TOW The Mugging
Chandler: I got a job in advertising.
Monica: Oh honey that's incredible!
Phoebe: What's the pay like? [everyone stares at her] Oh come on now. If I don't know who makes the most money, how do I know who I like the most? Hey Joey!
Joey: [winks at her]

Chandler: Actually it pays nothing, it's an internship.
Joey: Oh yeah, we have interns at "Days of Our Lives.
Chandler: Right. So it'll be the same, except less sex with you.

Ross: You know, if I didn't already have a job, I think I would be really good in advertising.
Monica: Ross, you did not come up with "Got Milk?"
Ross: Yes I did! I did! [Monica looks at him] [to Joey] I should've written it down.

Monica: Oh! He was so good in that movie of MacBeth.
Rachel: You saw that?
Monica: No, but I saw the previews. They played it right before 'Jackass.'

Ross: And I know we've only gone out twice but I've got a good feeling about her.
Phoebe: Oh, I heard divorce bells.

Mugger: Alright lady, now give me your purse.
Phoebe: No.
Ross: What do you mean, no? I knew you'd be my death, Phoebe Buffay!

Ross: Oh my god, Phoebe, you used to mug people?
Phoebe: Excuse me, Ross, old friends catching up!

Joey: Oh, and he said that I should think less.
Monica: Well, so far, so good.

Chandler: Honey, I'm old!
Monica: What's wrong?
Chandler: I am so much older than these other interns. I cant compete with them.
Monica: So what if you're a little older? Try to look at the positive. You have all this life experience.
Chandler: Yes, but I don't think life experience is going to help me with these. [shows her the shoes he has in a box]

"Kids, kids! Roll your way to childhood obesity!"-Chandler

Chandler: Okay, would you help me try to sell these?
Monica: Okay, have you considered using a girl with huge knockers?
Chandler: I don't think that's the kind of thing they're looking for.
Joey: Hey, that'd work on me. Why do you think I buy Mrs.Butterworth's?

Monica: How do you know the mugger?
Phoebe: I'm sorry I have friends outside the six of us.
Ross: You wanna know how she knew him? Because Phoebe used to mug people.
Monica: Seriously?
Phoebe: Well, I'm not proud of it but you know, sometimes, living on the street and I needed money for food and stuff I...
Monica: Phoebe that is awful.
Phoebe: Well okay, I wasn't rich like you guys, okay? I didn't eat gold and have a flying pony. My mother was killed by a drug dealer.
Monica:Your mother killed herself.
Phoebe: She was a drug dealer.

Monica: Wow, this must have brought back some really bad memories for you,Ross.
Phoebe: Why?
Monica: Well, Ross was mugged as a kid.
Phoebe: You were?
Ross: Yeah, it was pretty tramautic. It was outside St.Mark's Comics. I was just there minding my own business, you know, seeing what kind of trouble Spiderman got into that week..
Monica: [coughs] Wonder Woman [coughs]
Ross: Anyway, I was heading towards this bakery you know to pick up a couple dozen linzertorts for someone [looks at Monica]  when out of nowhere this thug with a pipe jumps out and says 'Give me your money, punk!'
Phoebe: Oh my god.
Ross: I know. And the worst part was they took my backpack, which had all the original artwork I had done for my own comic book, Scienceboy.
Monica: Oh yeah. What was his superpower?
Ross: A superhuman thirst for knowledge. I...I better get to class. Are there any more of your friends I should lookout for on my way, Phoebe?
Phoebe: No. Actually, you might wanna stay away from Jane Street. That's where Stabby Joe works.

Monica: What?
Phoebe: Well back in my mugging days, you know, I worked St.Mark's Comics.
Monica: Yeah..?
Phoebe: Well a pipe was my weapon of choice. And um, pre-teen comic book nerds were my meat.
Monica: So...?
Phoebe: Well there was this one kid who had a sticker on his backpack that said...
Monica & Phoebe together: Geology rocks!
Monica: Oh my god!
Phoebe: I know! I mugged Ross!

"They're so uncomfortable it's like getting kicked in the nuts in your feet"-Chandler

Joey: Hey, that eggnog in the fridge was really great!
Rachel: Joey, that was formula.
Joey: We gotta get more of that!

Chandler: Hey, these aren't that bad. You should suggest these to Ralph Lauren.
Rachel: Okay, first of all that's stupid. And second of all, I'm not allowed to talk to Ralph.

"The cold weather hurts my hip!"-Chandler

Phoebe: Hey Ross. Okay look I know you're still mad at me but could I just talk to you for a sec?
Ross: Sure, go ahead. Oops, sorry [puts hands in the air] Sure go ahead.
Phoebe: I just really wanted to apologize again. And show you something that I think you'll find very exciting. [shows him a box that says "Crap from the street]
Ross: Oh my god, crap from the street!
Phoebe: Look Ross, in this box, are all the things that I got from mugging that  I thought were too special to sell..or smoke. [opens the box] Anyway I was looking through it and I found "Science Boy"! [shows him the comic]
Ross: Oh my god! [sighs] I never thought I'd see this again. It's all here!
Phoebe: Yeah
Ross: What made you save it all these years?
Phoebe: I guess I just thought it was really good. And maybe it'd be worth something one day.
Ross: You really thought "Science Boy" was worth saving?
Phoebe: Yeah, but you should know I have a jar of vaseline and a cat skull in here.
Ross: Still, still this is amazing! Oh my god, thank you Phoebe.
Phoebe: Your welcome. Thank you for "Science Boy". I learned a lot from him.
Ross: Your welcome.

"Wow. That's a big cable bill. You don't have a job but you don't have a problem ordering porn. On a Saturday afternoon. I was in the house!"-Monica
