Quotes

Ross: Listen, I'm- I'm sorry I was so hard on you before, it's just I...
Rachel: Oh, Ross, c'mon. It's my fault, I almost lost your...
Ross: Yeah, but you were the one who got him back, y'know? You, you were great. Hey, we uh, we still have that, uh, that bottle of wine. You in the mood for, uh, something grape?
Rachel: That'd be good.

Rachel: Oh... (opens it)... (sees it is a pin) Oh my God. He remembered.
Phoebe: Remembered what?
Rachel: It was like months ago. We were walking by this antique store, and I saw this pin in the window, and I told him it was just like one my grandmother had when I was a little girl. Oh! I can't believe he remembered!
Chandler: Well, sure, but can you play it on a plane? (pats his Travel Scrabble game)
Phoebe: Oh, it's so pretty. This must have cost him a fortune.
Monica: I can't believe he did this.
Chandler: Come on, Ross? Remember back in college, when he fell in love with Carol and bought her that ridiculously expensive crystal duck?
Rachel: What did you just say?
Chandler: (panicked) ahem... um... Crystal duck.
Rachel: No, no, no.... the, um, the... 'love' part?
Chandler: (stuttering incoherently) F-hah.... flennin....
Rachel: Oh.... my God.

Ross: I've no idea, could be. Listen, I'm sorry I had to work tonight.
Rachel: Oh it's OK. You were worth the wait, and I don't just mean tonight.

Ross: You're not laughing.
Rachel: This time it's not so funny

Rach: Ross, just so you know, with us, it’s never off the table

Ross: I know we’re gonna end up together!

Ross: I can’t imagine my life without you

Rach: I just figured that somewhere down the road we would be on again

Rach: You and me alright? This is it!

Ross: I love you too and I’m never letting you go again

Rach: Because it is too damn hard Ross. I can't even begin to explain to you how much I'm gonna miss you. When I think about not seeing you every day, it makes me not want to go.

Ross: It just felt so right! When I was holding her I never wanted to let her go

Ross: Thank you for being born

Rach: I swear, this is the best I’ve ever had.

Ross: I don't wanna get over her. I don't! I wanna be with her

Rach: I can’t believe I’m waking up next to you

Quote of the moment

RACHEL: Ok, Ross, Ross, ok listen, what we have is amazing.
ROSS: Yeah.
RACHEL: But I do not want to have everything decided for me. I spent my whole life like that.
It's what I had with Barry, that was one of the reasons I left.
I, I like not knowing right now and I'm sorry
if that scares you but if you want to be with me you are gonna have to deal with that.
ROSS: Ok fine.
RACHEL: Thank you.
ROSS: We're not done.
RACHEL: I didn't know that.
ROSS: Ok, then you're gonna have to understand that you're with a guy who's not gonna stop
planning his future with you because
he knows that we're gonna end up together and if that
scares you, tough, 'cause you're gonna have to deal with that.
RACHEL: Fine, I will.
ROSS: Good, 'cause I love you.
RACHEL: Oh yeah.
ROSS: Yeah.
RACHEL: Well I love you too.
ROSS: Well that's the first time we've said that.
RACHEL: Yes it is.
ROSS: Well, I'm gonna kiss you.
RACHEL: Well you better.

TO BE CONTINUED.

Thanks to Steph for the title!

New thread Thanks Cris

Love the title He was so right even if they were just dating for like 2 months back then
Rachel was right too thinking "somewhere down the road, we would be on again"

[Cris]

You're welcome

Yeah, it was a new relationship, but I think since Ross has been in love for Rachel for so long and it was finally happening, he wanted to make things work.

[Black mamba]

Yeah, he couldn't imagine to not be with her, it was like 'a dream comes true' for him

[Cris]

Yeah, it was.

Yesterday I was watching the farewell interview on Oprah and it was adorable to see both David and Jen all emotional talking about Ross and Rachel.

BTW, if anyone hasn't watched yet, please go watch the interview. Nele gently uploaded the whole interview on youtube. The links are on our media thread. It's really amazing and just reinforces how much the actors care about each other and about the show. I don't know how much people would stop by, but the cast should have their own appreciation thread, you know? Just wondering...

[stoptheqtip]

The moment I start bawling in TO The Morning After (I'm already in tears) when he says "I can't imagine my life without you" and... well, sorry, it's allergy season again.

The cast were always really, really dedicated. I was watching the E! True Hollywood Story yesterday, and it's just amazing how much they put into it and how much they cared about each other.

[Cris]

That scene is really something... you don't wanna see, cause you know they are going to break up, but at the same time you keep watching because it is so well acted. It is one of the most powerful moments for Friends, I think, especially because we're talking about a sitcom here. They managed to mix the emotional moments with lighter ones perfectly in that episode.

[stoptheqtip]

It's pretty much my favourite episode, because it was the episode where I realized- this is more than a sitcom, these are absolutely fantastic actors and this is a great show with the best characters. It would totally be my favourite episode if it didn't make me cry. But that's its intention, really, to get you to cry over these characters, who aren't real and who aren't really breaking-up, but you care so deeply about them anyway, you're going to miss their relationship. It's definitely the saddest episode of Friends, though the only other three I can think of that are really sad are TOW Joey Tells Rachel, TOW The Fertility Test and The Last One and The Last One is just sad on principle. But, still.

Yeah, everyone should watch that interview, if they haven't seen it yet, it's just awesome and emotional, I love it
And you know it could be a good idea to have a thread on the cast I always loved the fact that they are all really good friends in real life, we could post pics and stuff, talk about their interviews... (Could be a thread for their friendship on the show too, like we have thread "actor/character")

About RnR breakup argh, that was so, so well played. Heartbreaking, you just feel so bad for both of them, you want to hug them both and it makes me teary so easily David and Jen were really good in that all scene
It was so intense to watch them "fight" (it was more Rachel who was angry) then just look at their sad expression knowing it was all coming to a end although they both still love each other so much
When Ross takes Rachel arms (kinda pulling her hand over his heart) begging her, both crying then when get down on his knee.. *sniff*

Yeah, we don't have a thread for the six friends... another idea...

And I know, both were devastated by the break-up.

[unfloopy_]

New Thread! Yayy.

...because it was the episode where I realized- this is more than a sitcom, these are absolutely fantastic actors and this is a great show with the best characters.

You're so right, steph, when you write that. ITA on that.
That's the main reason I love Friends [as the show], the way they mixed drama and comedy, wonderful acting.
