JOEY: I don´t know. What are you wearing?
[Chandler, Monica and Phoebe looks at him]
ROSS: Phoebs, why would you want to operate a drill press?
PHOEBE: Just for some short-term-work. You know, until I get back some of my ma**age clients.
CHANDLER: Pirates again?
PHOEBE: No, nothing like that. I was just...such a dummie. I taught this "ma**age-yourself-at-home-workshop". And they are.
JOEY: Hey, hey, Chan. She could work for you.
CHANDLER: [sarcasticly] Thanks Joey, that´s a good idea.
PHOEBE: What... I could, I could do it. What is it?
CHANDLER: Well, my secretary is gonna be out for a couple of weeks. She is having one of her b**bs redused. It´s a whole big b**b story.
PHOEBE: I could be a secretary.
CHANDLER: Well, you know Phoebs. I don´t know if it´s your kinda thing, because it involves a lot of being normal. For a large portion of the day.
PHOEBE: I could do that.
[Ross´s beeper goes off]
RACHEL: What are you playing with?
ROSS: Oh, it´s my new beeper.
JOEY: What the hell does a paleontologist need a beeper for?
MONICA: Is it like for dinosaur emergencies. 'Help, come quick, they´re still extinct.'
ROSS: No, it´s for when Carol goes into labor. She can get me wherever I am. I mean, all she has to do is to dial 55-JIMBO.
CHANDLER: A cool phone number, and a possible name for the kid.
MONICA: All right, I´ll see you guys later. [raises]

[Scene: Monica and Rachel´s apartment. It´s just them there. Monica is just finishing cleaning the windows.]
MONICA: Windows are clean, candles are lit. Uh, belt's too tight; gotta change the belt. [drops belt on the couch] Did I turn the fish? [goes over to the kitchen to check on the dinner] No, cause I made lasagna. Am I out of control?
RACHEL: Just a touch. Mon, I don´t understand. I mean, you´ve been dating this guy since like, what... his midterms? I mean, why all the sudden are you so... Oh.
MONICA: What?
RACHEL: Could tonight be the Night?
MONICA: I don´t know. Look he´s a great guy and I love being with him but... you know. Things happen, and they happen. You don´t plan these things.
RACHEL: So, did you shave your legs?
MONICA: Yeah.
RACHEL: Aha!
[Scene: Central Perk. Joey and Ross are there.]

