A massive drop in quality with this episode.

Plot In A Paragraph: Rachel sees an engagement announcement for her former fiancée and her former best friend. Keen to spend more time with her, Ross asks Rachel to keep his monkey Marcel for a day, and she loses him. All the gang come to help and everyone starts looking for him, Rachel calls Animal Control over to help, but she doesn't know that Ross is not allowed to have an exotic monkey. The Animal Control employee is in fact a former schoolmate of Monica and Rachel, and boy does she hate them, so the race is on to find the monkey first.

Jennifer Aniston looks cute in this episode, but that's really all there is to enjoy about it. The old spurred classmate story was silly, though the ending was a surprise.

Trivia
During the end credits, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe, and Monica are reminiscing about high school. After Joey tells them how much he enjoyed it, Chandler informs them that he "went to boarding school with 400 boys." Prior to moving to Los Angeles at the age of 15 to live with his American father, Perry lived with his Canadian mother in Ottawa, Canada for several years, during which time he actually did briefly attend Ashbury College, a boarding school with an actual enrollment of approximately 400 boys at the time.

Goofs
Mr. Heckles is clearly a thin, older man, yet the hands that reach for Marcel in the hallway are those of a fatter, younger man.

Quotes
Dr. Ross Geller: I figured after work I go pick up a bottle of wine, go over there and try to woo her.
Chandler Bing: Hey, you know what you should do? You should take her back to the 1890's when that phrase was last used.
