[Rachel]
Monica, Monica, look at this lamp. Is this tacky or what? We have to have this.
[Monica]
Rach, I think we have enough regular lamps.
[Rachel]
What? Oh come on! I mean it's-it's not like a-it's not like I'm asking for this girly clock or anything. Which by the way I also think is really cool.
[Monica]
It doesn't go with any of my stuff.
[Rachel]
Well, what about my stuff?
[Monica]
You don't have any stuff.
[Rachel]
You still think of it as your apartment, don't you?
[Monica]
Mmm, no.
[Rachel]
Yes you do. You think of it as your apartment, and I'm just someone who rents a room.
[Monica]
Mmm...
[Rachel]
Okay, while you "mmm" on that for a while, I'm gonna go find a place for my new lamp.
[Monica]
Hey Rach? You know what we hadn't played in a while?
[Rachel]
What?
[Monica]
Hide the lamp?
[Rachel]
Okay, Monica, let it go.
[Monica]
Did you know I was allergic to shellfish?
[Rachel]
Well then you'll just have to eat the other lamps.
[Monica]
Okay, all right. It was an accident, I swear. Alright, I was-I was putting on my jacket and the and the thing and and the and the lamp and it broke.
[Rachel]
Oh please, Monica, you've always hated my lamp. And now all of a sudden, it's just magically–it's just broken?
[Monica]
Phoebe? Tell her!
[Phoebe]
Okay, I didn't see it because I was putting on my jacket, but um, I want to believe you.
[Rachel]
Hey Chandler, Monica just broke my seashell lamp.
[Chandler]
Neat. I'm gonna die alone.
[Rachel]
Okay, you win. Oh, what you got there? Something else that's not yours that you can break?
[Monica]
No, um I know you like this and I-I want you to have it. I think it'll look good in our apartment.
[Rachel]
Thank you.
[Monica]
That's fine.
