Joey: Hey!!! We are so in luck! Treeger said that we could have all this cool stuff from the basement. Wait right there.

CHANDLER: Wow! Really?! We get all this rusty crap for free?!

JOEY: Uh-huh. This and a bunch of bubble wrap. And, some of it is not even popped!


MRS. GELLER: What's this? Blue nail polish?

MONICA: Yeah, I thought it was cute.

MRS. GELLER: Ahh, that's what your Grandmother's hands looked like when we found her.


THE SALESMAN: Good afternoon, are you the decision maker of the house?

JOEY: Uhhhh.

THE SALESMAN: Do you ah, currently own a set of encyclopedias?

JOEY: No! No. But ah, try the classifieds, people sell everything in there.

THE SALESMAN: Actually, I'm not buying. I'm selling. Let me ask you one question. Do your friends ever have a conversation and you just nod along even though you're not really sure what they're talking about?


MONICA: Then why are you laughing?

MRS. GELLER: It's nothing, it's just that now your Father owes me five dollars.

MONICA: What? You bet I'd lose a nail?

MRS. GELLER: Oh no, don't be silly. I just bet I'd need these.

MONICA: Frozen lasagnas?

MRS. GELLER: Um-hmm.

MONICA: You bet that I'd screw up?! So all that stuff about hiring me because I was good was.

MRS. GELLER: No-no-no, that was all true. This was just in case you pulled a Monica.

MONICA: You promised Dr. Weinburg, you'd never use that phrase.

MRS. GELLER: Oh honey, come on, have a sense of humour, you've never been able to laugh at yourself.

MONICA: That's right. My Mom doesn't have any faith in me! Oh, that's hilarious! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

PHOEBE: I don't get it.

MRS. GELLER: No, I have faith.

MONICA: No! You have lasagnas!

Oven: Ding!

PHOEBE: The ruined quiches are ready.


RACHEL: What?!

CHANDLER: Rachel, could I see you for a moment?

CHANDLER: Okay, here's the situation. The keys to the cuffs are on the back of the door. Could you be a doll and grab them and scoot on over and unlock me? And on a totally different subject, that is a lovely pantsuit.

RACHEL: You promised you would break up with her!

CHANDLER: I did break up with her! She just took it really, really well!

RACHEL: And the fact that you were jeopardising my career never entered your mind?!

CHANDLER: It did enter my mind! But then something happened that made it, shoot right out.

RACHEL: Y'know what Chandler, you got yourself into those cuffs, you get yourself out of them.

CHANDLER: No-no-no-no-no-no-no!! I can't get myself right out of them! You must have me confused with the Amazing Chandler!!! Come on, you have to unlock me, she could be gone for hours, and I'm cold, and...

RACHEL: Oh, Chandler!!! All right, this is it! You never see Joanna again!

CHANDLER: Never!

RACHEL: You never come into this office again!

CHANDLER: Fine!

RACHEL: You give me back my Walkman!

CHANDLER: I never borrowed your Walkman.

RACHEL: Well, then I lost it. You buy me one!


CHANDLER: You got it! Here we go! Come on! This is great! Ahhh!

RACHEL: Does it hurt?

CHANDLER: No, I just always see guys doing this when they get handcuffs taken off them.


THE SALESMAN: So, here's somebody interesting, Joey. What do you know about Van Gogh?

JOEY: He cut off his ear.

THE SALESMAN: And?

JOEY: I'm out.

THE SALESMAN: He painted that.

JOEY: Wow! That's pretty nice. I thought he cut off his ear 'cause he sucked. What else you got in there?


THE SALESMAN: Let's see, ahhh Where does the Pope live?

JOEY: In the woods. No wait-wait, that's the joke answer.

THE SALESMAN: Actually its, Vatican City. Now ahh, what do you know about vulcanised rubber?

JOEY: Spock's birth control.

THE SALESMAN: You need these books.


RACHEL: Chandler! Chandler, please, I have to get you locked up back the way you were, I am sooo gonna lose my job, she's very private about her office. Now I know why.

CHANDLER: Hey, look, you're in trouble either way! Okay? If she comes back and sees me locked to this instead of the chair, she's gonna know you were in here. So you might as well just let me go.

RACHEL: What if I clean your bathroom for a month?

CHANDLER: It still wouldn't be clean. All I want is my freedom.

RACHEL: Foot rubs for a month!

CHANDLER: Freedom!

RACHEL: I'll take all of your photos and put them into photo albums!

CHANDLER: Freedom! I want my freedom! Why won't you hear me?!


THE SALESMAN: So, what do you say, Joey? You get the whole set of encyclopedias for twelve hundred dollars, which works out to just 50 bucks a book!

JOEY: Twelve hundred dollars? You think I have $1200? I'm home in the middle of the day, and I got patio furniture in my living room. I guess there's a few things you don't get from book learnin'.

THE SALESMAN: Well ah, what can you swing?

JOEY: How about zero down and zero a month for a long, long time?

THE SALESMAN: You don't have, anything?

JOEY: You wanna see what I got? Okay? I've got a baby Tootsie Roll, a movie stub, keys, a Kleenex, a rock, and an army man. Hey!

THE SALESMAN: Okay, I-I get the picture. Uh, thanks, for your time.

JOEY: And a 50. Huh, these must be Chandler's pants.

THE SALESMAN: For 50 bucks, you can get one book! What will it be? A? B? C?

JOEY: Oh, I-I think I'm gonna stick with the V, I wanna see how this bad boy turns out.


RACHEL: I ah, will buy and wrap all of your Christmas gifts.

CHANDLER: No!

RACHEL: I ah Oh! I'll squeeze you fresh orange juice every morning!

CHANDLER: With extra pulp?

RACHEL: Yeah!!

CHANDLER: No!

RACHEL: D'oh!! I've got it!

CHANDLER: You don't have it.

RACHEL: I have so got it. There's gonna be rumours about this, there's no way to stop it. Sophie knows, Monica and Phoebe know.

CHANDLER: How do Monica and Phoebe know?

RACHEL: Oh, I called them. And when they ask me what I saw, I can be very generous or very stingy.

CHANDLER: Go on.

RACHEL: I can make you a legend. I can make you this generation's Milton Berle.

CHANDLER: And Milton Berle has a

RACHEL: Ohh, not compared to you.


MONICA: Well?

PHOEBE: They're not even touching the lasagna!

MONICA: Really?!

PHOEBE: Oh, they love your casserole.

MONICA: Yes!!!

PHOEBE: It's hard to believe that just a little while ago this was nothing but ingredients.

MRS. GELLER: Well, everyone seems to be enjoying your dish.

MONICA: And you?

MRS. GELLER: I thought it was quite tasty.

MONICA: So if everyone liked it, and you liked it, that would make this a success. Which would make you...

MRS. GELLER: A bitch?

MONICA: Well, I was going for wrong, but we can use your word.


RACHEL: So did you break up with Joanna?

CHANDLER: I think so.

JOEY: Well, it's good thing you got out when you did, before she blew up like that Vesuvius.

ROSS: The volcano?

JOEY: Yeah. And speaking of volcanoes, man are they a violent igneous rock formation.

RACHEL: What?!

JOEY: Oh yeah, lava spewing, hot ash, of course some are dormant.

MONICA: Why are you talking about volcanoes all of the sudden?

JOEY: Well, we can talk about something else. What do you want to talk about? Vivisection? The Vasdeferens? The Vietnam War?

MONICA: Oh! Did anybody see that-that documentary on the Korean War?
