General Season 10 Spoilers:

We'll definitely see flirtation [between Rachel and Ross] -- remember that he makes a comment about what they can call their "next" baby. Source: Kristin on E!Online

I know Aisha Tyler is around until at least the sixth episode, dating Ross. He will run into an ex-boyfriend of hers who is extremely jealous. Rumor is they're casting a surrogate mom for this season. The studio and the network emphatically deny ... so as usual, the truth is somehwere in between. Who knows? Maybe Pheebs will step in again. Did I mention that Jennifer Coolidge (who's hilarious in Best In Show!) will play a not so friendly Brit and word is the suits at NBC are looking to cast a young surrogate mother for Monica and Chandler. Source: Kristin on E!Online

For the 4th episode taped... the title of the episode, which I am not confirming here, is a subplot but, I am CERTAIN will become a major plot ploy in the development of two characters on the show. There will be an incredibly touching scene between two characters. Ross will appear in a very funny and physical comedy scene. Something good happens to Phoebe. Source: Kristin on E!Online

According to FilmJerk.com sources, the married couple of “Friends”, Monica (Courtney Cox Arquette) and Chandler (Matthew Perry), is extremely likely to have a baby this season— through a surrogate mother. This is borne out by a casting document we were provided by the source, which is looking for the character. The birth mother is to be between the ages of 17 and 22, and the role will appear in at least two unspecified episodes filmed from October 13 to 17 and January 12 through 16, with possibly a couple of episodes in between. The producers are looking for the guest star to be great with comedy. The casting description is used by talent agents to find the right actress for the part, and casting directors are sure to be able to find a big name for the guest slot. In last season's episode 21, Monica and Chandler went in for a fertility test. They find out later that they both have fertility problems. For fans, this plotline is going to be sure to remind them of a past plotline, in which Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) agrees to be the surrogate mother of her half-brother and his wife’s babies.

We discover that Rachel and Joey do sleep together -- and their TV buddies all find out, thanks to some thin hotel walls in Barbados. The only ones who don't hear the "action" are Ross and Charlie -- because they are getting busy as well! The "Rachel-Ross-Joey" love triangle is also said to heat up during the season, as Rachel decides which friendly guy she ultimately wants to settle down with. In other more hair-inspired updates, Us reports that MONICA(Courteney Cox Arquette) returns with a new look -- cornrows! She and CHANDLER (Matthew Perry) also still have baby on the brain -- and start considering adoption. And PHOEBE (Lisa Kudrow) has man problems as well -- as she apparently decides whether to say "I do" to boyfriend MIKE (Paul Rudd). Source: Entertainment Tonight

Giovanni Ribisi is going to reprise his role as Phoebe's brother/surrogate baby's father in October. Also, a source tells me that Brad Pitt is interested in coming back for another Friendly romp, but no official talks yet. Source: Kristin on E!Online

Last things first: ''We don't know how it ends,'' swears exec producer Kevin S. Bright. ''We have not a clue.'' At least we can tell you how the farewell season begins, with Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) adjusting to life as a couple. Explains Bright, ''It's really focused on how do we make the transition from being friends into a relationship.'' Not too smoothly, we're guessing, considering LeBlanc's spin-off won't include Aniston. Christina Applegate will guest again as Rachel's selfish little sister, and Aisha Tyler and Paul Rudd continue to appear as love interests for Ross (David Schwimmer) and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow), respectively. Meanwhile, Monica (Courteney Cox Arquette) and Chandler (Matthew Perry) pursue the possibility of adoption. Finally, one mystery will be resolved. ''For the first time,'' says Bright, ''the rest of the Friends will actually know what Chandler does for a living.'' Could we BE any more excited? Source: Entertainment Weekly

Epsiode 10.1

FINAL SEASON PREMIERE 'FRIENDS' FINALLY CONNECT THE DOTS WITH ROSS, RACHEL AND JOEY ROMANTIC HOOKUPS -- In an episode that marks the Emmy-winning series' final season premiere, romantic hookups continue to go astray in Barbados as Monica (Courteney Cox Arquette), Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) and Chandler (Matthew Perry) overhear Ross (David Schwimmer) kissing Charlie (guest star Aisha Tyler, "Talk Soup") while on the room's other wall, they can also eavesdrop on Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) as they nuzzle. Elsewhere, Monica styles her hair like a puffed-up blowfish -- complete with attached seashells -- while Phoebe arrives back in Manhattan in time to meet boyfriend Mike (guest star Paul Rudd) to move forward with their rekindled romance.

