The One With Rachel's Other Sister
Monica and Chandlers apartment
Monica: Hey Hon, could you help me get the plates down?
Chandler: Yeah. Hey, here's an idea, why don't we use our wedding china
today?
Monica: No, I think we should save our china for something really special.
Like if the Queen of England comes over.
Chandler: Honey, she keeps canceling on us, take the hint.
Monica: What if something gets broken, they're so expensive.
Chandler: What is the point of having them if we never use them?
Monica: Ok, but if something gets broken, and then the Queen comes over..
Chandler: I will explain it to her.
Monica:
Joey: wow, the parade is really good this year. Man those horses can crap.
TV announcer: Next up is a marching band from Muskogee, OK.
Chandler: Muskogee! That's like four hours from Tulsa. Woo hoo!
TV announcer: And heres the float with the stars of the popular daytime soap
Days of Our Lives .
Joey's eyes become large and he stands up
Joey: Oh my God!
Chandler: Aren't you one of the stars of the popular daytime soap Days of
Our Lives?
Joey: Yeah! I totally forgot I'm supposed to be there. I can't believe I
forgot. I usually write stuff like this on my arm.
Oh! Stupid long sleeves.
Chandler: What are you going to do?
Joey: I guess I'm going to have to come up with a really good reason why I
wasn't there. The producers are going to be so mad at me. They sat us all
down yesterday and said "Everyone has to be there at 6:00 AM sharp, that
means you Tribbiani." Like.. like I was some kind of idiot.
Chandler: Well you proved them wrong.
Joey nods: Yeah.

until told otherwise.
china we picked out..
Monica: I know, after you left the store, I chose different ones.

Chandler: Oh suddenly, flowers are feminine?
Phoebe: Hey, everybody. Happy Thanksgiving!
Joey: Hey happy Thanksgiving.. Pheebs!
Phoebe: Hey, what's going on Joe?
Joey: I.. I.. I need a good lie.
Phoebe: Oh okay. How about the whole "man walking on the moon" thing. You
know? You. you could. You could see the strings people!
Joey: No, no, no I need a good lie to explain why I wasn't at a work thing
today.
Phoebe: Ooh, honey. You stink at lying.
Joey: I do not.
Phoebe: Oh really. Okay. let me ask you something. Yesterday at the coffee
house, I went to the bathroom and when I came back, my muffin was gone-who
took it?
Joey: Somebody opened the door to the coffee house and a raccoon came
running in, went straight for your muffin and I said "Hey don't eat
that-that's Phoebe's" and he said..
lying." What am I going to do?
Phoebe: Don't worry, don't worry. We'll come up with a good lie. I'll help
you practice it.
Joey: Oh great, that'd be great. Thank you.
Phoebe: Sure, what.. what was the work thing?
Joey: Uh.. forgetting what the work thing was, rolls up his sleeve on his
right arm and shows Phoebe, she looks>
Phoebe: "Pick up grandma at the airport"?
Joey: Oh.. man..
Ross and Rachel's Apartment.
Amy with straight hair: Oh she's precious. Do you ever worry she's going to
get your real nose?
Rachel: Amy!
(Amy's cell phone rings)
Amy: Hello? Yeah, um. Hang on one sec.
upstairs?
Ross: Sure, we don't live there but...
Amy: Seriously? Its.. its just these rooms? (moves hands around motioning)
'just these rooms'>
Rachel: Yeah, no. Ross has a PhD.
Amy: Ew.
Rachel: God she is unbelievable.
Ross: I know, I mean a PhD is just as good as an MD.
Rachel: Oh sure Ross, yeah. If I have a heart attack in a restaurant, I want
you there with your fossil brush.
Amy storms out: Stupid Thanksgiving.
Rachel: What? What happened?
Amy: My boyfriend canceled on me. I mean.. I I finally find a real
relationship. I mean, someone that I can spend this day with and then his
wife comes back into town. I swear, its almost not worth dating married
guys.
Ross: Don't say that.
Amy: Oh. I was so looking forward to this. It was going to be such a
beautiful Thanksgiving. We were going to have sushi.
