Chandler: (Looking out at the balcony) So tell me something, is leaving the Christmas lights up part of your plan to keep us merry all year long?
Chandler: Well, you still havent taken down the Christmas lights.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's Balcony, Rachel is taking down the Christmas lights. Monica sees her, so she leans out of the small side window.]
(In the apartment below, Mr.Heckles is trying to relax and read his newspaper, but Rachel is helplessly dangling upside-down with her ankle wrapped up in the Christmas lights.)
Phoebe: Watch, watch. (She turns a strand of Christmas lights strung around the house.)
Phoebe: Chandler, your being here is the best Christmas present I could have ever imagined.
Ross: And hey, here's to a lousy Christmas.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, everyone except Joey is decorating for Christmas.]
Nurse: My god. You still have your Christmas lights up?
Chandler: Oh, we had a lot of liquor left over from the Christmas party.
PHOEBE: Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. Ugly Naked Guy is decorating his tree. Oh my God, you should see the size of his Christmas Balls.
Monica: Having a perfectly decorated tree is not what Christmas is about. Its about being with the people that you love.
CHANDLER: Who said anything about Christmas?
MNCA: Especially the after taste, you know, I'll tell ya, that'll last ya till Christmas.
ROSS: Yeah, what're you guys doin' here, aren't you supposed to be Christmas shopping?
Monica: Hi. Uh, my friend here was taking down our Christmas lights, and and she fell off the balcony and may have broken her foot or or ankle or something.
Chandler: I dont wanna know what Monica got me. Yknow? I mean, look, Im sure she worked really hard at getting you a present, and wanting to surprise me, and you guys are gonna ruin that, and I, look we have to put these back, this is not what Christmas is about.
PHOEBE: Happy Christmas Eve Eve. [sees Ross's picture frame] Oh my God, where did you get this?
RACHEL: Well, that doesn't sound like a very merry Christmas.
CHANDLER: Hey, guys, it's after midnight, merry Christmas everyone. [Ross and Phoebe hug, Monica and Rachel hug, Chandler is left standing]
CHAN: Y'know, maybe this isn't such a big deal. Y'know, I mean, the way that I see it is you get a great job and you get to have sex. Y'know, I mean, throw in a tree and a fat guy and you've got Christmas.
ROSS: Alright, alright, here's the chance. Monica give him cash, Rachel give him your earrings. Something, now, anything. MONICA: No, I will not cave. RACHEL: Yeah, I'm with Mon. ROSS: Alright, alright, you know how you say I never seize the day? Well, alright, even though he's your super, I'm seizing. [approaches Mr. Treeger] Mr. Treeger, here is 50 bucks, merry Christmas. [Gives him the cash.]
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's apartment. Rachel, Chandler, and Joey are decorating the Christmas tree.]
MONICA: You guys haven't gotten your presents yet? Tomorrow's Christmas Eve, what're ya gonna do?
RACHEL: This is it, isn't it? I mean, this is what my life is gonna be like. My mom there, my dad there. Thanksgiving, Christmas. She gets the house, he's in some condo my sister's gonna decorate with wicker. Oh, Chandler how did you get through this?
Phoebe: Duh!! Christmas!
Joey: Yeah, the ah, trees that dont fulfil their Christmas destiny are thrown in the chipper.
Chandler: Its like Night of the Living Dead Christmas Trees.
Monica: (walking around with her headset still on) OK LET'S GET THESE CHAIRS OUT HERE! Gunther, hit the Christmas lights. (He does so and the lights above the chairs light up. Monica looks satisfied) Okay, who left the ice sculpture (picks up a piece of ice from the ground) ON THE STEAM GRATE? (nobody answers)
Joey: And I gotta go sell some Christmas trees.
Monica: Christmas cookie?
Monica: Oh honey, is that cause your Mom died around Christmas?
Phoebe: This is the worst Christmas ever.
Monica: (entering) Hey, guys. Im here to pick out my Christmas tree.
Rachel: I ah, will buy and wrap all of your Christmas gifts.
Joey and Monica: (jumping up from behind the couch) Merry Christmas!!
ROSS: No no, no, that, that's your Christmas tip, alright. Oh, hey, do you think there's a chance you could fix that radiator now?
Ross: Well, she wore it all Christmas day, and then uh
Rachel: Its not Christmas!
Mike: Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa! Is this, hot Rachel, that you took to the Christmas party, Rachel?
Ross: Should we all expect Christmas gifts that can be stolen from your office?
Chandler: Hey, look at this! (Holding a newspaper) Theyre lighting the big Christmas tree tonight.
Joey: Well, I know what Im giving you for Christmas.
(At that Ross plugs in some Christmas lights to light the place up.)
[Scene: Joeys work, selling Christmas trees.]
Phoebe: Oh, no, I have the cutest Christmas story!
Ross: (answering it) 1987, the day after Christmas, at Sean McMahons party. I played you one of my songs, yknow Interplanetary Courtship Ritual.
Monica: (interrupting her) Okay, now Thanksgiving's over, let's get ready for Christmas. Who wants to go get a Christmas tree?!
Phoebe: (singing) Happy Chanukah, Monica! May your Christmas be snowy, Joey! Happy New Year, Chandler and Ross. Spin the draddle, Rachel!
Chandler: All right everybody, I know that it's Christmas Eve and you'd rather be with your families, but there's *no* call (he takes it off) for writing "Screw you, Mr. Bing!" on the back of my chair! (he looks at it) -- By the way, you can all call me Chandler.
Chandler: Y'know what, I know what will cheer you guys up! (he starts spreading envelopes among them) I had a little talk with the boys in New York, told 'em about all the hard work you've been doing and that a little Christmas bonus may be in order.
