[Chandler is freeze just smiling]

Phoebe: Oh…poor him the pregnancy thing is too much for him…

Monica: Chandler you can stop smiling now and saying something might be a good idea.

Chandler: Sorry it’s just that I’ve never realized how good would it feel to hear it from other people…

[Everyone hugs and some tears came out]

[SCENE: Central Perk: Rachel and Phoebe are sitting there]

Rachel: Gee…you know what have I just realized…

Phoebe: Mmm…that the coffee is way too hot…

Phoebe: Uhm….that Gunther should dye his hair?

Rachel: No...umh,,, honey, this is can be really long , so I’m just going to tell you ok…

Rachel: Ok, Pheebs, I just realized I am too far to be a mother, look you have had Frank’s babies, Ross has Ben , and now Monica and Chandler…when am I going to get there?!, well at least not with Tag…

Phoebe: Oh…just relax and wait maybe the ONE is closer than you think…

[Joey and Ross enters]

Joey: So Pheebs are you ready to go?

Phoebe: Ok let’s go

Ross: So, where are you guys going?

Phoebe: Oh, Joey is going to give me a tour through the set of “Days of our lives”

[they leave]

Ross: So, what do you think about Monica and her pregnancy

Rachel: Oh that’s what I call a HUGE notice…

Ross: Yeah…it brings me good memories of Ben when I first knew I was about to be a father, I guess Chandler is kind of freak out , but he is going to be ok…and how about you?

Rachel: What? What about me?

Ross: Oh…come on!, aren’t you a little bit depressed about the fact that Monica is going to be a mother and you are not?

Rachel: Uhm…maybe just a little.

Ross: Well , you know that anything you need, I’m here for you so you have that in mind ok?…so all you need to do is give me a call.

Rachel: Thanks…(looks to her clock) Oh…sorry I have to go…but it was nice

talking to you.

Ross: It was nice talking to you too.

[Scene: Outside the cinema Rachel and Tag are walking]

Rachel: Why are you so strange?

Tag: I’m not strange

Rachel: Yes, you are!

Tag: No I’m not. I’m as normal as always.

Rachel: Oh…I get it… you didn’t like me to be enthusiastic about my friend’s pregnancy, right?

Tag: Well maybe that had something to do here…

Rachel: Oh, what is SO wrong about being enthusiastic?!

Tag: That I’m not sure if I ever want to have children , I’m not good with children, or all that would come at a time… and that’s all! Ok!

Rachel: So, what are you saying that just because you don’t like kids I don’t have to?…(takes a deep breathe) I’ll see you on Monday morning…goodnight…(She turns and goes to her apartment, he just looks at her without knowing what to do)

[SCENE: Ross’ apartment, Rachel it’s outside knocking at the door]

Ross: Rach…what are you doing here? Are you ok?

Rachel: Ross, I’m sorry I didn’t knew what to do, I had this terrible fight with Tag ‘cause he is totally freaked out about thinking of pregnancy and kids…and I just didn’t knew who to talk with…(starts crying, Ross hugs her)

Ross: Come on in, we’ll talk ok?

Rachel: Ok… (They enter and they sit on the couch)

Ross: So what happened?

Rachel: He got mad because I liked the idea of Monica being pregnant and then he say he was not sure if he ever wanted to have kids…and…and…(keeps crying, so Ross hugs her again)

Ross: It’s going to be ok Rach…so he thinks that now…but I think that when the right time comes and you become a mom…you’ll be with the right guy

Rachel: But Ross, what am I going to do, I mean I’m almost 30 and apart from you I haven’t had any other serious relationships! What if “the one” never comes? What if he already did?

Ross: Rach, calm down ok? Its going to be ok…things are going to work out for you…I know it…

Rach: Thanks… (she lies her head on his shoulder, Ross hugs her)

[Scene: Monica and Chandler’s…they are on the table with a notepad.]

Monica: Can you believe that less than 8 months from now we are going to have a child?

Chandler: Pretty intense huh?

Monica: So…what do you think we should do first?

Chandler: Well, we already told the guys, so I think we have 2 more pairs of people to tell this…

Monica: Who our parents…yeah…I don’t want to…

Chandler: Come on! This is as freaky for you as it is for me…but do you see me break down? (she glares at him)…again?…no! that’s because I know I love you

Monica: OK, I’ll call them so that they can come here ok…we’ll tell them tomorrow…

Chandler: Ok…do it fast before I regret it ok?

Monica: (Dials the phone) Mom…hi…it’s Monica…hey listen I was wondering if you wanted to come over for lunch tomorrow ?…(listens)…yes mom…Im still engaged…(listens)no mom…(listens) NO…I haven’t put on weight the dress still fits…You know what…we’ll see you tomorrow…ok?

Joey: Actually you are the one who can decide that…

Phoebe: How come?

Joey: Well…Chandler and Monica are together and are having a baby, even Ross and Rachel got together…

Phoebe: Really, when?

Joey: Yesterday…but the point is that the only person I’ve ever felt so comfortable with is you…so would you like to go out with me sometime, and try to give me a chance?

Phoebe: (smiles while saying) You don’t need a chance…(She kisses him)

Joey: (Really surprised) Wow…

Phoebe: Ok, I was not going to tell you this, but the whole kissing scene from DOOL, Monica’s pregnancy, and pretty much everything…made my mind wonder who would be THE ONE for me…you know…the one that kisses you and makes you feel in heaven, the one that with a slight touch on your arm makes you feel…makes you feel…(Joey looks at her, and kisses her)

Joey: Like that??

Phoebe: Yeah…
