419 The One With All The Haste

The singing man, the bird smell, and the lack of space drive Rachel and Monica to new attempts to get their old apartment back. When they fail to bribe Chandler and Joey with season Knicks tickets, they try making another bet. But they lose again, so they have neither the tickets nor the apartment. However, while Joey and Chandler are at a game, Rachel and Monica switch apartments anyway. Chandler objects but Monica and Rachel offer to kiss each other for a full minute if they can keep the apartment. Ross gets an ear-ring. Phoebe tries to knit. Ross hates the fact that Emily has to be gone so much, so he considers asking her to move in with him. But he ends up asking her to marry him and she says yes. The gang is shocked to hear the news, especially Rachel.