Another one:

The early draft of the season 10 opener has been revealed and I would like to say I feel it is such an anticlimax. (But aren't all the season openers). After Joey goes into Rachel's room, they kiss and lie on the bed but then Rachel stops and says it doesn't feel right. Then the scene cuts to Ross saying the same thing to Charlie. There is no mention of either Ross & Rachel saying it doesn't feel right because they still have feelings for each other, it's just obvious that's the reason. I feel this season is going to be the worst because they have so many loose ends to tie up in 16 episodes. E.g. the writers have to get Ross & Rachel back together, Monica & Chandler have to go through the baby process. Phoebe has to get married to Mike and they have to prepare Joey for a spin off. So it's a lot to get done in 16 episodes. But we'll see, after seeing the plot of the first ep in season 10 it lacks originality and I feel the last season will too.

Another one:

First off, in the new TV Guide (the one with Jay Leno on the cover), there's a small article about Joey... when asked if the announcement of the show ruins the outcome of the Ross/Rachel/Joey triangle for season 10, the response (from NBC president Warren Littlefield, I believe; I didn't purchase the magazine) is "I don't think it will hurt the final year of Friends." It's vague, but this response seems to suggest that Joey does indeed spoil the outcome, but that it shouldn't affect ratings or hurt the entertainment value of the last season.

Also, I'm surprised no one has picked up on this, but a poster at Angel's named 'flimbys' claims to have an excerpt of the 1001 script, which is called "The One After Joey And Rachel Kiss." According to this poster, the script excerpt he/she has does not include anything related to Joey & Rachel, just scenes of Phoebe & Mike and a new character named Precious.

'flimbys' also claims to have a friend in the children's talent agency business who informed him/her about a casting call for 5-6 year olds to play the triplets (yes, as in the ones Phoebe gave birth to ).

And another:

So basically it starts off with Monica, Chandler and Phoebe in M&C's
room (and remember they all have adjoining rooms and the walls are
thin) and they hear Ross & Charlie in one room and Joey & Rachel in
the other. This is a hilarious scene! Ross decideshe can't do
anything with Charlie until he talks to Joey...so he goes looking
for him. R&J in the meantime continue to kiss until Ross knocks on
the door. So Joey "hides" (again very funny) while Ross and Rachel
talk. After Ross leaves, everyone comes in and confronts Joey and
Rachel - who ultimtely decide not to do anything until they talk to
Ross.

In the meantime, Chandler had been making fun of Monica's big "weird
al" hair so she tells him she is going to the salon before they
leave Barbados. So the next day, she comes in with corn rows and
shells braided into her hair - of course Chandler freaks out and she
talks about how cool the sounds of the shells hitting each other
are. And Chandler replies with "Entertainment for the eyes and
ears!" So everyone thinks her hair looks awful but she likes it.

So then they're on the plane home...Ross sits w/ Charlie and Rachel
w/ Joey (Phoebe & Mike and C&M) - Ross decides to talk to Joey, so
he does...and Joey gives Ross the green light to move forward w/
Charlie but of course doesn't mention anything about Rachel...(b/c
Ross tells Joey he's such a great person, etc.). So when Rachel
comes back to her seat, she tells Joey she will have to tell Ross
herself.

Phoebe and Mike "talk dirty" to each other - well Mike tries, but
isn't very successful. It's very cute...but then he tells Phoebe he
has a girlfriend back in NY but promises to break up with her that
night.

So then....they get back to NY. Rachel tries to tell Ross but since
he stole so much shampoo from the hotel, its spilled out all over
his suitcase...so Rachel can't tell him.

