words in movies
[Scene: Monica and Chandler's, Monica is watching Phoebe play Ms. Pac-Man.]
Chandler: Why do you want to play this game so bad?
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: Okay. (Pushes play.) Okay, thats him! Thats him! Thats Cujo! Thats Cujo!
Joey: All right, my New Year's resolution is to learn how to play the guitar.
PHOEBE: OK, um, I'm gonna play, um, some songs about grandparents, OK. [singing] Now, grandma's a person who everyone likes, she bought you a train and a bright, shiny bike. But lately she hasn't been coming to dinner, And last time you saw her she looked so much thinner. Now, your mom and your dad said she moved to Peru, but the truth is she died and some day you will too. La-la-la la la-la-la la la-la-la la...
CHANDLER: Yeah, Ross can't go so it's between my friend Eric Prower who has breath issues and Dan with the poking. [starts poking Monica in the shoulder] 'Did you see that play? Do you want some more beer? Is that Spike Lee?'
RADIO: Uh, we've just gotten a call from Rachel, and she told us what Ross did. It's pretty appalling, and Ross, if you're listening, I don't wanna play your song anymore. Why don't we devote our time to a couple that stands a chance? Avery, Michelle's sorry she hit you with her car and she hopes you two will work it out.
(They start to leave Central Perk. The band starts to play "Here, There and Everywhere" by the Beatles. The crowd rises from their seats. Phoebe and Chandler walk down the aisle. Phoebe really glows with happiness. So does Mike who watches her walk down the isle. When Phoebe and Chandler arrive, they kiss and Phoebe walks to her bridesmaids.)
Dirk: Oh! Hey well listen, I play a scientist on "Days". And my character has just won the Nobel prize.
(Ross starts to play. He plays a key that has a back beat sound attached to it. Over the background music he plays the sound of a barking dog, a mooing cow, a laser beam, someone coughing, a jackhammer, a doorbell, a police siren, a ray gun, breaking dishes, and for a closer he plays the sound of a loud crash. Basically, the music sucks.)
ROB: The thing is, I think some of the parents, they were kinda hopin' that you'd play more songs about like, barnyard animals.
Phoebe: But, lets play this one first. And remember whoever talks first loses!
Joey: Apparently, theres like a million guys out there that can play Mac, and theres only this one robot and this one guy who controls it! I didnt know he could get me fired! What am I going to do?
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.
SUSIE: Remember the class play? You, you pulled up my skirt and the entire auditorium saw my underpants.
Rachel: Noo, I y'know I don't see why she has to play with you, that's all. I mean doesn't she have any y'know other stripper moms friends of her own?
Ross: Uh, so this play umm, what do you think? Its-its gotten great reviews! Yknow the uh
Rachel: Oh right, cause you always pull your pants down at the count of three and play Wipe-out on your butt cheeks.
Monica: Ok, I'm sensing that this is some kind of word play, because you are pink with barely controlled glee.
Kathy: Acting! Chandler, this is my job! Im-Im playing a part in a play! How can you not trust me?!
Joey: Look, you guys have been to every play Ive ever been in, have I ever had chemistry on stage?
PHOEBE: No, huh uh, I'm sorry, no. No, I'm not some like sloppy second, charity band. You know what, there are thousands of places in this city where people would be happy to pay to hear me play. (Out on the sidewalk, singing) When I play, I play for me, I don't need your charity. (Someone puts a coin in her guitar case) Thank you! La la la la la la la....
CHANDLER: Oh, you're right I, I should play in the hay. Forget about the fact that I just dropped 400 dollars to replace a bracelet that I hated to begin with. Bring on the hay. [sits down at the bar]
Phoebe: Based on this play? ...Based on this play!
[Scene: The Theatre, Joey and Kate are getting ready to rehearse the play.]
Rachel: You're right! I mean you're right! It wasn't just the Weebles, but it was the Weeble Play Palace, and and the Weebles' Cruise Ship. Oh, which had this little lifeboat for the Weebles to wobble in.
Phoebe: All right, all right... I'll play if we don't keep score!
Ross: Okay, Im gonna play my sperm card one more time.
Phoebe: Thats okay. All right, Im gonna play song thats really, really sad. Its called Magician Box Mix Up. (she turns her guitar upside down to play it.)
Monica: (pleasantly surprised) Ping pong? (to Chandler) Honey, they have ping pong! Let's play!
Joey: We should really learn how to play the real way. (Moves another piece.)
Casting Director #1: Hold it. Im sorry, the surprise is a new swing set, if you could play it a little less intense?
Mike: My name in Mike, and I do play piano.
Monica: How about we play for more money, say 150?
Ross: All right here. Watch me execute the three Ps of championship play. Power. (swings the racquet) Precision. (swings the racquet.) and penache. (does a backswing and hits Sarah whos started up the stairs, knocking her down, they both watch in horror.)
Chandler: What would you give to a kid if he wanted a ticket to play with?
Richard: Could you uh, could you lower your script? I need to see your face so I can uh, play off your reaction.
Rachel: Ok! (whispering) Joey is having a secret Days Of Our Lives party up on the roof and he sent you guys to the play to get rid of you!
