because I'm here. Kathy didn't cheat on

all of you.

leave Chander alone. I mean, it's only

been two days since you broke up with

Kathy. Maybe you can go fishing next

week. Look, there's nothing I can do for

him right now. He's still in his

sweatpants. That's only phase one.

I'll be back for phase two. I would

never miss phase two. [laughter]

>> What's phase two?

>> Getting drunk and going to a strip club.

>> How does going to a strip club make him

better?

picturing yourself with other women.

what to do anymore.

much he means to him.

>> By being in a box.

>> Joey had reasons.

They were three-fold.

>> Oh, well, uh,

you not being able to talk might

actually make this easier. Listen. Um,

listen.

I don't want to be someone who comes

between two best friends.

I just I can't stand seeing what this is

doing to you guys, and I don't want to

be the cause of that. So,

I don't think we can see each other

anymore.

I'm going to go to my mom's in Chicago.

I'm going to stay there for a while.

I think this could have been something

really amazing.

But, you know, this is probably for the

best.

You know,

I'm going to miss you.

Goodbye, Chandler.

[laughter]

Open the box.

Oh my god. I'm so sorry.

>> Joey, are you okay?

>> [laughter]

>> Soldier down.

>> Hi.

>> Hey. Listen, can I ask you a question?

When you and Monica first hooked up, was

it weird going from friends to more than

that?

>> Kind of. You know, sneaking around,

having to hide from you guys.

>> No, no, no, no. I mean, sexually.

>> Yeah. Was there a part of you that that

felt like it was really wrong?

>> Actually, no. No, it felt right. You

know, it felt like uh I can't believe we

haven't been doing this the whole time.

I can tell from your expressions that's

the good news you were hoping for.

Well, I'm going to go continue to spread

the joy.

>> [laughter]

>> Well, just because it happened that way

for them doesn't mean it has to happen

that way for us.

>> Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, just

because something's difficult doesn't

mean that you quit,

>> right? Totally.

>> Yeah. So, we just keep trying and trying

until we do it.

>> Yeah. And if it doesn't work, then we'll

just be one of those couples that never

has sex.

>> That's a plan.

[laughter]

I did not see this coming.

>> I know.

>> I don't I don't get it. I mean, I was so

sure this is what I wanted. Mhm.

>> Me, too.

Well, how come Monica and Chandler could

do it?

>> I guess they weren't as good friends as

we are.

>> Oh,

I bet you're right.

So

>> yeah.

>> I love you.

>> Love you, too.

>> All right, I'm going to bed.

>> Yeah, me too.

>> Yeah, I'm not going anywhere for a

while. [laughter]

At 4:30 a.m.,

the United States garrison in Fort Sar

was fired upon. It is now under.

>> Hey, Dad. What are you doing here?

>> Well, it's your mother's bridge night,

so I thought I'd come into the city for

a little Mona cuddle.

>> [laughter]

>> Since when did you start smoking cigars?

>> I don't. I just I just like the smell of

them.

>> So, uh, what are you really doing here,

Dad?

>> Well, I just wanted to make sure that

you're okay.

>> What makes you think that I might not be

okay?

>> I saw Richard.

>> Oh.

>> So, how you doing?

>> I'm fine. Just a little tired, but I'm

okay.

[clears throat] How's Richard doing?

>> You don't want to know.

>> No, I I really really do.

>> Well, he's doing terrible.

>> Really?

>> Worse than when he broke up with

Barbara.

>> You're not just saying that, are you?

>> No. The man is a mess. [laughter]

>> Was he crying?

>> No.

Well, do you think he was waiting till

after you left so we could cry?

>> Maybe.

>> I think so.

>> Honey, relationships are hard. Like with

your mom and me. You know, after we

graduated from college, we broke up for

a while. It seems her father, your

grandfather, wanted her to travel around

Europe like he did. Of course, he got to

do it on Uncle Sam's nickel because he

was also strafing German troop trains at

the time.

However, [laughter]

>> what is wrong now?

This isn't what I ordered, man. Can't

anything go right in my life?

First, my marriage falls apart, and then

I

>> I know. I know. And then you lose your

apartment, and then you lose your job,

and then your ex-wife gets married so

fast, and now the coffee. Ah,

>> of course, we need to talk.

>> Okay. Sometimes I feel

>> No, no, no, no, no.

I'm going to talk.

I believe that the sun has set on our

day in the sun.

>> What?

>> You're a very sweet person, Ross.

