Quote from Rachel

Ross: Rach, come on, Emma's fine. You're turning into an obsessive mother, okay? You need to stop.
Rachel: Did you guys ever hear the story about when Ross's mom went to the beauty salon?
Chandler: You mean the willy story?
Ross: Ha, ha, they already know it.

Quote from Joey

Phoebe: You guys, we've been waiting for you for a long time. Maybe you should order.
Joey: No, no. That's okay. I already told the waiter what they want.
Monica: Why would you do that?
Joey: Chandler, control your woman.

Quote from Monica

Joey: What is going on with you two?
Monica: Well, you see, I'm ovulating.
Chandler: Oh, yeah, that's what she says. But maybe you're not ovulating at all. Maybe this was all a clever ruse to get me into bed.
Monica: Yeah, Smokey, that's what it was. I just can't get enough.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: You're not gonna believe this. She lied. She tricked me into having sex with her.
Joey: So? You got to have sex, right?
Chandler: What's the matter with me? Why am I such a girl?

Quote from Ross

Rachel: If Phoebe's gone, can we please take Emma home?
Ross: I think that's a good idea. Our babysitter just pounded another chardonnay.

Quote from Chandler

Monica: So, I'm probably still ovulating. Do you want to give it another try?
Chandler: All right. So, you've never had sex with a Kennedy, have you?

Quote from Joey

Joey: You're gonna go do it now?
Monica: We don't have much time. Once the egg descends into the Fallopian tube-
Joey: Oh, get out of here!
