‘The One with the Fertility Test’

Season 9, Episode 21 -  Aired May 1, 2003

Monica and Chandler have an unexpected encounter at the fertility clinic. Meanwhile, Joey turns to Ross for advice on how to impress Charlie, and Phoebe urges Rachel not to visit a corporate massage chain.

Quote from Chandler

Monica: I think it's a good idea to find out if everything's okay. Just a few routine tests.
Chandler: But I don't want to do it in a cup.
Monica: What is the big deal?
Chandler: It's weird. You're in a doctor's office.
Monica: It's not okay to do it in a doctor's office but it is okay to do it in a parked car behind a Taco Bell?
Chandler: I cannot believe Ross told you that. And in my defense, it was a Wendy's.

Quote from Rachel

Monica: It's so weird. How did Joey end up kissing Charlie last night? I thought you'd end up kissing Charlie.
Ross: Hey, I thought I'd end up kissing Charlie too. But surprise.
Chandler: I missed most of the party. Charlie's a girl, right?
Ross: Yeah, she's this new professor in my department that I did not kiss.
Rachel: I don't know why Joey had to kiss her. I mean, of all the girls at the party, God!
Ross: Why do you care so much?
Monica: Yes, Rachel. Why do you care so much?
Rachel: Because Ross is the father of my child. You know, and I want him to hook up with lots of women.

Quote from Ross

Charlie: I feel like I owe you an explanation. I don't ordinarily go around kissing guys at parties. I'm- Well, I'm kind of embarrassed. I really hope you don't think less of me.
Ross: Think less of you? No. I don't think less of you. I mean, you saw someone you liked and you kissed them. Now, those people who like someone and don't kiss them those people are stupid. I hate those people.

Quote from Monica

Phoebe: What's that? Hey, Rachel? No, you can't go there. You know how I feel about these big massage places. They're putting people like me out of business.
Monica: She wants to go hunting too!

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: Phoebe, come on, I don't want to waste it. It would be like throwing away 100 bucks.
Phoebe: Okay, this is not about the money. Okay? It's about corporate greed destroying our hearts and leaving us hollow shells.
Rachel: I don't care about any of that.
Phoebe: Well, do you care about friendship? I feel really strongly about this, Rachel. Please don't use this gift certificate. I'm asking you as a friend.
Rachel: Oh, not as a friend, Phoebe! Fine. I won't use it.
Phoebe: Promise?
Rachel: I promise.
Phoebe: Thank you.
Rachel: Well, I am going hunting.

Quote from Monica

Monica: Besides, tomorrow we're doing those fertility tests. Until then, you need to keep your tadpoles in the tank.

Quote from Chandler

Monica: Look, I don't want to do these tests either. But I really do think it's a good idea.
Chandler: Okay, I'm sure a doctor's office can't be worse than on a class trip to the Hershey factory. [Monica gasps] Oh, yeah. Rachel talks, too!

Quote from Joey

Joey: Who says wine has to cost more than milk?

Quote from Rachel

Receptionist: Hello. Welcome to Lavender Day Spa. How may I help you?
Rachel: Hi. I have a massage appointment under Rachel Green. And here is my gift certificate.
Receptionist: This has been torn up.
Rachel: And taped back together.

Quote from Ross

Joey: I need to talk to you about Charlie.
Ross: Oh, do you? Do you really?
