- Ross accompanies Rachel to Long Island after Rachel's father Leonard Green (Ron Leibman) has a heart attack, much to his mild displeasure due to his history with her father. They end up spending the night at Rachel's house, where Ross enters her childhood room for the first time. While they talk, Rachel attempts to get Ross to sleep with her, but Ross realizes that she's only doing it because she's upset and doesn't want to take advantage of her vulnerable state. Ross hasn't had sex in 6 months and is very proud of his self control.
Ironically, she is left angered by this the following morning, leading Ross to say that them having sex is 'off the table'. They argue and Ross yells that they should never have sex again... right as Rachel's father appears behind him and glares at him with a deadly look. The two talk after returning home and, while Rachel admits that (Ross was right and that she was vulnerable and he did the right thing by not taking advantage of her) it's for the best they don't go down that road again, but also admits that sex with him is really good. Eventually, Rachel cracks and says that them getting back together is 'never off the table' considering the connection they have and leaves to go to her room, leading Ross to admit to himself that he agrees with her that "it's never off the table".
Erica comes to town (She has never been to NYC and wants to visit all the touristy places, and get to know Chandler and Monica a bit better) and Monica and Chandler find out that the baby's father could be two different people: a guy who was good-looking and went to college on a scholarship, or a guy who is in prison for killing his father with a shovel. Chandler is really worried and cant sleep at night thinking that the shovel killer is the father of the baby. However Monica soon finds out the good-looking man has to be the father and not the "shovel killer." It seems Erica doesn't quite understand how a baby is made.
Phoebe, back from her honeymoon, helps Joey prepare for an audition by teaching him how to speak French (since the fact he's fluent in it is one of the many falsehoods on his resume). Joey does not progress well and just speaks gibberish, thinking he's doing a great job. Phoebe quits at first, but later goes to the audition and explains to the director in French that Joey is her mentally disabled younger brother so he'll take pity on Joey. The director agrees.
Later the two go through Joey's resume taking off all of his fake skills. While tap dancing, archery and horseback riding are all removed, Joey falsely tries to prove to Phoebe he can drink a gallon of milk in ten seconds, of which he can't drink even half a gallon in more than 30 seconds with more than half the gallon of milk flowing down his body down on the floor, essentially proving he can't do that either