Um, [laughter]

unfortunately, I just don't think I can

take another second of you whining.

Let me make sure I'm hearing this right.

You

You're ending this with me because

I'm too whiny.

>> So, you're saying I've become so whiny

that I

annoy you,

Janice.

>> Well, yeah. Oh my god.

>> Are you gonna be okay?

>> I am now.

>> Are you gonna dump Jason?

>> Well, yeah, because I have to break up

with someone and Okay, so Jason is

sensitive, but now so's Vince. Plus,

Vince has the body, you know, so

it's really just about the math.

Jason.

>> Yeah. Come on in.

[applause and cheering]

>> Oh, Phoebe, you uh sounded kind of

serious on the phone. Is uh is anything

wrong?

>> Nuh-uh. [laughter]

>> Hey,

Emily's cousin kicked me out.

>> What?

>> Why? Well, when you're subletending an

apartment from your wife's cousin and

then you get a divorce, sometimes the

cousin suddenly wants his apartment

back.

>> How can you do that? Didn't you sign a

lease?

>> Who needs a lease when it's family?

>> Hey, you can stay with us. We'll take

care of it.

>> Absolutely. Anything you need, man. But

you have to promise me you will let us

know the second you are feeling better

so that we can make fun of your hair.

[laughter]

>> You got it.

>> Okay.

>> Thanks you guys. I really appreciate

this. All right. All right. Well, I'm

going to get packing again. Man, I've

been moving around so much lately. I'm

beginning to feel like a nomad.

[laughter]

>> What?

>> He thought you said go, Ned. [laughter]

>> Us living together. You're not expecting

a proposal, right?

>> Oh, no. No, not at all.

>> We're just moving in right now. We'll

see where it goes.

>> Yeah. Well, uh, that's the thing. For

me, it's as far as it can ever go.

What do you mean?

>> Look, Phoebe, I I love you very much,

but I never want to get married again.

>> Oh,

wow.

>> Now, it's just my first marriage was,

you know, such a disaster that I kind of

lost faith in the whole idea.

>> Mhm. Was it really that bad?

>> At one point near the end, she

deliberately defecated.

>> Okay. Well, that's bad. Yeah. [laughter]

But don't you think it might be

different with someone else? Perhaps a

blonde who always uses a toilet.

[laughter]

>> Except for once in the ocean. [laughter]

>> Look, it's it's not about who I would

marry. I was certain the first time I

got married it would last forever. And I

was totally wrong.

>> But it just

>> Look, Phoebe, it's it's not about you. I

just never want to get married again.

>> I'm sorry.

Are you okay with that? Because if not,

maybe us moving in together isn't the

best idea.

>> No. Oh, I definitely don't want to get

married. Now, I just wanted to make sure

you didn't want to, too.

>> Cuz you know, when we if we move in and

you start changing your mind, there's

going to be hell to pay, mister.

>> Yeah.

>> Trust me, I will never

>> Yeah, I get that. Yeah.

>> Hey, Feb. You know, I'm I'm really glad

you came to talk to me the other day,

and I I hope I was a little helpful.

>> Oh, yeah. You were helpful. Yeah. No,

thank you.

>> Good. Good. Yeah, because the more I

thought about it, the more I realized

I don't think marriage is necessarily

the right path for you.

>> What do you mean?

>> Well, I know the other day in the coffee

house, you were all caught up in the

whole soccer mom thing, but is that

really you? I mean, can you honestly

picture yourself in a Volvo?

>> They are awfully boxy.

I mean, I don't know. You'd be so bored

with marriage. I mean, it's so normal.

>> Uh-huh.

>> Yeah.

>> Hey. Hey, can can I help?

>> Well, we uh climbed up four flights of

stairs, maneuvered a narrow hallway,

dodged a rabid pitbull. But these last

three feet are where it gets really

tricky.

>> You know, sometimes your words, they

hurt. [laughter]

Hey. Uh, where do you guys want this?

>> Yeah, seriously. Cuz this is really

heavy. I mean, not for me because I'm

only pretending to hold it, but for

these guys.

[laughter]

>> Just one one last time. Um, the marriage

thing. There's no wiggle room. None at

all.

>> No, but you don't want to get married

either, right?

>> Right. Except that I do want to get

married.

>> Couldn't have had this conversation down

at the truck, huh?

>> [laughter]

>> Well, you want to get married

>> someday.

>> And hernia.

>> I haven't exactly had a normal life and

and I never really felt like I was

missing out on anything, but it just it

feels like now it's my turn to have some

of the regular stuff.

