Chapter Four - Time Is Never Wasted, It Drinks Responsibility.

Philosophy question of the week: If you fart in the middle of a wood and no one is there to smell it, is it still funny?

[Setting: Monica and Chandler's apartment]

[Monica is setting the table and Phoebe is looking out the window]

Phoebe: I miss ugly naked guy.

Monica: Yeah, it's just not a good evening without being made violently sick.

Phoebe: Yeah.

Monica : Are you sure this is going to work?

Phoebe: ...Uh-huh.

Monica: You don't know what I'm talking about, do you?

Phoebe: Uh-huh...no.

Monica: The prank?

Phoebe: Oh, the prank...

Monica: With the glue?

Phoebe: Ah, the glue...

Monica: Do you want me to tell you the prank, again?

Phoebe: No...yes.

Monica: We put glue on our chairs, the boys thinking the glue is on their chairs will switch them and hey presto! Sweet revenge.

Phoebe: That's a good prank.

Monica: You came up with it.

Phoebe: Man, I'm smart.

Monica: ...Yeah.

[Setting: Joey's apartment]

[Chandler and Joey are watching television]

Joey: Do you ever wonder what it would be like to live inside the TV?

Chandler: ...No.

[Ross enters]

Ross: Hey.

Joey & Chandler: Hey!

Ross: What ya watching?

Chandler: We're not exactly sure but we think she is just about to take her clothes off.

Ross: ...Okay.

[All three watch the TV]

[Woman on the TV is shot]

[Ross, Chandler and Joey are shocked]

Joey: Oh man, now she's never going to take off her clothes. Unless...Nope, never.

Chandler: So what's up with you? Baby keeping you up at night?

Ross: No, that's Rachel.

Joey: Oh, really...

Ross: Not like that.

Joey: [Disappointed] Oh.

Ross: She never gets up during the night. It's always up to me.

Chandler: Have you tried pretending to be asleep?

Ross: That doesn't work, she just holds my nose until I choke.

Joey: How about just telling her it's her turn to get up?

Ross: Have you met Rachel?

Joey: Oh, yeah.

Ross: What should I do?

Chandler: I don't know...Maybe you go on a "business trip". That way Rachel would be forced to look after Emma.

Ross: Business trip? Hmm...I have been wanting to go see the digs at the Isle of Wight.

Joey: Isle of Wight? Yeah, that's a good one Ross.

Ross: No, it really does exist.

Joey: Yeah, sure it does. [Joey winks]

Ross: O...Kay...So, what have you two done today? Anything productive?

Chandler: Well, we were meant to do something but we couldn't remember what.

Joey: Yeah, so we just watched TV instead. Not one of the hot women took off their clothes though.

Ross: What about her?

[Ross pointed to the TV]

[Chandler and Joey turn round but just miss the naked lady shot]

Joey: Aww...come on!
