Quote from Ross

Ross: Hey, you know that smell gas has?
Caitlin: Yeah.
Ross: They put that in.
Caitlin: What?
Ross: The gas is odorless. But they add the smell so you know when there's a leak.
Caitlin: Well, okay.
Ross: A lot of other gas smells.
Chandler: Oh, the humanity.
Ross: Methane smells.
Caitlin: You know what? Actually, I really should go.
Ross: But I haven't paid you yet.
Caitlin: You know what, that's okay. You guys have ordered so many that this one's on me.
Ross: Was I talking to her about gas?
Chandler: More so than anything else.
Phoebe: I found it interesting.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: But you know, I never had anything to worry about. Ross was never really good at the flirting thing.
Ross: What- What- What are you talking about? It worked with you.
Rachel: Oh. No, you're right. We met, you flirted and then bam! Nine years later, you had me.

Quote from Ross

Caitlin: One vegetarian pizza. It's 12.50.
Ross: Uh, by the way, if it makes you feel any better, I happen to like eight-year-old boys.
Caitlin: What?
Ross: I mean. No, no- Your hair. Before. Your hair. You said you thought your hair looked like an 8-year-old boy's and I'm just saying I like it. The hair.
Caitlin: Oh. Thanks.
Ross: You understand, I don't actually like 8-year-old boys.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: Monica and I are celebrating our 10-month anniversary. Got reservations at Jean-George.
Ross: Wow. How'd you get in there?
Chandler: Well, made a few calls, pulled some strings ... and they agreed to seat us at 11:30 if we both have chicken and didn't get dessert.

Quote from Chandler

Caitlin: Where's the chicken?
Chandler: It's in the back. The duck pissed him off. He said that eggs came first.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Ross, we broke up two years ago. You've been married since then. I think it's okay that we see other people.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: I know it's in the apartment, but I definitely lost it.
Phoebe: What am I going to tell Monica? She wants to wear them tonight.
Rachel: Tell her to wear her own earrings.
Phoebe: These are her earrings.
Rachel: No. No. You lent Monica's earrings? I'm not allowed to borrow her stuff.
Phoebe: Why not?
Rachel: Because I lose her stuff!

Quote from Joey

Chandler: You flirt with guys all the time?
Monica: It doesn't mean anything. Just like it doesn't mean anything with you.
Chandler: Yeah, but there's a difference. You are a lot hotter than I am.
Joey: True story.

Quote from Ross

Ross: You know what I'm going to do? I am going to order another pizza. And when Caitlin gets here I will show you how well I flirt. I will get her phone number.
Chandler: Well-
Ross: And not the one on the menu.
