[SCENE: Chandler walks into Central Perk, Joey is sitting on the couch]

CHANDLER: Hey!

JOEY: Hey!

[Chandler sits down on the couch and put his legs on the table]

JOEY: Where’s Monica?

CHANDLER: Oh she’s at home putting up decoration for Rachel’s birthday party tonight.

JOEY: And you are not helping?

CHANDLER: I try, but…apparently singing “I will survive” in a helium voice, not helping.

[Ross, Rachel, Emma and Molly come in]

ROSS: Hey you guys!

JOEY: Hey!

JOEY and CHANDLER: (starts to sing) Happy…birth…

RACHEL: Shhhh…don’t say that loud, Gunther gonna wants to hug me…(Chandler and Joey nod in agreement)

ROSS: Err…Good news everyone, we finally found a nanny. (Point to Molly)This is Molly. Molly, (point to Chandler) Chandler, (point to Joey) Joey.

MOLLY: Hi

JOEY and CHANDLER: Hi

[Emma starts crying]

ROSS: (looking at Emma) Oop, somebody get a little fussy.

JOEY: You damn right I am. I’ve been waiting for cookies for 7 minutes!

[Rachel looks worriedly at Emma]

RACHEL: Ok. You know what, I just gonna take her outside.

MOLLY: You stay, I will do it (taking Emma from Rachel). (Turn to Joey and Chandler) Nice to meet you guys.

CHANDLER and JOEY: Nice to meet you too.

[Molly walks outside]

RACHEL: Wow, Molly is just great!

ROSS: Yeah

CHANDLER: Yes, bravo on the HOT nanny.

RACHEL: What? You really think she is hot?

CHANDLER: Are you kidding? If I wasn’t married, she would be rejecting me right now.

RACHEL: Joey?

JOEY: (Looking at Molly outside)How do you think she’s doing?

RACHEL: Am I the only one that doesn’t think she is hot? Ross?

ROSS: Nehh!...I mean she’s not unattractive but…hot(making his face, as if saying “no”)

RACHEL: Thank you.

[Rachel walks to buy coffee. Ross sits down with Joey and Chandler]

CHANDLER: Now that Rachel’s gone?

ROSS: So hot, I cried myself to sleep last night.

[Chandler and Joey look at each other and start clapping and nodding]


[Opening Credits]


[SCENE: Phoebe’s House. Mike and Phoebe]

[Mike was preparing food. Phoebe was doing a quiz.]

PHOEBE: Hey Mike, what is the capital of Peru?

MIKE: Lima

PHOEBE: No. Hmm...It starts with a V and end with an X. Hopefully with a TO in the middle.

MIKE: You know, come to think of it, the capital of Peru is Vatox. (Phoebe smiles and starts writing the answer down.

[Mike opened a shelf of the cupboard. He saw something and backs off]

MIKE: Oh god…ok, I don’t wanna…freak you out or anything but I think I just saw a rat in your cupboard.

PHOEBE: (looks relieved) Oh, yeah I know. That’s Bob.

MIKE: HE...HE…your pet rat?

PHOEBE: Well not so much a pet, as, you know, an occasionally visitor who I put food out for…you know…kinda like Santa…except Santa doesn’t poof on a plate of cookies.

MIKE: You can’t keep a rat in your apartment! They are extremely unsanitary. I mean they transmit lacto-spirosis and hanta virus..

PHOEBE: What are those?

MIKE: I don’t know. But they don’t sound like spa treatment. You have to get rid of it.

PHOEBE: Ok fine. If it means that much to you, I’ll get rid of Bob.

MIKE: Thanks you(Putting crackers into mouth).

PHOEBE: So weird. You think he’s so gross yet you’re willing to eat his crackers. [Mike desperately tries to get rid of crackers in his mouth. His uses his hand to clean his tongue.]


