TEXT: [Scene: Central Perk. All except Chandler, plus Emma.] Phoebe: Oh hey you guys, I couldn't get a reservation for the night of my birthday, so we have to do dinner Thursday night instead. Joey: Thursday? But that's Halloween. Phoebe: So? Joey: [It's just] So spooky, that's all. Ross: So, so, is Mike coming to dinner? Phoebe: No! It's my first birthday with a boyfriend, and he has to work. Uch, I get mad at him, but I think it's a little to soon to show my true colors. Rachel: Pheebs, I would make a reservation for five, because one of us has to stay home and watch Emma. (to Ross:) Which one of us should go to dinner? Phoebe: Oh, Rachel! Ross: Actually, um, I was thinking maybe both of us could go. Phoebe: Oh, yay! Ross: Thanks, I put a lot of extra thoughts on your gift. Phoebe: Alright, okay, so we can all go now. That is fun. Hey, you know what? We all haven't been together the six of us in such a long time. Monica: What are you talking about? We're all together right now. Rachel: Um, Mon, Chandler's not here. Monica: Oh, dear god! *Opening Credits* [Scene: Tulsa, a conference room. Chandler is chairing a group of eight people.] Chandler: Good morning everyone, it's nice to see our team together for the first time. Now, before we get started, are there any questions? (colleague raises hand) Yes, Ken is it? Ken: That's right. Is it true, that the reason you are here in Tulsa is that you fell asleep in a meeting and took the job without realizing what you were saying yes to? Chandler: (laughs) Well, don't believe everything you hear, Ken. (both turning away to files) But yeah, that's true. Alright, let's get started,
SUMMARY:
