I'll Be There For You - TV Version

by The Rembrandts

So no one told you life was gonna be this way [four claps]
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month or even
your year, but

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

I'll Be There For You - Long Version

by The Rembrandts

So no one told you life was gonna be this way [four claps]
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month or even
your year, but

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast so far, things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought you
down to your knees

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

No one could ever know me, no one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one, who knows what it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst, I'm best with you
Yeah!

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even
your year, but

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

120: TOW The Evil Orthodontist

[Scene: Central Perk, everyone but Rachel is there.]

CHANDLER: I am telling you, years from now, schoolchildren will study it as one of the greatest first dates of all time. It was unbelievable! We could totally be ourselves, we didn't have to play any games...

MONICA: So have you called her yet?

CHANDLER: To let her know I like her? What are you, insane? 

GIRLS: Guys, that's gross.

CHANDLER: It's the next day! How needy do I want to seem? (To the guys) I'm right, right?

JOEY AND ROSS: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Let her dangle.

MONICA: I can't believe my parents are actually pressuring me to find one of you people.

PHOEBE: Oh, God, come on, just do it! (Grabbing the phone.) Call her! Stop being so testosteroney!

CHANDLER: Which, by the way, is the real San Francisco treat.

MONICA: Which one was Pete Carney?

RACHEL: Pete the Weeper? Remember that guy who used to cry every time we had sex. (imitating) "Was it good for you?"

MONICA: Yeah, well, I'll take a little crying any day over Howard-the-"I-win"-guy. (imitating) "I win! I win!" I went out with the guy for two months - I didn't get to win once.

RACHEL: How did we end up with these jerks? We're good people!

MONICA: I don't know. maybe we're some kinda magnets.

PHOEBE: You know my friend Abby who shaves her head? She said that if you want to break the bad boyfriend cycle, you can do like a cleansing ritual.

RACHEL: Pheebs, this woman is voluntarily bald.

MONICA: Ok, well, what kind of ritual?

PHOEBE: Ok. We can, um, we can burn the stuff they gave us.

RACHEL: Or?

PHOEBE: Or...or we can chant and dance around naked, you know, with sticks.

MONICA: Burning's good.

RACHEL: Burning's good.

MONICA: All I have is, is oregano and a Fresca.

PHOEBE: Um, that's ok! (throws it in fire) All right. Now we need the semen of a righteous man.

RACHEL: Ok, Pheebs, you know what, if we had that, we wouldn't be doing the ritual in the first place.

MONICA: Can we just start throwing things in?

PHOEBE: Um, yeah, ok. (she throws the directions in)

RACHEL: (tossing things in the fire) Ok, Barry's letters. Adam Ritter's boxer shorts.

PHOEBE: Ooh, and I have the, uh receipt for my dinner with Nokululu Oon Ah Ah.

CHANDLER: Happy birthday, pal!

JOEY: We love you, man. (Kisses Ross)

ROSS: Funny, my birthday was seven months ago.

JOEY: So?

ROSS: So, I'm guessing you had an extra ticket and couldn't decide which one of you got to bring a date?

CHANDLER: Well, aren't we Mr "The glass is half empty."

ROSS: Oh my god, oh - is today the twentieth. October twentieth?

MONICA: Oh, I was hoping you wouldn't remember.

ROSS: Ohhh.

JOEY: What's wrong with the twentieth?

CHANDLER: Eleven days before Halloween...all the good costumes are gone?

ROSS: Today's the day Carol and I first...consummated our physical relationship. (Joey is puzzled.) Sex. ...You know what, I-I'd better pass on the game. I think I'm just gonna go home and think about my ex-wife and her lesbian lover.

ROSS: What if there's only one woman for everybody, y'know? I mean what if you get one woman - and that's it? Unfortunately in my case, there was only one woman - for her...

JOEY: What are you talking about? 'One woman'? That's like saying there's only one flavor of ice cream for you. Lemme tell you something, Ross. There's lots of flavors out there. There's Rocky Road, and Cookie Dough, and Bing! Cherry Vanilla. You could get 'em with Jimmies, or nuts, or whipped cream! This is the best thing that ever happened to you! You got married, you were, like, what, eight? Welcome back to the world! Grab a spoon!

ROSS: I honestly don't know if I'm hungry or horny.

CHANDLER: Stay out of my freezer!

