Trivia
Both Lisa Kudrow and Matt LeBlanc are actually fluent in French.

Goofs
When Monica removes her coat after Erica leaves the kitchen, she drops her scarf on the ground and doesn't pick it up through the entire scene. Monica leaving any piece of clothing on the floor for more than a few seconds is unlikely.

Quotes
Joey: My audition is tomorrow. Che ble blah. Me la pee! Oublah! Poo.

Alternate versions
Some networks have chosen to remove Phoebe's remark to the director about Joey being a little retarded. This has most likely been done in an effort to be more politically correct.
