  Dr. Ross Geller : [at the door]  Guys... there's a *somebody* I'd like you to meet.

  [enters - there's a monkey perched on his shoulder] 

  Monica Geller : [amidst positive exclaiming]  Wait. Wait. What is that?

  Dr. Ross Geller : *That* would be Marcel. Wanna say hi?

  Monica Geller : No. No, I don't!

  Rachel : Oh, he is precious! Where did you get him?

  Dr. Ross Geller : My friend Bethal rescued him from some lab.

  Phoebe : That is so cruel. Why, *why* would a parent name their child Bethal?

  Chandler : Hey, that monkey's got a Ross on his ass!

  Monica Geller : Ross, is - is he gonna live with you, like, in your apartment?

  Dr. Ross Geller : Yeah, I mean, it's kinda quiet since Carol left, so...

  Monica Geller : Why don't you just get a roommate?

  Dr. Ross Geller : Well, no, I think you reach a certain age when a roommate is just kinda pathetic...

  [realizes whom he's talking to] 

  Dr. Ross Geller : Uh, sorry, that's "pathic", which is Sanscrit for "a really cool way to live."
