Friends-S01-E01
There’s nothing to tell. It’s just some guy I work with.
Come on. You’re going out with a guy. There’s gotta be something wrong with him.
So does he have a hump and a hair piece?
Wait. Does he eat chalk ? Just becuase I don’t want her go through what I went through with Carl.
Ok, everybody relax. This is even not a date. It’s just two people going out to dinner and not having sex.
Sounds like a date to me.
=============
All right, so I’m back in my high school, standing in the middle of the cafeteria, and I realized I’m totally naked.
Oh, yeah.
I’ve had that dream.
Then I looked down and I realized there is a phone, there !
Instead of –
That’s right !
That one I’ve never had.
All of sudden, the phone starts to ring. And it turns out it’s my mother. Which is very, very weird, becuase she never calls me.
===============
Hi.
This guy says “Hello”, I wanna kill myself.
Are you okay, sweetie?
I just feel like someone reached down my throat, grabbed my small intestine, pulled it out of my mouth and tied it around my neck.
Cookie?
Carol moved her stuff out today.
Let me get you some coffee.
Thanks.
No. Oh, don’t! Stop cleansing my aura.
No just leave my aura alone, okay?
I’ll be fine. All right? Really, I hope she’ll be very happy.
No you don’t.
No I don’t. To hell with her. She left me.
And you never knew she was a lesbian.
No ! Okay? Why doese veryone keep fixating on that? She didn’t know. How shuold I know?
Sometimes I wish I was a lesbian. Did I say it loud?
All right, Ross. Look, you’re feeling a lot of pain right now. You’re angry. You’re hurting. Can I tell you what the answer is ?
Strip Joints.
Come on. You’re single. Have some hormones.
See, but I don’t want to be single, okay? Just wanna be married again.
And I just want a million dollars.
Rachel?
Oh, God, Monica! Hi! Thank God!
I just went to your buiding and you weren’t there, and this guy with a hammer said that you might be here, and you are.
Can I get you some coffee?
Decaf.
Okay, verybody, this is Rachel, another Lincoln High survivor.
This is verybody. This is Chandler and Phoebe and Joy. And remember my brother Ross?
Sure !
Hey!
Oh God!
So you wanna tell us now, or are we waiting for four wet bridesmaids?
Oh God! Well, it started about a half-hour before the wedding. I was in the room where we were keeping all the presents. And I was looking at this gravy boat. This really gorgeous Limoges gravy boat. When all of a sudden …
Sweet Low?
I realized I was more turned on by this gravy boat than by Barry. Then I got really freaked out, and that’s when it hit me: How much Barry looks like Mr. Potato Head. You know, I mean, I always knew he looked familiar, but…
Anyway, I just had to get out of there, and I started wondering: “Why am I doing this ?” and “Who am I doing this for ?”. So any way, I just didn’t know where to go, and I know you and I have drifted apart, but you are the only person I knew who lived here in the city.
Who wasn’t invited to the wedding.
Oh I was kind of hoping that wouldn’t be an issue.
===========
I’m gussing he bought her the big pipe organ and she’s really not happy about it.
Daddy, I just, I can’t marry him. I’m sorry. I just don’t love him.
Well, it matters to me.
She should not be wearing those pants.
I say push her down the stairs.
Come on Daddy! Listen to me!
It’s like all of my life, everyone’s always told me: You’re a shoe! You’re a shoe! You’re a shoe! Then today I stopped and said, "What if I don’t wanna be a shoe? What if I wanna be a purse? you know, or a hat? "
No I don’t want you to buy me a hat, I am saying that I am a hat. It’s a metaphor, Daddy!
You can see where he’d have trouble.
Look Daddy, it’s my life.
Well, maybe I’ll just stay here with Monica.
I guess we’ve established she’s staying with Monica.
Well, maybe that’s my decision. Well, maybe I don’t need your money. Wait! Wait! I said maybe …
==========================
Okay, just breathe, that’s it. Just try to think of nice, calm things.
sing…
I’m all better now.
I helped.
Okay, Look, this is probably for the best, you know? Independence. Taking control of your life.
And hey, if you need anything, you can always come to Joey. Me and Chandler live right accross the hall. And he’s away alot.
Joey stop hitting on her. It’s her wedding day.
What? Like there’s a rule or something?
