Scenes with Monica Geller 208

Well, hello!

Where've you been?

The doctor.

Is everything okay?

Oh, yes. Just had me a little nubbin-ectomy. Yep. Two nipples, no waiting.

Monica

Wow. Just like Rachel in high school.

What?

Monica

Come on, I was kidding. It was such an obvious joke.

That was an obvious joke. And I didn't think of it. Why didn't I think of it? [Points at his chest] The source of all my powers. Oh, dear, what have I done?

[Monica and Phoebe are on a double date with UN Diplomat Sergei and his translator.]

Monica

I speak a little French too. Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?

[The translator shrugs and blushes.]

Monica

What did I say?

TTranslator

You just asked me whether I wanted to go to bed with you tonight!

[Chandler lights a cigarette]

Chandler, what are you doing?

Monica

Chandler!

[realizes he's smoking] Oh my God!

You're smoking again?

Well, actually, yesterday I was smoking again. Today, I'm smoking still.

Why would you start again after chewing all that quitting gum?

Look, I'm telling you, this is just like my parents' divorce, which is when I first started smoking in the first place.

Monica

Weren't you 9?

[with the cigarette sticking out of his mouth] Yeah. I'm telling you something, that first smoke after naptime.

[a knock on the door is heard]

Oh, that's great. With my luck, that's gonna be him.

Him? Him, Ross?

No, "Hymn" 253: "His eyes are on the Sparrow." When my parents got divorced, I started using humor as a defense mechanism.

[Chandler opens the door and it turns out to be Rachel]

Hi. Uh, do you guys have plans for the weekend? Because my sister's on hold and she said that we can have her cabin for the weekend, and go skiing. Huh? I'm asking you first, right? I mean, I'm playing by the rules.

Monica

Absolutely.

Yeah.

Yeah.

[Chandler starts smoking in front of Rachel]

Chandler! You're smoking? What are you doing?

Hey, shut up! You're not my real mom.

You know, I didn't wear this suit for a year because you hated it. Well guess what, you're not my girlfriend any more, so...

Oh I see, so this suit is making a point. Now that you're on your own, you're free to look as stupid as you'd like.

[to Monica] You like it, right?

Monica

Absolutely. I like it even more on you than I did on Colonel Sanders.

Monica

I gotta go water Pete's plants. You know what? If he's gonna break up with me, maybe I won't water his plants.

Well, if he's gonna break up with you, maybe Joey and I should water his plants, if you know what I mean.

Or -- ha, ha! -- we could go over there and pee on them!

S3 E23 The One with Ross's Thing
View quote →

And for the record, it took two people to break this relationship!

Yeah! You and that girl from the copy place, which yesterday you took full responsibility for!

I didn't know what I was taking responsibility for! I didn't finish the letter!

What?

I fell asleep!

You fell a-SLEEP?!

It was five-thirty in the morning! And you had rambled on for eighteen pages! Front and back! [leaves the room, then turns around] And by the way, y-o-u-apostrophe-r-e is "you are". Y-o-u-r is "your"!

I can't believe I even thought of getting back together with you! We are soooo over!

[fakes beginning of sniveling and interrupts it saying...] FINE BY ME!

And those little spelling tips will come in handy when you're home on Saturday nights playing scrabble with Monica!

Monica

Hey!

Sorry! But I feel bad about all that sleep you'll miss wishing you were with me!

Oh, no, don't worry about me "falling asleep." I still have your letter! [walks out]

And, hey, just so you know -- it's not that common, it doesn't happen to every guy, and it is a big deal! [slams door, revealing Chandler behind it]

I knew it!

Monica got stung by a jellyfish.

Monica

Alright, alright. I got stung. I got stung bad. I couldn't stand. I couldn't walk.

We were two miles from the house. We were scared and alone. We didn't think we could make it.

Monica

I was in too much pain.

And I was tired from digging a huge hole!

And then Joey remembered something...

I'd seen this thing on The Discovery Channel.

Wait a minute, I saw that, on The Discovery Channel. About jellyfish, and how if you... Eww! You peed on yourself?

PRPhoebe, Rachel

Eww!

Monica

You can't say that! You don't know! I thought I was going to pass out from the pain. Anyway, I tried, but I couldn't...bend that way. So...

PRPhoebe, Ross, Rachel

[turning to the guys] Eww!

Yeah that's right. I stepped up! She's my friend and she needed help. And if I have to I'd pee on any one of you. Only, I couldn't... I got the stage fright. I wanted to help, but there was just too much pressure. So, so I turned to Chandler.

[moans] Joey kept screaming at me. Do it now, do it, do it, do it, do it now! Sometimes late at night I can still hear the screaming.

[chuckles] That's cause sometimes I scream it through my wall just to freak you out.

Maybe there's someone you can talk to.

Monica

Yeah like who? There's no group for people like us.

[Monica has just walked in on Joey and Chandler's freshly robbed by a stupid move by Joey apartment]

Monica

What happened?

Well, let's see, Joey was born, and then 28 years later, I was robbed.

Well... everyone seems to like your dish.

Monica

And you?

I thought it was... quite tasty.

Monica

So if everyone liked it, and you liked it, that would make this a success, which would make you...

A bitch?

Monica

Well, I was going for "wrong", but we can use your word.

You know what else is really great about him? Oh, what is the word for an adult who doesn't have dinosaur toys in their bedroom?

Oh... [knocks his fists together at Rachel]

What was that?

Monica knows.

Monica

It's this dumb thing that Ross made up just to try to fool our parents. It's a way of giving the finger without actually having to give it. [to Ross] I remember I cried the night you made that up. It was the first time I realized I was cooler than my big brother.

Well, I'm gonna go get ready... [knocks his fists at Monica]

Yeah, but, Monica -- do you really want to be in a relationship where you can actually use the phrase "That's not how your dad used to do it"?

Monica

[indicating each of the group in succession] Fine! Judge all you want to, but: [to Ross] married a lesbian; [to Rachel] left a man at the altar; [to Phoebe] fell in love with a gay ice dancer; [to Joey] threw a girl's wooden leg in a fire; [to Chandler] living in a box!
