‘The One with the Blind Dates’

Season 9, Episode 14 -  Aired February 6, 2003

Joey and Phoebe conspire to get Ross and Rachel back together by setting them up on terrible dates. Meanwhile, Monica and Chandler babysit Emma.

Quote from Chandler

Rachel: You guys aren't doing anything tonight, are you?
Chandler: See, now, why would you assume that? Just because we're married? I mean, I will have you know that we are very hip, happening people. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to reading the obituaries.

Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: Ooh. Rachel's gonna have a terrible date, Ross gets stood up, and then they'll realize how good they have it together.
Joey: Ah, yes, the plan. Ho, ho, ho.
Phoebe: It's not Santa's plan. No, it's- [laughs manically]
Joey: [laughs maniacally] Yeah, you know, it's not that fun.
Phoebe: No, I think we killed it.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: Don't cry, it's just a bit. I'm your uncle Chandler. Funny is all I have!

Quote from Ross

Waiter: Can I get you another glass of wine?
Ross: I don't know if I should. I don't want to be drunk when I go home alone tonight.
Waiter: Got stood up, huh?
Ross: It's no big deal. It's just a blind date.
Waiter: Are you worried your date came, saw you and left?
Ross: No!

Quote from Chandler

Monica: Unless maybe we do it here. I mean, how much can she even be aware of at this age?
Chandler: Well, she's aware when we leave a room. She may notice if we start canoodling in it.
Monica: Canoodling?
Chandler: Well, I can't say hump or screw in front of the B-A-B-Y.

Quote from Monica

Monica: I guess you're right.
Chandler: You guess I'm right? When we stayed at that bed-and-breakfast, you wouldn't have sex with me because you thought a deer was staring through the window.
Monica: Well, what kind of a sick bastard wants to do it in front of a deer?

Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: Well, our plan is working. Rachel's having a miserable time and Ross is just stood up somewhere at a restaurant all alone.
Joey: Oh, great. Pretty soon they'll be back together.
Phoebe: By the time anyone's figured out what we've done, we'll be in sunny Mexico. Oh, wait, that's the end of a different plan.

Quote from Joey

Joey: Hello? Emma? Hey. Hi. How are you? How are you? Where are your babysitters, huh? Why is the bedroom door closed? You can't have S-E-X when you're taking care of a B-A-B-l-E.

Quote from Ross

Waiter: Look, you got stood up. Who cares? We're gonna show you a good time. Sit and relax. In fact, let me bring you a crab-cake appetizer on the house.
Ross: Wow, free crab cakes? Well, that's nice. Although I was hoping to have sex tonight.
Waiter: Ooh.
Ross: Just the crab cakes.

Quote from Ross

Waiter #2: What are you doing? Are you trying to get him to stay? You can't do that.
Waiter: Just get out of here, okay?
Ross: I'm sorry, what's going on?
Waiter: Okay, the waiters have a little pool going. We have a bet on how long it'll take before you give up and go home.
Ross: What?! You're making money off my misery?
Waiter: Well, if you stay till 9:20, I am.
Ross: This is unbelievable. I have never been so insulted in my life. Now, if you'll wrap up my free crab cakes, I'll be on my way.