Rachel: Oh Amy, don't cry Amy. Um.. Ross, could I talk to you in private?
Ross: Sure, you want to go upstairs?
Rachel: Um look I was thinking.. If its ok with Monica I would like to
invite Amy to Thanksgiving.
Ross: You know, I think thats a great idea. It'll be like the pilgrims
bringing the Indians syphilis.
Rachel: Look I know she's a little tough to take. She has no where else to
go, and she's my sister. Alright, she's Emma's aunt. And I would like them
to bond.
Ross: Ok, fine, but I don't want them bonding to much. I don't want her
telling Emma she needs a nose job.
Rachel: Ross, you know what? She may need one..We're just going to have to
make our peace with that!
Monica and Chandler's apartment
Rachel opens their door: Hi.
Everyone there says: Hi, hey.
Rachel: Hey you guys, this is my sister Amy. This is Chandler, Joey, Phoebe
and you know Mon.
Everyone: Hi.
Amy: Oh my god. You're on Days of Our Lives.
Joey laughs: Yeah.
Amy: wow. They must put a lot of makeup on you.
Joey looks rejected: Hap.. Hap.. Happy Thanksgiving.
Ross to Monica: Hi.
Monica to Ross: Hi.
Monica to Emma: Hey you.
Monica to Amy: So. Welcome. Is this your first time you're seeing Emma?
Amy with confused look on face: Yeah I.. I think so. (sticks her hand out to shake hands with Phoebe and says to her) It's nice to meet you Emma.
Phoebe shakes her hand and says: Phoe-Be.
Amy: Oh. That's a funny noise.
(Monica and Amy turn away and walk into the living room towards the secret)
closet>
Joey: Pheebs, I still need some help here
Phoebe: Oh right, ok um. Ok so its not just the lie you tell. but its the
way you tell it. . For example if you look down at the ground when you're
talking, people know you're lying.
Joey: Oh.. I don't know why this is so hard for me. you know.. I mean lying
is basically just acting and I am a terrfic actor.
Phoebe looks down: You are a terrific actor.
Amy coming out of the bathroom: Hey. Hey where's the baby?
Rachel: Oh we just put her down for a nap.
Amy: Oh I was just thinking. You know what would be incredible? If you guys
died.
Ross first has a look of 'huh' then changes it to sarcastic happy: Thank you
Amy.
Amy: no, no, then I would get the baby. I mean you know it would be just
like a movie. Like at first I wouldn't know what to do with her, then I
would rise to the occasion and and then I would get a makeover and then I'd
get married.
Phoebe: Thats a great movie.
Amy: Now listen, not that you guys could stop me or anything cause you know
you'd be dead. I was thinking about changing her name. I'm just not really a
big fan of Emily. [Transcriber note: I'm surprised that Rachel and Ross
didn't say they weren't either here]
Ross: Emma.
Amy turns around to Phoebe: Emma, Ross wants you.
Phoebe: PHOE-BE.
Amy turns to Ross and Rachel: Why does she keep making that noise?
Rachel: Honey, I don't know how to tell you this, but um, if something were
to happen to Ross or to myself
wouldn't get the baby.
Amy: Well who would?
Ross: Well we haven't offically asked them yet, but we would want Monica and
Chandler.
Chandler: I can't believe you'd want us to raise Emma.
Monica: yeah oh my god, I'm so moved.
Amy: I don't believe this, hold on a second. You guys die and I don't get
your baby?
Rachel: See look Amy, we're a lot closer to Monica and Chandler. We see them
every day. And truthfully honey, you don't seem very connected to the baby.
Amy: Connected? I mean.. to what? She's.. she's a lump.
Chandler: You know, guys I got to say. This means so much to me. That you
would trust me with your child. I mean, we all know that Monica and I have
been trying to have a baby of our own. You know I've had my doubts about my
skills as a father, but that you two.. that you two....
Amy:
Later in the day.
Monica: Okay! It's time for dinner. Everyone we're using our fancy china..
um and its very expensive so please be careful.
