Quote from Chandler

Monica: My boots in tan. Can you get a little closer so I can see the price?
Chandler: I can see it from right here. It'll cost you one husband.

Quote from Monica

Monica: So, what do you think?
Chandler: New haircut? Necklace? Dress? Boots? Boots!
Monica: Yes. Now, they're a little more than I usually spend on boots. Or rent.
Chandler: Oh, my God.
Monica: I know.
Chandler: I'm going to miss being able to afford food.
Monica: I'm sorry. They just looked so good. And the saleswoman was looking at me like: "Ooh, these are way too expensive for you."
Chandler: She had a point.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Oh, my God. Oh, Monica, those boots are amazing.
Monica: They're mine.
Chandler: Yeah, well, too bad we're going to have to return them.
Rachel: Return them? Ssh. They're gonna hear you.

Quote from Rachel

Joey: Hey, Rach. Listen, all right. Can you do me a favor? I was talking to my sister and she knows you work at Ralph Lauren-
Rachel: Forget it. No way. I am not sending more Ralph Lauren clothes to prison. It is a waste.

Quote from Joey

Joey: You're going to love her so much. Oh, she's the smartest of all the Tribbiani children.
Yeah, you know the SATs?
Rachel: Yeah.
Joey: She took them.

Quote from Chandler

Monica: See, Chandler? I'm getting a lot of use out of them already. They're very practical. See, you can wear them with dresses, skirts, with pants-
Chandler: You can wear them with shorts on the street corner and earn money to pay for them.

Quote from Monica

Monica: I told Chandler I'd wear them all the time. I can't just give them away.
Phoebe: Then get your money back and return them.
Monica: I can't do that either. The soles are scuffed up, and the insides are filled with my blood.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: All right, Dina. Let's talk about the different areas of fashion you could get involved in.
Let's see. There's design. But you may need a whole other degree for that. There's sales, which is great because you get to travel.
Dina: I don't care about fashion. I'm pregnant and I know you are too, so you gotta help me.
Rachel: And then there's marketing.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: Don't forget my office holiday party's tonight.
Monica: Honey, we don't really have to go to this thing tonight, do we?
Chandler: Now, sweetie, I know that you don't like the office parties, but you could wear your new boots. See? Every cloud has a supple leather lining.

Quote from Monica

Monica: In fact, I picked out an outfit I want to wear and the boots don't really go with it.
Chandler: You said you paid all that money because those boots go with skirts, dresses and pants.
Monica: Fine, if you want me to wear the boots, I'll wear the boots. In fact, I'll go into my room right now and, you know, try the outfit on.
Chandler: Okay.
Monica: Ooh-wee! Christmas party in my boots! Ha, ha, ow, ow, ha, ha, ow.
