<p>[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, everyone has just finished Thanksgiving dinner and are
|
||
groaning over their fullness.]</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh Monica that was the <b>best</b> Thanksgiving dinner ever! I think you
|
||
killed us.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> I couldn't possibly eat another bite. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I need something sweet.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Does anyone wanna watch TV?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>All:</b> Yeah, sure.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(She starts pushing the power button on the remote, but it's not facing the TV so it
|
||
doesn't work.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Monica your remote doesn't work.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Phoebe, you have to lift it and point.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh. Aw, forget it.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah, you know what we should all do? We should play that game where
|
||
everyone says one thing that they're thankful for.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Ooh-ooh, I! I am thankful for this beautiful fall we've been having.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> That's very nice.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> That's sweet, Joey.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Yeah, the other day I was at the bus-stop and this lovely fall breeze came
|
||
in out of nowhere and blew this chick's skirt right up. Oh! Which reminds me, I'm also
|
||
thankful for thongs. (Note: Actually, I think <b>every</b> guy is thankful for thongs.
|
||
That and spandex. <font face="Wingdings">J</font> )</p>

<p>[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, continued from earlier. Joey is talking about the wonder
|
||
that is the thong.]</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I mean, it's not so much an underpant as it is a feat of engineering. I
|
||
mean, it's amazing how much they can do with so little material! And the way they play
|
||
with your mind! Is it there? Is it not there?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Are you aware that you're still talking?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Is anyone thankful for anything else besides a thong?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Huh, I don't know what to pick. Am I more thankful for my divorce or my
|
||
eviction? Hmm.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Wow! See, and I didn't think you'd be able to come up with anything.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> I'm sorry. It's just that this is the worse Thanksgiving ever.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> No-no-no! <b>I</b> am the king of bad Thanksgivings. You can't just
|
||
swoop in here with your bad marriage and take that away from me.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh, you're not gonna tell the whole story about how your parents got
|
||
divorced again are you?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oh God, no.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Oh, come on! I wanna hear it! It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without Chandler
|
||
bumming us out!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> It's a tradition, like the parade. If the parade decided it was gay,
|
||
moved out, and abandoned its entire family.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(And with that, we start a series of flashbacks to Thanksgiving's of years gone by.)</p>

<p>[Scene: The Bing household, Mr. and Mrs. Bing and Young Chandler are eating

Thanksgiving dinner as a housekeeper serves them.]</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Mrs. Bing:</b> Now Chandler dear, just because your father and I are getting a
|
||
divorce it doesn't mean we don't love you. It just means he would rather sleep with the
|
||
house-boy than me.</p>
|
||
|

<p><b>The Housekeeper:</b> More turkey Mr. Chandler? (And he makes eyes at him.)</p>

<p><b>Ross:</b> You're right. Yours is worse. You are the king of bad Thanksgivings.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> I don't know about that. I've got one that's worse.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Really? Worse than, "More turkey Mr. Chandler?"</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh, did the little rich boy have a problem with the butler? Yes, mine's
|
||
worse!</p>

<p>[Scene: A Union battlefield hospital, Phoebe, in a past life, is tending to a wounded

Union soldier. (By the way, for historical perspective, 1862 was the second year of the

American Civil War.)]</p>

</b><p><b>Past Life Phoebe:</b> More bandages! More bandages! Please, can I get some more
|
||
bandages in here! This man is dying<6E>(She is cut off by an exploding shell just
|
||
outside the tent. When the smoke clears, she's missing an arm and the blood is pumping out
|

like you'd see in a horror movie. And upon seeing her condition, she says<79>) Oh no.</p>

<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh, this life! Oh okay no, Chandler's is worse.</p>
|

|

<p><b>Joey:</b> Man, it must be so cool remembering stuff like that! I don't have any past

|

<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Of course you don't sweetie. You're brand new.</p>

<p><b>All:</b> Oh, come on!</p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh no, I know! I know! It's the one where Joey got Monica's turkey stuck

on his head!</p>
|
||
|

<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?! Joey got a turkey stuck on his head?!</p>
|
||
|

