Storyline

Monica is a wandering zombie after dumping Richard for not sharing her child-wish. Ross confides in Rachel his sexual fantasy is princess Leia's gold bikini in Star Wars, but doesn't appreciate her telling it to blabbermouth Phoebe; when Rachel assures him boys miss out on true bonding because they don't tell each-other intimate details, he tries it with Chandler who brings up a very unfit confidence. As Joey really can't handle the prospect of Chandler not dumping Janice as usual, the two try spending whole 'day of fun' together for their common friend Chandler's sake. Written by KGF Vissers

The One with the Princess Leia Fantasy
23 June 2011 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

This episode does kind of bore me. And none of the story lines is funny enough or interesting to me

Yeah, the best of this episode is of course the Princess Leia fantasy. I do like how the guys decide to start sharing sexual stories with each other like girls do. And then Chandler confesses that he thinks of his mom during sex. Turns out that so does Joey (thinks of Chandler's mom) and it ruins Ross's life since next time he has sex, his mom pops up in his head. But other than those few scenes there is not much done with it.

And I seriously didn't care for Monica. It was her fault, plus Cortney Cox didn't play it too well.

Even Jeoy and Janice story didn't make it for me.
