If
F.R.I.E.N.D.S was to be defined in a single sentence, it would be this: the
show that gave us 10 years of awesomeness.
Every
episode, every scene, every character, every relationship and every single
second of this show was wrapped with crazy fun and impeccable humour. While it
is nearly impossible to pen down the most special or amazing episode of the
show that lasted a decade, here are 10 of the gazillion moments that will
surely stay in our hearts forever:
1. “He’s her lobster!”
Since
the beginning of the show, we saw Ross pining after Rachel. But be it Italian
guys or Chinese-looking Americans, something or the other always got in the
way. So, when these two cuties finally got together, the whole world cheered.
Who doesn’t remember the Lobster theory, right?
2. Monica teaching Chandler the 7 erogenous zones
The
day Monica gave the “erogenous zones tutorial” to Chandler, and did the whole
world a favour.
3. When Monica and Rachel lost their apartment
Nobody
could have predicted that what started as a simple bet would lead to Monica and
Rachel losing their apartment to Joey and Chandler. This was undoubtedly one of
the most epic episodes ever!
4. When Phoebe got pregnant
Another
epic thing that happened in this episode? Phoebe got pregnant, with her
brother’s child!
5. When Ross said “Rachel” at the wedding
We
all hated Emily, didn’t we? After rooting for Rachel and Ross for 4 whole
seasons, it killed all us fans to see Ross making such a terrible decision. But
then Ross’s “I, take thee Rachel” restored our faith in this adorable couple
once again.
6. Joey’s reaction to Chandler and Monica’s affair
Monica
and Chandler shocked everyone when they started dating. And though all the
group members had crazy reactions to their affair, Joey’s perhaps was the best.
We could totally feel the torture you went through, Joey; it was difficult for
EVERYONE to keep this big secret to themselves!
7. When Monica proposed Chandler
This
will probably be remembered as one of the most beautiful and emotional scenes
of all time. After a hell lot of chaos, when Monica actually got down on her
knees, and Chandler followed suit, that proposal absolutely won our hearts. We
wept and smiled and danced, because Mondler just deserved to be together.
8. When Rachel had Emma
Apart
from Ross’s hilarious reaction to Rachel’s pregnancy, these two had an
adventurous baby ride. And when little Emma was finally born after 47 hours of
labour, it had us all in tears. Like Monica said, we were all happy that Ross
and Rachel got drunk and had sex!
9. “I got off the plane!”
10
seasons. That’s how long it took for Ross and Rachel to realise that they were
indeed meant to be. After a decade of dating, break-up, a drunk marriage, a
baby and several other crazy adventures later, when this couple was united in
the very last episode of the show, the universe jumped and breathed a sigh of
relief.
10. The Last One
This
episode. The last scene; when you look around and realise you’re never going to
see it all again: Monica’s apartment, The Coffee House, the fun, the laughter
and most importantly, the friendships. But the beauty of this show is that just
when you feel it’s all over, you can always go back to the first page and start
the journey all over again.
Yes,
it broke our hearts to say goodbye to these 6 people who’d been a part of our
lives for a whole decade. But we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect finale.
We couldn’t have asked for a better show.
Advance Happy Friendship Day, everyone! :)
Loads of love,
