Air Date: September 25th Episode 1001 - The One After Joey And Rachel Kiss
It basically starts off with Monica (Courteney Cox Arquette), Chandler (Matthew Perry), and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) in Monica and Chandler's room (remember they all have adjoining rooms, and the walls are thin), and they hear Ross (David Schwimmer, who, by the way, directs this episode) and Charlie (Aisha Tyler) in one room and Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) in the other. Ross decides he can't do anything with Charlie until he talks to Joey, so he goes looking for him. In the meantime, Rachel and Joey continue to kiss until Ross knocks on the door. So Joey "hides" while Ross and Rachel talk. After Ross leaves, everyone comes in and confronts Joey and Rachel, who ultimately 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's going to the salon before they leave Barbados. So the next day she comes in with cornrows 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. Chandler replies with "Entertainment for the eyes and ears!" Everyone thinks her hair looks awful, but she likes it. So then they're on the plane home, and Ross sits with Charlie and Rachel with Joey (Phoebe and Mike and Chandler and Monica). Ross decides to talk to Joey, and Joey gives Ross the green light to move forward with Charlie, but of course doesn't mention anything about Rachel, because 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 New York but promises to break up with her that night. So then they get back to New York. 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 apartment waiting for him to come home from the break-up, but the girlfriend, Precious, comes to the apartment 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. Phoebe tells him he's welcome. So Chandler finally tells Monica he hates her hair, but she says she doesn't care because she likes it and that he's just jealous. When she goes to take a shower she dances around in the bathroom (off camera), and her hair gets caught on the shower rod, so Chandler has to free her. In the last scene, Rachel tells Joey she couldn't tell Ross because of a shampoo emergency but that she'll tell him tomorrow. So for the time being, they can't do anything. So Joey tells her, it'll be better for her to tell Ross anyway since she's a girl and she can just say (in a girly way) "I'm so sorry" and show her cleavage. So they say goodnight and kiss on the lips, then just kind of stare at each other then say goodnight again and kiss again. Then of course they start kissing very passionately, and Ross walks in and sees them. So he's just standing there looking at them and then Rachel like pushes her boobs together and goes "I am so sorry." and that's how it ends!