Ross starts playing with a plate: Woah. Woah... nearly really drops the plate and more seriously) Woah.
Monica: Okay, just to be clear comedy with the plates will not be well
recieved.
Ross makes some sort of sound to let us know it hurt.
Joey: Hey! How come my plate's less fancy then everyone else's? Do you not
trust me with a fancy plate?
Monica: No, honey, its. thats a special plate. See its a game, whoever gets
that plate wins.
Joey: I can't believe I won.
Amy: Its such a slap in the face. I'm your sister and you would give your
baby to these strangers over me.
Rachel: Monica is Ross' sister.
Amy: No, Ross' sister was really fat.
Monica: That was me.
Amy: No, she was this really dorky girl in high school that used to follow
Rachel around like a puppy dog.
Rachel: Hey. Amy. You've got to stop doing that.
(Amy gets pissed and starts cutting food on the fancy plate very harshly, you can hear the silveware scraping the fancy plate)
Monica about to have a heart attack: Okay, listen I know you're having a
little bit of a family crisis, but you don't have to take it out on the
plates. I mean, I mean in fact I think that everyone should cut their food like this.
(Monica holds a turkey leg up in the air over the plate trying to cut meat off with a knife)
Monica: Now see, this way you protect the plate.. and lets face it you have
fun.
Amy: Okay, how about this, you guys die and the crazy plate lady dies, then
do I get the baby?
Chandler: No, if crazy plate lad..
If Monica dies then I would get Emma, Right?
(Ross and Rachel pause and ponder this)
Rachel: Well actually...
Chandler: Actually what?
Ross: well.. its just. its just in that case, then um. Emma would go to my
parents.
Chandler: What?
Amy: Hurts, doesn't it?
Joey raises his hand: Uh.. who has to die for me to get her?
(Everyone is looking around and at Joey with looks of 'what?' on their faces)
Commercial Break.
Chandler: So if Monica's not around, then I'm not good enough to raise Emma?
Ross looks down: No, that that is not what we're saying.
Joey: Yeah he's lying. He looked down.
Chandler: Well what is wrong with me? Am I .. am I incomptent? Because I
managed to survive whatever it is that killed the three of you!
Rachel: Honey, you're taking this the wrong way. We think you're going to be
a wonderful parent. It's just.. you're more the fun parent.
Ross: Yeah and we'd want to make sure Emma has someone like Monica who is
more uh. uh discliplinarin.. someone who can be firm and strict.
Monica: Thats not how you see me, is it?
Phoebe while cutting a sweet potatoe in the air: No you're all about the
fun.
Chandler: Look, I may not know a lot about babies, but do you really think
I'm not capable?
Ross: No, you both are equally capable. Its just.. you're strongest when..
when you're together.
Chandler: Ok. So if we both had Emma and I die
to give her up.
Ross: Sure, Monica would have to give her up.
Joey: I lie better then that, right?
Chandler: So.. let me get this straight. So my two friends die, I get Emma.
Then my wife dies, then Emma the one tiny ray of hope left in my life gets
taken away from me?
Phoebe: There's your movie!
Later on.
Monica opens her front door. Chandler is sitting in the hallway.
Monica: Hey. There you are. You disappeared after dinner.
Chandler: Oh? Did somebody miss me? Is there a child to raise poorly?
Monica: Ross and Rachel don't know what they're talking about. I mean its
not like their so responsible. Emma is a product of a bottle of Merlot and a
five year old condom.
Chandler: Yeah but they're right. I mean, I'm not a strong father figure and
I never will be.
Monica: No you learn these things. You grow into it.
Chandler: Yeah, but its not who I am. Everything they said was exaclty why I
was worried about having a kid. And its true. And look everybody knows it.
Monica: I don't know it! I want to have a kid with you because I think
you're going to be an amazing dad... at the fun parts and the hard parts.
Chandler: Oh yeah, well can you picture me saying "Go to your room! You're
grounded"?
Monica: Can you hear me say "You're grounded"?
Chandler: You said that to me last week.