Ross: Okay. All right. So lets see, lets play from the trash can, to the lightpost. Right. Two hand touch, well kick off.
Chandler: You told him to play the boxer gay!!
Rachel: Okay, well if I stop playing with Joey and Chandler, can I play with Mark?
Joey: Uh! That's a tough one. Oh! Wait a minute, this happened to me before! Yeah, I was auditioning for a play and the producer fell asleep and... (pause) no wait a minute... it was me who fell asleep... Yeah I mean hey, Shakespeare, how about a chase scene once in a while!?
Phoebe: You are really good! I play a little guitar myself.
Phoebe: Why, do I have a feeling thats not as happy as it sounds? (Joey points out one going into the chipper to her, as this haunty, demonic music starts to play in the background) No! Nooooo!!! (she winces in horror and hides her face against Joeys shoulder, as she sees the tree spit out from the chipper.)
Monica: Wow! Thats great! Dad must really like you, he doesnt ask just anyone to play.
(The band starts to play, and the recessional starts. Ross tries to take Emilys hand, but she snatches it away from him.)
Chandler: Say, Joe, I had a strange idea of what we could do for our last night. What do you say we play a little uh, foosball for money?
Chandler: Well, so, play for the next 30 minutes and then write until he gets home.
ROSS: [reading his list] Ok, ok, number one: The way you cry at game shows. Number two: how much you love your friends. Number three: the way you play with your hair when you're nervous. Number four: how brave you are for starting your life over. Number five: how great you are with Ben.
PHOEBE: Would you stop already? Get out of the bitter barn and play in the hay.
PHOE: How come you're watching a rabbi play electric guitar?
Joey: Excellent! Lets play Bamboozled! Chandler, youll go first. What is the capital of Columbia?
Chandler: (running up) Hey Joey, do you wanna play football or you wanna.. (sees Marhan) Hi, Im Chandler.
Ross: No, women are welcome to play.
Monica: Well. Sounds like you're writing yourself a little play there Rach. Wow! Let me know how that one turns out.
Joey: Oh hey, no, you're not welcome. Okay, look, I hate this! You guys keep embarrassing me! (To Monica) Yesterday, Rachel found your razor in our bathroom and I didn't know what to say, so I said it was mine and-and that I was playing a woman in a play. And one thing led to another and (He puts his leg on the chair and pulls up his pants leg to reveal that he now has shaved legs.)
Mike: I always wanted to play piano professionally, and I figured if I don't do this now, I never will.
(The Lion Sleeps Tonight starts to play. Marcel starts to dance.)
Monica: Okay, so you were trying to play bad this whole time.
The Director: Stop!! Stop it! You must stop! You are bad actors! This is a terrible play! Ill see you in the morning. (exits)
RACHEL: Now I'm mommy in this little play? Alright look, I refuse to get sucked into this like, weird little Geller dimension thing OK. So I'm gonna go and take a nice long hot bubble bath because you kids are driving me crazy. [goes in the bathroom]
Chandler: Oh yes, yes, we could play some other game... like, uh, I don't know... Pictionary?
Joey: That's great. Listen, wouldn't it be great though if I got to play Ben's dad?
Joey: Yeah, we just don't happen to know any women that know how to play poker.
Ross: (To the rest of Central Perk) We're rehearsing a Greek play.
Joey: Okay uh, look I know youre a great actor, okay? And you play all those Shakespeare guys and stuff
Joey: Who cares, we'll eat at the sink! Come on, let's play!
Phoebe: Okay. Do you guys want me to play for you?
Phoebe: Oh! Alright. Well I think the reason people laugh is becuase it's a play on the word roomy.
ROSS: [impatient] Play it.
[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!"
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.
PHOEBE: Why don't you play with your roommate?
CHANDLER: See, that's why we don't let her play.
CHANDLER: Don't play with his things.
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?!
Rachel: Alright, c'mon! (Miserably) Let's play Twister!
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.
CHANDLER: Alright I'll tell you what, I'll play you for it.
Chandler: Oh, good, good. Play more, 'cause I wanna see how it ends.
CHANDLER: Hey Eddie, you uh, wanna play some foosball?
ROSS: [uncomfortable] Good, so everybody's here. Everybody's good. So, were you gonna play something, Phoebe?
Chandler: Okay, lets play! The big game, Italy vs. China, apparently.
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.
Joey: (entering) G. I. Joe! Cool! Can I play?
Ross: All right, were gonna play.
Chandler: Yeah, all right, Ill play.
Monica: Here, I got it. I'll will play my message for you guys, and you can tell me if it's breezy enough.
Rachel: Are you gonna let me play?
[The next one is from Episode 322: The One With The Screamer, its the end of Joeys play.]
Ross: Okay, you wanna play rough, we can play rough.
Ross: Right. Okay, lets play. Lets go.
Monica: Do you want to go to the bathroom, or do you wanna play poker?
[Scene: Central Perk, Ross and Chandler are entering after the play. Phoebe and Joey are already there.]
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...
The Guys: (reacting to a play) Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Awww!
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.
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?
Ross: So Im thinking about asking Rachel out tonight. Y'know maybe play her that song we wrote last week.
