Episode 15 - TOW The Birthing Video
25 March 2012
Synopsis: Phoebe lends Rachel a birthing video but Monica and Chandler end up watching it and freaking out at the pain involved. Ross doesn’t tell Mona that Rachel has moved in with him and so she dumps him. Joey tells Ross that he loves Rachel.
The Good: Joey telling Ross is good, rather than have him discover it in some “amusing” way. The odd one-liner here or there is ok.
The Bad: No plot here, no characters here, just one-liner city. Basically once they have seen the birthing video it is all about making stupid jokes about it. The writes are just trying to think of as many dirty or silly lines as they can. It is not funny enough to justify how stupid it is. Ross doesn’t make lying to Mona funny enough to save this one.
Best Line: (Ro) “I haven’t exactly been the perfect boyfriend. I didn’t tell her I got Rachel pregnant, then I gave her a key to my apartment then I had the locks changed…and then I lied to her about Rachel moving in with me. In a way I actually judge her for not breaking up with me sooner.”
Best Friend: Ross
