‘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 Monica
Phoebe: Okay, all done.
Monica: Phoebe, did you whip the potatoes? Ross needs lumps!
Phoebe: Oh, l'm sorry! I just I thought we could have them whipped and then add some peas and onions.
Monica: Why would we do that?
Phoebe: Because then they'd be just like my mom used to make it, before she died.
Monica: Okay. Three kinds of potatoes coming up.
Quote from Phoebe
Chandler: It's all over the news. Right before he reached Macy's he broke free and was spotted flying over Washington Square Park. I'm going to the roof. Who's with me?
Rachel: I can't! I gotta go.
Chandler: Come on, an 80-foot inflatable dog loose over the city? How often does that happen?
Phoebe: Almost never.
Quote from Ross
Ross: Okay. Where am I talking to here? There is one way that seems to offer a certain acoustical advantage, but.
Carol: Just aim for the bump.
Quote from Ross
Ross: You know, I can't do this. This is- It's too weird. I feel stupid.
Carol: It's fine. You don't have to do it just because Susan does it.
Ross: Hello, baby. Hello.
Quote from Joey
Joey: Wait. We have a copy of your key.
Monica: Get it!
Joey: That tone won't make me go any faster.
Monica: Joey!
Joey: That one will.
Quote from Ross
Ross: And everyone's telling me, "You gotta pick a major." So on a dare, I picked paleontology. And you have no idea what I'm saying, because, face it, you're a fetus. You're just happy you don't have gills anymore.
Quote from Ross
Carol: You don't have to talk to it. You can sing.
Ross: Please. I am not singing to your stomach, okay?
Susan: [entering the apartment] How's it going?
Ross: [singing] Here we come, Walking down the street, Get the funniest looks from, Everyone we meet, Hey, hey-
Hey, did you just feel that?
Carol: I did.
Ross: Does it always?
Carol: No, no, that was the first.
Susan: Keep singing! Keep singing!
Ross: [singing] Hey, hey, you 're my baby, And I can 't wait to meet you, When you come out I'll buy you a bagel, Then we 'll go to the zoo-
Carol: lt did it again!
Susan: I felt it that time!
Ross: [singing] Hey, hey, I'm your daddy, I'm the one without any breasts.
Quote from Chandler
[Everyone is arguing]
Monica: Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
Chandler: Now this feels like Thanksgiving.
Quote from Ross
Chandler: Shall I carve?
Rachel: By all means.
Chandler: Okay, who wants light cheese, and who wants dark cheese?
