*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Phoebe is afraid to go to the dentist, because every time she does, someone dies by coincidence. She stays the biggest part of the episode complaining about her toothache.

Monica and Rachel take care of Ben, but Monica, while playing with him, bumps his head really hard on the roof. They try to cover the bump on his head in the hope of Ross not discuss with them.

When Chandler decides to give an expensive birthday gift, Joey finally tells him about Janice kissing her ex husband. Chandler talks to Janice about the situation, and she tells him that she likes him and her ex husband. Chandler decides to leave Janice in order to let her(Janice's) kid with both parents together.
