- Cats CAN lead you to a guy!
Summary
There’s a blackout in Manhattan and Chandler is stuck in an ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacher. The rest of the gang is in Monica’s apartment talking about the weirdest places they’ve done it. Rachel says she’s never had the kind of passion in a relationship that the other guys have. Ross tries to comfort her by saying he see’s “great passion in her future.” Joey (falsely) predicts Ross and Rachel will never happen. Ah, silly Joey.
Joey convinces Ross to ask her out that night. Joey tries to divert Monica from interrupting by telling her Ross is planning her surprise birthday party. Phoebe gets upset that she is always the last to know everything, and lets the secret out that Monica had a crush on Joey when he first moved into the building. In the middle of Ross working up the nerve to ask Rachel out, a stray cat jumps on his shoulders and attacks him, ruining any chance he had at impressing Rachel that night.
While trying to find the owner of the cat, Rachel meets Paolo in the hallway. Her lack of passion problem – well, it appears to be solved. Ross tries to tell Paolo he and Rachel are a thing and please oh please, back off, but it doesn’t work.
Chandler keeps trying to figure out a way to impress Jill, and after finally accepting a piece of gum she offered. (“Gum would be perfection!”), he tries to blow a bubble and instead spits it out clear across the room. Trying to recover, he puts it back in his mouth, realizes it’s NOT his gum, and then starts to choke on somebody else’s discarded gum. Jill gives him the heimlich and breaks the tension. They play silly games with pens.
