Quote from Monica

Monica: What are you talking about?
Rachel: Monica, I know about you and Chandler.
Monica: What?
Rachel: I overheard you on the phone the other day. You said, "I'll just tell Rachel I'm doing laundry for a couple of hours." And he said, "Laundry? Is that my new nickname?" And you said: "No, you know what your nickname is, Mr. Big."
Monica: Well, it sounds like you're writing yourself a little play there, Rach. Wow. Let me know how that one turns out.
Rachel: Well, I wouldn't know, because I got so freaked out I hung up the phone.
Monica: Well, if you had kept listening you would have heard me call him Mister Big-ot. Mr.
Bigot. I mean, he tells the most racist jokes.
Rachel: All right. So that's it. You're telling me there's nothing going on between you and Chandler?
Monica: Me and Chandler? [Monica's work laugh]

Quote from Chandler

Monica: Honey? I just don't think you understood the joke.
Chandler: Really?
Monica: I mean, it was really funny. I just don't think that you got it. You see, Kara's coffee is weak-tasting. But what Doug did was imply that it was weak physically. You get it now, honey?
Chandler: I think I do! [Chandler and Monica do their work laughs] Thank you, Monica.
Monica: I thought you could use the help.
Chandler: Coffee in a fight! [Chandler and Monica do their work laughs]

Monica: Okay, great. Well, what I was doing in Chandler's room is that I was cleaning it. In fact, he pays me to clean it.
Rachel: What a great way to make some extra pocket money.
Monica: When I said to you earlier that I was at work, I'm at my new work.
Rachel: Good enough. Right? Okay, well, I'm going to go look at my books.
Monica: Okay. I'm going to go get back to my new job.
Rachel: Congratulations on your new job.