Please don’t do that again. It’s a horrible sound.
Uh, it’s Paul.
Buzz him in.
Who’s Paul?
Paul, the wine guy, Paul?
Maybe.
Wait a minute. Your “not a real date” tonight is with Paul, the wine guy?
He finally asked you out?
Yes.
Ooh, this is a “Dear Diary” moment.
Rachel, wait, I can cancel.
Please, no. Go, I’ll be find.
Ross, are you okay? I mean, do you want me to stay ?
That’d be good.
Really?
No, go on. It’s Paul, the wine guy!
Hi come in. Paul this is … everybody. Everybody this is Paul.
I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name, Paul, was it?
Okay, sit down. Two seconds.
Ooh, I just pulled out four eyelashes. That can’t be good.
So Rachel, what are you up to tonight?
Well, I was kind of supposed to be headed for Aruba on my honeymoon… So nothing
Right, you’re not even getting your honeymoon. God, no no. Although, Aruba. Heh. This time of year? Eh. Talk about your big lizards.
Anyway, if you don’t feel like being alone tonight, Joey and Chandler are coming over to helping me put together my new furniture.
Yes, we’re very excited about it.
Actually, thanks, but I’m just gonna hang out there tonight. It’s been a long day.
Oh! Sure! Okay, sure.
Hey, Pheebs, you wanna help ?
Oh I wish I could, but I don’t want to.
===============
I’m supposed to attach a bracket-y thing to the side things, using a bunch of these little worm guys. I have no bracket-y thing, I see no worm guys whatsoever … and I cannot feel my legs.
Waht’s this?
I have no idea.
Done with the bookcase.
All finished.
This was Carol’s favorite beer.
She always drank it out of the can. I should have known.
Hey, Ross, let me ask you a question. She got the furniture, the stereo, the good TV. What did you get?
You guys.
Oh God. Oh my God.
You got screwed.
=====================
Oh my God.
I know, I know, I’m such an idiot.
I guess I should have caught on when she started going to the dentist four and five times a week. I mean how clean can teeth get?
My brother is going through that. He’s such a mess. How did you get through it?
He might try accidentally beaking someting valueable of hers. Say her -
Leg?
That’s one way of going through it, yeah.
Me, I went for the watch.
You actually broke her watch?
==========================
Barry, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
I know you probably think this is all about what I said the other night, about you making love with your socks on, but it isn’t. It isn’t. It’s about me. And I –
Hi. Machine cut me off again. Anyway…
=========================
You know what’s scary? What if there’s only one women for everybody? You know? I mean what if you get one women, and that’s it? Unfortunately, in my case, there was only one women for her.
What are you talking about? One women.
That’s like saying there’s only one flavor of ice cream for you. Let me tell you something Ross. There’s lots of flavors out there. There’s rocky road and cookie dough and bing cherry vaniila. You can get them with jimmies or nuts or whipped cream. This is the best thing that ever happened to you. You got married, You were like, what, 8? Welcome back to the world. Grab a spoon.
I honestly don’t know if I’m hungry or horny.
Then stay out of my freezer.
========
Ever since she walked out on me, I …
What? What? You wanna spell it out with noodles?
No, it’s more of a fifth date kind of revelation.
(revolution 革命
revelation 启示
evolution 进化)
Oh, so there’s gonna be a fifth date?
Isn’t there?
Yeah, yeah, I think there is.
What were you gonna say?
Well, Ever since she left me, um, I haven’t been able to perform sexaully.
Oh God, I am so sorry.
It’s okay.
I know being spit on is probably not what you need right now.
Um, how long?
Two years.
Wow!
I’m glad you smashed her watch.
So you still think you might want that fifth date?
Yeah, yeah I do.
==========
I, Joanie, take you, Charles, as my lawful husband.
Oh, see. But Joanie loved Chachi. That’s the difference.
========
“Grab a spoon”. Do you know how long it’s been since I grabbed a spoon? Do the words, “Billy, don’t be a hero” mean anything for you ? You know, here is the thing. Even if I could get it together enough to ask a women out, who am gonna ask?
=======
Isn’t this amazing? I mean, I have never made coffe before in my entire life.
That is amazing.
Congratulations.
While you’re on a roll, if you feel like you gotta make a Western omelet or something …
Although actually I’m really not that hungry this morning.
