  [pointing out a gift] 

  Chandler : OK, this one right here is from me.

  Rachel : [picks it up]  OK... ah, it's light...

  [shakes it] 

  Rachel : ... it rattles... it's...

  [opens it] 

  Rachel : Travel Scrabble! Oooohhh, thank you!

  [she gives it back to him] 

  Rachel : [Chandler looks dejected. Rachel picks up another gift]  This one's from Joey... feels like a book. Thinks it's a book... feels like a book. And...

  [opens it] 

  Rachel : ... it's a book!

  Phoebe : Oh, it's Dr. Seuss!

  Joey : [to Rachel]  That book got me through some tough times.

  Melanie : There is a little child inside this man!

  Chandler : Oh, that's Ross's.

  Rachel : Oh...

  [opens it] 

  Rachel : ...

  [sees it is a pin] 

  Rachel : Oh my God. He remembered.

  Phoebe : Remembered what?

  Rachel : It was like months ago. We were walking by this antique store, and I saw this pin in the window, and I told him it was just like one my grandmother had when I was a little girl. Oh! I can't believe he remembered!

  Chandler : Well, sure, but can you play it on a plane?

  [pats his Travel Scrabble game] 

  Phoebe : Oh, it's so pretty. This must have cost him a fortune.

  Monica , Rachel : I can't believe he did this.

  Chandler : Come on, Ross? Remember back in college, when he fell in love with Carol and bought her that ridiculously expensive crystal duck?

  Rachel : [Everyone looks at him. He realizes he just spilled the beans about Ross's crush on Rachel]  What did you just say?

  Chandler : [panicked]  ahem... um... Crystal duck.

  Rachel : No, no, no... the, um, the... 'love' part?

  Chandler : [stuttering incoherently]  F-hah... flennin...

  Rachel : Oh... my God.

  Chandler : [rubbing his temples]  Oh, no no no no no...

  Joey : [pats Chandler on the leg]  That's good, just keep rubbing your head. That'll turn back time.

• Rachel : [leaning over Ross' shoulder to look at picture of his baby]  Oh God, isn't he just the sweetest thing? You just wanna kiss him all over.

  Ross : [with desperate longing]  That would be nice.

• Monica : I think this is so great! I mean, you and Ross! Did you have any idea?

  Rachel : No. None! I mean, my first night in the city he mentioned something about asking me out, but nothing ever happened, so I just...

  [to Joey:] 

  Rachel : Well, what else did he say? Did he, like, wanna go out with me?

  Joey : Well, given that he's desperately in love with you, he probably wouldn't mind getting a cup of coffee or something.

  Rachel : [shakes her head]  All this time?

  [gets up] 

  Rachel : Well, I've gotta talk to him!
