<p align="center"><strong>Opening Credits</strong></p>
<p>[Scene: Monica, Chandler, and Phoebe's, continued from earlier, everyone is now in the
living room drinking champagne.]</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay! Wait-wait-wait! Shhh! (Bangs on her class with a spoon to make a
toast.) Okay, umm, I just wanna say that…I love you guys so-so much and-and thank you
for being here on my special night. (Chandler clears his throat.) Our special night. I
mean it just wouldnt be my—our-our night, if you all werent here to

<p><b>Chandler:</b> Its okay, I want this to be your night too. (Raises his class.)
To Monica.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Awww, come on—wait—stop it. Okay, to Monica.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> To Monica!</p>
<p>(They all say to Monica, clink their glasses, and drink.)</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> So have you decided on a band for the wedding? Because, yknow,
Im kinda musical.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah Pheebs, honey, she just got engaged a couple of hours ago. I doubt
shes even had time to…</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Well speaking of chiming in, remember the time you burned down my
apartment?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> (To Monica) Yeah, youre on your own.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yknow what we should do? We should all get dressed up and go to
have champagne at <i>The Plaza</i>.</p>
<p>(They all agree and start to go and get ready.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> But I-I-I cant stay too long, I gotta get up early for a commercial
audition tomorrow and I gotta look good. Im supposed to be playing a 19-year-old.
(Everyone stops in their tracks upon hearing this.) What?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> So when you said, "Get up early," did you mean 1986?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> You guys dont think I look 19?</p>
<p>(A brief silence ensues.)</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh, 19! We thought you said 90!</p>
<p>(They all politely laugh and stop just as quickly.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay everybody, lets go! Lets go!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Okay.</p>
<p>(They all leave and Joey comes back in quickly.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> (To Phoebe) Hey, is uh the rest of my candy bar around here?</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh honey no, you ate it all.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> I was afraid of that. </p>
<p>(Walks out and after he closes the door Phoebe turns around and takes a bite out of
what is left of his candy bar.)</p>
<p>[Scene: Monica and Chandlers bedroom, theyre getting ready.]</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (looking at her hand) Yknow what shoes would look great with this
ring? Diamond shoes! (Sees Chandler sitting on the bed.) Youre not getting dressed.
(Chandler quietly folds over the comforter on the bed making a spot for her.)</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Know what I mean?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yeah, but I dont think we have time.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Theres gonna be a wedding. Youre gonna be the bride. Two
hundred people are going to be looking at you in a clean white dress.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (lustily) Lets do it! (She kisses him and they fall back onto the
bed.)</p>
<p>[Scene: Monica, Chandler, and Phoebe's, time lapse, Chandler is fully dressed and
slowly walking out of the bedroom with a distressed look on his face.]</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (chasing after him) Chandler! It happens to lots of guys! You-you-you
were probably tired, you had a lot of champagne, dont worry about it!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (motioning with his hands) Im not worried, Im uh, Im
fascinated. Yknow its like uh, Biology! Which is funny because in high school
I uh, I-I failed Biology and tonight Biology failed me. (Exits as Phoebe enters from her
room with her guitar.)</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Check it out. Okay, I can play this when the guests are coming in. Okay.
(Singing) <i></i></p><i>
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>"First time I met Chandler, I thought he was gay.<br>
But here I am singing on his wedding day!"</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
</i>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Phoebe!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> If you wouldve let me finish, it goes on to say that hes
probably not gay.</p>
<p>[Scene: Joey and Rachel's, Chandler is looking at the foosball table.]</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Sure, you guys dont have this problem, youre made of wood.
(Rachel comes out of the bathroom) Hey!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hey!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> You look great!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> (quietly) Oh, thanks.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> You okay over there?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> I dont know, yknow? I feel a little umm… No,
yknow what? Never mind, Im gonna be fine.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Oh, dont worry about it I mean you probably were tired, you had
a lot of champagne, it happens to everybody.</p>
<p>[Rachel exits into the hallway just as Ross is coming up the stairs.]</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Hey!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hi!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Wow! Happy Monicas night!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well thank you, you too.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Thanks.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hey, do you believe this? Do you believe they are actually getting
married?</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Well sure. But I get married all the time so…</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh…</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> You okay?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah, I guess. I-I… I mean, do-do you think were ever gonna
have that?</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> You mean, we—you and me?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh no-no-no-no-no, no, no! We, you with someone and me with someone.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oh good, you scared me for a minute.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Shake it off.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> I mean—no, its just cause, its just cause you
and I were like a nightmare. (Screams.) No, but there was some good times.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No, absolutely. Yknow like it was umm…</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Surely you can think of something good.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah, just give me a minute! (Thinking) Oh well, yes, I can think of one
good thing.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> What?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well you uh, you were always really good at the uh, at the uh the stuff.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Yeah? I was good at the stuff huh?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Uh-hmm, uh-hmm, yeah, yeah, I really liked your hands.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> My hands?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Yeah?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Uh-huh.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (to his hands) Way to go guys. Yknow, you-you were really good at
the stuff too.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh, I know. Hey, yknow what we never did? (Ross looks at her.) Oh
no, not that. (Ross nods okay.) We uh, we never had a bonus night!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> A what?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yknow, bonus night. Yknow, when two people break up but they
get back together for just one night.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> One night, just-just sex. No strings attached?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah-yeah, we never had that,</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> No.</p>
<p>[Silence.]</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Okay, this is getting a little crazy. I mean, Im-Im sure it
would be amazing but I…gotta say I really-really dont think it would be a good
idea. Yknow? I really, really…dont.</p>
<p>[Scene: Joey and Rachel's, Chandler is playing <i>Playstation</i>, <i>Crash Team Racing</i>
to be exact (hes in last on Hot Air Skyway to be more exact) as Joey enters from his
room desperately trying to look like a 19-year-old. Hes got the wool cap, hes
got the cut-off <i>Knicks</i> jersey over the faded T-shirt, and hes got the whole
pants-around-the-knees-showing-off-the-boxers thing that rich, white, suburban kids have
adopted in a desperate and extremely futile attempt to try to look like theyre from
the inner-city.]</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Sup? Sup dude?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (putting his hands up) Take whatever you want, just please dont
hurt me.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> So youre playing a little <i>Playstation</i>, huh? Thats
whack! <i>Playstation</i> is whack! Sup with the whack<i> Playstation</i>,
sup?! Huh? Come on, am I 19 or what?!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Yes, on a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being the dumbest a person can look,
you are definitely 19.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Come on man, really how old?!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Young! Youre a man-child okay?! Now go get changed because
everybodys ready and please, oh please, keep my underwear!</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Wow thanks! (He goes into his bedroom and closes the door.)</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Joe?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Uh, youve had a lot of sex right?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> When? Today? Some, not a lot.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Well, its just the reason that Im asking is because I kind
of eh, uh, I was unable to—I mean I really wanted to, but I couldnt….
There huh—hmm, there-there was an incident.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Dont worry about that man, that happens.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Its happened to you?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah! Once.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Well, whatd you do?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> I did it anyway.</p>
<p>[Scene: Monica, Chandler, and Phoebe's, Monica is in the living room and Phoebe is in
her room.]</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Phoebe! Come on! Lets go! (Knocks on her door.) Come on! (Phoebe
enters with guitar and not ready to go.) Why arent you dressed yet?!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Im sorry, but I just wrote the best dance song for your wedding.
Check this out. (Gets ready to play.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (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.</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Really?! Oh thats so exciting! Thank you! Thanks Mon! Oh but Mon,
if you touch my guitar again Ill have to pound on you for a little bit.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Fair enough, now go get ready!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay. (She goes to get ready.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Ill get everybody else (Does so), finally we can start celebrating
my—(She gasps and is stopped by the sight of Ross and Rachel making out in the hall.)
Im sorry, uh apparently Ive opened the door to the past.</p>
<p align="center"><strong>Commercial Break</strong></p>
<p>[Scene: Monica, Chandler, and Phoebe's, continued from before the commercial break.
Monica is walking into the apartment followed by Ross and Rachel.]</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Okay, Monica. Mon, uh what-what you just saw…</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (interrupting) Can I ask you just a little question, huh? Why tonight?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> See, Ive been waiting my whole life to be engaged, and unlike some
people Im only planning on doing this once. So, uh yknow, maybe this is
selfish and Im sorry about it, but I was kinda hoping tonight could just be about
that.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh honey, but it is just about…</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> It is! It is!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> No its not! No! No! Now its about you and Ross getting back
together!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> See yeah umm, you kinda stole my thunder!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Okay! Ho-ho! We did not steal your thunder because we are <b>not</b>
getting back together!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah. No. And you know what? Nobody even saw!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Yeah!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Thats true.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Honey I swear it we just kissed. </p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> It was just a kiss. (Phoebe enters and overhears this.)</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> You guys kissed!!!!! What does this mean?!! Are you, are you getting
back together?! Can I sing at your wedding?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Thunder being stolen!!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay come on Phoebe, its nothing! Monica, come on!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Look lets not make a big deal out of this! It was a <b>one</b> time
thing. It doesnt even matter!</p>
<p>(Chandler and Joey enter and overhear that.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Oh my God! I cannot believe you guys are talking about this! The problems
in the bedroom are between the man and the woman!!! All right?!! Now Chandler is doing the
best he can!!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (angrily) I dont think thats what they were talking about
Joe!!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> What a great night, Chandler cant do it, these guys kissed…
(Points to Ross and Rachel.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> What? </p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> What?!</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> You guys kissed! Oh my—this is huge!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oh no!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No-no, its really not huge.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> And; people thinking its huge has led Monica to believe that <b>we</b>
are stealing her thunder. (To Monica) Which we are not!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Well, were still talking about it, arent we?</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Well yeah, that and Chandlers problem.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Monica-Monica-Monica-Monica, listen-listen, listen, listen, would-would it
make you feel better if we all stop talking about Ross and Rachel.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yes that would be lovely.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> You got it. Okay. Now, I can pass for 19 right?!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Yes, you can pass for 19.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Really?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Yes!</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Seriously?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Seriously? Seriously, no! You can play your own age which is 31!</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> (gasps) Im 30!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Joey, you are not! Youre 31.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> (realizes) Aww crap!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay, so <i>The Plaza</i>! Okay, well get us some Mai Thais,
(To Chandler) maybe no more for you though.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yknow what? I-I think that umm, I dont feel like going to <i>The
Plaza</i>.</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Why?!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Honey, Monica, this is ridiculous! Look…</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> No-no, I-I really dont want to talk about it! I dont! (To
Rachel) Especially with you. (Goes into her room.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Psss, that is whack!</p>
<p>[Time lapse, Phoebe is playing the guitar for Joey.]</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> (shes strumming something) Yeah? (Joey nods yes.) Okay, I think
Ill play it at the wedding.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> 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."</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Well, I dont think Monica is gonna take this away.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Wouldnt she?</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Would she?</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Would she? (He smells something and gasps as he realizes what it is.) You
ate my candy bar!</p>
<p>[Scene: Rachels bedroom, shes pacing as Ross knocks on her door and opens
it a little to stick his hands in.]</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Guess who? (Enters fully.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hey.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Hey, I just realized we kinda left some stuff up in the air…</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What do you think Monica meant when she said she didnt want to
talk, especially with me? I mean, why not especially you and me? We were both out there
kissing.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Still thinking about it huh?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Come on! Serious-ser-ser-seriously, what did she mean by that?
(Mimicking Monica.) Especially you!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (loosening his tie) Oh, who cares?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> I care!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (tightening his tie) And so do I.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yknow what, I-I have to go talk to her, would you let me just get
changed?</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Okay. Sure. (Sits down on her bed.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Am I <b>going</b> to let you watch me undress?</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (sitting up) No! (Exits.)</p>
<p>[Scene: Monica and Chandlers bedroom, they are both getting undressed.]</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I cant believe her, yknow its just—its so
typical.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Now Monica, I know youre upset, but dont forget. There is
going to be a wedding, you are going to throw the bouquet, and <b>then</b> theres
going to be a honeymoon, maybe in Paris.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Paris?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> We will take a moonlit walk on the Rue de la (mumbles something).</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Keep talking.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Then we will sprinkle rose pedals on the bed and make love. Not just
because its romantic, but because I can!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I love you!</p>
<p>(They start making out and both start to feel something growing below the belt line.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (in a French accent) Bonjour, monsieur.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Okay, dont say anything, you might scare it away.</p>
<p>(There is a knock on the door.)</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Its Paris, who knows were here!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (opening the door) Hi Pheebs, whats up? (She enters.)</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Okay, you said I could sing at your wedding so, Im just gonna need
