Monica: Lots of responses.
Rachel: (to Monica): Really? (out loud): Sure, we have scones left! (to Monica): OK, read them to me.
Monica: (reading): OK... Dear Ms. Green... yeah... yeah... yeah... No. (crumpes up letter)
Monica: Oh, please, that is such a lame excuse!
Monica: I mean, that's a typical guy response.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, the guys are teaching the girls how to play poker.]

(Microwave timer goes off. Monica gets up.)
(Monica comes back to the table with plates of food.)
Monica: Alright, here we go. We've got salmon roulettes and assorted crudites.
Joey: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Monica, what're you doin'? This is a poker game. You can't serve food with more than one syllable. It's gotta be like chips, or dip, or pretz...(look of realization)
Monica: Alright, you know, we got it, we got it. Let's play for real. High stakes... big bucks...
Monica: (throws down her cards) Dammit, dammit, dammit!
Monica: Hell no, we'll pay!

Monica: Please! I am not as bad as Ross.
Monica: That was not an incident! I-I was gesturing, a-and the plate slipped out of my hand.
Monica: You're kidding! Where? Where?
Monica: Oh, Rachel!
Monica: Well, what's the job?
Monica: OK, look. That is Aunt Iris. This woman has been playing poker since she was five. You gotta listen to every word she says. (opens door) Hi!
Monica: I don't think so.
Monica: What?
Monica: Really?
Monica: Uh, Aunt Iris? This is Phoebe, and that's Rachel...
Monica: OK, great. You'll tell us and we'll laugh. Let's play poker.
Monica: Ha, ha, very funny, very funny. But I think we'd like to give poker another try. Shall we, ladies?
Ross: So, Phoebs owes $7.50, Monica, you owe $10, and Rachel, you owe fifteen big ones.
Monica: You know what? This is not over. We will play you again, and we will win, and you will lose, and you will beg, and we will laugh, and we will take every last dime you have, and you will hate yourselves forever.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, everyone is there ready for another poker game.]

Monica: Alright, check.
(Chandler, Monica, Joey, and Phoebe back their chairs away from the table.)

(Monica gets up, looks in Rachel's purse.)
Monica: Rachel, there's nothing in it.
(Monica gets Rachel her purse.)
Monica: OK, here you go. Good luck.
Rachel: (to Monica): Thank you. (to Ross): I saw your twenty-five, and I raise you... seven.

[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, all six are playing Pictionary at Monica's apartment. Monica is drawing a picture, and the three guys are guessing. She draws what looks like an airplane.]
Monica: (pointing at the drawing, upset) Bye... bye... BIRDIE.
(Monica glares at Phoebe.)
(Monica sits, Rachel gets up.)
Monica: That, you get? That, you get?
(Monica picks up a glass to take a drink, everyone ducks as though she was about to throw it.)
Monica: Look. I'm sure there's some friendly way to reconcile this! Um, have a seat. First of all, we haven't been introduced, I'm Monica Geller.
(Monica is dancing. At first she seems insecure and moves slowly, but then gets into the groove and swings her hips from side to side while holding her hands up. She then eats the last piece of pizza she was holding and again moves her hips from side to side, pushing her hands in the air in beat with the music. Her moves get more wildly while she's snapping her fingers. She loses balance and falls back onto a pink bean bag.)
MONICA: Hide the Lamp.
RACHEL: Monica, let it go.
Monica: Guys, hurry up! The flight leaves in four hours! It could take time to get a taxi! There could be traffic! The plane could leave early! When we get to London, there could be a line at customs! Come on!! (She runs back to her apartment.)
(He walks up behind Monica and gives her a big hug and a kiss on the neck.)
MONICA: Phoebe, tell her!
Monica: No, you were right. I don't have a plan. (There's a knock on the door.)
Joey: (on phone from Vegas) Hey Monica, it's Joey!
MONICA: You made it!
Monica: Waaay too special.
MONICA: That's fine.
Monica: No. He teaches a course on food criticism at the New School, so before we go to the movies I wanna go by there and make him try my bouillabaisse again. Oh, I cannot wait to read the front page of the Post tomorrow! "Restaurant reviewer admits: I was wrong about Monica."
Monica: (on phone, faking she's sick) I-I'm not gonna be able to make it into work today, I don't feel very good. (Joey makes a high throw and Monica has to catch it way over her head.) (Not sounding sick) Yes!! (Realizes what she just did.) (Sounding sick again) Wow! Uh, for a second there I thought I was really better, but I'm not. (Hangs up and keeps throwing the ball.)
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's apartment. Rachel is on the phone.]
Monica: (pointing at Rachel) De-caff. (to All) Okay, everybody, this is Rachel, another Lincoln High survivor. (to Rachel) This is everybody, this is Chandler, and Phoebe, and Joey, and- you remember my brother Ross?
OPENING TITLES [Scene: Monica and Rachels apartment. The whole gang is there.]
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, another showdown is occuring, only this time its between Ross, a plate of cookies, and the breast milk. They've been eyeing each other for a while now, and Chandler and Joey are getting bored. He checks his Ross and in frustration, shoves his watch in front of Ross's eyes as if saying, "Hurry it up already!" Finally, Ross scratches his head, does that again, itches his nose, scratches his head, grabs the bottle, takes a big swig, and piles several cookies into his mouth.]
MONICA: Man, man that is sharp. It must have cost you quite a few debloons.
MONICA: I can't believe you didn't tell me.
MONICA: Well, didn't you?
MONICA: What have I not told you?
MONICA: That is wild.
Monica: Yeah? What does she think of your little science project?