Monica: How hard is it? No shoes on the furniture.
Back to Monica and Chandler's apartment.
Amy is sitting on a chair by the bay window looking mad.
Joey groans and gets off the phone: The producer from Days left a message on
my machine asking why I wasn't at the parade. They said everybody's pissed
off at me..
Phoebe: It's ok. I thought of the perfect lie for you. It's easy to remember
and doesn't invite a lot of questions. You weren't at the parade because you
had a family emergency.
Joey: Oh, I like that, yeah. Wasn't at the parade because I had a family
emergency.
Phoebe: Ooh, what happened?
Joey all nervous and looking down and fiddling with his ear: Oh.. My
sister's raccoon.
Phoebe: No! Nothing with a raccoon.
Joey: Arg... Alright, I'll take care of it.
Monica and Chandler come through the front door.
Monica: Oh wait.. What are you doing?
Joey: Setting the table.
Phoebe: Yeah we thought it would be nice to use the fancy china for dessert
too.
Monica: Oh how nice. Maybe later we can all go blow our noses on my wedding
dress.
Ross comes out of the guest bedroom with the diaper bag and the car seat
carrying thingy.. yeah.. thats the techinal term.. He goes to Chandler.
Ross: Hey dude, you okay? Sorry about before.
Chandler: Oh no thats okay, you're totally right. I don't know anything
about disciplining a child. But it did hurt my feelings and I want you to
know that when I die, you don't get Joey.
Ross walks away with a face of yeah ok.
Amy walks over to the couch and sits down next to Rachel: Ucch.
Uchh
Rachel: UCHH!
Amy: You know.. this.. this is classic Rachel.
Rachel: Yeah.. yeah right.. Remember in high school when I died and didn't
give you my baby?
Amy: This might be my one chance to have a baby Rachel. I mean, you know
that I have been so busy focusing on my carrer.
Rachel: What? What carrer?
Amy: Um.. I'm a decorator.
Rachel: Ok. You decorate dad's office and so now you're a decorator. Okay! I
went to the zoo yesterday and now I'm a koala bear.
Amy: Why can't you ever be supportive?
Rachel: Sup.. You want to talk supportive? You didn't even come and visit me
when I was in the hospital having the baby.
Amy: Oh. Yeah. Well.. You didn't come see me when I was in the hospital when
I was getting my lips done.
Rachel: I did the first time! Oh. Oh..
And you know what. You want to know why I'm not giving Emily to you.
Ross: Emma.
Rachel turns to Ross: Oh whose side are you on?
you Emma because there is no way you could handle the responibility of a
child.
Amy: How hard could it be? You do it.
Joey: ooh oooh..
Amy: Do you want to know why you don't want me to have the baby?
Rachel: uh huh.
Amy: Because you don't want me to be happy. You.. you have always been
jealous of me.
Rachel: Jealous of what? Of your lack of responsiblity? You, your
immaturity? Your total disregard of other people's feelings?
Amy: Uh.. To name a few. You know.. You know.. You've just always been like
this. You just have to have everything. And I couldn't have anything. Like
in junior high, when you stole Timmy from me. I mean, do you even realize
how much that hurt me?
Rachel: Timmy was my boyfriend and you made out with him!
Amy: Oh come on, that was 20 years ago. Get over it.
Rachel: I cannot, I cannot believe that I invited you here today.
Amy: Yeah, well you know what I cannot believe. That my so-called sister,
gets a 30% discount from Ralph Lauren and I still have to pay retail.
Rachel: ah ha ha. ah ha ha.
Amy: You bitch. You just think you're so perfect. With your new baby and
your, your small apartment. (directs this to Ross who in turns throws the towel in his hand down on the table) Well let me tell you something. Your
baby isn't even that cute.
Ross walks over: Too far, Amy. Too far.
Rachel: You take that back.
Amy: No.
Rachel: Take it back!
Amy: No! What are you going to do? Make me?
Rachel: Heey man, I work out.
Amy: So do I.
Rachel: I do pilates.
Amy: I do yoga.
Rachel: Bring it on!