a small deposit.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> What?!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Yknow, just some good faith money to hold the date.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Pheebs, were not giving you a deposit for our wedding!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh, I see. (Exits angrily.)</p>
<p>[Cut to the living room, Joey is eating a sandwich.)</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> They break your heart, dont they?</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Yknow, I dont really need their permission.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah! If you wanna sing at their wedding, well you sing at their wedding!</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Yeah! And if you wanna look 19, then you… You gotta do something
about your eyes.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> What?! Whats wrong with my eyes.</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> They give you away! Theres just-theres just too much wisdom
in there. (Joey nods in agreement.) Just put some tea bags on there for like 15 minutes.</p>
<p><b>Joey:</b> And thatll get rid of my wisdom?</p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Maybe just 10 minutes for you.</p>
<p>[Cut back to Monica and Chandlers room, they are making out again as theres
another knock on the door.]</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Oh, give her the deposit! Give her the ring! I dont care!</p>
<p>(Monica opens the door to Ross and Rachel.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yes.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Monica, what did you mean before when you said you didnt want to
talk to anyone, especially me?</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> What a great apology! (To Monica) And you accept! Okay, bye-bye!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No-no, seriously-seriously, what was the especially me part about?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Well, lets just say its not the first time youve
stolen my thunder.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (To Rachel) Hey, heres a thought.</p>
<p>(Rachel ignores him and follows Monica into the kitchen.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Monica, what are you talking about?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> My Sweet Sixteen! Remember, you went to third base with my cousin
Charlie.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (entering) Ahh, third base.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Its all everybody at the party could talk about!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Monica, yknow what? The only reason I did that was because your
party was so boring!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (gasps) We had a caricaturist!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh!! </p>
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> (singing, angrily) </p>
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>"<i>Whenever I get married, guess who wont get to sing?<br>
Somebody named Geller</i>!<i> And somebody else named Bing</i>!"</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>(Exits.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Monica, your Sweet Sixteen was like a million years ago.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> And yet, here we are doing it again.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Ugh, Monica I dont want to steal your stupid thunder!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Oh please! Why else would you have made out with Ross?!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Got me. (He shows of his hands.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> All right, easy mimey, the moment has passed, it aint gonna
happen!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I just thought it would be nice if I could have just this one night!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> I swear, I never wanted any part of your night!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Oh, is that why you did it in the secret hallway where nobody ever goes?!</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Uh, Rachel, Ive been thinking. I dont think us getting
together tonight is such a good idea. Im calling it off.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (To Ross) Why to save your dignity my man.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> (ignoring them) Monica, why? Why would I ever want to take away from
your night?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I dont know! I dont—maybe youre feeling a little
resentful. Maybe ah, maybe you thought youd get married first! Maybe you cant
stand the fact that your formerly <b>fat</b> friend is getting married before you!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh wow. That—yknow what? That is so unfair. Yknow what?
Now I <b>want</b> to steal your thunder! Come on Ross, lets go have sex!</p>
<p>(Ross tries to dismiss it by making that sound, but decides to go for it and follows
Rachel.)</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (yelling after them) I cant believe youre gonna have sex on
my engagement night!!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Well, somebody should. (Monica glares at him.)</p>
<p>[Cut to Rachels bedroom.]</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Look uh, if were gonna do this…</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Were not gonna do this, all right? Shes just gonna think
that were doin it.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oh, I see, so everybody wins. </p>
<p>(Theres a knock on the door.)</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Who is it?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (outside the door) Its Monica, open up!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay well Ross! Stop it please! Wait a minute! (Motions for him to
follow her lead, but he angrily shakes his head no. So she pokes him.)</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oww!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah, you like that baby? (Monica bursts in followed by Chandler.) May
we help you?</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I just wanted to say that I hope you do have sex tonight and I hope that
you guys get back together, but I must warn you, the night that you announce your
engagement Im going to announce that Im pregnant!</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> How is that ever going to happen?!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> All right Monica, do you want to know why I was with Ross tonight?!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> I know why!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No you <b>dont</b> know why!</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay! Why?!</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Because! Because I was sad.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> What do you mean?</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Look, I am so…so happy for you guys, but you getting married just
reminds me of the fact that Im not. Im not even close. And I dont know,
maybe I just wanted to make myself feel better. And I know that thats dumb, but oh
my God you were so depressed when Ross got married that you slept with Chandler!</p>
<p>(Ross looks at Chandler.)</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> (To Ross) I dont care, she slept with me.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Anyway sweetie, I am, Im <b>so</b> sorry I ruined your night.</p>
<p><b>Monica:</b> (starting to cry) Im sorry I almost made you sleep with Ross.
(They hug.)</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (deadpan) Well, Im going to take off. (To Chandler) Congratulations
man.</p>
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Thanks.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> (at the door) And uh, Rachel.</p>
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah.</p>
<p><b>Ross:</b> What can I say, you missed your chance. From now on the only person
whos going to enjoy these bad boys (holds up his hands) is me. (Quickly realizes
what he said and exits disgustedly.) </p>