Phoebe: Speaking of Christmas, umm since Monica and I are starting a new business and have like no money, umm, this year maybe we could do secret Santa, and then we each only buy one gift. And-and theres the added mystery of who gets who.
Sophie: Yknow why? Shes got the Christmas bonus list in there. I saw her working on it this morning.
Rachel: Chandler, arent you worried about what to get Monica for Christmas?
Chandler: If you wanna give Joey a Christmas present that disrupts the entire building, why not get him something a little bit more subtle, like a wrecking ball, or a vile of small pox to release in the hallway?
Chandler: See now it feels like Christmas!
Rachel: We are looking for our Christmas presents from Monica.
Monica: Oh, wait, is he the guy I met at Christmas?
Chandler: Well seeing that drunk Santa wet himself, really perked up my Christmas.
Joey: Hey-heeyyy - Look at that, it's a Christmas miracle!
Joey: Yep! Looks like its gonna be a leeeeean Christmas at the Dragon house this year.
Maitre d': I'm sorry. Christmas is a very busy time, sir.
Joey: Hey! Great, youre home! Guess what Phoebe got me for Christmas! (Starts drumming.)
Ross: You're welcome, Ben. Merry Christmas, ooh, and Happy Hanukkah!
Ben: Christmas.
Ben: Christmas eve.
Ross: (to Monica) Santa was unavailable so close to Christmas.
Salesman: Two days before Christmas? Sorry, man.
Joey: (entering wearing a Superman costume) Merry Christmas!
Chandler: (entering in a Santa costume) Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!
Chandler: (entering in a Santa costume) Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!
Phoebe: No, no, no. It's not! It's not my mom. It belonged to mom. Yeah, no, she used to put it out every Christmas to remind us, that even though it's Christmas, people still die. And, you can put candy in it. (She grabs the skull, pulls out a stick of licorice, and takes a bite.)
Monica: It's just... It's hard enough not seeing you during the week, but for Christmas... alright, if this is what you have to do, I understand.
Monica: I can't believe you're not gonna be here for Christmas.
[Flashback to 209 - TOW Phoebe's Dad] [Scene: Monica and Rachel's apartment. Joey and Chandler are giving out their Christmas presents out of a cardboard box from a case of motor oil.]
Others: (simultaneously) Merry Christmas! (except for Phoebe...)
Ross: Yeah-yeah, except Apollo 8 didnt actually land on the moon. But you-you-you could write that umm, your love lets me orbit the moon twice and return safely. (Apollo 8 was the first one that orbited the moon and the one that read the Christmas Story from the orbit of the moon on Christmas Eve, 1968. They also took the famous Earthrise picture of the Earth rising over the moon.)
Wendy: *Now* it feels like Christmas.
Rachel: We are looking for our Christmas presents from Monica.
(All are leaving, wishing each other a Merry Christmas, peace on earth, etc. Only Wendy stays.)
Chandler: Merry Christmas, you guys!
Chandler: Ahh, Merry Christmas; I miss you guys!
Monica: Merry Christmas.
Monica: Hi Honey! We're all here; we just want to wish you a Merry Christmas.
Chandler: Merry Christmas.
Others: (simultaneously) Yeah, Merry... Christmas. (again, Phoebe...)
Chandler: Did I not tell *anyone* about New Year's Eve? -- Alright, look, go! Go home, okay? Merry Christmas! Go.
Wendy: Besides, I can't leave until their Christmas party downstairs clears out; there are some *pissed off* insurance people looking for that ham.
Joey: All right. But, youre gonna have to tell them. (He opens the cabinet to reveal the chick and the duck living inside with Christmas lights and a disco ball as decorations.)
Rachel: Chandler, aren't you worried about what to get Monica for Christmas?
Joey: Well, at the Christmas party him and Santa did some definitely gay stuff!
Ross: I'm the holiday armadillo! I'm a friend of Santa's and he sent me here to wish you (Points to Ben) a Merry Christmas!
Joey: Look now, Phoebe remember, hey, their just fulfilling their Christmas....
Monica: Okay? (She starts to walk which causes her to start crying) Ooo wee! Christmas party in my boots! (Runs into the bedroom and mixes saying ow with laughing.)
Ross: And hey, here's to a lousy Christmas.
Present Chandler's voice: Remember that big party? Freshman year? A week before Christmas vacation? I do. You had some visitors.
Ross: I don't know. I could talk to her boss. Yeah! I met him at that Christmas party. We really hit it off.
Phoebe: Rachel, didn't have anything that I liked, so, but she had this Christmas ribbon, and I thought, 'All right, fine I'll be political.'
JOEY: I can't believe it's Christmas already. Ya know, I mean, one day your eatin' turkey, the next thing ya know, your lords are a-leapin' and you geese are a-layin'.
Wendy: Okay, let me ask you something: if what you and your wife have is so great, then why are you spending Christmas with me?
Chandler: I'm sorry. Hey, at least you guys get to go home and be with your families tonight. I have to go back to an empty hotel room and lay down on a very questionable bedspread. And then tomorrow morning, you get to have Christmas morning in your own houses, wich, by the way, none of you have invited me to.
Joey: Well, Im pretty tired from lugging the trees around all day. Hey, Phoebe listen, you got this all wrong. Those trees were born to be Christmas trees, their fulfilling their life purpose, by, by making people happy.
Phoebe: Happy Holidays. Feliz Navidad. Allo, and Merry Christmas. (A man put some change in her bucket.) Ohh thank you sir. Here's some joy. (She waves her hand up and down as if she is spreading joy.)
Chandler: Because, if Santa and the Holiday Armadillo? (Ross nods) ...are ever in the same room for too long the universe will implode. Merry Christmas!
