Ross
Ironically, most of the boxes seem to be labeled clothes.
Rachel
Ohh, I'm gonna miss that big old squishy butt.
Chandler
And we're done with the chicken fried rice.
Ross
Hey! Hey! If he's moving, maybe I should try to get his place!
Everyone
Good idea! Yes!
Ross
It would be so cool to live across from you guys!
Joey
Hey, yeah! Then we could do that telephone thing! Y'know, you have a can, we have a can and it's connected by a string!
Chandler
Or we can do the actual telephone thing.

You mean how they're friends and nothing more? (Glares at Rachel.)
Rachel
No. Joey, she knows! We were at Ugly Naked Guy's apartment and we saw them doing it through the window. (Joey gasps) Actually, we saw them doing it up against the window.
Phoebe
Okay, so now they know that you know and they don't know that Rachel knows?
Joey
Yes, but y'know what? It doesn't matter who knows what. Now, enough of us know that we can just tell them that we know! Then all the lying and the secrets would finally be over!
Phoebe
Or, we could not tell them we know and have a little fun of our own.
Rachel
Wh-what do you mean?
Phoebe
Well y'know every time that they say that like they're doing laundry we'll just give them a bunch of laundry to do.
Rachel
Ohhh, I-I would enjoy that!
Joey
No-no-no! No-no wait Rach, you know what would even be more fun? Telling them.
Rachel
Ehhh, no, I wanna do Phoebe's thing.
Joey
I can't take any...
Phoebe
No! You don't have to do anything! Just don't tell them that we know!
Joey
Noo! I can't take any more secrets! (To Rachel) I've got your secrets. I've got their secrets. I got secrets of my own y'know!
Rachel
You don't have any secrets!
Joey
Oh yeah? Well, you don't know about Hugsy, my bedtime penguin pal. (Joey shies away.)
Rachel
(To Phoebe) So umm, how-how are we gonna mess with them?
Joey
Ugh.
Phoebe
Well, you could use your position y'know as the roommate.
Rachel
Okay.
Phoebe
And then. I would use y'know the strongest tool at my disposal. My sexuality.
Chandler
(entering) Hello children!
Everyone
Hey!
Phoebe
Okay, watch, learn, and don't eat my cookie.
(She gets up and goes over to Chandler who's ordering some coffee from Gunther.)
Chandler
Hey.

Hey! Ooh, wow that jacket looks great on you!
Chandler
Really?
Phoebe
(feels his arm) Yeah the material feels so soft-hello Mr. Bicep! Have you been working out?
Chandler
Well, I try to y'know, squeeze things. (Phoebe giggles uncontrollably.) Are you okay?
Phoebe
Well, if you really wanna know, I'm-Oh! I can't tell you this.
Chandler
Phoebe, it's me. You can tell me anything.
Phoebe
Well actually you're the one person I can't tell this too. And the one person I want to the most.
Chandler
What's going on?
Phoebe
I think it's just y'know that I haven't been with a guy in so long and how sometimes you're looking for something and you just don't even see that it's right there in front of you sipping coffee-Oh no, have I said to much? Well it's just something to think about. I know I will.

Monica
Okay, now you're even cuter!!
Chandler
Y'know that is a popular opinion today I must say.
Monica
What?
Chandler
The weirdest thing happened at the coffee house, I think, I think Phoebe was hitting on me.
Monica
What are you talking about?
Chandler
I'm telling you I think Phoebe thinks I'm foxy.
Monica
That's not possible!
Chandler
Ow!
Monica
I'm sorry it's just, Phoebe just always thought you were, you were charming in a, in a sexless kind of way.
Chandler
Oh, y'know I-I can't hear that enough.
Monica
I'm sorry, I think that you just misunderstood her.

