<p>[Scene: The Hallway, Rachel walks up the stairs and knocks on Joey<65>s door.]</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Joey? Are you in there?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>[Cut to inside Monica and Chandler<65>s, Monica, Chandler and Joey are eating
|
||||
breakfast.]</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> (hearing Rachel and jumping up with his plate) Oh God! That<61>s Rachel!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Joey, you <b>have</b> to talk to her!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> No-no, I can<61>t! I can<61>t! Not after the other night, it<69>s
|
||||
just it<69>s<EFBFBD>too weird, okay? Don<6F>t tell her I<>m here! (Turns to run to
|
||||
the bathroom and his bagel falls off the plate onto the floor.) Don<6F>t eat that! (Runs
|
||||
to the bathroom as Rachel enters.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hey!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Hey!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Hey Rachel!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Is Joey here?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> I don<6F>t see him. (To Monica) Do you see him?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> I don<6F>t see him. Hey! Maybe he<68>s in the sugar bowl! (Opens the
|
||||
sugar bowl) Joey? Nope! (Closes the sugar bowl and they both laugh.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well, at least you make each other laugh.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> What<61>s up?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well, I haven<65>t seen him since that night that he told me how he
|
||||
y<EFBFBD>know<EFBFBD> I don<6F>t know, I think he<68>s avoiding me. Why is that bagel on
|
||||
the floor?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> We were playing a game.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Ew, was Chandler naked? Sort of like a, like a ring toss kind of
|
||||
situation?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Sure.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> What?! No! No!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> All right. Well listen, if you see Joey will you just tell him
|
||||
uh<EFBFBD>tell him I miss him. (Exits and Joey enters.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> (To Joey) Okay, did you hear that?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah, a naked bagel game? (Picks up his dropped bagel.) (To Chandler)
|
||||
Dude, I don<6F>t know. That<61>s a pretty small hole.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Honey, you gotta talk to her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I can<61>t! Y<>know? You guys don<6F>t know what it<69>s like to
|
||||
put yourself out there like that and just get shot down.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (incredulous) I don<6F>t know what that<61>s like?! Up until I was
|
||||
25 I thought the only response to, "I love you," was, "Oh crap!"</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Hello? No rejection? I got shot down at fat camp! Boy, kids are mean
|
||||
when they<65>re hungry.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> All right so, so what do I do?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> This is Rachel. I mean, what are you gonna do, never going to talk to
|
||||
her again? I mean I know it<69>s weird, it<69>s awkward, but you gotta at least try.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah. Okay. (Goes to take a bite out of the previously mentioned bagel.)
|
||||
Whoa! (Stops.) I almost forgot this was on your<75></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (interrupting him) We didn<64>t play it!!</p>