Phoebe is at Mike's apt. waiting for him to come home from the break-
up but the girlfriend (named Precious) comes to the apt. looking for
Mike. So Phoebe has to break-up with her for Mike. Phoebe convinces
Precious (who she calls Suzy) that she's too good for Mike so when
Mike comes home Precious slaps him and leaves...and Phoebe tells him
he's welcome

So Chandler finally tells Monica he hates her hair..and she says she
doesn't care because she likes it and he's just jealous. Then when
she goes to take a shower, when she was dancing around in the
bathroom (off camera) her hair gets caught on the shower rod, so
Chandler has to free her.

I'm not going to give the ending away...its just too good

But I got the endding. She e-mail it out to a bunch of people and
they posted it on other boards so it's ok to.

Joey/Rachel decide that Rachel will talk with him in the morning
about it.Joey points out that she can say I'm sorry in a girlie
voice and use her breast cleave to help get through the talk with
Ross. They decide to do "nothing" untill then but after kissing
goodnight on the lips they started making out . Ross walks in and
Rachel pushes her breast together and say's I'm sorry in a girlie
voice.

Epsiode 10.2

Title: TOW Ross is Fine
The taping for 1002 was indeed on Friday, and some friends of friends attended. They remarked that the taping ran until 9:30-ish, which was apparently an earlier than usual wrap time.

Disclaimer: this is all I know. But I thought it might tide y'all over until more detailed spoilers roll in.

The title seems to fit what little they revealed to me, which was Ross invites Charlie and Joey/Rachel over for dinner (to prove how FINE Ross is with the whole thing). Ross gets blazing drunk, goes into the kitchen, and walks out saying "apparently, I cooked tater tots".

By the way, I'm pulling for Joey/Rachel myself, but I'm pretty sure the brief deets my friends passed on spell out "Ross is supressing his feelings for Rachel" pretty clearly.

Ross invites Charlie and Joey/Rachel over for dinner to prove how FINE Ross is with the whole thing. Ross gets extremely drunk, goes into the kitchen, and walks out saying "apparently, I cooked tater tots". The triplets, as well as Frank Jr., appear. The triplets don't really have any dialogue. This episode also deals with Monica, Chandler, and the adoption issue.

Epsiode 10.3

The One With Ross's Tan. Ross gets a tan that goes bad. Monica and Phoebe meet up with an old friend who lived in England, Amanda (Jennifer Coolidge - American Pie, Legally Blond), who they really don't like. Joey and Rachel go on their first real date.

there are, as usual, 3 substories:
1. Ross's Tan
2. Monica and Phoebe have to meet an old friend they really dislike named "Amanda" who lived in England
3. Joey and Rachel go on their first real date

-Ross goes to a tanning salon to get a tan but he ends up screwing it up completely
-Jennifer Coolidge ("Stifler's Mom" from American Pie a.k.a. the manicurist from Legally Blond) plays "Amanda" in this episode
-This episode pretty much shows the answer to the whole Rachel/Ross or Rachel/Joey question!!!!!

Here's a small bit of dialogue from one of the scenes (the words are probably a bit off but you get the general idea)

Monica, Chandler, Ross sitting in Central Perk
Monica is wearing a miniskirt and her legs are very tanned
Ross is staring at Monica's legs

Chandler: Stop staring at my wife's legs. Wait, let me reword that. Stop staring at your sister's legs!
Ross: (to Monica) Your legs are so tan! I thought you didn't get any sun at Barbados.
Chandler: She went to one of those spray on tan places
Monica: That was supposed to be a secret!
Chandler: uhh... she went to a surfing competition. Which she won of course!
Ross: I can't believe you went to one of those tanning places.
Monica: So! Chandler gets manicures!
Chandler turns red and looks away
Ross: I could use a tan.... and yours came out really well
Monica: Here's the card to the place I went to
Ross: Thanks. I'm definately going to get a tan.
Chandler: You could also get a miniskirt to show off your newly tanned legs.
Ross: Do you get colors on your nails? Or just those french tip things?