<p><b>Joey:</b> (muffled) Hello?</p>

|

<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Joey? What's going on?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Look. (He walks out of the bathroom with his head stuck in a huge turkey.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh my God!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I know! It's stuck!!!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> (walks him to the kitchen) Easy. Step. How did it get on?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I put it on to scare Chandler!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Oh my God! Monica's gonna totally freak out!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Well then help me get it off! Plus, it smells <b>really</b> bad in here.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Well, of course it smells really bad. You have your head up a dead
|
||
animal.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(They hear Monica trying to unlock the door. So Phoebe quickly pushes his head down
|
||
onto the table to make it look like the turkey is just sitting on a platter and not stuck
|
||
on Joey's head.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> (entering) Hey!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> Hey!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Hey, did you get the turkey basted<65>Oh my God! Oh my God! (She sees
|
||
someone is stuck in the turkey.) Who is that?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> It's Joey.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> What-what are you doing? Is this supposed to be funny?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> No, it's not supposed to be funny, it's supposed to be scary.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Well, get it off now!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> I can't! It-it's stuck!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Well, I don't care! That-that turkey has to feed 20 people at my
|
||
parent's house and they're not gonna eat it off your head!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Phoebe:</b> All right, hold on! Okay, let's just all think.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(They all start thinking. Joey starts rubbing his chin, of course his chin is currently
|
||
inside the turkey so he ends up rubbing the turkey. And I didn't do that joke one bit of
|
||
justice. It's one of those you have to see it to get it jokes.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, I got it. Phoebe? All right, you pull. I'm gonna spread the legs
|
||
as wide as I can. (Joey starts giggling.) Joey? Now is not the time!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> Sorry! Sorry.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(They get into position to pull the turkey off.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, count to three. 1. 2. 3!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(They both pull but Joey slips out and starts to fall backwards just as Chandler
|
||
enters, scaring him.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Arghhhhhh!! (Joey turns around to taunt him, but Chandler is in the
|
||
doorway and Joey is facing the kitchen.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Joey:</b> (pointing) It worked! I scared ya, I knew it! Ha-ha!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> I'm over here big guy.</p>
|

|

<p><b>Joey:</b> (turning all the way around, and still not facing Chandler) Yeah, you are!

(Starts dancing.) I scared you!</p>

when Ross tried to say, "Butternut squash?" And it came out, "Squatternut

buash?"</p>
|

|

<p><b>Ross:</b> Yeah that's the same.</p>

|

know that happened. So which one was it?</p>
|

|

<p><b>All:</b> Which one?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Umm, I-I really don't want to tell this story.</p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Oh, come on Monica, reliving past pain and getting depressed is what
|

Thanksgiving is all about. Y'know, for me anyway. And of course, the Indians.</p>

thing is not called his tenderness. Believe me! (Walks into the living room and greets

|
||
|
||
<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> So Rachel, your mom tells me you changed your major again.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh, yeah, I had too. There was never any parking by the Psychology

building.</p>
|

|

<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> (entering) Hi Rachel.</p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Oh hi!</p>
|

|

<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> Wow, love your new nose!</p>

<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> Jack.</p>
|

<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> What? Dr. Wilson's an artist! He removed my mole cluster. Wanna see?
|

(He starts to show her as the doorbell rings.)</p>
|

|

<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> I'll get it.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> No, God! Please, let me! (Runs out.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(She opens the door to reveal Chandler and Ross. Unfortunately, they seem to have their
|

holidays mixed up. They think it's Halloween and they're going as Crockett and Tubbs from
|
||
that legendary TV show of the late 80's, <i>Miami Vice</i>. God, we looked silly back
|

then!)</p>
|

<p><b>Rachel:</b> Hey!</p>
|

|

<p><b>Ross:</b> Hey. (To his parents) Happy Thanksgiving! </p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> (To Chandler) God, your hair sure is different!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Yeah, we were just talking about that. I can't believe how stupid we
|
||
used to look. (They both quickly push their sleeves over their elbows.)</p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> So uh, where's Monica?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> She's upstairs. Monica! Come down! Everyone's here! Ross, Rachel,
|

and the boy who hates Thanksgiving.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>(Monica enters, but she forgot something. Oh, about 150 pounds. In other words, she
|

lost weight, big time!)</p>

|

|

<p><b>Chandler:</b> Oh my God!</p>
|

turns around making sure he gets a good look.)</p>

<p><b>Ross:</b> Dude!</p>
|

|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Sorry!</p>
|
||
|

<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> Yes, yes Monica is thin. It's wonderful. But what we really want to
|

hear about is Ross's new girlfriend.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Oh mom! Okay, umm, her name is Carol. And she's really pretty. And smart.
|
||
And uh, she's-she's on the lacrosse team and the golf team. Can you believe it? She plays
|
||
for both teams!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> So Chandler, I guess I'll see you at dinner.</p>
|