Good morning.
I had a really great time last night.
Thank you, thank you so much.
We’ll talk later, okay?
Yeah.
That wasn’t a real date. What the hell do you do on a real date?
Shut up and put my table back.
Okay.
All right, kids, I gotta get to work. If I don’t input those numbers, it doesn’t make much of a difference.
So like, you guys all have jobs?
Yeah, we all have jobs. See, that’s how we buy stuff.
Yeah, I’m an actor.
Wow, would I have seen you in anything?
Oh, I doubt it. Mostly regional work.
Unless you happened to catch the Reruns’ production of Pinocchio.
“Look, Geppeto, I’m a real live boy.”
I will not take this abuse.
You’re right, I’m sorry.
So how are you doing today? Did you sleep okay? Did you talk to Barry? I can’t stop smiling.
I can see that. You look like you slept with a hanger in your mouth.
I know. He’s just so … You remember you and Tony De Marco?
Oh yeah.
Well, it’s like that, with feelings.
Oh, wow, are you in trouble.
Okay, okay. I am just goging to get up, go to work, and not think about him all day. Or else I’m just gonna get up and go to work.
Oh, wish me luck.
What for?
I’m gonna get one of those job things.
=========
Hey, Monica !
Hey, Franny. Welcome back. How was Florida?
You had sex, didn’t you?
How did you do that?
So, who?
You know Paul?
Paul, the wine guy?
Oh, yeah. I know Paul.
You mean, you know Paul like I know Paul?
Are you kidding? I take credit for Paul. Before me, there was no snap in his turtle for two years.
=================
Of course it was a line.
Why? Why would anybody do something like that?
I assume we’re looking for an answer more sophisticated than to get you into bed.
Is it me? Is it like I have some sort of beacon that only dogs and men with severe emotional problems can hear?
All right, come here. Give me your feet.
J just thought he was nice, you know?
I can’t believe you didn’t know it was a line.
Guess what?
You got a job?
Are you kidding? I’m trained for nothing. I was laughed out of 12 interviews today.
Yet you’re surprisingly upbeat.
Well, you would be too if you found Joran and David boots on sale 50 percent off.
Oh, how well you know me.
They’re my new "I don’t need a job, I don’t need my parents, I’ve got great boots " boots.
How’d you pay for them?
Uh, credit card.
And who pays for that?
Um, my father.
===============
Come on, you can’t live off your parents your whole life.
I know that. That’s why I was getting married.
Give her a break. It’s hard being on your own for the first time.
Thank you.
You’re welcome. I remember when I first came to this city, I was 14. My mom had killed herself and my stepdad was back in prison. And I got here, and I didn’t know antbody. I ended up living with this albino guy who was cleaning windshields outside Port Authority. And then he killed himself. And then I found aromatherapy. So belive me, I know exactly how you feel.
The world you’re looking for is : "Anyway… "
All right, you ready?
I don’t think so.
Oh come on, cut, cut …
Hey.
All right. Welcome to the real word. It sucks. You’re gonna love it.
Well, that’s it. You gonna crash on the couch?
No, no. I gonna go home sometime.
Are you gonna be ok?
Look what I just found on the floor?
What?
That’s Paul’s watch. You can just put it back where you found it.
Oh boy. All right. Good night everybody.
Good night.
Oh sorry.
No. Oh no. Go.
No, you have it, really. I don’t want it.
Split it?
Okay.
Thanks.
You know, you probably didn’t know this, but back in hight school I had a major crush on you.
I knew.
You did? Oh.
I always figured you just thought I was Monica’s geeky older brother.
I did.
Oh
Listen, do you think… And try not to let my vulnerability become any kind of a factor here. Do you think it would be okay if I ask you out sometime, maybe?
Yeah. Maybe.
Okay, okay. Maybe I will.
Good night.
Good night.
See you.
Wait wait. Hey, what’s with you?
I just grabbed a spoon.
======
I can’t belive what I’m hearing here.
What? I said you had …
Would you stop?
Oh, was I doing it again?
Yes!
Would anybody like more coffee?
Did you make it or are you justing serving it?
I’m just serving it.
I’ll have a cup of coffee.
Kids, new dream. I’m in Las Vegas. I’m Liza Minnelli.
