Ever since Friends came to HBO Max, I've been deep in the middle of a rewatch — and I just got to one of the most iconic episodes of the series, "The One with the Embryos," so I had to talk about it. Here are all the moments (aka, the whole episode) that make it so memorable:
1. At the beginning, when Rachel has a very relatable freakout and bangs on Joey and Chandler's door after being woken up by the chick (aka rooster) at six in the morning:
2. When Chandler and Joey claim to know more about Monica and Rachel than they know about them, and will prove it by guessing the contents of Rachel's shopping bag:
3. Which puts Ross into full gameshow host mode...
4. ...and prompts Chandler to tell Ross what we've all wanted to tell Ross for 26 years now:
5. Once it's time for the ~real~ contest, a bet for $100, Ross reads the categories and his delivery kills me every time:
6. When they do a coin toss to see who goes first, but no one calls it, so they end up just staring at Ross:
7. When Joey reveals Monica's biggest pet peeve:
8. When Monica reveals what phenomenon scares the "bejesus" out of Chandler:
9. When Joey took a shot at figuring out Ross and Monica's grandma's name:
10. When Rachel incorrectly guesses the name that comes on Chandler's TV Guide in the mail:
11. When Ross reveals he actually created a lightning round in the event of a tie:
12. And then Monica tries to raise the stakes by suggesting they play for $300:
13. When Monica then suggests that if the guys lose, they give up the rooster:
14. And then when Chandler takes the stakes to a whole new level:
15. When Rachel is nervous about betting the apartment and Monica tries to show her how confident she is with her steady hand:
16. When Chandler can't stop jumping before his lightning round questions:
17. When Chandler reveals what Rachel claims to be her favorite movie...
18. ...and Joey reveals her actual favorite movie:
19. When Ross asks where Monica got a pencil stuck when she was a little kid, and Chandler guesses very, very wrong:
20. When Joey and Chandler are counting up Monica's categories of towels:
21. When the teams curse each other out, Friends style:
22. When Monica reveals Joey's childhood imaginary friend's name...
23. ...and Rachel reveals his profession:
24. And Joey just has this very pure reaction to it:
25. When Monica and Rachel are stumped over what Chandler's job is, and Rachel finally blurts out:
26. And Monica shouts in agony:
27. And then she has a guttural reaction when she realizes they've lost the apartment:
28. When Joey and Chandler do this celebratory little dance when they realize they've won:
29. And then joyously move in their foosball table right away:
30. When Rachel demonstrates her "steady hand" while demanding that they won't move out of the apartment:
31. And then when she is absolutely distraught while Phoebe waits to see if she is pregnant with Frank and Alice's baby, and this picture is honestly just worth a thousand words:
32. And then when Phoebe writes a very Phoebe song for the potential baby:
33. When Chandler (sandwich in hand!) and Joey glide into their new apartment on the porcelain dog:
34. When Phoebe finds out she's pregnant, and Frank hilariously says:
35. Because, in true Friends style, even though the friends were bickering, they stopped for a massive group hug as soon as Phoebe got the good news:
