Season 4, Episode 16 -  Aired March 19, 1998

Ross tries to cram in as much time with Emily before she leaves for London. Rachel, hoping to spend more time with Joshua, arranges an impromptu going away ostensibly for Emily. Meanwhile, Joey helps Phoebe out when the pregnancy causes her to crave meat.

Quote from Rachel

Joey: Anyway, she takes off her bra under the shirt and pulls it out the sleeve. Very sexy. And classy.
Monica: Or, if you want to kiss him, you could use mistletoe.
Rachel: It's not Christmas.
Monica: Or spin-the-bottle.
Rachel: And he's not 11.

Quote from Phoebe

Joey: You feel better now?
Phoebe: Yeah, but at what cost? Six more months, three meals a day. I am going to eat, like, you know, millions of cows.

Quote from Joey

Joey: What if I even things out for you, meat-wise?
Phoebe: What?
Joey: Well, I eat a lot of meat, right?
Phoebe: Yeah.
Joey: But suppose, until the baby's born, I laid off it. No extra animals would die. You'd just be eating my animals.
Phoebe: Joey, I can't believe you'd do that for me.
Joey: Absolutely. I could be a vegetarian. There's no meat in beer, right?

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Can you not look at me when I say this? I thought that if I could get you here I could seduce you.
Joshua: I don't wear suits to work. And I bought six of them from you.
Rachel: Well, I'm sorry. I thought you needed them.
Joshua: No, no. My point is, I kept coming back because I wanted to see you.
Rachel: Why?
Joshua: Because I like you.
Rachel: You like me?
Joshua: Yeah. I mean, you're beautiful and smart and sophisticated. A lot of this isn't based on tonight.

Quote from Rachel

Joshua: But-
Rachel: No "but." "But" is never good. Let's leave it at "l like you and you like me." Okay.
Joshua: However-
Rachel: No, that's a fancy "but."

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: You seem to really like her.
Ross: Yeah, I really do. But what am I going to do? I mean, we both agreed it was going to be a two-week thing. No commitment.
Rachel: Ross, that girl just spent the entire evening talking to your friends, asking to hear stories about you, looking through Monica's photo albums. I mean, you don't do that if you're just in it for two weeks.
Ross: You think?
Rachel: You've got, like, 14 hours until she has to be at the airport. And you're sitting here in a hallway with a 28-year-old cheerleader with a fat lip.

Quote from Phoebe

Joey: What do you got there?
Phoebe: Pastrami.
Joey: Ooh, yeah. Hey, you know what goes good with that?
Phoebe: Hmm? Corned beef.
Joey: I was going to say bologna, but that's much better. How about a little of that smoked turkey?
Phoebe: Okay.
Joey: Oh, mama. When is the baby due?
Phoebe: Six months.
Joey: Oh. Now, if a cow should die of natural causes, I could have one of those, right?
Phoebe: Not if I get there first.

Quote from Chandler

Chandler: [in a British accent] Anyone for more tea? No, just me then.
Monica: Hey, Ringo, every time Emily's around, you talk like her. Would you please cut it out?
Chandler: [chuckles] I think you like it. I think you can't resist me when I do it. You want to eat me up like a cream [British accent] "pumpet."
Monica: What?
Chandler: All right, look, I don't know all the words.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Hey.
Chandler: Hey.
Rachel: You're a pathetic loser, right?
Chandler: Oh, yeah.
Rachel: Sit.

Quote from Chandler

[After Phoebe knocks over a box of cereal:]
Chandler: Whoa-oh. Cereal killer.
Monica: Cereal killer?
Chandler: Hey, come on, I say more dumb things before 9 a.m. than most people say all day.