[SCENE: Rachel’s office]

[Rachel walked in. Gavin was sitting on the chair]

RACHEL: Hello

GAVIN: Hello

RACHEL: Gavin, I just want to say thanks you again for watching Emma yesterday during the presentation. I really owe you an apology.

GAVIN: For what?

RACHEL: Well when we first met, you know I thought you were pompous and arrogant and obnoxious.

GAVIN: Is this your first apology?

RACHEL: No I just mean that you know, first impression don’t mean anything. And I think you are a really good guy. And I’m sorry that I misjudge you.

[Rachel’s colleague, Heather, came in to put a document on the table.]

Heather: Morning

RACHEL: Hey (turning around to place her documents)

RACHEL: You know what, hey, new day, new leave, I am just really really happy(she turned around to see Gaving looking at Heather’s butt.)…I’m sorry. Obviously Heather’s ass has something more important to say so I will just wait till it’s finish.

GAVIN: What?

RACHEL: I was giving you an apology and you were totally checking her out.

GAVIN: I wasn’t checking her out. I’m in fashion, I was looking at her skirt. Or was it pants… I didn’t really see what really happened below the ass area.

RACHEL: Ow, you are really, really a creep.

RACHEL: Why do you even care if I was looking at her? Are you jealous?

RACHEL: Oh yeah! (sarcastic) I’m jealous. Oh Gavin, Please, please look at my ass.

[Gavin sits up straight to look at her ass]

RACHEL: STOP LOOKING AT MY ASS.

[Gavin turns around, smiling]

RACHEL: I mean I just think you are totally inappropriate, ok. This is a working environment. She is your subordinate

GAVIN: But it’s ok when you sleep with your old assistant Tag?

RACHEL: That is totally different for two reasons. One. I didn’t know that you knew that… And two, I wasn’t some creep staring at his ass. We had a…we had a deep, meaningful relationship.

GAVIN: Huh? What’s Tag’s last name?

RACHEL: It was…(staring at the air, thinking)…Oh my god…He didn’t…he didn’t have a last name. It was just…just Tag. You know, like Cher, or you know…Moses.

GAVIN: But it was a deep meaningful relationship?
RACHEL: Oh, you know what? My first impression of you was absolutely right. You are arrogant. You are pompous. MORGAN. Morgan. Tag’s last name was Morgan. Hah!

GAVIN: It was Jones.

RACHEL: (turned around, looking angry, mumbling) oh what are you his boyfriend...


[SCENE: Central Perk. Joey and Molly are talking near the counter. Ross, Chandler and Monica are sitting on the couch]

JOEY: Man, I wish I had a nanny like you.

MOLLY: You mean when you were a baby?

JOEY: sure!

[Camera turns to Ross, Chandler and Monica]

MONICA: Would you stop staring at her?

CHANDLER: (Staring at Molly) I wasn’t staring. I was leering.

MONICA: What’s the big deal with her? Maybe she’s attractive in an obvious kind of way.

ROSS: Yeah, obvious beauty is the worst. You know, when it’s right there in your face. Me, I like I have to work to find someone attractive, makes me feel like I earned it.

CHANDLER: So Joey is doing alright with her (Ross quickly turns to see).

MONICA: Yeah. Hey that’s was nice to see you guys back off and let Joey get the girl for once.

MOLLY: (Walking toward them) I’m gonna take her back to the apartment.

ROSS: Ok. I will be home right after work. Ok. Bye EmmaEmmaEma. I lovedadylove you. (Ross kisses Emma.)

MONICA: They would like me to talk to you about the baby-talk. (Waving her finger)It’s not so good.

MOLLY: I think it’s sweet. (She walks out)

[CHANDLER, JOEY and ROSS made noise, can be heard as Emma mix with Molly and mamuma]

ROSS: Hey listen. Joey. About Molly. I would really prefer if you didn’t go after her.

JOEY: Why not?

ROSS: Because it’s took us MONTHS to find a good nanny. And I wouldn’t want anything to, you know, drive her away.

