Ross: Look, I gotta go pick up Ben. Everything so far sounds great Joey, just remember to keep it on the mellow side, okay? Just a couple of guys hanging out playing poker, no-no strippers or anything okay?
Ross and Charlie: Hey!
Ross: Good night.
Ross and Rachel: Ok, good night!
Ross: Mhm, (he balance things) packing - sexy cheerleader comedy.

[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, erm, Chandler and Joey's, the gang minus Monica and Rachel are eating breakfast. Ross and Chandler are sitting at the foosball table and eating.]

Ross: I don't know, probably just invest it.
Joey: I'm fine, I'm fine, it's just, it's just weird what's happening with her and Ross. You know, yesterday he asked me to fix him up with somebody.
Chandler: We used to be married, but then we missed a weekend away together and things kind of unraveled. Because of you! Happy Birthday. (Ross looks disappointed and switches the camcorder off)
(Rachel goes into her room and Monica enters the living room as Ross is leaving.)
Ross: Posting that I died? That really isn't funny.
[Cut to Rosss apartment, hes watching TV and eating some popcorn as the phone rings.]
(Ross grabs his things and runs to the door only to be blocked by his exiting students.)
Ross: Get Out!
Ross: Oh my God, wh-what happened?
Ross: I knew that was him!
Charlie: Ross, can I talk to you for a minute?
Ross: See, Rach, uh, see, I don't think that swearing off guys altogether is the answer. I really don't. I think that what you need is to develop a more sophisticated screening process.
Ross: Yes, please! (they move and sit down on a sofa) So, what's going on?
Ross: (holding her hand) Hey, you ok?
Susan: Honey, relax. Ross is great with him. (Ross looks at her.) Don't look so surprised. I'm a lovely person.
Mike: But Rachel I thought she just had a baby with Ross
Joey (gives a thumbs up sign): Okay, okay. Wait till you hear who I got for Ross.
Ross: Hi.
[Scene: Mon and Chan's, Ross enters]
Ross: I don't think they saw us.
Ross: I'm sorry... we... we can't.
Phoebe: Is that Ross?
Joey: Oh and (Ross begins to open the door and Joey says some gibberish word to indicate to Ross that hes not done yet. Ross closes the door again.) Okay, and uh if anyone needs help pretending to like it, I learned something in acting class, try uh, rubbing your stomach (Rubs his stomach) or uh, or saying mmm and uh, oh oh! And smiling (Smiles while pretending to stir a bowl), okay?
Ross: ... finally...
Joey: Okay, all right, whew! What do you say we all clear out of here and let these two lovebirds get back down to business? (Ross turns and glares at him.) Hey-hey-hey, I-I-I'm just talking here, he-he's the one doing your sister.
Ross: Its a little early to be drinkin.
Ross: Wow! Great! (Finds a pack of cigarettes.) Wait, dad who-whos cigarettes are these?
Ross: I think, subconsciously
Rachel: Come on Ross! You said you wanted to talk about it, lets talk about it!! How was she?
Rachel: Ross honey, this is very nice, but, but I-I got a crisis.
Joey: Well, I only said that because of Ross, you know. Then I saw him kissing Charlie...
Ross: No, NO! (they're moving to the side of the bed, where they sit down) Look, I need to talk to Joey. I mean, you guys just broke up. Before anything more happens between us, I need to know he's okay with it.
Ross: Hey, what are you guys doing?
Ross: (knocks on door) Rach, you there? (Joey and Rachel both get up from the bed)
Joey: Oh my God, it's Ross. What are we gonna do?
Ross: (knocks) Rach?
Monica: Just figured, 'cause you and Ross are...
Ross: Well, if you see him could you please tell him I'm looking for him?
Ross: Hey.
Ross: You know where Joey is?
Ross: Is everything okay?
Ross: Can I talk to you for a minute?
