turns around frantically from side to side.)
Chandler: Kinda... you know, sneaking around, having to hide from you guys...
(Lifts her head from Joey's shoulder)
(Joey comes out from his room, yawning)
Rachel: Well this has story behind it! I mean they had to ship it all the way from the White Plains store.
Joey: Oh! I got it! Ok, everyone pick a number from one to ten. Alright? Whoever gets the highest number gets to go first.
Chandler: Oh, so thats why the priest threw holy water on me. (theres no reaction from Joey) Okay, listen, you have to cheer up! Okay? You should come out with Ross and me, I mean anything is better than sitting around here crying all day about Kate.
Chandler: You called everyone and said you were having trouble finding a Santa costume, so I borrowed one from a guy at work!
Amy: (yelling from outside) Rachel!! Open up!! It's your sister!! (she knocks on the door again) I have to talk to you!!
Joey: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no... I think it's better if you tell him, you know. It's easier for a woman. That way, you know, if he gets mad, all you have to do is go... I didn't mean it. I'm so so--ooory. (he pushes his breasts together from the side)
Joey: No! No... and, for the record, I've also never given her a frosting from a can!
Monica: I proposed to Chandler! (Phoebe stops herself from laughing) Alright, moving on...
Rachel: (trying to divert his attention from the window by jumping up and down) HI!! Hi!
(Amy approaches from behind)

Amy: (looks confused) N-no... uhm... did I buy a falafel from you yesterday?
Joey: (enters from his bedroom) What?
Joey: I got it from Monica. She sold it to me for a very reasonable price.
(Joey's eyes are twice their size now, and looks nervously from Rachel to Gladys and back.)
Ross: But all kidding aside, in much the same way that Homo ergaster [1] is now thought to be a separate species from Homo erectus...
Chandler: Yeah, I miss that too. I tell you what; from now on well make time to hang out with each other.
Phoebe: That’s right, I've prepared a song for Emma. From my heart to hers. For there’s no greater gift, than the gift of music. (she starts singing) Emma! Your name poses a dilemma. 'Cause not much else rhymes with Emma! Maybe the actor Richard Crenna, he played the commanding officer in Rambo. Happy birthday Emma!
Phoebe: Yeah, I really do. You know, I had nothing growing up. (thinks for a few seconds) Just like the kids I took the money from.
Charlie: I'm pretty sure, professor Spafford from Cornell?
Chandler: Why come all the way from Kansas to do that?
Monica: Yeah, but we haven't heard a thing from the adoption agency and it has been weeks!
Joey: (whispering) Who do you think its from?
Joey: (smiling from ear to ear) Ah-haah! I win!!
Rachel: I don't know... maybe it's because she has got such callousy fingers from playing crummy guitar...
Ross: Let me see this... (he takes the trophy from Rachel's hands) Grand Supreme Little Darling, New York Division.
(Monica enters from the spare bedroom.)
(Rachel enters from the main door)
Phoebe: oh, well, Ross probably has it, you can get it from him later.
Chandler: All right, check it out. Check this out. It says here that theres a place you can go to rent videos of all the museums! (Reading from the book.) "Its almost as good as being there."
Mrs. Green: Now dont worry! Everythings gonna be okay. (Hugs Rachel while she is standing and Rachel is sitting, seeing this Monica decides to join in on the hugging by hugging Mrs. Green from behind her back.)
[Scene: Chandler and Joey's, Chandler is returning from his disastrous weekend. He throws his bag down and sits down on one of the leather chairs, but he sits on something and picks it up and throws it away.]
Chandler: Well, our names really are Monica and Chandler. We're from New York.
Rachel: Oh, you're gonna love this cake. I got it from a bakery in New Jersey, Corino’s.
Rachel: Yeah, down from seven hundred, you are saving like two hundred bucks!

(from 6.06 - "The One On The Last Night")
(from 1.09 - "The One Where Underdog Gets Away")
Joey: No. Here (he tears off the pocket from Ross' shirt, and tears off everything below that as well.)
Rachel: Okay, what? What is too sensitive? (There's music coming from the living room. Ross opens the door to the living room and he and Rachel see Sandy play a song for Emma on his recorder. Rachel is moved by this, but Ross only sees his point proven again, and walks back into the kitchen, angrily. The door he was holding, swings back and hits Rachel.)
