Season 7, Episode 17 - Aired March 15, 2001
When Monica beats another bride-to-be in a fight over a wedding dress, the woman threatens to take the wedding band that Chandler has his heart set on unless Monica gives up the dress. Meanwhile, Joey and Ross compete for the affection of a woman who just moved onto the block.
Quote from Chandler
Chandler: So, Ross, how was your date the other night? Did you tell her about the magical ride that starts with the flush of every toilet?
Quote from Joey
Ross: Well, only one of us can keep dating her.
Joey: Obviously. So how do we decide?
Ross: Well, now, let's look at this objectively. I think I should date her.
Joey: Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Or I'm the one who dates her.
Ross: That's interesting. But check this out. I date her.
Joey: Yeah, yeah, I like that. But just to go in another direction-
Ross: Okay. Okay. This can go on for a while.
Joey: Yeah, well we should order some food then.
Quote from Ross
Ross: Maybe I'll take her to that new French restaurant down the street.
Joey: Hey, wait a second, now. We're going to have to set a spending limit on the date. I don't have the money to take her to a fancy place like that.
Ross: Well, sorry. That's what I do on dates.
Joey: All right. Well, I guess I'll just have to do what I do on dates.
Ross: So let's decide on a spending limit.
Quote from Joey
Joey: [murmuring] And a slice six dollars?
Ross: I was thinking more like 100.
Joey: Okay. Can I borrow 94 dollars?
Quote from Phoebe
Monica: Hello? What? You what? Hey, you listen here, missy!
Phoebe: What?
Monica: That was that girl, Megan. She booked The Swing Kings on the day of our wedding and said she wouldn't give them back unless I give her the dress.
Phoebe: [gasps] Does that mean Carcass is available?
Quote from Rachel
Chandler: What are you guys talking about?
Monica: We were just talking about The Swing Kings and whether they're the right way to go.
Rachel: Yeah, I went to a wedding once where they had swing music and two months later the couple divorced. I'm not saying there's any connection here, you know, but they tell me that's why they got divorced.
Quote from Phoebe
Chandler: But I love swing music.
Phoebe: Yeah, but The Swing Kings? You know, they suck so much that people actually die at their concerts. They just stop living.
Quote from Monica
Chandler: It's just, while Monica and I were dancing to them it was the first time I knew that you were the woman that I wanted to dance all my dances with.
Monica: Oh, crap.
Quote from Ross
Joey: Kristen?
Kristen: Joey! Hi.
Joey: Hi.
Kristen: What are you doing here?
Joey: Oh, well, I like this place. And technically, technically, I'm not breaking any rules, so...
Kristen: Well, Ross, this is Joey. Joey, Ross.
Joey: Hi.
Ross: Hi. It's nice to meet you. I used to have a friend named Joey. I don't anymore.