<p>[Scene: Central Perk, Phoebe is holding a book as she, Rachel, and Monica drink some
|
||||
tea as Chandler looks on.]</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay, so when you<6F>re done with your tea I<>ll look at your
|
||||
leaves and tell you your fortune.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> I didn<64>t know you read tea leaves.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh yeah, I<>ve done it for years. I actually stopped because I was
|
||||
so accurate. Y<>know, and-and y<>know, one of the great joys of life is
|
||||
it<EFBFBD>s-it<69>s wondrous unpredictability. Y<>know? And also tea tends to give me
|
||||
the trots.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, I<>m done. Read mine.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay. (Looks at the leaves.) Ooh, I see a ladder. (Checks the book)
|
||||
Which can mean either a promotion or a violent death.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> (stunned) I-I<>m the head chef. I-I can<61>t get promoted.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Uh-hmm. Uh-hmm, who<68>s next?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay, I<>m done. Do mine.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay. (Reads the leaves) Umm, oh! Okay, I see a circle.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Ah.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh! (Checking the book) Which can either mean you<6F>re having a baby
|
||||
or you<6F>re gonna make a scientific discovery!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well, I have been spending a lot of time in the lab.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> What does yours say Pheebs?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Umm<6D> Wow, all right. (Checks the book.) Wow! Yay! Ooh, I<>m
|
||||
gonna meet a guy! And really soon! And he<68>s gonna be the man of my dreams. Probably
|
||||
not the guy I had a dream about last night. (Points at Chandler.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> (entering) Hey! Has anyone seen my shirt? It<49>s a button down, like a,
|
||||
like a faded salmon?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> You mean your pink shirt?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Faded salmon color.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> No, I-I haven<65>t seen your pink shirt.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Great! Great. Then I must<73>ve left it at Mona<6E>s. I knew it!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Well, I<>m sure you get another one at <i>Ann Taylor<6F>s</i>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> That<61>s my favorite shirt! Okay? I love that shirt!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well just ask Mona to give it back!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> I don<6F>t know. I mean I-I guess I could. It<49>s just that we
|
||||
didn<EFBFBD>t really end things such good terms. And if I go over there I<>d be ignoring
|
||||
the one thing she asked me to do when we broke up, jump up my own ass and die. (Walks
|
||||
away.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> (noticing a guy sitting by the green post looking at her) Oh wait a
|
||||
second you guys<79>for the last couple weeks I<>ve been that guy everywhere I go. We
|
||||
take the same bus. We go to the same bookstore, the same dry cleaners; maybe he<68>s the
|
||||
tea guy. (He gets up to leave, and smiles at Phoebe.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Phoebe, did you see that?! He totally checked you out! He is so cute!
|
||||
(Looking at his tea.) Mine has a picture of <i>The Village People</i>, what does that
|
||||
mean?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>(Joey enters.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hi!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Hey.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>(He slowly walks to the other side of the couch and sits down at the table, an awkward
|
||||
silence follows.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hi.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Hi.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>(More awkward silence.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Tea gives Phoebe the trots.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>[Scene: Monica and Chandler's, Chandler is cooking as Rachel paces nervously.]</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> So I thought Joey and I would be okay once we hung out, but it<69>s
|
||||
not even like we know how to be with each other anymore.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> I know it<69>s tough now, but things will get better.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> How do you know that? What if it just gets worse and worse and worse, to
|
||||
the point where we can<61>t even be in the same room with each other?!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> I<>m not great at the advice, can I interest you in a sarcastic
|
||||
comment? Some cheese?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Honey, what is the Bruce Springsteen CD in the Kat Stevens case?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Let<65>s just say if I can<61>t find the right CD case I just put
|
||||
it in the nearest one.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, where is the Kat Stevens CD?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> In the James Taylor case.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Where is the James Taylor CD?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Honey, I<>m gonna save you some time, 200 CDs, not one of them in
|
||||
the right case.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay. No need to panic. Deep breathes everyone. Okay umm uh, we<77>re
|
||||
just gonna have to spend some time and put the CDs in the right cases.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Well, if we<77>re gonna do that we should come up with some kind of
|
||||
order. Y<>know alphabetically or by genre?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Hmm, I don<6F>t know. We really have to talk this through.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh my God!! You guys have such problems!! I feel so terrible for you!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, I-I<>m sorry. You and Joey, your both focusing on this
|
||||
uncomfortable thing, what you need to do is to change the subject. Next time you see him
|
||||
try to get him talking about something else.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh yeah. That makes sense.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yeah, like I don<6F>t know, maybe you have a work problem that you
|
||||
need his advice on.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Ooh, I can do that.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Good. (To Chandler) Uh honey, the <i>Miami Vice</i> soundtrack? Really?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> They were just giving those away at the store (off Monica<63>s look)
|
||||
in exchange for money.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> (entering) Hey!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hi.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Uh I really don<6F>t know what to tell you Rach, I really don<6F>t.
|
||||
I mean, maybe Joey can help you out with your, with your big work problem.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yeah Joey she<68>s<EFBFBD>Rachel<65>s got this really big work
|
||||
problem, and it is a head scratcher. Wow! (To Chandler) Y<>know what, if we<77>re
|
||||
gonna make dinner we<77>re gonna have to leave. Yeah. (She and Chandler exit.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> So you uh, have a<>big work problem?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah it<69>s umm<6D> Yeah it<69>s uh<75> It-it<69>s
|
||||
y<EFBFBD>know<EFBFBD>It<EFBFBD>s nothing.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Huh. Okay. (Awkward silence.) So uh, I think I<>m gonna take off.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah<61>No wait! Joey no wait it is. It<49>s something.
|
||||
It<EFBFBD>s-it<69>s umm<6D>it<69>s my boss.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah, and umm my baby.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> My boss wants to buy my baby!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> What?! Oh my-oh my God!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> I know I told you, it<69>s a really big problem.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> What he wants to buy your baby?!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Can you believe that?!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> That<61>s crazy!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> That<61>s what I told him!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Okay, how did this even happen?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well I<>ll tell ya! (Pause) See uh my-my boss and his
|
||||
wife<EFBFBD>They-they can<61>t have children. So umm, and that<61>we were at the
|
||||
Christmas party, and he got drunk, and he said to me, "Rachel, I want to buy your
|
||||
baby."</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Man! When you said it was a problem about your boss and the baby I figured
|
||||
it was something about maternity leave.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Ohh! Yeah! (Pause) Yeah that-that would<6C>ve been a much simpler
|
||||
problem.</p>

|
||||
<p>[Scene: A newsstand, Phoebe is looking at a magazine as the guy from before walks by
|

and picks up a newspaper.]</p>
|

<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh hello.</p>
|

|

<p><b>Guy:</b> Oh, it<69>s you. I see you everywhere. I<>m Jim, Jim Nelson.</p>
|

|

<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh Jim, Jim Nelson I<>m Phoebe, Phoebe Buffay. We certainly have
|

been seeing a lot of each other lately. </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Jim:</b> We have. Maybe we<77>ll be seeing each other at dinner tomorrow night,
|
||||
say around 8 o<>clock?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Well, maybe we will. (Starts to walk away.) Oh! (She turns around and
|

the exchange information.)</p>

<p>[Scene: Outside Mona<6E>s Apartment, Ross is knocking on the door.]</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Mona? (There<72>s no answer, so he starts to leave but remembers where
|
||||
her extra key is. He reaches atop a hall light just outside her door and grabs the key. He
|
||||
looks at in triumph as the pain from it being hot moves along his nervous system to his
|
||||
brain, and when it arrives his brain orders his hand to drop the hot key and his mouth to
|
||||
squeal in pain. After dropping the key he pulls his shirtsleeve over his hand and uses the
|
||||
key to open the door and enter Mona<6E>s apartment.) Okay, if I were a salmon shirt,
|
||||
where would I be? (He hears a key in the door and as it opens he dives behind the couch.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Mona:</b> (entering, with her date) I am so sorry I spilled wine all over your
|
||||
shirt.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Mona's Date:</b> Oh, it<69>s okay.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Mona:</b> No, it<69>s still wet. Y<>know what? Let me get it out before it
|
||||
sets. Ooh, I have something you can wear. Here. (Hands him Ross<73>s shirt.) </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Mona's Date:</b> Oh umm, I-I don<6F>t know if I want to wear a woman<61>s shirt.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>Mona:</b> No-no that<61>s a man<61>s shirt.</p>
|
||||
|

<p><b>Mona's Date:</b> It<49>s awfully pink. (Ross mouths, "It<49>s

salmon!")</p>

|
