Quote from Joey

Joey: I'm telling you, it's gonna be worth it. It's a known fact that women love babies. All right, women love guys who love babies. It's the whole sensitive thing. Quick, aim him at that pack of babes. Maybe one of them will break away.

Quote from Joey

Chandler: Transit Authority? I'm doing research for a book. I was wondering what somebody might do if they left a baby on a city bus. Yes, I realize that would be a stupid character.
Joey: Hi. Here's the deal: We lost a car seat on a bus. It's white plastic with a handle and it fits onto a stroller. Oh, and there was a baby in it. He wants to talk to you again.
