Quotes

add »
Chandler: Come on, I'll show you to my room... That sounds so weird when it's not followed by "No thanks, it's late." (edit)
Monica: (Fighting with Ross about what Roger said) Ya know, all these years, I thought you were on my side. But maybe what you were doing was sucking up to Mom and Dad so they'd keep liking you better!
Ross: Hey, I married a lesbian to make you look good! (edit)
Mr. Tribbiani: Joe, your dad's in love big time. And the worst part of it is, it's with two different women.
Joey: Oh man. Please tell me one of them is Ma. (edit)
Mr. Tribbiani: Remember when you were a little kid, I used to take you to the navy yard and show you the big ships?
Joey: Since then?!
Mr. Tribbiani: No, it's only been six years. I just wanted to put a nice memory in your head so you'd know that I wasn't always such a terrible guy. (edit)
Rachel: Any of you guys want anything else?
Chandler: Oh, yes, could I have one of those--
Rachel: No, I'm sorry, we're all out of those. Anybody else? (edit)

Trivia

add »
Continuity: When Joey and Chandler meet Ronni in the hall for the first time we see a radiator next to their door. This radiator is absent in later episodes. (edit)
Continuity: Joey's dad seems surprised things are wrong between Ross and his wife. However, when Joey first meets Ross in "The One with the Flashback" Ross is depressed that his wife's a lesbian. In other words, Ross's marriage hasn't been going well the entire time Joey has known Ross. (edit)
Trivia: In this episode we learn that Joey is really Joey Jr. (edit)
Continuity: Phoebe uses the intercom and has Monica buzz her in the building. Any other time her and Ross just come right in and in the very last episode of the series everybody has a key. (edit)
Trivia: In this episode, Joey's mother refers to him as "Cookie", although this is also the name of one of his sisters (which is revealed in season 3). Is "Cookie" just her nickname in the family or is it her real name? (edit)

Chandler: So, who's up for a big game of KerPlunk?

KerPlunk is a game marketed by The Milton Bradley Company. (edit)
Gloria: Of course I knew. What do you think? Your father is no James Bond.

James Bond 007 is a fictional British agent created in 1952 by writer Ian Fleming. Bond is featured in twelve novels and is arguably the most famous & most recognizable fictional character ever due to the unparalleled success of his 21 films (1962-2006). (edit)
Rachel: You're right. I mean you're right. It wasn't just the Weebles, but it was the Weeble play palace, and the Weebles cruise ship. Oh which had this little life boat for the Weebles to wobble in.

Weebles are a line of children's toys from Playskool. Shaped like eggs with a weight at the bottom, they wobble when pushed, but never fall completely over, hence the name. A wide range of accessories were available for the Weebles including vehicles, buildings and furniture. (edit)
Chandler: Things sure have changed here on Walton's Mountain.

Walton's Mountain is the name of a fictional town in Virginia which was the setting for the American television show, The Waltons. (edit)
