MNCA: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait one minute. Wait a minute. I believe this will change your mind. [Reads from paper] In a mediocre play, Joseph Tribbiana was able to achieve brilliant new levels of... continued on page 153...[turns it] sucking.
[Scene: Kathys play, Ross and Chandler are waiting for her in the lobby after the play.]
Chandler: Oh, come on. What was with that whole Black Bart speech? (mimicking): "When I play poker, I'm not a nice guy!"
Joey: Yeah, we just don't happen to know any women that know how to play poker.
Mike: I always wanted to play piano professionally, and I figured if I don't do this now, I never will.
PHOEBE: Why don't you play with your roommate?
CHANDLER: Don't play with his things.
CHANDLER: See, that's why we don't let her play.
Monica: (grabs the guitar away from her) No, Phoebe, Ill tell you what, if you get ready now Ill let you play it at the wedding.
Joey: (Laughs) Of course we do! Mike is playing a game that we used to play in high school. Yeah, where we pretend we don't know each other. We played all kinds of games. (To Mike) Hey, remember the one where I punch you in the face for not being cool?!
CHANDLER: Alright I'll tell you what, I'll play you for it.
PHOEBE: No. This game is grotesque. Twenty armless guys joined at the waist by a steel bar, forced to play soccer forever. Ahh, hello, human-rights violation.
Rachel: Alright, c'mon! (Miserably) Let's play Twister!
ROSS: [uncomfortable] Good, so everybody's here. Everybody's good. So, were you gonna play something, Phoebe?
CHANDLER: Hey Eddie, you uh, wanna play some foosball?
Chandler: Okay, lets play! The big game, Italy vs. China, apparently.
Chandler: Oh, good, good. Play more, 'cause I wanna see how it ends.
Mr. Heckles: I could play the oboe!
Ross: Great, actually. I'm thinking tonight, maybe the night. Yeah, I mean ah, the kids are gonna play together and then when they're asleep, I'm thinking Amanda and I break open a bottle of wine, and do a little "playing" ourselves.
Chandler: No, no, no, I dont, I dont really wanna play.
Ross: Um, Monica and I arent supposed to play football.
Chandler: Yeah, all right, Ill play.
Joey: (entering) G. I. Joe! Cool! Can I play?
Ross: All right, were gonna play.
[The next one is from Episode 322: The One With The Screamer, its the end of Joeys play.]
Rachel: Are you gonna let me play?
Ross: Okay, you wanna play rough, we can play rough.
Ross: Right. Okay, lets play. Lets go.
Donny: ...should be playing with the star of "General Hospital" Leslie Charleson. (applause) Welcome everybody. Good luck to all of you. Let's play Pyramid. All right? Now... we flipped a coin before the show, Gene, you won the toss, so you're gonna start. Which category would you like?
Monica: Here, I got it. I'll will play my message for you guys, and you can tell me if it's breezy enough.
All you want is a dingle, What you envy's a schwang, A thing through which you can tinkle, Or play with, or simply let hang...
[Scene: Central Perk, Ross and Chandler are entering after the play. Phoebe and Joey are already there.]
Monica: Do you want to go to the bathroom, or do you wanna play poker?
The Guys: (reacting to a play) Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Awww!
(He starts to play music.)
[Scene: Silvercup Studios, Joey is getting pointers on how to play Jessica Lockhart.]
Chandler: Uh then there was that dialect coach who helped you with that play where you needed a southern accent. Which after twenty hours of lessons still came out Jamaican.
Ross: So Im thinking about asking Rachel out tonight. Y'know maybe play her that song we wrote last week.
Ross: (sarcastic) And you made it through that? I wonder who's gonna play you in the movie!
Phoebe: Yep, and that's why we don't invite you to play.
Phoebe: Give me your hands. (He does and she smells his left hand.) Strings. Gimme it! (He gives her his right hand and she smells it as well.) Pick. Do you want to learn to play guitar?
Rachel: We should defiantly play football more often. Maybe theres a like league we could join or something.
Rachel: Yeah, you know what we should all do? We should play that game where everyone says one thing that they're thankful for.
Joey: No, they-they werent in the play.
Chandler: (running back) She said yes!! She said yes!! (To Joey) Awful play, man. Whoah. (To All) Her name's Aurora, and she's Italian, and she pronounces my name 'Chand-lrr'. 'Chand-lrr'. I think I like it better that way. (To Joey) Oh, listen, the usher gave me this to give to you. (He fishes a card out of his pocket.)
[cut to the end of the play]
The Casting Director: So uh well the director is insisting that whoever play that part be authentically, anatomically not Jewish. Do you know what Im saying?
Ross: No-no-no, I-I wanna play.
[Scene: The Theater, the play has ended and everyone is applauding. As soon as the cast leaves, the gang all groan and sit down heavily.]
Tour Guide: Maybe its crazy in a perfect world, a world without lab coats and blazers, but you not in a perfect world, you in a museum now. See that scientist in the classes, he and I used to play together all the time in grade school, but now (Turns around) Peter! Hey, Peter! Its me Rhonda! From PS-129! I shared my puddin which you man! I gave you my Snack Pack! (to Joey) See, he pretend he dont even here me!
