Quote from Monica
Monica: Your boyfriend has been in there for an hour. It's like I'm living with him again.
He's here when I go to sleep and wake up and when I want to shower. I feel like I'm 16 again.
Rachel: Well, you're not 16. You're both adults now.
Monica: Get out, you doofus.
Quote from Joey
Monica: But I thought you wanted to live by yourself.
Joey: I did. I thought it'd be great. I figured I'd have, like, time alone with my thoughts. But, you know, it turns out I don't have as many thoughts as you think.
Quote from Phoebe
Record Producer: From the top.
Phoebe: playing guitar and singing] Smelly cat, smelly cat What are they feeding you? - Okay, sorry. I'm just not getting that everyone gets how smelly this cat actually is. Maybe if we could talk about this because I need to feel that you really care about the cat.
Record Producer: Honey, we can talk about this. It's just that this is costing like $100 a minute to be in here.
Phoebe: So the cat stinks, but you love it. Let's go.
Quote from Rachel
Ross: Monica keeps changing the channel.
Monica: Oh, that's great. Why don't you tell Mommy on me?
Rachel: Now I'm Mommy in this little play? Look, I refuse to get sucked into this, like, weird little Geller dimension thing, okay? So I'm gonna go and take a nice long hot bubble bath because you kids are driving me crazy.
Quote from Phoebe
Phoebe: [playing guitar and singing] Smelly cat, smelly cat, What are they feeding you? Everybody. Smelly cat, smelly cat, It's not your fault. Monica.
Monica: They won't take you to the vet.
Phoebe: Chandler.
Chandler: ... You're obviously not their favorite pet.
Phoebe: Joey.
Joey: You may not be a bed of roses.
Phoebe: Rachel.
Rachel: And you're no friend to those with noses.
Phoebe: Ross, those are the only lines we have. Sorry. Okay, back to the chorus.
Quote from Phoebe
Record Producer: Okay, Phoebe. You ready to try one?
Phoebe: [playing guitar and singing] Smelly cat, smelly cat, What are they feeding you?
Backing Singers: Smelly, smelly, smelly, Really bad smelling smelly cat-
Phoebe: Whoa. Oh, my God. I mean, like, who was that?
Record Producer: They're your backup singers. Behind you, hon.
Phoebe: Oh, I thought they were just watching me. Like at an aquarium, you know?
Quote from Chandler
Phoebe: Oh, my God. You won't believe this. I have just been discovered.
Chandler: Wait a minute. I claimed you in the name of France four years ago.
Quote from Rachel
Rachel: Hey, nice pillow. So tell me, is this genuine Muppet skin?
Quote from Phoebe
Phoebe: Hey, excellent water, table thing.
Joey: Thanks. I love this. But you know what? It makes me want to pee.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, me too. I think that's the challenge.
Quote from Monica
Phoebe: So why don't you show us the rest of your casa?
Joey: Oh, the best part. Come on.
Rachel: Hey, nice toilet.
Joey: No, no, no. Behind it.
Ross: You have a phone in here?
Joey: That's right. I have a phone. In here.
Monica: Joey, promise me something. Never call me from that phone.