JOEY: So, what? You think I’m just gonna sleep with her and never call her again and things are gonna get uncomfortable? (Expression changed from confused to ‘enlightened’) yeah that sounds about right…

ROSS: Come on. There are plenty of women out there, ok. Just...just forget about her…ok? She’s off limits.

JOEY: Owww man…why you had to go and said that for? Now that you told me I cant have her, makes me want her even more!

ROSS: What are you a child?

JOEY: YESSS!

ROSS: Look. Joey, come on. Now, for me. Please, just try to focus your sexual energy on someone else.

JOEY: Alright.

[Joey looked around for women. Finally his eyes falls on Monica.]

[Monica looked up and saw Joey and raised her eyebrows]

[She turned her head.]

MONICA: Take me home!

[Chandler sat up quickly and pulled her from the couch.]

[SCENE: Phoebe’s apartment.]

[Phoebe just came in. Mike was doing something on the table.]

PHOEBE: Hey Mikey.

MIKE: Hey Phoeb

PHOEBE: What are you doing?

MIKE: Setting Rat Traps.

PHOEBE: To kill Bob?

MIKE: NO. No. To test his neck strength.

PHOEBE:: But no, Mike, I don’t want to kill him. I thought we were just gonna capture him and, you know set him free in the countryside, where you can may be meet, you know, a friendly possum and a wise cracking owl.

MIKE: Ok, ok. I will throw away the traps.

PHOEBE: ok, I will find Bob. I will get him. (Calling for Bob) BOB! BOB ROBERT!)

[She opened a lower shelf]

PHOEBE: Oh wait. I think I hear him.

[She pulls out a bottle and gasp]

PHOEBE: Oh my god…Bob had babies…Bob is a mom.

MIKE: What do you think is the new name for her?

PHOEBE: Oh I don’t know. I kinda like Bob for a girl.

MIKE: I know, I mean we (a release of the trap is heard. They look up.)

PHOEBE: Oh my god, you killed Bob?

MIKE: May be it’s was Bob. May be it’s was a mouse.

PHOEBE: (She calls out loudly)Suzie? (She got up to see what it is.)


[SCENE: Chandler’s apartment]

[Ross opens the door and walks in.]

ROSS: Whaaat’sss uupppp?

CHANDLER: (Standing up) Seriously dude, three years ago.

ROSS: Listen, can you do me a favour? I’m gonna be out today. Can you just keep an eye on Joey? Make sure nothing happens between him and Molly?

CHANDLER: You don’t trust him?

ROSS: What? No. Some woman who sounded a lot like Joey called earlier and asked for her daughter, err… the HOT NANNY.

CHANDLER: Is this really your long term plan for me to run interference? Because I can get a job any day now. (He sit down and put his legs on the table.)

ROSS: You do appear right on the *** something . Oh come one. I’m sure he will lose interest in a week or two. But for now, can you please just do this for me?

CHANDLER: Alright, fine. But don’t blame me if it doesn’t work cause you know as well as I do, once Joey sets his mind on something, more often than not, he’s going to have sex with it.

ROSS: Well, well I mean we got to do something, ok? Nanny's like her doesn’t grow on trees.

CHANDLER: Picturing that tree?

ROSS: Oh yeah.


[SCENE: Joey and Chandler’s doorway]

[Joeys walks out of his house.]

[Chandler runs from inside of his house and stops right in front of Joey.]

[Joey stumbles and falls backward.]

CHANDLER: Where are you going Joe?

JOEY: For a walk.

CHANDLER: Oh, you mind if I join you?

JOEY: Actually, er, I would rather to be alone. You know I really need to…organize my thoughts.

CHANDLER: Your thoughts? Plural?

JOEY: Alright, fine. I only have one thought. It’s about the hot nanny. I've got to see her.

CHANDLER: I’m afraid I can’t let you do that Joe.