>> If you wanted to get married, why didn't

you say something before?

>> Because I just didn't know how much I

wanted it and I and I love you and I

wanted to live with you.

>> Yeah. Well, I want to live with you,

too. I mean, let's do that.

>> But I don't I don't think I can. It was

It was okay to move in when I didn't

know what was going to happen, but I I

can't move in knowing nothing is ever

going to happen.

>> Can you at least try living together? I

mean, you might you might change your

mind about marriage.

[snorts]

>> Are you going to change yours?

>> No.

>> Me neither.

Um,

I think I need to be with someone who

wants what I want.

>> But I don't want this to end.

>> No, I don't want it to end either.

>> I can't believe this is going to end.

I guess I'll have my stuff picked up.

>> Yeah. Okay.

Okay. So, uh,

>> goodbye.

>> Take it easy, Mike.

>> Good luck.

>> Well, I'm going to put my sweats back

on.

>> Oh, no. Wait, wait. Okay, you know what?

You were right. You were right. We

really weren't great at being guys. But

do you know why? Because we're girls.

[laughter]

>> Yeah.

>> Okay. Do you know what girls are really

good at?

>> Stripping.

>> No. Listening. Sit.

You know, maybe just It would really

really help if you would just talk.

Yeah. Come on. What's going on in there?

>> Yeah. And you know, if you want to cry,

that's okay, too.

>> Okay, look. I'm gonna have to ask you

all to leave.

>> Come on, Chandler. No,

>> look. Come on. Forget it. We tried, but

phase three is a lost cause. Okay, those

strippers were insanely hot, and I

couldn't picture myself with any of

them.

>> They really were pretty, weren't they?

>> You know, I really like that fighter

pilot one.

>> Oh, Candy. Oh, she was so spunky.

>> Yeah,

you know, I think if I were going to be

with a woman,

[laughter]

>> it it'd be with someone like Michelle.

She was She was just so petite.

[laughter]

>> See, I don't know. For me, it would have

to be Shantel.

>> Oh, Shantel.

>> You know, oh my god, this [laughter]

>> She had the smoothest skin. I mean, when

I stuck that dollar bill in her g-string

and grazed her thigh,

I just achieved phase three.

>> Really?

>> I am totally picturing you with all

those women. [laughter]

>> That's That's not phase three.

>> Well, I'm there, too. [laughter]

>> Well, aren't we all together like in a

group?

>> Stop it. They're killing me.

>> I think I just MOVED ON STAGE FOUR.

>> WHAT IS THAT? WHAT IS THAT?

>> WHERE I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A

RELATIONSHIP EVER. I JUST WANT TO HAVE

SEX WITH STRIPPERS AND MY FRIENDS.

>> Here's the thing, Janice. You know, I

mean, it's like we're different, you I'm

like the bing bing bing. You're like THE

BOOM BOOM BOOM. OH MY GOD. I'm so sorry.

>> This is the worst breakup in the history

of the world.

>> Oh my god.

>> Okay. How many of those have you had?

>> Oh, I don't know. A million.

>> Chandler. Easy. Easy. Go to your happy

place.

>> I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine. All right.

>> I'm not fine. Here she comes. She's just

wait here. Okay. Breathe.

[laughter]

>> How do you do that?

>> It's like a gift. [laughter]

Key Grammar Structures

• You don't have to stop having fun just because I'm here.

  ➔ Modal verb 'have to' expressing obligation, followed by the infinitive. Use of 'just because' as a conjunction introducing a reason.

  ➔ The sentence uses the structure "don't have to" to indicate a lack of obligation. The phrase "just because I'm here" provides the reason why they don't need to stop having fun. The word **'have to'** is key here.

• Ross, do you realize this is the first time in my life I'm doing something I actually care about?

  ➔ Indirect question structure ('do you realize'), use of the present continuous ('I'm doing') to emphasize an action happening now, and the adverb 'actually' to highlight sincerity.

  ➔ This sentence demonstrates a complex sentence structure with an embedded question. The phrase **'I'm doing'** emphasizes the ongoing nature of the activity, and **'actually'** adds emotional weight.

• Well, neither do I.

  ➔ Use of 'neither' as a coordinating conjunction to indicate agreement with a negative statement. Ellipsis of the verb 'do'.

  ➔ This is a concise way of expressing agreement with a previous negative statement. The **'do'** is implied from the previous sentence. It's a common conversational shortcut.
