"So he just never comes out of his room?" Marty asked as she ate breakfast with Chandler

"Nope." Chandler shook his head.

"Have you ever had a conversation with him?" Marty wondered.

"Nope."

The redhead chuckle, "Have you ever had a normal conversation?"

"Nope."

Marty smiled as she took a sip of her orange juice, "Thanks again for letting me stay here."

"No problem." Chandler nodded as he leaned against the counter, "But why not stay with your boyfriend in his hotel until the work on the building next to yours is done?"

Marty rolled her eyes, "Firstly, he's not my boyfriend." She said, "And besides, it'd be pretty weird, don't you think? I mean, we've only been seeing each other for a small while and we're not even actually dating, so." She shrugged.

"Yeah, but I give it a week or so." Chandler said.

"Really?" Marty asked with a small smile.

Chandler nodded, "Really."

Marty sat next to Rachel on the floor of the girls' apartment, the redhead's legs draped over the older girl's as the gang - minus Ross - were watching Joey in the latest episode of Days of Our Lives.

"Oh Drake."

"I'm sorry Amber. It's just like Brad to have to have the last word."

The apartment door opened and Ross rushed into the room, "I'm sorry I'm late, what happened?"

Everyone shushed him as Monica said, "We, we just wanna see the end."

"I want you Drake."

"I know you do but you and I can never be together that way."

"What?"

"There's something I never told you Amber. I'm actually your half- brother."

Joey grinned as his friends all gasped and turned to him in shock and excitement.

"So what happens next?"

"Well, I get the medical award for separating the Siamese twins." Joey listed off on his fingers, "Then Amber and I go to Venezuela to meet our other half-brother, Ramone. And that's where I find the world's biggest emerald. It's really big but it's cursed."

"God that is good TV." Chandler nodded.
