Ross: Shouldn't the pizza be here by now? I mean, they said thirty minutes or less. Well, how long has it been?
Mike: Eleven minutes. (Long pause) And now twelve. (edit) Chandler: (Hushed) No, no, no, no, no. Joey can't know that I'm here.
Monica: Why not?
Chandler: Because I didn't know how to tell him that I couldn't go to the Knicks game. So, I just told him that I had to stay in Tulsa.
Monica: So, you lied to him?
Chandler: Ah. It's always better to lie than to have the complicated discussion. (Pause) Except with you.
(edit) Joey: What are you... (Sees her in her negligee) Why are you dressed like that?
Monica: Oh, because, um... well, Chandler's going to be home in a couple of days. So, I thought I would, you know, practice the art of seduction. (edit) Joey: What? You think I'm too dumb to understand that a husband needs to be with his wife? Do you think I'm like, "Duh?" (Hits himself with a bat) (edit) Joey: If you’ve just got back from Tulsa, how did your suitcase beat you here?
Chandler: (To Monica) I climb down the fire escape, and you can’t put that in the closet?! (edit)
Mike: Eleven minutes. (Long pause) And now twelve. (edit) Chandler: (Hushed) No, no, no, no, no. Joey can't know that I'm here.
Monica: Why not?
Chandler: Because I didn't know how to tell him that I couldn't go to the Knicks game. So, I just told him that I had to stay in Tulsa.
Monica: So, you lied to him?
Chandler: Ah. It's always better to lie than to have the complicated discussion. (Pause) Except with you.
(edit) Joey: What are you... (Sees her in her negligee) Why are you dressed like that?

Goof: A major part of this episode centers around Rachel giving her phone number to a man named Bill who she meets at a bar, and then worrying about how Ross will react when Bill calls their apartment. However, when Bill asked Rachel for her phone number, he made it clear he would be calling her a little later that night if he and his friend found any good parties. We know from "The One with Joey's New Brain" that Rachel definitely has a cell phone she carries with her. Why then would Rachel give Bill her home number rather than her cell phone number (even if the Ross situation was not a factor)?
(edit)
Continuity: In this episode, Mike asks Ross if he has a keyboard in his apartment, and Ross says he does not. But in "The One Where Chandler Crosses the Line," we learned that Ross does have a keyboard in his apartment. He ran home to get it to play his "sound" for everyone.