[Scene: Ross's Apartment, they're still sitting around talking]

ROSS: (scornful) Grab a spoon. Do you know how long it's been since I've grabbed a spoon? Do the words 'Billy don't be a hero' mean anything to you?
Y'know, here's the thing. Even if I could get it together enough to - y'know - to ask a woman out,... who am I gonna ask? (He gazes out of the window)

110: TOW The Monkey

PHOEBE: I wanna start with a song that means a lot to me this time of year. (Shakes bell as an introduction) (starts singing)
I made a man with eyes of coal
And a smile so bewitchin',
How was I supposed to know
That my mom was dead in the kitchen?
(shakes bell) La lalala la la la la lalala la la..

(Cut to later. Everyone is totally depressed by now.)

PHOEBE: (still singing)
...My mother's ashes
Even her eyelashes
Are resting in a little yellow jar,
And sometimes when it's breezy...
...Or if I'm feeling sneezy
And now I - (abruptly stops)

PHOEBE: Excuse me, excuse me! Yeah, noisy boys!

102: TOW The Sonogram At The End

[Scene: Central Perk, everyone's there.]

MONICA: What you guys don't understand is, for us, kissing is as important as any part of it.

JOEY: Yeah, right!.......Y'serious?

PHOEBE: Oh, yeah!

RACHEL: Everything you need to know is in that first kiss.

MONICA: Absolutely.

CHANDLER: Yeah, I think for us, kissing is pretty much like an opening act, y'know? I mean it's like the stand-up comedian you have to sit through before Pink Floyd comes out.

ROSS: Yeah, and-and it's not that we don't like the comedian, it's just that-that's... that's not why we bought the ticket.

CHANDLER: The problem is, though, after the concert's over, no matter how great the show was, you girls are always looking for the comedian again, y'know? I mean, we're in the car, we're fighting traffic...basically just trying to stay awake.

RACHEL: Yeah, well, word of advice: Bring back the comedian. Otherwise next time you're gonna find yourself sitting at home, listening to that album alone.

JOEY: (pause) .... Are we still talking about sex?

JOEY: (He tosses and catches the phone.) My agent has just gotten me a job...in the new Al Pacino movie!

ALL: Oh my god! Whoah!

MONICA: Well, what's the part?

JOEY: Can you believe this? Al Pacino! This guy's the reason I became an actor! "I'm out of order? Pfeeeh. You're out of order! This whole courtroom's out of order!"

PHOEBE: Seriously, what-what's the part?

JOEY: "Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!"

ROSS: C'mon, seriously, Joey, what's the part?

JOEY: ...I'm his (mumbles)

RACHEL: ..You're, you're 'mah mah mah' what?

JOEY: ...I'm his butt double. 'Kay?' I play Al Pacino's butt. He goes into the shower, and then - I'm his butt.

MONICA: (trying not to laugh) Oh my god.

JOEY: C'mon, you guys. This is a real movie, and Al Pacino's in it, and that's big!

CHANDLER: Oh no, it's terrific, it's...it's...y'know, you deserve this, after all your years of struggling, you've finally been able to crack your way into showbusiness.

JOEY: Okay, okay, fine! Make jokes, I don't care! This is a big break for me!

ROSS: You're right, you're right, it is...So you gonna invite us all to the big opening?

RACHEL: Ross kissed me.

MONICA: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!

RACHEL: It was unbelievable!

MONICA: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!

PHOEBE: Ok, all right. We want to hear everything. Monica, get the wine and unplug the phone. Rachel, does this end well or do we need to get tissues?

RACHEL: Oh, it ended very well.

MONICA: [getting the wine] Do not start without me. Do not start without me.

PHOEBE: Ok, all right, let's hear about the kiss. Was it like, a soft brush against your lips? Or was it like a, you know, a "I gotta have you now" kind of thing?

RACHEL: Well, at first it was really intense, you know. And then, oh god, and then we just sort of sunk into it.

PHOEBE: Ooh, so, ok, was he holding you? Or was his hands like on your back?

RACHEL: No, actually first they started on my waist. And then, they slid up, and then, they were in my hair.

CHANDLER: Ok, last night at dinner it's like all of a sudden, we were this couple, ok? And this alarm started going off in my head, y'know: 'Run for your life! Get out of the building!'

MONICA: What is it with you people! I mean, the minute you start to feel something, you have to run away?

CHANDLER: I know, that's why I don't want to go tonight, I'm afraid I'm going to say something stupid.

MONICA: Oh, you mean like that guy thing where you act mean and distant until you get us to break up with you.

JOEY: Hey, you know about that?!

CHANDLER: Look what do I do? I wanna get past this, I don't wanna be afraid of the commitment thing, I wanna go through the tunnel to the other side!

