• [first lines] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : Chandler! Chandler!

  [Ross opens the door to the apartment but is stopped by the chain; Chandler and Monica quickly stop making out and try to get dressed] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : Chandler, I saw what you were doing through the window! I saw what you were doing to my sister! Now get out here!

  Chandler : [to Monica]  Wow! Listen, we had a good run. What was it? Four? Five months? I mean, that's more than most people have in a lifetime! So, good-bye, take care, bye-bye then!

  [Chandler kisses her and starts to climb out the balcony window] 

  Monica : [to Chandler]  What are you doing?

  Chandler : Oh, I'm going on the lamb.

  Monica : [stopping him]  Come on Chandler, come on, I can handle Ross.

  [They go to the door. Ross is trying to stick his hand through and undo the chain but Monica pushes his hand back] 

  Monica : [to Ross]  Hold on!

  [She opens the door] 

  Monica : Hey Ross. What's up bro?

  [Upon entering, Ross makes a beeline for Chandler, who runs and hides behind Monica] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : What the hell are you doing?

  [Rachel and Joey come over from his apartment] 

  Rachel Green : Hey, what's-what's going on?

  Chandler : Well, I think, I *think* Ross knows about me and Monica.

  Joey Tribbiani : [concerned]  Dude! He's right there!

  Dr. Ross Geller : [to Chandler]  I thought you were my best friend, this is my sister! My best friend and my sister! I-I cannot believe this!

  Chandler : Look, we're not just messing around! I love her. Okay, I'm in love with her.

  Monica : [taking Ross's hand]  I'm so sorry that you had to find out this way. I'm sorry, but it's true, I love him too.

  [Long pause] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : [happily]  My best friend and my sister! I cannot believe this.

  [He hugs them both] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : [to Joey and Rachel]  You guys probably wanna get some hugs in too, huh? Big news!

  Rachel Green : Awww, no, it's okay, we've actually known for a while.

  [There's another pause as Ross gets angry again, much to the concern of Monica and Chandler] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : What? What? What? You guys knew?

  [Joey and Rachel backup against the door frame] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : You *all* knew and you didn't tell me?

  Rachel Green : Well, Ross, we were worried about you. Okay, we didn't know how you were going to react.

  [pause] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : [happily again]  You were worried about me? You didn't know how I was going to react?

  [He hugs Joey and Rachel] 

  Joey Tribbiani : Okay, all right, whew! What do you say we all clear out of here and let these two lovebirds get back down to business?

  [Ross turns and glares at him] 

  Joey Tribbiani : Hey-hey-hey, I-I-I'm just talking here,

  [pointing to Chandler] 

  Joey Tribbiani : He-he's the one doing your sister.

• Rachel Green : No, you're right! You are absolutely right. I mean that makes, that makes everything different.

  Chandler : Okay. It's not different at all, is it?

  Rachel Green : Not unless different means the same.