Ross
(entering) Hey!
Rachel
Hey Ross! Any word on the apartment yet?
Ross
Well, I called over there and it turns out Ugly Naked Guy is subletting it himself and he's already had like a hundred applicants.
Rachel
Oh.
Ross
No-no, I got the edge. I know it's not exactly ethical but I sent him a little bribe to
tip the scales in my direction. Check it out, you can probably see it from the window. (They all head to the window.)
Monica
Oh, is it that pinball machine with the big bow on it?
Ross
No.
Chandler
That new mountain bike?
Ross
No.
Monica
Well what did you send?
Ross
A basket of mini-muffins.
Phoebe
But there's a whole table of mini-muffin baskets. Which one did you send?
Ross
The small one.
Rachel
What?! You-you actually thought that basket was gonna get you the apartment?
Ross
Well yeah! Someone sent us a basket at work once and people went crazy over those little muffins. It was the best day.
Chandler
Your work makes me sad.
Ross
Oh man! I want that place so much!! I was so sure that was gonna work! There's twelve bucks I'll never see again! (Exits.)
Rachel
All right honey, we'd better go if we wanna catch that movie.
Monica
Bye!
Everyone
Bye!
Phoebe
Bye Chandler! (She walks up to him.) (Quietly.) I miss you already. (She pinches his butt.)
Chandler
(after they've left) Okay, did you see that?! With the inappropriate and the pinching!!
Monica
Actually, I did!
Chandler
Okay, so now do you believe that she's attracted to me?
Monica
Ohhh, oh my God! Oh my God! She knows about us!
Chandler
Are you serious?
Monica
Phoebe knows and she's just trying to freak us out! That's the only explanation for it!
Chandler
(a little hurt) Okay but what about y'know my pinchable butt and my bulging biceps-She knows!

Monica
Joey!
Joey
And Rachel. I would've told you but they made me promise not to tell!
Chandler
Oh man!
Joey
I'm sorry! But hey, it's over now, right? Because you can tell them that you know they know and I can go back to knowing absolutely nothing!
Monica
Unless...
Joey

Ross
Look I've already looked at like a thousand apartments this month and none of them even compares to that one!
Rachel
Y'know what you should do?
Ross
Huh?
Rachel
You should find out what his hobbies are and then use that to bond with him. Yeah! Like if I would strike up a conversation about say umm, sandwiches. Or uh, or my underwear.
Joey
I'm listening.
Rachel
(To Ross) See?
Ross
That is a great idea! And! I know Ugly Naked Guy because we've been watching him for like five years so that gives me back my edge! Oh, let's see now he had the trampoline.
Phoebe
He broke that.
Ross
Well, he had gravity boots.
Rachel
Yeah, he broke those too.
Joey
So he likes to break stuff.
Ross
Okay, I've got to go pick up Ben but I-I will figure something out. (He opens the door and stops.) Hey, didn't he used to have a cat?
Phoebe
I wouldn't bring that up, it would probably just bum him out.
Joey
Yeah, poor cat, never saw that big butt coming.
Ross
Right. (Exits.)
(The phone rings and Rachel answers it.)
Rachel
Hello! (Listens) Oh yeah! Hey! Hold on a second she's right here! (To Phoebe) It's Chandler.
Phoebe
(in a sexy voice) Oh? (Takes the phone from Rachel.) Hello you.
Chandler
Hello Phoebe, I've been thinking about you all day. (He's holding the phone so that Monica can hear it as well.)
Phoebe
Eh?
Chandler
Well you know that thing you said before, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't intrigued.
Phoebe
Really?
Chandler
Yeah, listen, Joey isn't gonna be here tonight so why don't you come over and I'll let you uh, feel my bicep. Or maybe more.
Phoebe
I'll have to get back to you on that. Okay, bye! (Hangs up.) Oh my God! He wants me to come over and feel his bicep and more!
Rachel
Are you kidding?!
Phoebe
No!
Rachel
I can not believe he would do that to Mon-Whoa! (She stops suddenly and slowly turns to point at Joey. Joey is avoiding her eyes.) Joey, do they know that we know?
Joey
No.
Rachel
Joey!
Joey
They know you know.
Rachel
Ugh, I knew it! Oh I cannot believe those two!
Phoebe
God, they thought they can mess with us! They're trying to mess with us?! They don't know that we know they know we know! (Joey just shakes his head.) Joey, you can't say anything!
Joey
I couldn't even if I wanted too.

Phoebe
Oh absolutely. Shall we say, around seven?

Phoebe.

Chandler.

Come on in.

I was going too. (They go inside and he closes the door.) Umm, I brought some wine. Would you like some?