Episode 10.5: The One Where Rachel's Other Sister Babysits (Unconfirmed)
Airdate: November 2003

09/24 - According to someone who went to the taping of the episode: Christina Applegate, who acts as Rachel's sister goes to Rachel and Joey’s place to tell Rachel that she is going to marry some old guy because he is very, very, very rich! Rachel talks with her and finally convinces her that what she wants to do is wrong. Amy dumps the guy and decides to move in with Rachel and Joey. Joey isn't very happy with this...she hates Amy. ROSS, RACHEL, EMMA AND AMY Ross and Rachel’s babysitter cancels and Amy volunteers to take care of ELLA (yes, she still can’t get Emma’s name right. This drives Ross crazy….apart from the fact that he doesn’t want Amy to take care of Emma!) Rachel convinces Ross that Amy will do a good job and she tells Ross that this will be very good or Amy. It will be a big step for her. Later on, Amy walks in Central Perk with Emma, and guess what?? She pierced Emma’s ears!!! Rachel can’t believe this….she flips out…she starts screaming at Amy… Then Ross walks in…when he sees Emma he flips out. He and Rachel start fighting but finally make up. This was very funny. When Ross is talking with Rachel and he tells her that he doesn't like it when Amy calls Emma, Ella. He says that it is not that hard to remember a 4 letter name. Rachel tells Ross she likes the name Ella. Then Ross says something like, okay, we can name our second child Ella. Rachel looks at him sort f surprised and confused, but Ross just keeps on talking to distract her. STORYLINE WITH MIKE AND PHOEBE….and yes….ENGAGEMENT Mike and Phoebe went to a Knocks game for their one-year anniversary. While they are watching the game, they see this guy up on the big screen proposing to his girlfriend. Phoebe thinks this is very tacky. Mike gets very nervous because that was the way he was about to propose to Phoebe. He runs up to cancel his proposal. When Phoebe realizes she ruined Mike’s proposal, she gets very sad because she thinks he won’t propose again. So Monica, who is always getting in other people’s lives tells Phoebe that SHE should propose to Mike the same way that he was going to propose to him…up on the big screen. Phoebe decides to do this but it all ends awful because the announcer says something like this: “Well, it is obvious who wears the pants in the family”. Mike is very embarrassed because all the fans start screaming and making fun of him…instead of awing, like it was supposed to be. They finally decide to go out to dinner. Phoebe apologizes to Mike and tells him that she doesn’t care how he proposes, not even if he does something lame like putting the ring on the cake (he had just done that). But finally he just decides to tell her on that moment that he wants to marry her…and…they get engaged. Phoebe cries. CHANDLER AND MONICA Chandler and Monica need to send letter of recommendation to the adoption agency. Joey tells them that he wants to help them write the letters. Monica reluctantly accepts. Joey doesn’t want to let Monica down so he decides to use a thesaurus to write the letters. The phrase “They are warm people at hearts”, turns out like this_: “They are humid homosapiens at the aorta pump”. Joey thinks this is more sophisticated. When Chandler and Monica read it, they tell him to write a simpler one. Joey accepts, but when he finishes the letter, he just send it to the agency without consulting, Monica and Chandler first! Chandler quickly calls the agency to tell them t throw the letter out before they read it, but it is too late. The lady from the agency tells Chandler it was very sweet of him to get a child write the letter because it proves how much they love children. They think a child (Joey) wrote the letter.

Episode 10.07: The One With The Home Study
Airdate: November 13, 2003

11/03 - The Bings' road to adoption hits a bump when their social worker realizes she's been to their place before...as one of Joey's many dates. Meanwhile, Mike and Phoebe struggle over donating their wedding fund to a charity other than themselves.

10/08 - WILL ADOPTED BABY MAKE THREE FOR MONICA AND CHANDLER -- DESPITE 'JOEY FACTOR'? -- Monica (Courteney Cox Arquette) and Chandler (Matthew Perry) fuss over their apartment as they expect a visit from the adoption worker (as Laura, guest star TBA) who will decide if they will make suitable parents -- unfortunately, she horrifies the uptight couple when she confesses that she was once romanced by a cad named Joey (Matt LeBlanc) in the same buidling who never returned her calls. Meanwhile, Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) and Mike (guest star Paul Rudd) opt for a small wedding and donate the extra money to a children's charity -- only to demand it all back. Elsewhere, Ross (David Schwimmer) uses baby Emma to confront Rachel's (Jennifer Aniston) irrational fear of swingsets.