Monica: Okay! Very funny! Somebody let me out please?! Come on, Im cold! (She spills something.) And covered in marinara sauce! Come on! Let me out! (the door opens)
Monica: (hums for a while, then gives up, and in her head) If it bothers you that much, just go out and get the shoes. No. Don't do this. This is stupid! I don't have to prove anything, I'm gonna go get them...But then everyone will know. Unless I get them, and then wake up really early and put them back! ...I need help! (She buries her head in her pillow.)
Monica: Youre not gonna mess it up.

MONICA: Hell, I wanna see Joey.
MONICA: All I say is, she better get the job.
Monica: Joey is having a secret Days Of Our Lives party up on the roof!
Rachel: (as Monica) Yeah, and and, I'm just gonna pay for this with a check.
MONICA: Never call me from that phone.
MONICA: Rachel, that's all we do.
[Scene: Central Perk. Monica and Rachel are there, Joey enters wearing an old looking hat.]
Monica: Yeah, you were, but you decided to make salmon because you had some left over at the restaurant. And then you realised if you (Points at Rachel) bitched about it, then you (Points to herself) would stop cooking, and you (Points at Rachel) would have to make your famous baked potato and Diet Coke.
[Scene: Central Perk, Ross and Monica are watching Phoebe sleep.]
Monica: Why would I have the keys?
Monica: All right. The super couldnt figure out what it did. A $200 an hour electrician couldnt figure out what it did. Ive had seven pretty serious shocks. I officially give up.
(At Monica and Rachel's)
Monica: Hey, guess what Im doing tonight.
[Scene: Monica and Chandler's, Rachel is ranting about Jill to Chandler and Monica.]
MONICA: (enters) Oh my god.

Monica: So why-why wasnt Rosss stuff ruined? (Pause) And if you say the words medical marvel Im going to Easy Bake your head!
[Time lapse. Monica and Rachel, fixed up somewhat, emerge from a bedroom]
ROSS: Monica!
MONICA: Oh, sorry.
Monica: (To Chandler) You are going to make a joke about my special present! Why would you do that?!
Monica: Yeah, in-in-in the bathroom.
MONICA: Oh, thank you!
MONICA: Ok.
MONICA: All of us.

MONICA: Like?
MONICA: Charity?
MONICA: Alright, for the bizillionth time, yes I see other women in shower at the gym, and no I don't look.

MONICA: That was amazing!
(Monica enters from her bedroom)
MONICA: Uh, good.
Monica: Look, these clowns are trying to take us for a ride and I'm not gonna let 'em! And we're not a couple of suckers!
MONICA: (on phone) Yeah, hi, it's Monica. I just got a page.
MONICA: It's work.
Mischa: (to Phoebe, very quickly) Eh, he said, thank you very much, he thinks you look very pretty tonight, your hair, golden like the sun. (to Monica) So you're a chef?
Monica: Thank you. My hair is very amused.
(Everyone goes over to comfort Monica)
[Scene: At Monica and Rachel's.]

MONICA: You know, a party, or--
MONICA: Oh my god.
Monica: We’re waiting for the adoption lady, but, hey, I’m glad you’re here. I was cleaning this morning and I found this (she puts a box on the table and opens it). I don’t know if you wanna use it, but…
Monica: (gets up) OK, how does everybody like their burgers?
MONICA: Jacket now.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's apartment. Everyone is there. Monica is watching stock prices on a business channel.]

MONICA: All right, what's goin' on?
MONICA: So'd you guys have fun?
Monica: I don't know. Look he's a great guy and I love being with him but... you know. Things happen, and they happen. You don't plan these things.
MONICA: Doctor, can I see you for just a minute please? My brother has a slight phobia about needles.
MONICA: Really?
MONICA: That would be the work of a Blowfish.
