Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: Listen, this weekend we're all gonna go to Las Vegas to surprise Joey. Including me. Do you wanna go?

Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: So far, is this trip to Las Vegas better or worse than the trip to London?
Chandler: So far, it's pretty much the same, Pheebs.
Phoebe: Okay. What about after I give you these candies?
Chandler: Yeah. I guess it's a little better now.
Phoebe: Okay. Las Vegas, 1. London, 0.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: Can I give you your present now?
Monica: Okay.
Chandler: Oh, don't tell me I did this.
Monica: Oh, I love "l forgot the present" fake-out.
Chandler: How do you feel about the "I really did forget the present, please forgive me" not fake-out?

Quote from Phoebe

Monica: Okay, I ran into Richard yesterday and he asked me if I wanted to go for a bite and I did. And the only reason I didn't tell you is because I knew you'd get mad and I didn't wanna spoil our anniversary.
Chandler: I'm not mad.
Monica: Really?
Chandler: Oh, yeah. So you bumped into Richard. You grabbed a "bite." No big deal.
Monica: Great.
Phoebe: Okay, London, 1.

Quote from Ross

Ross: [inner monologue] Oh, my God. That's Rachel, naked. I can't look at that. I am looking at this. Okay, vivid colors, expressive brush strokes. Unless she wants me to be looking at that.
She knows I'm home. She knows I can see her. What kind of game is she playing? I think maybe someone's lonely tonight. Oh, Dr. Geller. Stop it. You're being silly. Or am I?

Quote from Ross

Ross: May I come in?
Rachel: Uh. Yeah, if you want to.
Ross: Do you want me to?
Rachel: Yeah, sure?
Ross: So do l. Okay, Rach, before anything happens I just wanna lay down a couple of ground rules. This is just about tonight. I don't want to go through with this if it'll raise the question of "us." I just want this to be about what it is.
Rachel: And what is that, Ross?
Ross: The physical act of love.
Rachel: What, are you crazy?
Ross: So you weren't trying to entice me just now with your nakedness?
Rachel: Oh, God. You saw me? Oh.
Ross: You weren't trying to entice me with your nakedness?
Rachel: No! No. You thought- You actually thought I wanted to have sex with you? Oh, wow.
Ross: No. No. No. No. No. No.

Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: Oh, man, I can totally settle down here. It's got everything I could ever want. Including Joey. Look.

Quote from Phoebe

Joey: What's going on?
Phoebe: Monica had lunch with Richard.
Joey: Dawson?
Phoebe: No, but that would've been so cool.

Quote from Joey

Joey: Guys, please. Come on, come on. This is obviously a misunderstanding.
Monica: No, it is not.
Joey: Hey, don't look at me. I just work here.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Okay, Ross? I'm a little warm, so I'm gonna be taking off my sweater. Now, I'm just letting you know this is not an invitation to the physical act of love.
