JA: I think they deserve a nice romantic weekend by themselves, away from their friends.  But it's so awkward if you think about it.  Someone's your friend and all of a sudden they're your boyfriend.  You're naked in front of them.  Aaaaa!

TVG: Once Ross and Rachel are lovers, can they ever go back to just friends?

JA: That's a tough one.  I think they love each other enough.  But that might be really hard, once you've gone to that next level, to go back to just friends.

DS: I think it would take a lot of time.  I think they have to let this part of the relationship run its course first--unless they just have a miserable time in bed together.  That's possible, but I don't think that's what the writers are going to do.

TVG:   Every couple has a special song.  What should Ross and Rachel's song be?

DS: Something by Van Morrison.  I love Van Morrison.  Something from the album Tupelo Honey.

JA: How about Baby, I Love Your Way, by Peter Frampton?  It's sweet.

TVG:  What will the first fight be about?

JA: Me being too spoiled.

DS: It will be something behavioral.  Ross probably has a certain routine that he's established.  That could be fun--suddenly his routine is thrown off.  And I want him to be more invested in what Rachel does for a living.  If you're in a relationship with a person, you want to help them realize what their dream is.  Rachel doesn't want to be a waitress the rest of her life.

TVG: That could lead to a fight where she thinks he should just accept her the way she is.

DS:  And it could be the thing that makes him realize she doesn't have any direction.  Is that enough for Ross to be with someone like that?  I don't know.

TVG:  Would David ever be attracted to someone like Rachel?

DS:  I would be attracted to her, but I need someone who has direction, who's working towards something they're really passionate about.  That's what turns me on and gets me going.

TVG:  Would Jennifer ever be attracted to someone like Ross?

JA:  Absolutely.  Schwimmer looks a lot like my high-school sweetheart.  So yeah, I'd be attracted to him.  I love that sweet puppy-dog-eyed kind of thing.
