影片对白

Monica: C'mon, you can't live off your parents your whole life.

Rachel: I know that. That's why I was getting married.

Phoebe: Give her a break, it's hard being on your own for the first time.

Rachel: Thank you.

Phoebe: You're welcome. I remember when I first came to this city. I was fourteen. My mom had just killed herself and my step-dad was back in prison, and I got here, and I didn't know anybody. And I ended up living with this albino guy who was, like, cleaning windshields outside port authority, and then he killed himself, and then I found aromatherapy. So believe me, I know exactly how you feel.

Ross: The word you're looking for is 'Anyway'...

Monica: You ready?

Rachel: I don't think so.

Ross: C'mon, cut. Cut, cut, cut...

All: Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut... 

All: Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut...

Monica: Welcome to the real world! It sucks. You're gonna love it!

Monica: Well, that's it. You gonna crash on the couch?

Ross: No. No, I gotta go home sometime.

Monica: You be okay?

Ross: Yeah.

Rachel: Hey Mon, look what I just found on the floor. What?

Monica: That's Paul's watch. You just put it back where you found it. Oh boy. Alright. Goodnight, everybody.

Ross: Mmm. Oh, no...

Rachel: Sorry...

Ross: No no no, go...

Rachel: No, you have it, really, I don't want it...

Ross: Split it?

Rachel: Okay.

Ross: Okay. You know you probably didn't know this, but back in high school, I had a, um, major crush on you.

Rachel: I knew.

Ross: You did! Oh... I always figured you just thought I was Monica's geeky older brother.

Rachel: I did.

Ross: Oh. Listen, do you think... and try not to let my intense vulnerability become any kind of a factor here... but do you think it would be okay if I asked you out? Sometime? Maybe?

Rachel: Yeah, maybe...

Ross: Okay... okay, maybe I will...

Rachel: Goodnight.

Ross: Goodnight.