JOEY: Well, I've never been through the tunnel myself, 'cause as I understand it, you're not allowed to go through with more than one girl in the car, right. But, it seems to me it's pretty much like anything else, you know, face your fear. In this case, you have a fear of commitment, so I say you go in there and you be the most committed guy there ever was. Go for it man, jump off the high dive, stare down the barrel of the gun, pee into the wind!

CHANDLER: Yeah, Joe, I assure you if I'm staring down the barrel of a gun, I'm gonna be pretty much peeing every which way.

203: TOW Heckles Dies

PHOEBE: That's fine. Go ahead and scoff. You know, there're a lot of things out there that I don't believe in, but that doesn't mean they're not true.

JOEY: Such as?

PHOEBE: Like crop circles, or the Bermuda triangle, or evolution.

ROSS: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What, you don't, uh, you don't believe in evolution?

PHOEBE: I don't know, it's just, you know...monkeys, Darwin, you know, it's a, it's a nice story, I just think it's a little too easy.

ROSS: Too easy? The process of every living thing on this planet evolving over millions of years from single-celled organisms, is, is too easy?

PHOEBE: Yeah, I just don't buy it.

ROSS: Uh, excuse me. Evolution is not for you to buy, Phoebe. Evolution is scientific fact like the air we breathe, like gravity.

PHOEBE: Oh, ok, don't get me started on gravity.

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

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

ROSS: I didn't know what I was taking responsibility for! Okay?! I didn't finish the whole letter!

RACHEL: What?!!

ROSS: I fell asleep!

RACHEL: You fell asleep?!

ROSS: It was 5.30 in the morning, and you had rambled on for 18 pages. Front and back!! (they go into the living room, trapping Monica, Chandler, and Joey in the kitchen) (to Rachel) Oh-oh-oh, and by the way, Y-O-U-apostrophe-R-E means 'you are', Y-O-U-R means 'your!'

RACHEL: Y'know I can't believe I even thought of getting back together again! We are so over!!

ROSS: (starts to cry) FINE BY ME!! (he opens the door and traps Chandler behind it)

RACHEL: Oh, oh and hey-hey-hey, those little spelling tips will come in handy when you're at home on Saturday nights playing Scrabble with Monica!!

MONICA: Hey!!

RACHEL: (to Monica) Sorry!! (to Ross) I just feel bad about all that sleep you're gonna miss wishing you were with me!

ROSS: Oh, no-no-no don't you worry about me falling asleep. I still have your letter!!!

CHANDLER: Okay, I've been doing a lot of thinking about us, y'know a lot of uhh, us thinking. And uh, well I guess there's only one, one  way to do this. (He slowly and awkwardly gets down on one knee.)

MONICA: Wait what-wh-wh-what are you doing?!

CHANDLER: (getting out a ring box) Monica...

MONICA: No-no, don't-don't-don't do it!

CHANDLER: Monica, Will you marry me?

MONICA: Chandler, why are you doing this?

CHANDLER: I'm doing this because I'm sorry?

MONICA: Do you umm, you really think the best reason to get married is because you're sorry?

CHANDLER: Oh no, the best reason to get married is pregnancy. So I was pretty much for it, y'know, behind being ready and actually wanting to get married. (laughs) Will you be my wife?

MONICA: You know that none of that stuff came from me?! I mean I never said I wanted to have babies and get married right now.

CHANDLER: Yeah I know, but I was really confused and then I talked to these guys. (turns to look at Ross and Joey)

MONICA: Who? Two divorces and Joey?

ROSS: Hey!

JOEY: She's right y'know.

ROSS: Yeah, but still, cheap shot!

MONICA: Y'know when I said that I want you to deal with this relationship stuff all on your own? Well, you're not ready for that.

CHANDLER: I didn't think I was! (they hug)

MONICA: Oh my God, what would you have done if I had said yes?

CHANDLER: Well I would've been happy because I would've been able to spend the rest of my life with the woman that I love. Or, you would've seen a Chandler shaped hole in that door.

ROSS: You're right, I'm sorry. Will you marry me?
(they all laugh)

PHOEBE: Aw, and I was gonna ask you to marry me because I forgot to say hello to you last week.

RACHEL: Oh no wait Pheebs, I think for something like that you just ask them to move in with you. But I'm not sure, Chandler?

CHANDLER: Okay, how long is this going to go on.

MONICA: Well I think the length of teasing is, is  directly related to how insane you were so, a long time.

ROSS: This is fun. Hey Rach, remember that whole "We were on a break thing?" Well, I'm sorry, will you marry me? (laughs--whines as he sees that no one is laughing. They're just staring at him in shock.)
