"And that is what we call a trilobite." Ross said as he finished his lecture. "Any questions?"
The lady in the front was making a lot of notes on her notebook. She wasn't exactly a student, she was more concerned with the professor than the notes. There was something there and Delores had been sent to New York to find it.
As the students got up, Delores smoothed her mini skirt and walked to the front of the lecture hall.
"Dr. Geller, I enjoyed your lecture immensely."smiled Delores.
"Well thank you, it is always refreshing to see another adult interested in paleontology. I wish that my wife shared your interest , but she is more interested in dresses than dinosaurs." Ross laughed.
"Well if I was her, I wouldn't let such a handsome man out of my sight." Delores playfully said.
Ross didn't know what to make of this older woman. She was dressed very stylishly and had a certain air about her. But now it seemed like she was coming on to him.
"Ma'am, I don't know what you are really doing here. If you are generally interested in the topic, that's fine. But if you came here with some little sick idea of trying to seduce me, you might as well know I am very much in love with my wife." Ross pointed out.
"Oh it's nothing like that. My name is Delores Hall , I am the development producer for the Discovery Channel. We are currently casting a show in the same line as Crocodile Hunter, except he would travel the world in search of the evidence of dinosaurs. A friend of mine told me about you, and I think you would make a very good candidate for that position." Delores said.
"Me on television?" Ross asked.
"Yes I was watching you all through the lecture and noticing your "stage presence." so to speak. You have a command of your students and an immense knowledge of the material." Delores continued.
"Well I did play in Hamlet in college." Ross admitted.
"I knew you had some ability. Well if you and your wife would like to get together with me. We could further discuss the ideas that I have for the show." Delores said. "Here is my card."
Ross took the business card that read DELORES HALL, DEVELOPMENTAL PRODUCER , DISCOVERY CHANNEL, "Thank you Ms. Hall, I will let you know of a time and a place." Ross said as he put the card in his wallet.
"And cut, print it. Great Joey." Lauren smiled as she got down from her chair.
He walked over to Lauren and started to kiss her. "Joey!" she scorned.
"Sorry I forgot how hot of a producer I have." he smiled. Lauren immediately walked over to the table and wiped her hands and mouth.
"It's going to take some time. The therapist I am working with had said I am making progress." Lauren smiled as she looked at Joey.
Joey couldn't believe his luck Since he had landed in Hollywood, he hadn't had many breaks. His biggest mistake was passing up Nurses, followed by a run of bad theatre, and his cable show was cancelled before it aired. Then it happened by accident, DEEP POWDER…Baywatch at a Ski Lodge….he was cast as the heroines dad Langston Powder…it was a hit and the name Joey Tribbiani was a household name.
They couldn't have been prouder as they gathered round the television. Phoebe, Mike, Rachel, and the kids sat down as the opening theme of Deep Powder came on.
"Did I miss it?" screamed Monica as she sat down a bowl of dip on the coffee table.
"No honey, not yet?" Chandler said as he held a cranky Jack in his lap. "He doesn't appreciate good television." he laughed.
"I wonder where my husband is? His lecture ended an hour ago and he knew we were watching Joey's show." said Rachel.
As if on cue, Ross ran into the Bing's living room. He ran over and kissed Rachel and exclaimed. "Guess what everybody.? I'm going to be on television."
"Aren't you a little old for the Real World?" laughed Chandler.
"I'm serious , this lady from the Discovery Channel came in to hear one of my lectures today and said that they were thinking about building a show around me. " Ross went on.
"Is this the same Discovery Channel that was going to have you on to talk about fossils that about two people watched?" Chandler asked.
"I think that 's great honey! I am so proud of you." Rachel said as she kissed Ross on the cheek.
"So do I ," said Monica.
"Just think I will know two television stars." said Phoebe excitedly.
"Yeah , they want to make me the new Dino Man." said Ross.
Rachel tried to hold back the laughter. "Dino man honey?"
"Yeah you know how Steve Corwin is the Crocodile Hunter? Well they want to make me the Dino Man." Ross announced.
"Does that mean you will driving around town in a car with your barefoot and wearing animal skins?" laughed Chandler.
"Honey," Monica warned. "But you must admit , Dino Man ." she giggled.
" Able to leap coffee shop stools at a single bond. Faster than a speeding divorce lawyer. It's Dino Man." Chandler announced.
"Alright that's enough." Ross said disgusted.
"I think it's great Ross , congratulations, " hugged Phoebe.
"At least someone respects me." Ross said.
"Honey I didn't say I didn't respect you . I said I am proud of you." Rachel said.
"Yeah man, congrats ! You deserve this." Chandler hugged him.
"And Rach, we are supposed to meet with this lady tomorrow. Could you possibly hook me up with some new threads?" Ross said in an effort to be cool.
"Excuse me?" Rachel said.
"What your incredibly nerdy husband who is once again trying to be hip said is that he would like you to do is get him some stylish clothes." Chandler said.
"Sure honey we'll take care of that tomorrow." Rachel said.
