Shadows Of The Day

The one with the sonogram at the end

Ronnie Chandler Phoebe and Joey were sitting in Monica's apartment watching Threes a Company.

"I think this is the episode of Three's Company where there's some kind of misunderstanding," Chandler says.

"Oh, then I've already seen this one," Phoebe reveals, turning off the TV.
The attention then turns to Monica who was cleaning the apartment.

"Are you through with that?" she asks Joey not waiting for an answer, snatching the glass from his hand.

"Yeah, sorry. The swallowing slowed me
down", he snarked, wiping his mouth.

Ronnie seeing this and panicking that her
iced tea would be snatched away too gulped the last of it down a bit too quickly, choking a little in the process and trying not to splutter in fear of being Monica's next victim.

"Whose little ball of paper is this?" Monica
demanded to know while Joey whacked
Ronnies back.

"Oh, that would be mine."
Chandler Ronnie thought shaking her head
you naïve fool.

"See I wrote a note to myself", he goes on
to explain in vain, his confidence dropping while Monica's irritability only grew. "And then I realised I didn't need it so I balled it up... and now I wish I was dead."

Monica scoffed in disbelief, taking her rage out by aggressively fluffing up the already pre-fluffed pillows.

"Monica you already fluffed" Phoebe started but one look had her changing her mind on what she was going to say "-but it's fine."

"Look I'm sorry guy but I just don't want to give them any more ammunition than they already have."

"Yes, we all know how cruel a parent can be about the flatness of a child's pillow."Chandler joked.

"Monica hi! Um, you're scaring me." Phoebe
told her gently. "I mean, You're like all
chaotic and twirly, you know? And not in a
good way."

"Yeah, calm down. You don't see Ross getting all chaotic and twirly every time they come."

Ronnie winced hearing this wrong move Joe.

Monica sighed. "That's because as far as my
parents are concerned Ross can do no wrong. You see, he's the Prince. Apparently, they had some big ceremony before I was born."

She explained, trying to cover the hurt in her voice when talking about how much anxiety her parent caused her growing up.

"Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!"

"What?"

"Ugly naked guy got a thigh master."

Everyone rushed to the window to see,
letting out groans of disdain except Ronnie who had her eyes covered by Phoebe at the last minute "Protect the innocence!" she proclaimed,

turning them both away from the view of the naked man which made the young girl laugh,trying to move her hands only to be swatted by the blonde.

"Has anybody seen my engagement ring?"
Rachel asks, emerging from her bedroom.

She had been a nervous wreck the past week,
dreading having to give back her ring to the
man she had publicly humiliated a few weeks prior at their wedding.
"Yes, it's beautiful." Phoebe waved off,
oblivious to the nervousness in Rachels's
tone.

"Oh, God. Oh, God." Rachel began repeating
over and over again, destroying the
previously perfectly fluffed pillows in hopes of finding her ring, ignoring everyone's warnings and panicked looks.

"Hey Barry, Remember Me? I'm the girl in the veil that's stomped on your heart in front of your entire family!' Oh God, and now I'm going to have to return the ring without the ring which makes it so much harder."
