Goofs

The previous episode ends in a cliffhanger, where Ross walks in when Joe and Rachel are kissing. Rachel is the first to break the silence, saying, "I am so sorry...". When this episode begins from the moment Ross walks in it is Joey who breaks the silence. However, this is because the first few seconds of the episode are intended to be a recap and not a direct repeat of the previous episode.

Ross sees Joey kissing Rachel!

Ross sees Rachel and Joey kissing each other and immediately freezes,while they both try to explain themselves to him. After recovering his senses, Ross stays angry with the situation, but he acts as if he was totally happy with it, inviting Joey and Rachel to have dinner with him and Charlie. (Ross acts in a very bizarre way)

Phoebe receives Frank Jr, her brother, in Central Perk. He tells her that he is working a lot and almost doesn't have time available, since his kids make him occupied the whole day. He also tells Phoebe that sometimes he wishes to have 2 kids instead of 3, and he asks her if she wants to take one to take care.

Monica and Chandler are trying to adopt a kid, but they are full of doubts about the different ways to adopt. Phoebe tells them to talk to Bill and Colleen, their friends who adopted a boy named Owen. Once they arrive in Bill's and Colleen's house, Chandler ruins everything telling Owen that he is adopted. (Owen didn't know!)
