Quote from Joey in The One with Rachel's Other Sister
Phoebe: It doesn't matter. I thought of the perfect lie for you. It's easy to remember, and it doesn't invite a lot of questions. You weren't at the parade because you had a family emergency. Joey: I like that. Yeah. I wasn't at the parade because I had a family emergency. Phoebe: Ooh. What happened? Joey: Uh, my sister's raccoon came- Phoebe: No, nothing with a raccoon.
