Rachel: So, come on, what was the big news Pete wanted to tell you Mon? Or should I say Mrs. Monica Becker?
Phoebe: No, no, no, oh, keep your name, don’t take his name.
Monica: He didn’t ask me to marry him.
All: Oh.
Phoebe: Well then definitely don’t take his name. (edit) Ross: (About Joey's finger in his mouth) What is that taste?
Joey: What? My hands are totally clean, I just gave the duck a bath. (edit) Boss: And remember, there is no "I" in team.
Chandler: Yes, but there's two in "martini", so everybody back to my office! (edit) Chandler: (While watching Pete's fight on TV) Run! Run you crazy, rich freak. (edit) Chandler: I don't want to be the guy who has a problem with his boss slapping his bottom.
Monica: I gotta tell ya, I think it's okay to be that guy. (edit)

Trivia: Near the end of the episode Hoshi yells "What the hell are you talking about?" in another language. (edit) Goof: When Chandler's boss is slapping all the guys on the butt, on the side of the table closest to the camera there has a notepad with a pen on it. When the guy comes back in to get his briefcase, the pen is gone. (edit) Factual Error: In the opening of the episode, Monica lists a number of tactics as legal in the UFC due to a lack of rules. Included are hair pulling and biting, both of which are in fact illegal in UFC matches. (edit) Factual Error: In 1997, the time the episode took place, New York had banned the UFC and MMA fights from taking place. (edit) Goof: When Robin Williams calls Billy Crystal an obscenity, Monica's purse goes from on her lap, to on her shoulder, and back to her lap. (edit)

Pete: I'm telling you, the day will come when children will argue over who will win a fight, me or Superman. Now, I'm not saying I could beat Superman, but, ya know, kids are stupid.

Superman is a comic book superhero, originally created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, published by DC Comics. It was adapted into the 1978 blockbuster Superman. (edit) Rachel: Wow that was depressing. I think I just bought a soft pretzel from one of the kids in Fame.

Fame was a 1980's TV series and film about a New York high school for performing arts. (edit) (Ross is making dinner reservations on the phone)
Ross: That's right. Ryder. Winona Ryder for six. Thank you. (To the gang) Yeah. We have the reservation.

Winona Ryder is an Academy Award-nominated and Golden Globe-winning American actress. She will later appear in "The One with Rachel's Big Kiss" as an old college friend of Rachel's. (edit)