(from 4.12 - "The one With the Embryos")
Roy: I may have borrowed this from my nephew, but let me assure you, what's underneath (points at his groin)... is all man.
Gene: It's made from eggs!
Jack: That’s true! This message could becoming to you from beyond the grave, Emma!
Phoebe: I love you. But I never needed a proposal from you. I just needed to know that we were headed somewhere, you know, that we had a future.
Chandler and Ross: Hey! Hey Adrienne. (They move away from her)
(Monica enters from their bedroom with a calendar.)
[Scene: The Funeral Home, continued from earlier. Phoebe is returning after looking for her father.]
Joey: Oh man, this is great, uh? The three of us together again! You know what would be fun? If we gave this present to Emma from all of us!
Monica: You know thats nice, y'know we could put it back there after the surgeons remove it from your colon!
(She lets go of the steering wheel to get her cell-phone from her purse. Ross screams and reaches over in order to hold onto the wheel. Cut to the plane. Rachel is sitting in her seat when her cell-phone rings.)
(Joey comes out from his room)
(Chandler lets her into the apartment and reveals that Monica is getting a massage from another woman.)
Ross: Yeah, and to save you from any embarrassment umm, I think maybe I should talk first.
Joey: Oh hey, don't worry. I'm still ordained from your wedding.
Ross: (takes Chappy from Mike) Well, I guess I'm in the wedding then. Ha haaa... (smells Chappy) He stinks!
CHANDLER: Hey. Well, you will all be pleased to know that I have a date tomorrow night. This woman, Alison, from work. She's great. She's pretty, she's smart. And uh, I've been holding off on asking her out in the past, because she has an unusually large head. But, I'm not gonna let that stuff hang me up anymore. Look at me. I'm growing.
Rachel: Oh it... good! Yeah, but I'm not gonna hear from that for a couple of days.
Joey: All right, watch me! (he takes a full container of milk from the fridge) Okay, you time me. Ready?
Monica: Okay, so from now on we have to call you Princess Consuela?
Joey: I hate my friends. (They shake on it as if they just made a pact) Alright, look. There's gotta be a way that we can stop this from happening.
Rachel: (returning from calling Warren) Ugh!!! Well, the apartment is already subletted! I mean, this is just hopeless. Im never gonna find anything.
[Scene: The fire escape, Joey is now hanging off of the bottom rung of the ladder that wont move and Ross is watching from above.]
[Flashback scene from last week, Monica and Chandler's kitchen, Rachel, Ross, Monica and Chandler are there.]
Chandler: Yes, yes she is. Didnt I memo you on this? See, after I let her go, err, I got a call from her psychiatrist, Dr. Flanen-nen, Dr. Flanen, Dr. Flan.
Ross: That guy Mark. From Bloomingdale's... She thinks he's just being nice to her. But I know he really wants to sleep with her.
(Mark, approaches from behind and recognizes her)
Joey: No, God, no! No! No no, I'm an actor. You'd probably recognize me from a little show called "The Days of Our Lives".
Phoebe Sr.: No, Im not done. I-I-I just want you to know that I, the reason I didnt look you up was, well I was afraid that youd react, just well like, the way, the way youre reacting right now, and cant we just, y'know, start from here?
David: Allright... But... if I ever do come back from Minsk... (points at Mike) well, you just better watch out.
Monica: (Entering from her bedroom, talking on the phone) Yeah, once again, I am sorry. Thank you. Bye. (To the gang) I just had to turn down a job catering a funeral for sixty people.
Joey: I promise. And that means, never having to give a reason. (Phoebe stops herself from laughing and leaves)
Flight Attendant: It's from Rachel. She said that she loved the present, and she will see you when you get back.
Message: (Phoebe's voice) "Hello. Th-this is the pigeon from the balcony calling to apologise" (they all turns to look at Phoebe) "I sh.. I shouldn't have knocked the tickets out of the pretty lady's hand. It-it was all my fault. Not hers. Bye. Coo."
Erica: No, he's in prison. (More shocked looks from Monica and Chandler)
