Harriet can see Matt is stressing out even though it's only early in the week. So she breaks into her Holly Hunter impression, a character she learnt is a comfort to him a long time ago. Cal can see what's really going on.
Lauren does her best work when she's helping others. Ryan figures it's their turn to return the favour.
Cal notices a distance change in everybody. He's not sure if it's all such a good thing. But, at least no one is looking for more of an explanation about Thursday night's debacle with the Animal Kingdom Axis of Evil.
Worthy and deserving are definitely two words Chandler Bing would use to describe Monica Geller and it was a damn shame she couldn't enjoy Thanksgiving. He might not like the day all that much, but he wasn't about to let her fall into his funk or get any less than she deserves. A companion piece to Ubuntu.
The act of being kind to others with no ulterior motive. Because Chandler has a kind streak a mile wide and has always taken responsibility of even the things he can't control. Companion piece to Merecedor.
Monica and Chandler have spend a week trying to figure out how to spend time together without their friends around, and they're given the perfect opportunity on the way to the hospital (and once they're there).
Harriet knows the photoshoot is a bad idea, Tom and Simon have hit her over the head with reasons why. But not in terms that make any relevant sense to her. One voice, a little salacious, a little bit silly, gets the message across. A companion piece to "Being Threatened And Being Saved."
While the writing team is falling apart, Matthew Albie makes it his mission to build someone up.
Slowly and gradually taking someone's things until you've built up a collection of all their things, usually a neighbour or friend's things. Turns out both Monica and Chandler are thieves. Good thing their belongings aren't his or her's, but theirs.
"If you meet somebody and your heart pounds, your hands shake, your knees go weak, that's not the one. When you meet your 'soul mate,' you'll feel calm. No anxiety, no agitation. You aren't swept away. You are grounded." The friends of Mondler witness that change in Monica and Chandler and can't believe how they didn't see it earlier.
Something cute happens in the middle of a meeting. Unprofessional as it is, Chandler can't help himself but be proud of his children.
The Bible says lying is a sin. Every book of the Bible says lying is a sin. If Matt knows anything, he knows Harriet will not lie, it's a big word for her. He has to talk to her before Mary accuses her of it. A Breaking News drabble.
Watching Fox's TV series reminds Monica of something she wanted to try with Chandler years ago. She's waited long enough to have this with him and she's incredibly excited about the outcome.
Matt and Harriet and the 4A.M Miracle.
Matt needs a racquetball partner for his lunch break and no one is available. Jordan doesn't know how to play but suggests they try to learn a different game and get to know each other a little better.
There was no humour or hyperbole in Matt's voice as he told her about Suzanne's big brown eyes imploring him to stop. Desperately, Harriet wanted to let him know that it was okay. That they'd deal with this, and that he'd not be alone in the clean-up. Harriet was not going to lose Matt. Never again. She needed him to know that. That this was it. The two of them. Forever.
"Matt's been writing a proposal for you?" Harriet leant her elbows onto her knees to gauge the expression on Danny's face. She wanted to get his mind off the fact that his daughter - Jordan's baby - had been born and she was genuinely curious about the conversation the pair of them had just had with Matthew.
What did Alex mean when he said "I looked for you everywhere" when he didn't know a single thing about Isabel?
Chandler and Monica get a steamy early start to their day.
Chandler finally comes home and Monica welcomes him with open arms. A proper Mondler reunion.