ROSS: [on phone] Yeah, you want 55-JUMBO. Yeah, that´s right. That´s right, JUMBO with a U, sir. [pause] No, belive me, you don´t want me. Judging by his number, I´d be a huge disappointment. [pause] All rightie, bye bye.
[Phoebe and Chandler enters]
JOEY: Hey, hey. How was the first day?
PHOEBE: Oh, exellent. Everyone was so, so nice.
CHANDLER: See, it pays to know the man who wears my shoes. [Joey and Ross wonder what he means] Me.
PHOEBE: No, I didn´t tell anybody that I knew you.
CHANDLER: Why not?
PHOEBE: Oh, because, you know... they don´t like you.
CHANDLER: What?
PHOEBE: I thought you knew that.
CHANDLER: Noho. Why doesn´t they like me?
PHOEBE: Everyone. Except for uh... no everyone.
CHANDLER: What are you talking about?
PHOEBE: Don´t feel bad. You know they used to like you a lot. But then you got promoted, and, you know, now you´re like "Mr. Boss Man". You know, Mr. Bing. Mr. Bing, "Boss Man Bing".
[Joey and Ross laughs]
CHANDLER: I can´t belive it.
PHOEBE: Yeah, yeah. They even do you.
CHANDLER: They do me?
PHOEBE: You know like... uh okay... uh... 'Could that report be any later?'
[Joey and Ross laughs]
CHANDLER: I don´t sound like that.
ROSS: Oh, oh Chandler...
JOEY: Oh... Yeah, you do.
ROSS: 'The hills were alive with the sound of music.'
[Phoebe, Joey and Ross laughs]
JOEY: [reaches for hi scones] My scones.
PHOEBE, JOEY & ROSS: 'My scones.'
[Phoebe, Joey and Ross laughs again]
CHANDLER: Okay, I don´t sound like that. That is so not true.
[Joey and Chandler laughs]
CHANDLER: That is so not... That is so not... That... Oh, shut up!
[Phoebe, Joey and Ross laughs]
[Scene: Monica and Rachel´s apartment. Monica and Ethan are sitting in the couch.]
MONICA: Did not.
ETHAN: I am telling you, up until I was, like nine, I thought that gunpoint was an actual place wher crimes happen.
MONICA: How was that possible?
ETHAN: Well, think about it. It´s always on the news. 'A man is being held up, at gunpoint.' 'Tourists are being terrorised, at gunpoint.' You know, I just kept thinking: why does people continue to go there? Oh, ah. I should go.
MONICA: Okay.
[They kiss]
ETHAN: Okay.
MONICA: Unless--
ETHAN: What?
MONICA: Uh, ah. Unless you wanna stay over? I mean, I´m going to, so...
ETHAN: Yeah, I´d really like that.
[They kiss]
ETHAN: Uuh, before we get into any staying-over-stuff, there is something you should know.
MONICA: Okay, is this like 'I have an early cla** tomorrow' or 'I´m secretly married to a goat'?
ETHAN: Well it´s somewhere in between. You see, in a strictly technical sense, of course, I´m not uh..., well I, I mean I haven´t ever uh...
MONICA: Ethan--
ETHAN: Yeah?
MONICA: Are you a virgin?
ETHAN: Well, if that´s what you kids are calling it these days then, yes I am. I uh, I´ve kinda been waiting for the right person.
MONICA: Really?
ETHAN: Yeah. You do know I was talking about you, right?
[They kiss]
[Time lapse. They are now in Monica´s bedroom, on the bed.]
ETHAN: Wow!
MONICA: You keep saying that.
ETHAN: You know, you read about it, you see it in the movies. Even when you practise it at home, man oh man, it is nothing like that.
[They kiss]
MONICA: Listen, uh, you told me something that was really difficult for you. And I, I-I figured if you could be honest, then I can to.
ETHAN: Oh god, don´t tell me, I did it wrong.
MONICA: No no. Nothing wrong about that.
ETHAN: Oh.
MONICA: Um, okay, here it goes. I´m not 22. I´m, I´m 25... and thirteen months.
ETHAN: Huh!
MONICA: But I figured, you know, that shouldn´t change anything. I mean, what the hell does it matter how old we are.
[They kiss]
ETHAN: Uh, listen um, as long as we´re telling stuff, uh, I have another one for you. I´m a little younger than I said.
MONICA: You´re not a senior?
ETHAN: Oh, I´m a senior... in High School.
MONICA: Ok...ay.
[Time lapse]
MONICA: What we did was wrong. Oh god, I just had s** with somebody that wasn´t alive during the Bicentennial.
ETHAN: I just had s**.
MONICA: Ethan, focus. How could you not tell me?
ETHAN: Well, you never told me how old you were.
MONICA: Well, that´s different. My lie didn´t make one of us a felon in 48 states. What were you thinking?
ETHAN: I wasn´t thinking. I was too busy fallin'--
MONICA: Don´t say it. [closes Ethan´s mouth with her hand]
ETHAN: --in love with you.
MONICA: Really?
ETHAN: [nods] Sorry.
MONICA: Well,fall out of it. You know, you shouldn´t even be here, it´s a school night. Oh god, oh god. I´m like those women that you see with shiny guys like Chad. I´m Joan Collins.
ETHAN: Who?
[Scene: Monica and Rachel´s apartment. Everyone exept Monica is there.] ROSS: [on phone] Okay, André should be there in like 45 minutes. All rightie, bye bye. [to Phoebe] Just easier that way.
CHANDLER: Oh, come on. You told me about the last dream.
RACHEL: No, forget it.
CHANDLER: Oh, why not. Was I doing anything particularly... saucy?
RACHEL: All right, fine. Um, you were not the only one there. [Camera fades to Ross, who´s listening very carefully] Joey was there too.
JOEY: All right.
ROSS: Was there...uh, huh, huh, huh... andybody, anybody else there.
RACHEL: No.
ROSS: You´re sure? Nobody uh, handed out uh, mints or anything?
RACHEL: No, it was just the three of us.
ROSS: Huh!
JOEY: So, tell me. Was it like you and Chandler, and then you and me, or you and me and Chandler?
RACHEL: He, he, he. You know what?
JOEY: What?
RACHEL: There were times when it wasn´t even me.
[Chandler and Joey laughs, until they look at each other]
PHOEBE: That is so sweet, you guys. [hugs them]