<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> Dude!</p>

<p><b>Chandler:</b> Sorry.</p>

<p>(In the kitchen.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> (entering) Oh-ho, my God! That was so awesome! You totally got him back
|
||
for calling you fat! He was just drooling all over you. That must've felt so great!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Well it didn't!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> What?!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yeah, I mean yeah, I look great. Yeah, I feel great and yeah, my heart
|
||
is not in trouble anymore! Blah, blah, blah! Y'know I still don't feel like I got him
|
||
back, y'know? I just want to humiliate him. I wanna, I want him to be like naked and then
|
||
I'm going to point at him and laugh!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay, <b>that</b> we may be able to do.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> How?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well guys tend to get naked before they're gonna have sex.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> What?! I mean, I didn't work this hard and-and-and lose all this weight
|
||
so that I can give my flower to someone like him!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay, first of all, if you keep calling it that, no one's gonna ever
|
||
take it. Then, second of all you're not actually gonna have sex with him! You're just
|
||
gonna make him think that you are.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Yeah.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> And when he's naked I can throw him out in the front yard and lock the
|
||
door and all the neighbors will just humiliate him!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Then, you will <b>definitely</b> get him back!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Okay, so how do I make him think I wanna have sex with him?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Okay, oh, here's what you do. Just act like everything around you turns
|
||
you on.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> What do you mean?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Well, like anything can be sexy. Like umm, oh-oh, like this dishtowel!
|
||
(She grabs it and starts rubbing it on her cheek.) Ooh, ooh, this feels sooo good against
|
||
my cheek! And-and if I feel a little hot, I can just dab myself with it. Or I can bring it
|
||
down to my side and bring it through my fingers while I talk to him.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> (excited) I can do that!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Rachel:</b> Yeah? Okay! Good, good, because he's coming. He's coming. (To Chandler)
|
||
Hey, what's up? (She leaves and closes the door behind her.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Monica, I was wondering if you can make me some of that righteous mac
|
||
and cheese like last year.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Umm, I'd love too! (She goes over and picks up the box and decides to
|
||
follow Rachel's advice and holds the box up to her cheek.) Ooh, I love macaroni and
|
||
cheese. I love-I love the way this box feels against my cheek.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Okay.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Boy, I love carrots! Oh! (She picks up a bunch of them and holds them
|
||
between her fingers.) Sometimes I like to put them between my fingers like this and-and
|
||
hold them down here while I talk to you. (She is rubbing her hip with the carrots.) Umm,
|
||
and-and-and y'know if I get really hot umm, I-I like to pick up this knife (She picks up a
|
||
knife without putting the box down. She's holding the box between her cheek and shoulder)
|
||
and-and umm, I-I put the cold steal against umm, (Pause) my body. (She doesn't have any
|
||
exposed skin within reach of the knife, so while holding the carrots in one hand and the
|
||
box between her face and shoulder, she rubs the knife on her stomach.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Chandler:</b> Are you all right?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Oh yeah, of course. I'm fine it's just that<61>(She drops the box and
|
||
in a reflex action tries to catch it with her arm, the knife slips out and slowly flips
|
||
through the air and comes point first down into Chandler's shoe.)</p>

|

<p><b>The Paramedic:</b> Twenty year old has got a severed toe on his right foot.</p>
|
||
|

<p>(They go through the doors into the trauma room, opening them by ramming the gurney
|
||
through them, only Chandler's foot is hanging off the end and he screams in pain.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Ross:</b> Can you please not do that feet first? You know where his injury is!
|
||
Severed toe, you <b>just </b>said it!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>The Doctor:</b> It says here that the knife went right through your shoe.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Mr. Geller:</b> Of course it did. They're made of wicker.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>The Doctor:</b> Did you bring the toe?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Monica:</b> Oh yes! I have it right here, on ice! (She takes a bag of ice out of her
|
||
purse and hands it to the doctor.)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>The Doctor:</b> (opening it) Don't worry son, we'll just attach it and<6E>(Stops

suddenly.)</p>

|

<p><b>The Doctor:</b> You brought a carrot.</p>
|

<p><b>Chandler:</b> What?</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>The Doctor:</b> This isn't your toe, this is a small, very cold piece of carrot.</p>
|

<p><b>Rachel:</b> You brought a carrot?!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Mrs. Geller:</b> Oh my God! There's a toe in my kitchen.</p>

<p><b>Monica:</b> God, I'm sorry! I'll go back and get it!</p>

|

<p><b>The Doctor:</b> It's too late, all we can do now is sow up the wound.</p>