JOEY: Now you’re telling me I can’t see her? You guys are killing me. She’s a forbidden fruit. It’s like, like, she’s the princess and I’m the stable boy (Chandler looked irritated). Why are you doing this, huh? Did Ross tell you not to let me to go over there?

CHANDLER: Yes, as a matter of fact, he did. So I can’t let you go.

JOEY: Huh? Interesting. Now there are obstacles. Hot nanny and me against the world. This is the kind of stuff great novels are made of.

CHANDLER: Great novels?

JOEY: Fine. Mediocre porn!


[SCENE: Rachel’s office]

[Rachel and Gavin are doing work]

[Phone rings and Gavin picks up]

GAVIN: Gavin Mitchell’s Office

[Rachel interrupts]

RACHEL: Rachel Greene’s Office. Give me the phone.

[Gavin hands over the phone.]

RACHEL: Hello, this is Rachel Greene. How can I help you? Uh- huh. OK then. I’ll pass you back to your son. (She hands back the phone)

GAVIN: Hey mom. No, that’s just my secretary. (Rachel is irritated)

RACHEL: Hmm. Excuse me Gavin. I have a question I need to ask you.

GAVIN: Mom I will call you later (he hangs up the phone). Yes?

RACHEL: If you like looking at butt so much, why don’t you just go look at a mirror?

GAVIN: Thank god, you finally said that. I saw you made a note on your pad three hours ago (Rachel sighs and crumples her notepad). Man, I really bug you, don’t i?

RACHEL: Oh no, please I don’t care enogh about you to bug me. In fact, from now on, I’m going to take the high road. And I’m going to be very, very nice to you. You're mama’s boy starting right now.

[There are knocks on the doors]

[Monica came in]

MONICA: Hey Rach.

RACHEL: Hi.

MONICA: You’re ready for your birthday lunch?

RACHEL: I am. Oh but first, Monica, I would like to introduce you to my very talented colleague and more importantly my wonderful friend, Gavin Mitchell.

GAVIN: Please to meet you. (They shake hands)

MONICA: Please to meet you. So you’re coming to Rachel’s party today?

RACHEL: Oh no no no no. Gavin, cant. He’s already has plans. Mostly likely with his mother.

GAVIN: Oh I don’t mind. I will cancel it. I will never miss my secretary’s birthday.

(He walks out)

RACHEL: Why did you invite him? I can’t stand that guy.

MONICA: You're just being so nice to him.

RACHEL: I was faking it. Can’t you tell when I’m being fake?

[A boss walks pass her office]

RACHEL: Hey Mr Phillip, nice suit.

MONICA: Right there. (Pointing her finger at Rachel) That was so fake.

RACHEL: SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh.


[SCENE: Monica’s apartment. Having party. Quite a number of people there.]

RACHEL: Still can’t believe you invited Gavin. He is just the last person I want to see.

MONICA: Welcome for the party. I’m glad you’re having a good time.

RACHEL: God I hope he doesn’t show up. Of course he’s not going to show. That guy hates me.

MONICA: Does he?

RACHEL: What?

MONICA: May be if he bothers you so much, because he likes you. It was like in first grade when Skippy Lang would always push me on the playground because he secretly had a crush on me.

RACHEL: Oh Monica. You think Skippy liked you? Honey all those boys had a fantasy if they can knock you over.

[Molly comes forward]

MOLLY: She’s out. I’m gonna take her home.

RACHEL: Oo, ok. Thanks you. (Molly walks out)

RACHEL: Do you see what all the guys see in her?

MONICA: Wouldn’t get her out of bed. No more vodka for me.

[Joey comes]

JOEY: Hey Rach. So can I sing happy birthday to you now?

RACHEL: Yes, sure.

JOEY: Alllright. Happy…birth (he saw Molly opens the door. So he follows).See you later.

MONICA: Hey Rach, somebody got you a shoes.

