In the effort to make forget with Ross an important birthday day with Carol, Joey and Chandler decide to take it along to a match of Hockey where the team of the Rangers of New York plays. The evening does not occur well, Ross finds things which make him point out Carol and has the nose struck by a metal disc of hockey. While they are at the hospital, Chandler and Joey learn that Carol was the only woman with whom Ross slept. They are also deceived by a sadistic nurse who has fun them and which is found struck by the metal disc.

Three former friends of Rachel - Leslie enclosure, Kiki lately been engaged and Joanne recently promoted lawyer come to drink glass with the Central Perk. Their visit ends up making depress Rachel, which starts to call into question its decision not to be itself married.

Monica invites Phoebe to spend the night at it, because his/her grandmother has a new boyfriend and they do much noise to the bed (they are not protected and are deaf), with the result that it has not slept for several days. The 3 girls then have a festival between girls with Pizza, Rhum and margarita, concoctée with the manner “of drinking a small punch”.

Rachel, amazed by the visit at his/her three former friends, ends up inflating Monica and Phoebe. Whereas Rachel believes that the things cannot be worse, the deliveryman of pizza pie is mistaken in recipient, it brings to them the pizza pie of George Stephanopoulos, an adviser of the White House. Monica accepts the pizza pie and indicates to Rachel that George is a sexy man. As he lives opposite, they decide on the matter with binoculars. Later, once effects of the festival " to drink small a rhum" start to be felt, each girl exchanges their secrecies: Monica already served as the meat in Phoebe by saying to him that it was food vegetarian; Phoebe slept with a guy that Monica had just left, just two hours after their rupture.