09/28 - Phoebe and Mike are planning their wedding and they decided to just get married at City Hall and donate the money they would have used to charity. They go to the offices of "Children of New York" and they say they want to make a donation. At first they say it has to be anonymous. The guy at the front desk ask them if they would like be included in their newsletter and Mike says something like "A possible header can be 'Two Genorous People Making the World Better'" and Phoebe says "Yes, two genorous people Mr. X and Phoebe Buffay" so the guy who works at the foundation says they can include their names if they would like and Mike says no but Phoebe starts spelling out her last name. They leave feeling really good about themselves. But then, Phoebe goes to Monica and Chandler's apartment and Monica tells Phoebe that she was cleaning and found something she might like. Monica takes out her wedding vail and gives it to Phoebe. Phoebe loves it but tells Monica that she won't be needing it because she's not planning on wearing a dress at all. Monica says "I told you I won't come to a naked wedding!!" But Phoebe tells her that her and Mike donated all their money to a Children's fund and they plan on getting married at City Hall. Monica almost has a heart attack and yells "That's crazy!!!" and Chandler says "Generous" so Monica says "Crazy Generous!" So Phoebe says parties aren't for her and that the vail wouldn't even fit her so she tries it on and when she looks at herself says it looks stunning on her and now she decides she DOES want a big wedding! She decides she wants her money back and Chandler says she can't do that, but Monica says she can and Monica is really excited because there will be a big wedding. So, Mike and Phoebe go back to Children of New York and say they want their money back. Of course the guy thinks they're crazy and he makes Phoebe feel bad about asking for it back. But Phoebe tells him that he's not being fair because she never had a sweet 16 or a graduation and this big party is very special to her. Phoebe and Mike leave and then they go to Central Perk and then they feel bad about taking the money back so yes... They decide to give it back, again! They go back to the Children of New York and tell the same guy that they want to give it back because they feel guilty. But they're so unsure about it that they guy says on behalf of the Children of New York, we can't take your money anymore and now consider this money a donation from us. He tells Mike and Phoebe to have a wonderful wedding and they leave. Monica and Chandler are in the process of adopting! Their whole storyline was about them waiting for the social worker to come and interview them. Joey finds out about the interview and tells Monica and Chandler that it might be a good idea for him to stop by because little people knowing a celebrity is a big deal. Joey leaves and a few hours later the social worker comes. I think her name was Matty. They sit to have coffee and start talking. Everything is going well until the Matty says "I feel like I've been here before. Is there another couple adopting?" Monica says "Is it the couple from downstairs?? Because if it is, then, we should get a baby first because the guy has tried selling drugs to me!" So, then the Matty says "Oooh, I remember now! I dated a guy who lived in these apartments. We had a great night, said he'd call me back, he never did." So Monica says "That wouldn't by any chance be Joey Tribbiani?" And of course the Matty says yes! Now they don't want Joey to visit them during the interview. But of course Joey comes and he says before entering the apartment "Did anyone order a celebrity?" Chandler runs to the door to stop him from coming in. Matty is intrigued to know what's going on and Chandler says that it's just a crazy guy named Bert. Matty says "Well, is he