‘The One Where Underdog Gets Away’
Season 1, Episode 9 - Aired November 17, 1994
Monica's nerves are tested when her plans for a quiet Thanksgiving dinner are expanded to include Phoebe, Joey and Rachel. Meanwhile, Joey is proud to be the face of a new health advertising campaign, until he discovers the embrassing condition he's highlighting. When Ross learns Susan is talking to his unborn child, he is determined to do the same despite thinking the idea is stupid.
Quote from Joey
Monica: Does anybody wanna split this?
Joey: I will.
Phoebe: Okay, you guys have to make a wish.
Monica: Make a wish?
Phoebe: Come on, you know, Thanksgiving. You got the bigger half! What did you wish for?
Joey: The bigger half.
Quote from Susan
Ross: Wow, you guys sure have a lot of books about being a lesbian.
Susan: Well, you know, you have to take a course. Otherwise they don't let you do it.
Quote from Chandler
Chandler: Do you know which one you're going to be?
Joey: No, but I hear Lyme disease is open, so you know [crosses his fingers].
Chandler: Good luck, man. I hope you get it.
Quote from Rachel
Monica: Rach, are you still gonna make it to Vail?
Rachel: Absolutely. Shoop, shoop, shoop. Only $102 to go.
Chandler: I thought it was $98.50?
Rachel: Yeah, well, it was, but I broke a cup.
Quote from Susan
Ross: You're not serious. I mean, you really talk to it?
Susan: Yeah, all the time. I want the baby to know my voice.
Ross: Do you talk about me?
Susan: Yeah, yeah. All the time.
Ross: Really?
Susan: But, we just refer to you as "Bobo the Sperm Guy."
Quote from Chandler
Rachel: Wait, wait, Chandler, this is what you're having for Thanksgiving dinner? What is it with you and this holiday?
Chandler: I'm 9 years old.
Ross: Ugh, I hate this story!
Chandler: We've just finished this magnificent Thanksgiving dinner. I have - and I remember this vividly - a mouthful of pumpkin pie. And this is the moment my parents decide to tell me they're getting divorced.
Rachel: Oh, my God!
Chandler: Yes, yes. Very difficult to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner once you've seen it in reverse.
Quote from Chandler
Joey: Set another place for Thanksgiving. My entire family thinks I have VD.
Chandler: Tonight on a very special Blossom.
Quote from Joey
Joey: Hey, Monica, I got a question. I don't see any tator tots.
Monica: That's not a question.
Joey: My mom always makes them. It's like a tradition. You get a piece of turkey on your fork, a little cranberry sauce and a tot! I mean, it's bad enough I can't be with my family because of my disease.
Quote from Phoebe
Joey: So I guess you all saw it.
Phoebe: What? Saw what? No, we're just laughing. You know how laughter can be infectious.
Quote from Rachel
Rachel: Why do you guys have so many keys in there anyway?
Chandler: For an emergency just like this.
Rachel: All right. Listen, smirky! If it wasn't for your stupid balloon, I'd be on a plane watching a woman do this [gestures like a flight attendant pointing out the emergency exits] right now. But l'm not!
