Description

Scene 1

MRS GREEN: [laughing] You have some life here, sweetie.

RACHEL: I know. And Mom, I realize you and Daddy were upset when I didn&`&t marry Barry and get the big house in the suburbs with all the security and everything, but this is just so much better for me, you know?

MRS GREEN: I do. You didn&`&t love Barry. And I&`&ve never seen you this happy. I look at you and I think, oh, this is what I want.

RACHEL: For...me.

MRS GREEN: Well, not just for you.

RACHEL: Well, what do you mean?

MRS GREEN: I&`&m uh, considering leaving your father.


Scene 2

ROSS: And you had no idea they weren&`&t getting along?

RACHEL: None.

JOEY: They didn&`&t fight a lot?

RACHEL: No! They didn&`&t even talk to each other. God, how was I supposed to know they were having problems?

RACHEL: I just can&`&t believe this is happening. I mean, when I was little, everybody&`&s parents were getting divorced. I just figured as a grownup I wouldn&`&t have to worry about this.

MONICA: Is there any chance that you can look at this as flattering? I mean, she&`&s doing it because she wants to be more like you.

RACHEL: Well, then, you know, couldn&`&t she have just copied my haircut?



Scene 3


MRS GREEN: This is so much fun, just the girls. You know what we should do? Does anybody have any marijuana?

RACHEL: God!

MONICA: All right, look, nobody&`&s smoking pot around all this food.

MRS GREEN: That&`&s fine. I never did it. I just thought I might. So, what&`&s new in sex?

RACHEL: Oh! What&`&s new in sex?

MRS GREEN: The only man I&`&ve ever been with is your father.

MONICA: I&`&m dicing, I&`&m dicing, I don&`&t hear anything.

MRS GREEN: I mean, this is no offense to your dad, sweetie, but I was thinking there might be more.

RACHEL: Oh, I&`&m sorry. You know what? I cannot have this conversation with you. I mean, god, you just come in here, and drop this bomb on me, before you even tell Daddy. What? What do you want? Do you want my blessing?

MRS GREEN: No.

RACHEL: You want me to talk you out of it?

MRS GREEN: No.

RACHEL: Then what? What do you want?

MRS GREEN: I guess I just figured of all people you would understand this.

RACHEL: Why on earth would I understand this?

MRS GREEN: You didn&`&t marry your Barry. I did.

RACHEL: Oh.
