‘The One with the Cheap Wedding Dress’

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 Ross

Kristen: Our table will be ready in a couple minutes, so-
Joey: Sure. I would love to wait with you guys. Thanks.
Ross: So, Joey, you look familiar. Are you on TV or something?
Kristen: Well, Joey doesn't like to talk about it but he's one of the stars of Days of Our Lives.
Ross: That's right. That's right. Don't you play a woman?
Joey: A woman in a man's body.
Ross: Much better.

Quote from Ross

Joey: So, you know, Ross, it's funny, because you look familiar to me too. Have you ever been married?
Ross: Why yes. Yes, I have. In fact, just the other day Kris and I were talking about how I've been married and how I have a son.
Kristen: Yeah. Little Eric.
Ross: That's right. Wait. No, Ben.
Joey: So you've just been married the one time then?
Ross: Well, um...
Kristen: You've been married twice?
Ross: Yes. And another time after that.

Quote from Joey

Kristen: Do you two know each other?
Ross: No.
Joey: But it just seems like Ross is the kind of guy who would marry a woman on the verge of being a lesbian and then push her over the edge.

Quote from Joey

Joey: Have you ever slept in the same bed with a monkey?
Ross: Hey, you leave Marcel out of this!

Quote from Ross

Joey: Where do you think we lost her?
Ross: Probably around gonorrhea.

Quote from Monica

Chandler: You got a wedding dress?
Monica: Yeah, but I'm not keeping it.
Chandler: Then why can't I see it?
Monica: Oh. I guess you can. But I have to return it, so you can't like it.
Chandler: Okay, I promise. I'll hate it. Wow. You look hideous.
Monica: Really?
Chandler: Yeah. That's like the most ugliest dress I've ever seen. Why do you have to return it?
Monica: Oh, because it doesn't really fit. Oh, by the way, I booked The Swing Kings.
Chandler: Oh, that's great. Great. Thanks. But that dress is, like, yuck. It's terrible. It makes me want to just rip it off you.
Monica: Okay. But you can't rip it. Well, maybe a little.

Quote from Joey

Joey: This is impossible, Monica. Why don't you just pick all 15?
Monica: There were only 12.
Joey: Oh, yeah, I added 3.
Monica: What are "peanut-butter fingers"?
[Joey mimes sticking two fingers into a jar of peanut butter and licking it off]

Quote from Joey

Monica: So the wedding caterers sent me this list of 12 appetizers and I have to narrow it to 6.
Joey: Food? Oh, give me.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: So did Monica tell you this great band called The Swing Kings we're trying to get to play the wedding?
Phoebe: Since when are you into swing music?
Chandler: Since forever. I used to go all over town listening to bands.
Monica: Chandler?
Chandler: Gap commercial.

Quote from Phoebe

Rachel: Oh, my God. You look so beautiful!
Phoebe: Thank you, Rachel. But look at Monica.