okay out there by himself?" Chandler says "No, it's okay he has an older brother watching out for him... Ernie" Matty says "Bert and Ernie?" Chandler says "You can't make things like that up!" Anyway, Joey is now worried that they're not okay inside so he tries to find a way into the apartment. He ends up climbing through the back window but Monica and Chandler notice him and Monica pulls Matty into the babies room to show her and closes the door. Joey comes in and Chandler tells him "What the heck are you doing?" Joey says that he thought they needed help because he called him Bert and that's their secret word for danger. Chandler says they don't have a secret word. Joey says "We don't? Well we should have one. From now on our secret word is Bert." Then Monica and Matty come out of the babies room and Chandler throws Joey to the ground and hides him behind the sofa. Monica asks Chandler what room they should see next and Chandler says "Any room that's not behind this couch!" They both laugh really hard and Matty is just confused but she doesn't have time to ask anything because Monica pulls her into their room. Chandler then tells Joey he has to leave because he slept with their social worker and never called her back. Joey says okay and walks out. But then Joey comes back in because he forgot a bat he was carrying and at the same time Matty walked out of the room. They're all just quiet for a minute but then Chandler turns and says "For the last time! We don't want to be friends with you! And we do not want to buy your bat!!" Matty asked Joey what he was doing there and Joey very smoothly turns the tables around and acts like he's really depressed because she never called him back. He leaves the room crying while Matty is trying to apologize, lol. Then Matty feels bad about Monica and Chandler watching that but Monica says don't worry that relationships are hard. Matty tells them they're really nice people and that they're going to make great parents! So... They are approved by her!! They are now on a waiting list to get a baby. Ross picks up Emma at Rachel's. Rachel asked Ross what they were planning on doing and Ross says he was going to take her to the park. Rachel FREAKS out and says "What??!" So it turns out Rachel had this horrible experience on the swings when she was little. Her hair got stuck to the swing and her mom had to cut it off. So she had one side shorter than the other and that traumatized her for life! Ross makes fun of her but she reminds him of his fear for spiders. So then Ross convinces Rachel to go with them so she can see swings are nice and that Emma will love them. So now they're at the park and Rachel is all freaked out. She keeps yelling at Ross to watch out for Emma's hair and Ross tells her to relax that Emma only has like 3 hairs. Emma starts swinging and she's very happy and smiling and laughing so Rachel thinks it's really cute and wants to swing Emma. Ross says okay and Rachel tells him to get the camera so he can take a picture. As Ross is trying to take a picture he says "See. Swings aren't bad. Look how happy Emma is" and he keeps moving back and a little boy on the swings next to Emma knocks him out. Rachel runs to Ross and he's trying to get up. Anyway, Ross tells Rachel to get on a swing so she can see how nice they are. She says "Sure, I'll get on...if you hold a spider" Ross gets paranoid and starts saying "Where? Where? Where?" while dancing trying to get the spider off. Rachel then says "IF you hold a spider!" So Ross trying to act cool says "Oh yeah, sure!" Rachel ends up getting on the swing and she likes it afterall. And Ross held a spider even though at the end he was knocked out again this time by Rachel because the spider ended up crawling up to his neck and he was jumping around trying to take it off and he didn't see Rachel swinging and she kicked him.

