The One with the Chicken Pox

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Phoebe wants to go out with Ryan (Charlie Sheen), a guy in the navy that she used to go out and that will be in New York to stay many days. To make things complicated for Phoebe, Ben, Ross' kid, has chicken pox, and everybody except Phoebe already had it. Ryan also didn't have chicken pox, so he catches from Phoebe and they both stay sick for the whole time that Ryan stays in the city.

Joey gets a new job with Chandler as a processor. He uses his skills as an actor to pretend to be a processor, but he goes a little too far with his imagination.

Richard and Monica talk about Monica's strange habits in doing things, and she stays a little sad that Richard doesn't share the same obsessive habits that she usually does.
