| TOW The Joke |
| "Ah...remember the days when you used to go out to the barn, lift up your shirt, and bend over?"-Phoebe Chandler: Hey, Joey, Playboy printed my joke! Ross: What? No, no, it's mine! It's my joke! You can call them, they'll tell you! Chandler: It's my joke. Ross: It's my joke. Joey: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Jokes? You guys know they have naked chicks in there. Monica: All right, I've heard enough. I've made my decision. [Ross and Chandler are eager to hear the decision] Monica: You are both idiots! The joke is not funny, and it is offensive to women, and doctors, and monkeys! You shouldn't be arguing over who gets credit, you should be arguing over who gets blamed for inflicting this horrible joke upon the world! Now let it go! The joke sucks! [she leaves the room] Ross: It's your joke. Chandler: Is not. "In the case of this woman, she has lost her clothes, so she rides naked on the horse, she's crying out where are they? Where are they?"-Rachel "You're not easy-going, but you're passionate, and that's good. And when you get upset about the little things, I think I'm pretty good about making you feel better about that. And that's good too. So, they can say that you're high maintenance, but it's okay, because I like....maintaining you"-Chandler Monica: [visibly upset] She picked Rachel. I mean, she tried to back out of it, but it was obvious. She picked Rachel. Chandler: [visibly upset] He took my joke, he took it. Monica: It's wrong. You know what else is wrong? Phoebe picking Rachel. Chandler: You know who else picked Rachel? Ross, and you know what else Ross did? He stole my joke. You know what? I'm going to get a joke journal. Y'know? And document the date and time of every single one of my jokes. Monica: That's a good idea. Chandler: Yeah! Monica: Do you know what's a bad idea? Chandler: Picking Rachel. Monica: That's right. Rachel: Finally, I have someone I can pass on my wisdom to. Let me tell you about a couple of things I learned while working at the coffee house. First of all, the customer is always right. A smile goes a long way. And if anyone is ever rude to you, Sneeze Muffin. Joey: Thanks Rach. Look, you guys are terrific. You know? Now, how about clearing out of here so I can get some new customers. It's all about turnover. Ross: Joey, seriously, can I get my coffee? Joey: Oh, I'm sorry, Ross. I'll get it for you know. And since I made you wait, I'll toss in a free muffin. Monica: So, maybe I am a little high maintenance. And maybe Rachel is a little bit of a pushover. But you know what we decided you are? Rachel: Yes, we are very sorry to tell you this, but you, Phoebe, are flaky. Monica: Hah! Phoebe: That's true, I am flaky. Rachel: So, what, you're just...you're just okay with being flaky? Phoebe: Yeah, totally. Monica: Well, then I'm okay with being high maintenance. Rachel: Yeah, and I am okay with being a pushover. Phoebe: That's great.Good for you guys. Monica: I am not high maintenance! Rachel: I am not a pushover! Phoebe: Who said you were? Monica & Rachel: You did! Phoebe: Oh, I'm flaky. I'll say anything. |