Episode 1008 - The One With The Late Thanksgiving
Air Date: November 20th

Rachel, Joey, Phoebe, and Ross are in the coffee house. Monica and Chandler come in, and Monica says she has an announcement. She's not cooking a Thanksgiving dinner this year. Everyone is sad, and Phoebe tells her that she should since last year wasn't very good. Monica asks what she means, and Phoebe tells her why and that she should try and make this year even better, so she would be in competition with herself. Monica stands up and yells that that's her favorite kind of competition, and she'll do it. Back at Monica and Chandler's, Monica is cooking dinner, and Chandler tells her that he wants to help, so she tells him he can make the cranberry sauce. Then Ross and Joey come in. They have tickets to the hockey game that day. They have great seats, and Chandler really wants to go, but he looks at the time, and it shows that they won't be back in time for the Thanksgiving dinner. The guys agree, but as they walk out into the hallway, Joey turns to Ross and says, "so, we're still going right?", and Joey says, "of course!" Rachel is at her apartment with Monica. Phoebe walks in. Monica tells them they need to go pick up some pies by 4:00, because that's when dinner is starting. When she leaves, Phoebe asks Rachel what Emma is doing that day. Rachel asks why and Phoebe tells her that she enrolled Emma in a baby beauty pageant. At first, Rachel is mad, but then she finds out that the prize is $1000, so she agrees but tells her not to tell Ross. So, Ross and Joey go to the game. There's just a little funny scene of them there. Meanwhile, Rachel and Phoebe go to the beauty pageant, and Rachel says it's really weird that there are all these little girls here, in panty hose. Rachel tells Phoebe she's worried because there's a guy over there, and he didn't come with a baby. Phoebe convinces her that she needs to stay in the fight, that all the judges said Emma was prettier than all the other girls. Rachel agrees to stay. Meanwhile, at Monica and Chandler's, everyone is 45 minutes late and Monica is really ticked off. Ro ss and Joey come back just as Phoebe and Rachel arrive. They are all freaking out, because they're late. So they decide to come up with an excuse. The first excuse is that Ross and Joey got mugged, so Joey tares Ross's shirt. Then, they decide to just tell them that they thought dinner started at 5. Inside Monica and Chandler's, Chandler hears people talking outside so he looks through the peephole. He sees them standing there, and then he notices that Joey is wearing a big hand like the ones you get at hockey games. Chandler and Monica get mad that they went, and are late. They decide not to let them in for dinner. Rachel knocks on the door and Monica tells her that they can have dinner by themselves! So she slips under a small piece of meat for them all to share. They try to decide who gets the piece, but then Joey just takes it and eats it. Then, Rachel remembers she still has the key to the apartment. She gets it and unlocks the door but Monica has locked the chain. First, Joey sticks his head through and makes his eyes really wide and tries to apologize. Monica and Chandler try to look away but they can't. Everybody sticks their head through the door. They all apologize. Monica says she forgives them and she'll let them in as soon as Phoebe and Rachel go get the pies. Phoebe: "The pies?" Monica: "Yeah, remember, I told you to go pick them up." Phoebe: "Oh, we thought you said prize." She pulls out the prize Emma won at the beauty pageant. Monica reads the inscription that says something like "little miss darling". Rachel puts on a big smile and says "CONGRATULATIONS!" Monica gets mad and tells them that now, they definitely can't come in. They all get mad and take their heads out, but Joey can't get his head out… it's stuck. They try to get it out by putting oil on the sides of it, but it doesn't work. The gang is sticking things down his pants. Monica and Chandler's phone rings, and Monica goes to answer it. Everyone is trying to get Joey out. Finally, Chandler decides that he's going to pull while the oth ers push. They do so, and they pull the door open and Joey goes flying into a table full of food. Chandler yells at him saying that Monica is going to be so mad. As Joey gets up, Monica comes out, she looks sad. Chandler says, "Look what the heads did!" (because he called them heads when they had their heads through the door). Monica says, "I don't care". Chandler: "Why not?" Monica: "That was the adoption agency." Chandler: "Well, what did they say?" Monica: "WE'RE GETTING A BABY! A woman in Kansas is having a baby, and she chose us to be the parents!" Everyone hugs, and cheers. Then at the very end, they are all sitting around eating Thanksgiving dinner. Rachel gives a toast to the girl who got knocked up in Ohio.

