Because Joey's ridiculous series-long obsession with twins starts here as he tries - and fails - to convince the scientific world that Carl (Louis Mandylor) is his identical twin.

Why It's So Funny: Because Ross' ridiculous series-long obsession with "kara-tay" (his snooty pronunciation) basically gets a stand-alone episode as he squares off with Rachel and Phoebe in a series of scares designed to test their Unagi (perhaps a state of total awareness, definitely a type of sushi). The Plot: While Joey is trying to dupe his way into a science experiment for twins, Monica and Chandler have each forgotten to make the other a Valentine's Day gift, and Ross tries to test Rachel and Phoebe's self-defense skills. All of these threads culminate in a hilarious tidal wave of revelations that, to quote Judy, is "a lot of information to get in 30 seconds."īest Quote: "Hurricane Gloria didn’t break the porch swing, Monica did." -Ross And Phoebe is harboring sexual feelings toward Jack following a naughty dream. Meanwhile, as Rachel is making dessert, she accidentally creates half an English trifle and half a shepherd's pie, which Joey and Ross convince everyone to eat so dinner will end and they can leave. Here, Monica is keeping her relationship with Chandler a secret from her parents because they dislike him, and it turns out that their grudge is decades-old as Ross blamed Chandler for the pot smell in his room during sophomore year spring break.
Why It's So Funny: While some sitcoms struggle to deliver compelling A- and B- plots, Friends was often able to successfully execute a half-dozen concurrent storylines and this episode is a prime example of the writers' ability to keep all of the plots in the air at once. Ross and Joey want to bail so they can go to a party with supermodels, and Rachel screws up the dessert.
The Plot: Monica and Chandler are hosting Thanksgiving, but it turns out that Jack and Judy Geller (Elliott Gould and Christina Pickles) hate Chandler.