(She hits the jukebox Fonzy style, and Its That Time of Season starts to play, as they start to kiss.)
[Scene: A Theatre, Joey is arriving to rehearse the play hes in.]
Joey: (to Ross) Wanna play strip poker for practice?
Joey: I mean naked game. Strip poker, we should totally play strip poker.
Chandler: Okay, umm, we all have to play strip poker.
Phoebe: So, Im here, ready to play.
Ross: You damn kids! You ring my bell one more time, I swear to (Opens the door to find Jill standing there.) Ohh, uh Jill. Umm, that-thats just a little game I play with the kids down the hall. Umm, theyve really taken a liking to me. (Quickly looks out to see if theyre watching.) Uhh whats-whats-whats the matter?
Joey: So the ah, plays pretty great, huh?
Phoebe: Oh, how do you play the shadow game?
Chandler: (interrupting) Oh my God! Play!
[Scene: The park, the gang is returning to play the second half of the game.]
[Scene: A Theater, the gang is in the audience wating for a play of Joey's to start.]
[Scene: Backstage at Joeys play, Joey is arriving, late.]
Mike: That's great. What kind of music do you play?
Ross: Well umm, yknow, I used to play.
Rachel: You have a play date with a stripper?!
Monica: Y'know what, you can play with my dollhouse.
Ross: Oh, just hold on a second. Im watching this rugby thing on ESPN. I dont know what the big deal is. Im man enough to play this sport.
(The play starts.)
Rachel: (she enters wearing a bath-robe) Hey... Hi you guys! Listen, you know what? I'm not feeling really well. I think I can't get out for the play.
Monica: Ah, well if you dont clear this off, you wont be getting one of those from me. But Bens coming over here tomorrow to play this game, this cant be there.
Rachel: Yeah, and he does it every year! That's why he's sending you to that play! That's why he sent us to that medieval restaurant and to that button factory!
Joey: You play hard to get.
Joey: Oh! Yeah, look there's this play all right? And I'm up for the part of this real cool like suave international guy. A real clothes horse. So I figure that everyone at the audition is gonna be wearing this kinda y'know, ultra-hip, high fashion stuff.
Phoebe: Fine! You go learn from your qualified instructor! But don't come crying to me when everyone's sick and tired of hearing you play Bad, Bad Leroy Brown!!
Emily: (laughs) Ross play rugby? I dont think so.
Rachel: Well, why I told him it's haunted. Two can play at this game. (gives Gladys to Monica)
Rachel: Do you wanna play football?
Ross: Enough with geography for the insane, okay? Lets play some ball, guys.
Joey: If you didnt want to play, why did you come to the party?
Ross: (stopping them) Okay, that-thats enough! Yknow, lets, lets let someone else play.
Rachel: Oh, yeah, sure, it's umm... (she picks up this bug and it starts to play the theme from Love Story)
Joey: Yeah! Well, I think well see if they actually let you play. Huh? I mean they tell you anything you want to hear like-like, "You look 19," and then they just take it away like-like, "No you dont."
Phoebe: Listen. Listen. (She starts to play and sing.) Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you?
Phoebe: Oh can I? Vegetarians never get to do the wishbone. It's really not fair either! You know, just because we don't eat the meat doesn't mean we don't like to play with the carcasses!
Chandler: Oh no problem, maybe Ill play with my left hand.
(She starts to play her song, but is stopped by Monica.)
[Scene: Monica and Chandler's, Monica is watching Phoebe play Ms. Pac-Man.]
Phoebe: Come on, play that funky music white boy.
Joey: Hey! Wanna play some foosball? Please?
Ross: Oh, I've got to go pick up Ben, we've got a play date this afternoon.
Phoebe: (to her date) Okay, and then this is the coffee house. This is where I play my music. (points to the stage)
ROSS: You know, I, I used to, ah, play keyboards in college.
Ross: Oh, thanks, thanks. So Monica tells me that uh, you dont want to play anymore because me and y'know my talent. Is that true?
Monica: OK, great. You'll tell us and we'll laugh. Let's play poker.
Chandler: You wanna play?
Liam: In fact were playing a game at the park tomorrow. Youre welcome to play too if you want.
Ross: Anyway. Thats when our Mom said we were not to play football ever again.
Chandler: Okay, she is the star of the play. And she is my girlfriend! I get to have sex with the star of the play!
(She goes one way; he goes the other. The camera pans back to Chandler and Monica, and needless to say, they're standing there dumbstruck as The King's (Elvis Presley to the yougin's) Viva, Las Vegas begins to play. Sing along with me now, "Viva! Las Vegas! Vivaaaaaa! Vivaaaaa! Las Vegassssss!!" Fade to Black.)
[Scene: Chandler and Joey's apartment. Joey is watching a rabbi play an electric guitar on TV. Phoebe enters.]
