"There she is Joey." Michael said as they silently watched. Her hair was long and honey brown and she had blue eyes that sparkled. She was tanned and long legged. Around her neck hung a red macramé necklace and she wore a tank top that proclaimed Cal Tech. Her shorts were boy shorts and they snuggly hugged one of best butts that Joey had ever seen.

"And you say she is real smart?" Joey asked as he continued to watch from the table.

"She can calculate about any nuclear fission formula in a matter of minutes." Michael said with admiration. "Plus she is so hot."

"I know what you mean. I dated a hot paleontologist once and there is nothing hotter than a girl with a brain." Joey smiled with the memory of Charlie.

"Hold it, you dated a scholar?" Michael was quite surprised at that fact. Joey didn't seem to go for the academic type.

"Yeah , she was black and she had come to teach at NYU , and she was hot.'

"Did anything happen between you two?"

"No she said we that we didn't have enough in common. She was kind of a tramp too. She went from her boyfriend in Boston to me and then to Ross within a matter of weeks." Joey said sadly.

"Rachel's Ross?" Michael asked, now familiar with the tales of all of Joey's friend. '

"Yep, and when I saw them making out, I kissed Rachel. But that isn't the point now, we are trying to get you hot girl. Go over there and talk to her." Joey said pushing his nephew.

"Hi." Michael said shyly.

"Hi ." Candace smiled brightly. She turned around and saw Joey sitting at the table. "Oh my God , you're Joey Tribbiani from Days of our Lives." She ran from Michael. He just shook his head , Joey was doing it again.

"I used to love to watch you as Drake Ramoray. Then I followed you until you left Deep Powder. You are only one of my favorite tv stars." She gushed.

Joey took this as an advantage and put his arm around the girl. "Well then I would like to meet my nephew Michael , here. He goes to Cal Tech." Michael put his hand out shyly. "Hi." He smiled earnestly. "Hi, you are cute and you go to Cal Tech?" she asked.

"Yes I do, candidate for rocket expulsion.

"Really I am a nuclear physics candidate." Joey was still puzzled with all this science talk. Then he saw the opportunity to enter the conversation again. "You know, I am throwing a big Hollywood type party at my new house for New Years, and I would love for you to come." Candace squealed at the invitation.

"And if you would allow me, I will be your date." Said Michael.

"Sounds great, I usually don't date guys that are scientists. After being with brains all day, I like to be with guys that are fun." She said bobbing her head . "Can you be fun?"

With his high squealing voice he proclaimed. "I can be tons of fun."

"Then it's a date. Here's my cell . Call me." Candace grabbed her bag and walked away.

Joey and Michael high fived each other. Michael had a date, now they needed to find one for Joey.

Joey called Bobbie's office and sure enough Gina was sitting at her desk with Alex hearing the whole conversation. "Sure I can get you a date. Who do you want? Some hot girl who was in Maxim or on the cover of Sports Illustrated? No problem , I 'll just tell Bobbie. Bye." Gina giggled as she hung up the phone on her brother.

"What is so funny? He said he wanted a girl." Alex shrieked. "This is going to be harder than I thought."

"Remember I said that Bobbie would find him a date. I never said I would." Gina said evilly.

"You are the best." Shrieked Alex.

"I just thought of another idea. You are going to bond with these women he invited to find out all about Joey." Gina said. "I mean they were with him for ten years. They can clue you in on what Joey really likes in a girl."

"But Gina , I don't know them. Maybe they all might end up hating me too." Alex said worriedly.

"Or they might just tell you how to get Joey." Gina knew this plan was going to be a winner. "Women who are settled down, can't resist to see their male friends happy and in love. Joey can have a night with his buddies and we can pump these girls with booze and let them talk."

Alex was so glad she had Gina as an ally. This was all going to come to gether. Alex was finally going to admit to Joey that she loved him and she wanted to be with him. No more chasing girls and no more of that cheesy line . "How you doin?" He would only be saying that to her.

'We will be landing soon at LAX. The temperature in Los Angeles in eighty five degrees. We hope that you have had an enjoyable flight and wish you all a very happy new year as well." The flight attendant made the announcement as the plane was landing.

"Well this is it." Said Monica as she gathered up the bags and watching the twins. They were so excited when they felt the plane landing, moving their hands and arms up and down.

"Unka Joey, Unka Joey." They kept chanting.

"Do you think you could put that damn wedding planner down long enough to take your daughter out of her seat , so we can put her in her stroller?" Ross said impatiently.

"Only if you can take your nose out of that damn magazine." Rachel said glaring at him.

"Guys , guys., chill." Monica was getting tired of these arguments. It seems as the wedding day drew closer . Ross was getting more and more hostile. She was afraid that any day now , he was going to say they broke up. Something had to be done.

"Yeay California here we come." Phoebe started to sing.

Mike joined in. "Right back where we started from."

"I didn't know I was on the plane with Ricky and Lucy." Chandler said.

"Sorry we are just so happy to be in California." Phoebe said. "There is no snow and it s warm. "

"And we are going to party with the stars." Said Rachel as she held Emma . Emma was holding on to her stuffed Melman as she was rolled off the plane. Next was Chandler pushing the twins , in their little twin buggy.

Joey stood there as they all came down the ramp at baggage claim.

"Hey guys ! Over here." Joey said as he waved his arms. Chandler saw him and waved . Same old Joey. Stardom hadn't changed him at all.
