Trivia
Phoebe demonstrates her waitressing skills with the phrase "Adam & Eve on a raft and wreck 'em!" In diner lingo that means two scrambled eggs on toast.

Goofs
When Chandler orders pizza to be delivered, he tells the person on the phone to buzz Rachel and Monica's apartment and they would let them in. However, at this time, Monica was catering a party for Dr. Burke and Rachel was on a date with Ross. Meaning, nobody could have answered.

However, Chandler has long lost track of time and must not have realized that the apartment was going to be empty. He just won't pay tips when the deliver person rings their buzz.

Quotes
Ross: [on the phone] Whoa, whoa whoa! Australopithecus isn't supposed to be in that display. No! No! No! Homo habilis was erect, Australopithecus was never fully erect!
Chandler: Well, maybe he was nervous.

Ages amazingly well!

I watched this in my late 20's so I'm biased, for sure. But rewatching now, it is still funny, and a lot is happening in this episode. Two new romances, one from within the group and the other with Tom Selleck!!! They're all really good actors! They're friendship off camera definitely helped with that. And they're all young and beautiful 😏 I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it!
