- Quotes
Joey Tribbiani: Look, I don't usually ask out women that I meet in coffeehouses.
Gunther: [eavesdropping] Ha!
Joey Tribbiani: [turns around, sarcastically] Gesundheit.
Hayley: I would love to go out with you.
Joey Tribbiani: Really? Great... did I actually ask you?
Hayley: No, that's just where you were going. I just figured that I'd help you out; you don't seem like the kind of guy that does this a lot.
Gunther: Ha!
Joey Tribbiani: [turns around again] Seriously, Gunther - you should see someone about that cold; if it gets much worse you could *die*!

Joey's story with the girl is serviceable without really offering any sort of comedic or dramatic peak. The problem with his character at this point in the show is that he is neither particularly funny (bar certain rare exceptions) nor a dramatically interesting character and so this storyline, as harmless and tolerable a viewing as it is, does not excel.
Neither does the Phoebe plot and the idea that it is ridiculous for someone in their early thirties not having been in a serious relationship doesn't strike me as pathetic as it seems to strike Phoebe. Ross more than makes up for it, almost as per usual, with some terrific moments (the exchanges with Rudd's Mike are magnificent) and David Schwimmer absolutely shines yet again. The real underrated talent of this show.
Very decent episode that would be quite forgettable without the Ross/Phoebe storyline.
