Ross' Apartment…

Ross is sitting on his couch cutting up a newspaper. In front of him are a stack of small pieces he's already cut and another newspaper.

The door opens, it's Rachel. "Hey Ross…" she says, but she looks a bit confused. He's still cutting up the newspaper, he looks content. "uhh...what are you doing?" she asked as she walked over for a closer look.

"I'm saving 15 cents on Laundry Detergent." He answered back. He's finished cutting the piece out of the paper and places it on top of the stack with the others. "I figure, why waste all this money when I can be clipping these coupons and save! It's smart thinking! And they have coupons for everything!"

"All what money, Ross? It's 15 cents." She said as she picked up the stack of coupons he had already clipped. "It adds up!" he remarked. "Let's see who's laughing last when I save money and your broke." He continued. "Oh yeah, I'm sure you'll be laughing and I'll feel so bad" Rachel said sarcastically. "You bet you will." He answered.

She's shuffling through the coupons and stops at one. "Why do you have a coupon for Tampons?" she wondered. "Oh, it's for 23 cents off." He said and then went back to his clipping. "Okay…You do know that these are for women, right?" she said. "Yes, I know, but you never know when someone is going to need one, then who's the hero? Me!" Ross replied.

"You're a regular superman. Anyway, I came for that universal remote you were talking about. Joey's been going crazy without a remote…and now even more so with the mouse." She said. "Oh yeah, I have it, give me a second" he answered as he walked into the hallway that led to his bed room. "You guys have a mouse in your apartment?" he said from the bedroom. "Yeah, it's huge too! We're setting a trap for it today." She answered. Ross walked out of the bedroom with a small box in his hand. It was the universal remote.

"You know in 1999 a mouse was successfully cloned. Thanks of course to Stem Cell research. It's interesting because…" Ross explained. "Oh Ross just give me the damn remote!" Rachel cut him off and snatched the remote out of his hands. "Well, I thought it was interesting…" he went on. "Whatever, thanks for the remote." Rachel said as she walked out the door.

The door shut.

"Some people just don't share the same thirst for knowledge as I do." He said to himself. "Oh well…" he sat back down on his couch and continued cutting up his coupons.
