Synopsis:
The One After Vegas
Ross and Rachel wake up in bed together, remembering almost nothing about the night before. At breakfast, their friends ask them about it. Shocked, they decide to get an annulment once they`re back in New York. Ross tells Rachel he`s taken care of it, but he hasn`t. Neither Chandler nor Monica wants to go through with their own marriage plans, but each one is scared to back out. They decide to look for another sign... but even though the signs keep coming, they keep denying it. Finally, Chandler suggests they live together. Joey (who still has Phoebe`s cab) convinces her to keep him company on the drive home. He promises to make it a fun road trip, but he ends up sleeping most the time.
The One Where Ross Hugs Rachel
Ross hasn`t gotten the annulment yet... but he has gotten a little crazy. It seems the idea of a 3rd failed marriage has pushed him over the deep end. Phoebe (and her panel of women) decide Ross is still in love with Rachel. Ross is in such denial about this that to prove them wrong he goes to his lawyer (Russell) to take care of the annulment... but finds that it`s more complicated than expected, and Rachel will have to be told the truth. Chandler and Monica break the news of their live-in plans, first with Joey (who is happy for them, but sad to be losing Chandler) and then to Rachel (who doesn`t seem to have much of a reaction at all... until she takes it seriously). Rachel is so sad that Ross still can`t tell her the truth.
The One With Ross`s Denial
Phoebe has a roommate named Denise nobody has heard of before. Rachel tries to find a new apartment, and receives offers from Joey and Ross. Ross goes back and forth on whether he thinks it`s really a good idea. Phoebe continues telling Ross he`s in love with Rachel, and he keeps denying it. Chandler and Monica fight about what to do with Rachel`s room and Chandler`s furniture. For a while it looks like no one will be moving anywhere. Joey searches for a new roommate, and it`s clear what he`s really looking for. Ross still doesn`t tell Rachel that they`re still married.
The One Where Joey Loses His Insurance
Rachel packs her things and moves to Ross`s apartment. Once there, she intercepts a phone call from Ross`s lawyer revealing they`re still married. Phoebe`s psychic tells her she`s going to die this week. Ross becomes a guest lecturer at NYU. He`s so worried his presentation won`t go well that he panics and presents it with an phony English accent. Joey`s medical benefits lapse because he hasn`t done enough acting recently. He contacts his agent, Estelle (who mistakenly believes he`d gone to another agent), to arrange for some auditions. He gets a severe hernia before auditioning, but refuses to go to the hospital until he has insurance again.
The One With Joey`s Porsche
Rachel and Ross go to a judge to get their annulment, but they air too much dirty laundry. The judge decides they don`t qualify for an annulment, so they go to Ross`s lawyer for a divorce. Ross makes it pretty obvious that he still loves Rachel. Rachel reveals that it was her drunken idea to get married. Joey finds the keys to someone`s Porsche. He decides to wait by the car until the owner shows up. He gets mistaken for the owner, and likes the attention he gets so much that even after the owner takes the car away, he keeps up the charade. Phoebe, Monica and Chandler take care of Frank and Alice`s babies. Chandler gets a toy stuck in his throat and Monica takes him to the doctor. Phoebe has to take care of the babies by herself.
The One On The Last Night
Chandler tries to get Joey to accept some money so he`ll be able to get by for a few months without a roommate. Joey won`t take it, but Chandler invents a game called "Cups" and lets Joey win the money. Later, Joey teaches Ross to play Cups, and loses all the money to him. While packing on Rachel`s last night in the apartment, Phoebe`s misguided advice leads Monica and Rachel to fighting. Ross doesn`t want to help with the packing, so he says he has to take care of Ben. Since Monica can see into his apartment, he makes a "fake Ben" to fool her.
The One Where Phoebe Runs
Rachel and Phoebe, new roommates, decide to run together in the park each day. Phoebe`s weird running style embarrasses Rachel.