MONICA: What?
RACHEL: Ethan called again.
MONICA: Oh.
ROSS: Are you not seeing him anymore?
MONICA: No. You know, sometimes just things doesn´t work out.
CHANDLER: And this has nothing to do with the fact that he needs a note to get out of gym.
[Monica stares at Rachel]
RACHEL: I, I didn´t say any... I sw... I did not say anything, I swear.
JOEY: Listen, the next time you talk to him, can you ask him which one the strongest "Power Ranger" is?
[Ross and Chandler laughs]
ROSS: Oh, yeah.
MONICA: Ha,ha, ha, oh my life is just so amusing. Could we drop it now?
JOEY, CHANDLER & ROSS: Sorry.
ROSS: It´s morphin time!
JOEY: Stegosaurus!
CHANDLER: Tyrannosaurus!
[They all cross they´re arms like the "Power Rangers" do]
PHOEBE: Ooh, oh, I´ve gotta go. [raises] Whoa, oh, head rush. One more, and then I have to go. [sits down, and then raises again] Cool!
RACHEL: Where are you going?
PHOEBE: Um, oh, I´ve got a birthday party, with some work people.
CHANDLER: Work people? Nobody told me.
PHOEBE: No, I know. That´s a part of the whole, you know, them-not-liking-you-extravagance.
CHANDLER: You know, I don´t get this. A month aga, these people were my friends. You know, just because I´m in charge doesn´t mean i´m a different person.
PHOEBE: Well, then you should come tonight. You know, just hang out with them. Let them see what a great guy you still are.
CHANDLER: You think I should?
PHOEBE: I really do, yeah.
CHANDLER: Okay.
PHOEBE: Okay.

PHOEBE: You were great. But they still made fun of you.
CHANDLER: What?
PHOEBE: You know, now you´re more like, you know like, "Mr. Caring Boss", "Mr.", you know, "I´m one of you, Boss", "Mr., I wanna be your buddy, Boss Man Bing"
CHANDLER: Then, I don´t get it.
PHOEBE: Well, you know what Chandler? I think you´ve gotta face it. You´re like, the guy in the big office, you know. You´re the one that hires them, that fires them... They still say you´re a great boss.
CHANDLER: They do?
PHOEBE: Uh huh. But they´re not your friends anymore.
CHANDLER: I just wan´t to--
PHOEBE: No, but you can´t.
CHANDLER: But I just wa--

JOEY: What about André?
ROSS: Oh, welll this morning he got a call from who I think was our cousin Nathan, and frankly, it was a little more than I needed to know.
[Ethan enters]
ETHAN: Hey.
MONICA: That was gonna be my opener.
RACHEL: [understands that Monica and Ethan wanna be alone] Hey, did you guys check out those new handdryers in the bathroom?

Monica, this is ridiculous, we´re great together. We can talk , we make each other laugh, and the s**. Oh, man, okay i have no frame of graft, but I thought that was great.
MONICA: It was.
ETHAN: Then, what´s the problem?
MONICA: Ethan, it´s um... it´s icky.
ETHAN: Icky? You´re actually gonna throw this away because it´s icky?
MONICA: This isn´t easy for me either. I wish things were different, I... If you were a few years older, or if I was a few years younger, or if we lived in biblical times, I would really--
ETHAN: No, don´t say it. [closes Monica´s mouth with his hand]
MONICA: --love you.
[Ross, Rachel and Joey come back from the bathroom. They discover that Monica and Ethan aren´t finished talking to each other yet.]