Sure.
(She makes a big show out of pulling out the cork and pours the wine.)
Phoebe
So, here we are. Nervous?
Chandler
Me? No. You?
Phoebe
No, I want this to happen.
Chandler
So do I.
(They click their glasses and take a sip. That sip turns into a gulp, which quickly progresses into their mutual draining of their glasses at once.)
Chandler
I'm gonna put on some music.
Phoebe
Maybe, maybe I'll dance for you. (She starts doing a rather suggestive and seductive dance that's silly at the same time.)
Chandler
You look good.
Phoebe
Thanks! Y'know, that when you say things like that it makes me wanna rip that sweater vest right off!
Chandler
Well, why don't we move this into the bedroom?
Phoebe
Really?
Chandler
Oh, do you not want to?
Phoebe
No. No! It's just y'know first, I wanna take off all my clothes and have you rub lotion on me.
Chandler
(swallowing hard) Well that would be nice. I'll go get the lotion.
[Cut to the bathroom, Chandler is entering.]
Chandler
Listen, this is totally getting out of hand! Okay? She wants me to put lotion on her!
Monica
She's bluffing!
Chandler
Look, she's not backing down! She went like this! (He does a little mimic of her dance.)
[Cut to the hallway where Phoebe is conferring with Rachel.]
Phoebe
He's not backing down. He went to get lotion.
Joey
(entering the hall) Oh man! Aren't you guys done yet?! I wanna sit in my chair!
Rachel
Joey look, just look at it this way, the sooner Phoebe breaks Chandler the sooner this is all over and out in the open.
Joey
Ooh!
Rachel
Okay!
Joey
I like that! (To Phoebe) Oh, okay! Show him your bra! He's afraid of bras! Can't work 'em! (He swiftly rips open the front of Phoebe's dress revealing her bra.)
Phoebe
Joey! (Examining the dress.) Wow, you didn't rip off any buttons.
Joey
It's not my first time.
[Cut to the bathroom.]
Monica
You go back out there and you seduce her till she cracks!
Chandler
Okay, give me a second! (Pause) Did you clean up in here?
Monica
Of course.
(Cut back to the living room. Chandler slowly exits the bathroom and gets pushed from behind by Monica and sees Phoebe closing the apartment door.)
Chandler
Oh, you're-you're going?
Phoebe
Umm, not without you, lover. (She slowly walks over to him and is showcasing her bra.) So, this is my bra.
Chandler
(swallowing hard) It's very, very nice. Well, come here. I'm very were gonna be having all the sex.
Phoebe
You should be. I'm very bendy. (Pause) I'm gonna kiss you now.
Chandler
Not if I kiss you first.
(They move closer to together and Phoebe hesitantly puts her hand on Chandler's hip. He puts his hand on her left hip but then decides to put his hand on her left hip. Phoebe then grabs his butt. Chandler goes for her breast, but stops and puts his hand on her shoulder.)
Phoebe
Ooh.
Chandler
Well, I guess there's nothing left for us to do but-but kiss.
Phoebe
Here it comes. Our first kiss.
(They slowly and hesitantly move their lips together and kiss gently. Phoebe has her eyes wide open in shock and Chandler is squinting. He finally breaks the kiss after only a short while and pushes Phoebe away.)
Chandler
Okay! Okay! Okay! You win! You win!! I can't have sex with ya!
Phoebe
And why not?!
Chandler
Because I'm in love with Monica!!
Phoebe
You're-you're what?!
(Monica comes out of the bathroom like a bolt, and Rachel and Joey both enter.)
Chandler
Love her! That's right, I...LOVE...HER!!! I love her!! (They walk together and hug.) I love you, Monica.
Monica
I love you too Chandler. (They kiss.)
Phoebe
I just-I thought you guys were doing it, I didn't know you were in love!
Joey
Dude!
Chandler
And hats off to Phoebe. Quite a competitor. (Pause) And might I say your breasts are still showing.
Phoebe
God! (She turns and buttons up.)
Joey
All right! So that's it! It's over! Everybody knows!
Monica
Well actually, Ross doesn't.
Chandler
Yes, and we'd appreciate it if no one told him yet.
(Joey suddenly gets very angry.)