RACHEL: Oh give me. (She opens the box)Wow…Argggg(She throws the box away) My god….

PHOEBE: Careful. Theses are my rat babies.

[Rachel is shock]

MIKE: Yep. We have rat babies now.

RACHEL: Grrr, you brought rats to my birthday party?

MONICA: (Sitting up straight, looks like paralysed) So this what a stroke feels like.

PHOEBE: I had to bring them. We killed their mother. They are our responsibilities now. You know they require constant care. You should that Rachel, you’re a mother.

RACHEL: You’re comparing my daughter to a rat?

PHOEBE: No. Seven rats. (Turns to Mike) I think we should take them home. We need to feed them.

RACHEL: What? You are going to leave my party to take care of a box of rats?

PHOEBE: I’m sorry Rachel. But I’m not like you, ok? Not everyone could afford help.

[Mike and Phoebe walk out]

[Camera shows the toilet’s door. Ross comes out of it.]

ROSS: (To chandler) Hey. Where the hell is Joey and Molly? I asked you to watch them.

CHANDLER: (In helium voice) I’m sorry. I got a little preoccupied.

ROSS: Look. We have to stop them, before something happenes.

CHANDLER: (Helium voice) Right behind you big guy.

[They run out.]


[SCENE: Ross’ apartment]

[Joey and Molly are sitting on the couch]

JOEY: So you see Molly, what people don’t understand, is that acting, is a discipline. It takes a lot of hard work.

MOLLY: So where did you study?

JOEY: I didn’t go to college.

MOLLY: No, where did you study acting?

JOEY: Molly…people don’t study acting…

[Ross and Chandler come in]

[Joey sighs]

ROSS: Molly…er…do you mind giving us just a minute?

MOLLY: Sure. I will go and check on Emma. (She walks away)

JOEY: Will the stable boy never get the princess?

ROSS: So, what do you think you gonna do? Huh? Have sex with her right here on my couch?

JOEY: No. The leather sticks to my ass. You know, this isn’t fair. What make you think that I’m just gonna sleep with her and then blow her off? Huh? Can’t you guy open your mind to the possibilities that I actually like her? And I might want something real? (Ross and Chandler remain silent) .The truth is, I haven’t felt this way about anyone since Rachel. Ok. I didn’t think I could ever love again.

Ross and Chandler: Joey!Come on!

[Joey waves his hand]

[Knocks on the door]

[Ross goes to open the door and see a woman]

WOMAN: Is Molly here?

ROSS: Er, yea yeah. Come on in. Molly.

[Molly came out]

MOLLY: Oh hey…guys, this is Tabitha.

[She walks to Tabitha and they kiss]

MOLLY: I’ll see you tomorrow.

ROSS: Oh ok.

[The girls goes out]

[The camera shows the 3 of them stand still, speechless and shocked]

ROSS: Er…well, Joey, I guess, we have no problem.

JOEY: It’s like my favourite fairytale come true. The princess, the stable boy and the lesbian.

[SCENE: Phoebe’s apartment]

[They just come in]

PHOEBE: Okay, you start preparing the formula and I will start changing the box. And then we got to put them straight to bed.

MIKE: Hey, when do we become one of those couples whose lives revolve around their rats?

PHOEBE: Well, you know what? There are responsibility now.

MIKE: Okay fine. These rats are responsibility. What happen when they mate? There are a hundreds of them?

PHOEBE: Mate? They are all brothers and sisters.

MIKE: Err, not such a problem with rats. They’re more of “love the one you’re with” kind of animal.

PHOEBE: No. really? (She opened the box)Oh my god, get off your sister.

[Mike comes to sit beside her]

PHOEBE: oh my god, where are we gonna do? Then, we have seven rats.(Mike nods) So what if each of them has seven rats? And each of those has seven rats? That’s like… (Counting her fingers) that’s maths I cant even do. What are we gonna do?

