Friends Season 5 Episodes

Phoebe is irked by all the fun she missed in London; the others decide to take her on a picnic to Central Park, but since that idea sucks they plan a weekend in Atlantic City; just as they\’re leaving, her water breaks. Rachel, back from Greece and angry about the bad choices she\’s made recently, gives decision making control of her love-life to Monica. This arrangement is strained to the breaking point when Rachel wants to tell Ross she still loves him, but Monica won\’t let her. Ross plans to win back Emily by sending romantic gifts.

The One Where Phoebe Hates PBS: Rachel catches Monica waiting seductively in her bedroom for Chandler; to cover, Monica tells Rachel she\’s seeing a guy from work. Monica tells Rachel that her new boyfriend is the best sex she\’s ever had, and when Chandler hears this he gets a little too proud of himself. Ross finally gets Emily on the phone and they begin planning to work things out; Emily agrees to come to New York but only if Ross doesn\’t see Rachel anymore. After much agonizing, Ross agrees. Joey gets involved with a PBS pledge drive, believing he\’s the host; but he\’s only a phone jockey and not even on camera. Phoebe reveals her hatred for PBS, which started because she never got an answer to a letter she wrote to Sesame Street after her mom died. Joey and Phoebe argue about whether any truly selfless good deeds exist, so Phoebe tries repeatedly to find one.

The One With All The Thanksgivings: After Thanksgiving dinner at Monica\’s, the gang tells stories about their worst Thanksgivings ever. In a series of flashbacks, we see Chandler learning of his parent\’s divorce (1978); Phoebe losing an arm (twice) in past lives (1862 and\’15); Joey with his head in a turkey (1992); Chandler hurting Monica\’s feelings (1987); and Monica getting a little more revenge than she planned, when Chandler loses a toe (1988).

The One With The Inappropriate Sister: Because of his boredom while away from work, Ross offers to help Joey focus on writing a movie. Things get a little tense, however, when Ross wants Joey to work and Chandler wants to play \’Fireball.\’ Phoebe volunteers to collect Christmas donations for the poor, but ends up getting a bucket full of unwanted \’contributions,\’ so she gets tough with the donors. Monica arranges for Rachel and Danny to go out. It seems to be going very well until Rachel discovers that Danny has an unusually close relationship with his sister, Krista.

The One With Joey\’s Bag: Chandler finds out Monica gives terrible massages but doesn\’t want to tell her. When the truth comes out, Monica has a hard time accepting it. Joey is auditioning for a sophisticated part in a play, so Rachel offers to help him look the part. She outfits him at Bloomingdales, and part of the ensemble is a \”man\’s bag,\” which bears a striking resemblence to a purse. Unfortunately, Joey\’s devotion to the bag ends up costing him the audition. Phoebe\’s grandmother dies; Ursula, who thought grandma was already dead, skips the memorial. The memorial does have one unexpected guest, however–Phoebe\’s father. Without revealing her true identify, she arranges to meet with him later, at which time she reveals the truth… but things are still a little awkward.

The One With The Cop: Joey has a dream that Monica is his girlfriend; Monica tells him it just means he wants a relationship with the closeness that he sees between herself and Chandler. She suggests he try being friends with a woman before being intimate. After hitting on Rachel (unsuccessfully), Joey tries to make friends with new women; but they find his \”friends first\” approach so enticing that they want the intimacy immediately. Phoebe finds a police badge under a cushion at the coffee house. She plans to return it but has too much fun pretending to be a cop… until she pulls it on the actual owner of the badge. She drops the badge and runs away; he tracks her down and asks her on a date. Ross buys a new sofa (couch), but can\’t get it up the stairs to his apartment.

The One With The Ride-Along: Ross, Joey, and Chandler go on a ride-along with Gary; thinking a car back-fire is actually a gunshot, Joey dives and protects Ross from harm. Chandler is upset that Joey chose to protect Ross… until he learns that Joey was really trying to protect his sandwich. While getting Margarita fixings as Ross\’ apartment, Rachel overhears Emily–who is getting married the next day–leaving a message, wondering if their break-up was a mistake. Monica and Rachel debate about what to do, and Rachel accidentally erases the message. She stays and waits for Ross to return so she can tell him.

The One In Vegas, Part 2: Ross and Rachel arrive at the casino, where Rachel quickly learns she is \”a human doodle\”. The ink won\’t come off, so she and Ross spend the day hiding in the hotel room, raiding the mini-bar. Once they\’re completely drunk, Rachel finally agrees to go back down to the casino–after she draws on Ross\’ face. Phoebe, playing the slots, is plagued by a lurker: An elderly woman who follows her around, waiting for her to give up a machine that hasn\’t paid out, then takes over and hits the jackpot (a strategy with absolutely no basis in the laws of probability). She decides to out-lurk the lurker; but during a confrontation with her, Phoebe gets thrown out of the casino. Joey tries to persuade his identical hand twin that they should go into show business. He becomes such a nuisance that he gets thrown out, too. Chandler makes a scene to get Monica\’s attention. They make up, and Monica continues her winning streak playing craps. Chandler says if she rolls another hard eight, they\’ll get married. The dice bounce off the table and the roll is disqualified; one die shows a four, the other is on it\’s edge between four and five. Chander decides it\’s a four. They arrive at the wedding chapel and are waiting for the previous service to end, when the chapel doors fly open and out walk the drunken Ross and Rachel, newly married.
