Ross invited/took his other five friends to attend a party. He went to Monica’s apartment and scurried to push everyone to get dressed quickly. They had to leave in thirty minutes.

Joey and Chandler weren’t getting ready for the party instead they were bickering about a chair. Joey threw mashed potatoes at Chandler but he hit Pheobe’s dress instead. Then Phoebe freak out. She had to put one flower on the dirty part at last because she had no time to change dresses/clothes. Monica felt miserable to get dressed because she heard one old message from her ex-boyfriend, Richard. They broke up some time ago. But she still missed him very much. Rachel couldn’t figure out what she would wear. Ross had been waiting for everyone for twenty minutes but they still weren’t ready to leave. He was rather pissed off at Rachel. Rachel went back to her bedroom to change back into her sportswear. She made up an excuse to tell Ross that she wouldn’t go to the party. Finally, she told Ross he yelled at her in front of their friends, so she didn’t want to go.
Ross apologized and asked Rachel what he could do to show how much he wanted her to be at the party. Joey suggested him to drink chicken fat. Rachel was still unhappy so she echoed that the idea sounded interesting. Just as Ross was about to drink it, Rachel agreed to go. Finally they got two cabs and left in the last five minutes.