(Amy pushes Rachel and Monica goes berserk and runs around the table)
Monica: Put the plates in the boxes!! Put the plates in the boxes!
Rachel: Did you just push me?
Amy: Uh, yeah I think I did.
Rachel: Alright. Thats it!
Monica screaming at Ross: Forget the bubblewrap! There isn't time!
(Rachel and Amy 'fighting'.. They're really just trying to slap each other and just keep slapping their hands)
Rachel starts messing up Amy's hair: Frizzy frizzy frizzy frizzy!!
Phoebe: Oh my god! Shouldn't we stop this?
Joey: What? Are you out of your mind? Lets throw some jello on them.
(Amy starts spitting on Rachel's hand and Rachel is saying ew and pushes her away
Rachel: Ew! Gross.
(Amy runs towards Rachel and Rachel puts her arm out, hand on Amy's head and
Amy starts trying to hit her but is missing, Rachel is moving backwards
towards the table when her hand swipes the one plate left on the table on to
the floor>
(Everyone is shocked and Monica faints and Ross catches her)
Chandler: Alright! That is it. This is our apartment and you can not behave
this way. Now if you can't act your age then you shouldn't be here at all.
Now those plates may not be as nice as the pretty pink ones I picked out,
but they're very important to Monica. I want you to apologize to her right
now.
Amy: I'm sorry.
Rachel: Mon, I'm so sorry.
Chandler: Okay. Thats better. Now I want you to both apologize to each other
and mean it.
Amy and Rachel at same time: Sorry.
Chandler: By the way, that fight was totally arousing.
Ross: Dude. Well done. You know what? If I die, and Rachel dies and Monica
dies then you can totally take care of Emma.
Chandler: Oh yeah? Well thanks.
Ross: So, so now do I get Joey?
Chandler: Okay, but you should know he eats five times a day and shoves
pennies up his nose.
Rachel: Are you okay Mon?
Monica: uh huh.. I mean these things happen. Its' just a plate. Its not like
somebody died.
Phoebe: It's all right. You can mourn.
Monica starts crying: Thank you. It was so beautiful. (gets up and walks towards the front door) I'm going to go to Joeys and get the pies.
Joey: Actually its not pies, its just pie.
Monica: I don't care.
to scold.
Rachel: Look Amy, it got a little of control..Um.. and I'm sorry. You're my
sister and uh.. if it really means that much to you..
Amy: So you're going to give me the baby?
Rachel: Uh. No.. I was going to let you use my Ralph Lauren discount.
Amy starting to cry: You are not going to regret this.
(they hug and Rachel has this disgusted look on her face and then Emma starts crying)
Rachel: She needs changing.
Chandler: Oh no no no.. I'll get her. I'm super-compentent and totally
responsibile and fourth in line to raise Emma. I'll be right there Emma.
Just let me get my trusty diaper bag here.
Well.. what do you know? I guess, I'll be the one who dies first.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
[Scene: Chandler is packing the broken china in its box. He's taping up the
top of box so thoroughly, there isn't an inch of cardboard which isn't
covered in tape. He is struggling with the tape dispenser.]
Phoebe: Hey, does Monica know about her broken plates yet?
Chandler: Nope...
Phoebe: Broke them all, huh?
Chandler: Yep...
Phoebe: You gonna tell her?
Chandler: Nope... (Monica walks in) Hey... so I'm gonna... put the plates
back. You know, I think you were right, I don't think we should use these
plates again for a looong time.
Monica: Like only if the queen comes?
Chandler: Maybe not even then. (Joey walks in)
Joey: Hey! I did it. I called my producer. I told him I had a family
emergency, he totally bought it. Thanks for teaching me how to lie Pheebs.
Phoebe: No problem! Next week: stealing... (Chandler walks away to store the
box of broken china.)
Monica: Bye plates!
Joey: Oh, you told her you broke all the plates, huh? (Chandler walks back,
looking angrily at Joey)
Monica: What? Something happened with the plates?
Joey: Uhm... (looks down) Yeah... this uhm... raccoon came in...
