The Last One: Part 2

Wonderful ending of a wonderful show.

It is very sweet to see Joey with the birds. Very funny to see Joey walking around the apartment looking for them and Chandler and Monica walking in on them. "We were wondering why it takes you so long, but now we understand that you were doing THIS". Great! And then another sweet moment between Chandler and Joey when they need to say good bye to their table

Phoebe was awesome in this episode. Her being a crazy driver. The whole story with the filange that made the whole plane in panic, and also her yelling "Raaaaacheeeel!" and saving the situation!

And then after this it is almost hard to control tears. Ross being heartbroken because Rachel left, him listening to this message where she says that she loves him...This message is done greatly, especially towards the end when we realize that Rachel wanted back to him but we don't know if she made it and then we hear "I got of the plane" right behind Ross. What a great ending for their story And then the final scene where everyone puts their keys on the table. Very sad to see that!