Air Date: Januaryth 2004

Basically what happens is Chandler and Monica get called to Ohio to meet with this lady who wants to interview them about adopting her baby (she's pregnant with it now). They meet her, and the interview seems to be going really well until the lady mentions how great she would feel if her baby went to them since Monica is a minister and Chandler a doctor! Instead of saying something, Monica won't let Chandler correct the situation and she goes along with it. Erica then asks them how they would cope with having a baby when they are having such a time consuming jobs! She asks Monica how her flock would manage without her... Monica's like "my flock?" and Chandler kinda whispers in an "omg, I can't believe you're going with this" kinda way "the people of your church" Monica answers her something like "they manage on their own anyway... - then Erica turns to chandler and asks about him, because being a doctor must take up a lot of his time, he replies something like "oh no, not me." So, after all the lying at the meeting, Erica says she has made up her mind and wants them to adopt her baby once she's given birth. The adoption agency tells them to come back later to fill out the forms! So Chandler and Monica leave the agency and make their way over to their hotel. Once there, Chandler starts to feel really guilty about lying to Erica and tells Monica that when they go back they will have to confess to Erica that they really aren't who she thinks they are! He tells Mon that this lady has a right to know who her baby will be going to! Monica gets all upset and teary and begs Chandler to let them do this, as they may never get that chance again, another baby might not ever come up! He still says they have to do this and that Erica may still consider them as they have told her the truth! They hug, and it's a really sweet moment between them! They go back to the agency later that day, all prepared to explain the situation. As they get there and sit at the desk to talk to Erica, Monica sees a sonogram picture. She asks if th at's what it is and Erica replies "yes, it's from last week, I thought you might like to see it" Chandler is about to say something but Monica snatches it from Erica and is like "look doctor". When Chandler can't take anymore he tells Erica that there has been a mix up and that they aren't who she thinks they are. When Erica asked to see them for the interview, they must have mixed up their reference form numbers because they aren't a minister or doctor. Erica gets up and looks kinda upset, like I can't believe you lied to me. Chandler says he hopes she will still consider them as they came forward and told the truth! Erica gets up and starts to walk out and she kinda yells at them... something like "I can't believe you lied to me, and you think I would trust you with my baby now" and she storms out leaving Monica and Chandler standing there. Chandler then runs out in to the hall to chase Erica! He begs for to listen to him! Chandler says something like "we did lie to you, and we're sorry, but no one wants this baby more than us please just read our files and see what you think! We're Chandler and Monica Bing and we live in NYC. My wife's a chef, and I work in advertising!" When he says that, Erica says how she has read their file and she actually liked them. He's like you should like us, no one would love that baby like us. He goes on to say how the one thing he should be able to give his wife is a baby and he feels horrible for that. He's like I know when it's the right time for me I'll learn to be a great dad, but my wife's already a mother, just without the baby! This scene is really emotional. You then see Monica alone in the room all teary and Chandler walks in, and she has her back to him... and he's like "You still want that baby?" and she turns around and runs to him. You can hear her cry and they give each other a hug!

Episode 10.12: The One Where Rachel Decides (unconfirmed)
Airdate: Winter 2004

11/26 - They wouldn't let us see the previous taping because supposedly something big happened in it, but we could infer from the opening scenes of our taping that Ross was comforting Rachel, and they kissed! There were two main storylines... Monica and Chandler had Erica's parents over along with the Gellers for dinner so everyone could meet. Erica's dad (David Ogden Steirs) and her mom (some Australian actress I never heard of) were very snobby who didn't like Erica giving her child away. Mrs. Geller kept embarassing Monica by telling stories of her growing up (she once doubled as a bass drum for the band), and Mr. Geller was having gas problems. Chandler tried to bond with Erica's dad, but kept focusing on the fact he was bald. Chandler told Monica he didn't want to have a bald child, and Monica replied that as long as he didn't end up as a gay ice dancer like his grandfather, she would be ok with it. At the end, the Gellers convince Erica's parents that Monica and Chandler would make good parents "eventually", and Erica's parents reluctantly give their blessing. The other storyline dealt with R&R kissing. Ross goes to Joey's apartment to talk to him about it while Rachel talks to Phoebe and Mike in Central Perk. Ross tells Joey about the kiss and asked if he was ok with it, and Joey said of course he was. Joey thought it was mistake to like her in that way in the first place. So Ross feels ok to tell him that he feels like starting things up with Rachel again, but isn't sure what Rachel feels like and doesn't know how to go about asking her. Meanwhile, Rachel tells Phoebe and Mike about the kiss, to which Phoebe instantly gets excited that they are getting back together. Rachel says that she's worried she gave Ross some bad signals, because she doesn't want to go down that road again, and that the kiss was just in an emotional moment. (I have no idea what emotional moment they are talking about...the producers never told us either.) So Joey convinces Ross to act on his true feelings and go ask Rachel to go out again, because Joey understands what a special woman Rachel is, and that Ross shouldn't let her go. Just at that moment Rachel comes back into J&R's apartment and wants to talk about the kiss. They both start to talk at the same time and then, of course, Rachel goes first and tells Ross that she just can't get back together with Ross. She is worried that if they got together and it didn't work out this time, that it could permanently damage the relationship with their child and each other. When Rachel asks Ross what he thinks, he just nods his head and agrees with her. They hug, and you can see the expression on Ross's face that he is NOT ok with it.