MIKE: I know this is gonna sound crazy. But, we could, not let the box of rats ruin our lives.

PHOEBE: yeah, okay. I guess you are right. Alright, so we’ll just give them away. But to nice families. With children. And reduced-fat wheatbuns. Those are Bob's favourties.

MIKE: It’s gonna be okay.

PHOEBE: You think I’m crazy?

MIKE: No I think you are sweet.

PHOEBE: Good. It’s just so hard. It’s hard for me to let them go. I guess it’ll just bring back memories, you know, from, when I gave birth to my brother’s triplets and I have to give them up.

[Mike is really shocked. Phoebe smiles guiltily]

PHOEBE: I haven’t told you about that yet, have i?

[SCENE: Rachel stands at Monica’s balcony alone]

[Monica sees her]

MONICA: Hey

RACHEL: Hi. Thanks for the party honey. So I help you clean up?

MONICA: No way. You had your party, now I have mine.

[Rachel looks grim]

MONICA: Is everything alright?

RACHEL: Yah. I just feel a little bummed that my birthday is over.

MONICA: Well, at least you have one thing to be happy about. That jerk Gavin from your office didn’t show up.

RACHEL: Yahh(nodding)

[Gavin came from behind]

GAVIN: Yeah, I hate him.

MONICA: We weren’t talking about you. Nope. No way to recover. (She goes back inside)

GAVIN: Fun party.

RACHEL: Well, it was. And you would have seen it if you didn’t show up at (Rachel lifts Gavin’s hand to see the time) nine thirty! Oh God! This party was lame!

[Monica heard it from inside]

MONICA: Again, you’re welcome.

GAVIN: Look. I’ll just give you this and go.

RACHEL: Oh, you brought me a present. Why?

GAVIN: Let’s me explain how a birthday parties usually work. There are presents. And the cake. Perhap a four or a fifth person. Okay. I got you the present to make up for being such a jerk to you.

RACHEL: Oh, well okay. Well that’s very nice. And you wrote a card. (She reads the card) From Gavin.

GAVIN: I really mean it.

[She opens and pull out a pashmina.]

RACHEL: Oh that’s beautiful.

[Gavin takes the robe]

GAVIN: You don’t mind? (Signaling that he will put the robe on Rachel)

RACHEL: No.

[He put it on her]

GAVIN: Well, what do you know. It fits.

RACHEL: See, Gavin. You are capable of being a nice guy. Why did you give me such a hard time?

GAVIN: I’m not sure.

RACHEL: Well Monica seems to think that it’s because you have feelings for me.
s
GAVIN: I do have feelings for you.

[Rachel is shock]

RACHEL: You do?

GAVIN: Yes, I feel that you are a little annoying.

RACHEL: See why? Gavin, Why? Right about when I want to change my opinion of you, you go and (Gavin pull her and kiss her). And you do that. (Rachel initiates the kiss this time.)

[The camera then reveals that Ross is watching. He is holding 2 dinosaur toys. He looks really hurt. He steps back a few steps, looks at the toys, then goes into his room.]

 

[Ending Credit]

 

[SCENE: Chandler’s apartment.]

[Chandler is singing, in a low girlish voice(helium)]

CHANDLER: “First I was afraid, I was petrified.” (He stops and laughs at himself.)

[Phoebe comes in]

PHOEBE: Hey

CHANDLER: Hey

PHOEBE: I think I left something here.

CHANDLER: Oo, oh well, somebody left this.

[He goes to pick up a sweater]

CHANDLER: Is this yours?

PHOEBE: No but I like it (putting it on).No. I think I left one of my rat babies.

CHANDLER: Oh, I haven’t seen it. But if I do, well I’ll let you know.

[Monica can be heard shouting]

MONICA: Arrgggg, Rat baby, rat baby, rat baby!!! (She runs onto the couch.)

PHOEBE: Oh may be that’s him.

End.
