Featured reviews
I hate this episode.
Plot In A Paragraph: After appearing in a dire play about Freud, Joey (Matt Le Blanc) lands a part as Al Pacino's butt double in a new movie. Meanwhile Chandler (Matthew Perry) starts dating Aurora, a girl who has a complicated love life, and Monica (Courtney Cox) tries to prove she can be laid back after Rachel (Jennifer Aniston cleans the apartment.
Once complaint in this episode is that when Le Blanc is in the shower you can see his shadow, and you blatantly see his is wearing shorts, but that is more than made up for by a fantastic turn by Perry.
Perry's performance is superb, as he deals with both the joy of the no strings attached relationship and the the jealousy that comes with such a relationship.

- Quotes
Dr. Ross Geller: [Monica is trying to convince the gang that she can be irresponsible, random, and a "kook"] All right, you madcap gal, try to imagine this: the phone bill arrives, but you don't pay it right away.
Monica Geller: Why not?
Dr. Ross Geller: Because you're a 'kook'! Instead, you wait until they send you a notice.
Monica Geller: [a little uncomfortable] I could do that.
Rachel Green: Okay, okay, you let me go grocery shopping...
Monica Geller: No problem!
Rachel Green: I'm not done yet.
Monica Geller: Oh.
Rachel Green: *And... * I buy laundry detergent *But... * it's not the one with the easy-pour spout!
Monica Geller: *Why would someone do that?*
[she catches herself]
Monica Geller: One might wonder... but I would be fine with that.
Chandler Bing: Someone's left a glass on the coffee table. There's no coaster. It's a cold drink. It's a hot day.
[Monica begins to squirm, and Chandler goes in for the kill]
Chandler Bing: Little beads of condensation are inching their way closer and closer to the surface of the wood...
Monica Geller: *Stop it!* Oh, my god... it's true. Who am I?
Dr. Ross Geller: Monica... you're Mom.
[Phoebe imitates screeching violins from "Psycho" and slashes air with imaginary knife]
