Storyline

Chandler's boss orders him to tell his foxy junior co-worker Nina that she's fired but he can't and ends up dating her instead. He tells the boss she's in therapy as she is unable to handle or even remember her sacking. Chandler even promises her a raise! Ross's monkey Marcel has become systematically troublesome, yet he's the only one who masters the TV control's foreign language channels in Monica's apartment. Ross joins Carol and Susan in Lamaze class which turns into a disaster when Carol can't come and he has to play her part. A birth video makes Carol decide 'not to go through' with the birth anyway. Chandler and Joey find Phoebe's twin sister Ursula working in a bar. Joey asks for Phoebe's blessing to date her sister which is reluctantly given. Written by KGF Vissers

The one where we see Ursula
22 October 2007 | by (Brazil) – See all my reviews

Joey and Chandler meet Ursula, Phoebe's twin sister, when they go to the Riff's restaurant to eat something and Ursula is working there as a waitress. Joey feels attracted to Ursula,and starts to date her, enjoying her company more and more, to Phoebe's disapproval.

Ross goes to a Lamaze class with Susan and Carol, giving us pretty funny moments.

Chandler has trouble with Nina, a cute worker of his job that he is interested, but he needs to fire.

Rachel injuries her leg, going to the hospital with Monica. Since Rachel doesn't have any insurance, she and Monica decide to change their identities. They ask two cute doctors to go out on a date with them, but when they start to fight, they scare the doctors away.
