- Joey arranges a blind date for Phoebe. Chandler is leaving for Tulsa without Monica, because she has got a great job offer.
- Joey and Phoebe are planning to have a dinner in a restaurant and they arrange to get dates for each other. Looking at his address book, Joey finds out that he only has only girl's telephone numbers. He promises Phoebe to find her a male companion for that night. At the Coffee House Joey simply shouts the name "Mike" in order to see if someone responds. A Mike responds and Joey tells him the plan. Meanwhile, Monica has been offered a job in a great restaurant. She's afraid of telling Chandler that she wants to take this job, as it is in Manhattan meaning couldn't move with Chandler to Tulsa. Everyone finds out that Ross stills visits his pediatrician, Dr. Genttleman. He even likes to ask for a sucker when he's leaving doctor's office. At the restaurant, things get complicated, because Joey tells Phoebe that he and Mike are friends from the high school leading to much improvisation, but Phoebe discovers that Mike is a total stranger. Chandler understands that Monica has a great professional opportunity in the restaurant. He tells Monica that she should accept the job, despite the fact that they won't see each other too much. Next day, Mike is at the coffee house and he finds Phoebe to apologize about the other night. Everyone gathers to say goodbye to Chandler in the apartment. Monica tells Chandler that he's the most important thing in her life.—Alejandro Frias
- Unable to get out of moving to Tulsa without losing his job, Chandler and Monica agree to move together so that Chandler can take on the promotion. The move can be for more than a year. Ross says Monica is the glue that holds the group together and shouldn't go. Phoebe calls their apartment. Chandler's boss offers him a deal where he only has to be in Tulsa for 4 days a week and the remaining 3 he can be in NYC. This way Monica doesn't have to move. Chandler tries to find a good restaurant job for Monica in Tulsa, but the city has no fine food culture. So, Monica contacts a headhunter.
However, at the last minute, Monica is offered a great job as a chef at a very famous Manhattan restaurant, Javu's. The decision is made: Monica accepts the job while Chandler agrees to work in Tulsa four days a week and spend the remaining three days in New York and with his friends and wife. Chandler says his tearful goodbyes to everyone. Monica says that her new job is just something that she has to do.
Rachel's pediatrician Dr Wiener drops her as a client for constantly calling him about concerns with Emma. Rachel calls him constantly for every little thing like if she can have caffeine. She even calls him at 3 am, when Emma has hiccups. Eventually Dr Wiener fires him. Ross informs Rachel that he had a great pediatrician (Dr. Gettleman) as a child, and has passed away recently. However, Monica later claims that he is still alive. She also says that maybe Ross got confuses with his childhood therapist (he had a recurring nightmare that Monica was going to eat him). When Rachel takes Emma to Dr. Gettleman, she discovers that Ross is still a patient. Rachel tells Monica and Chandler. But Ross makes fun of Chandler for bringing his security blanket to college.
Joey says that after the whole thing with Rachel, he is ready for a more serious relationship. Joey is kinda funny about names, which rules out Sandy Poopack, Lana TitWiller. Joey and Phoebe agree to find dates for each other and double date together. On the night of the date, Joey has forgotten all about the deal, while Phoebe has already fixed up a woman (Mary Ellen) (She is smart and funny and not opposed to threesomes) for Joey. Upon being pressed by Phoebe, Joey says that her date's name is Mike. He looks in his diary and there are no numbers of guys in there.
At the last minute, Joey finds a guy named Mike (Paul Rudd) at Central Perk (he yells "Mike" inside CEntral Perk, and by chance there is a guy named Mike sitting there) and asks him to act like he and Joey have known each other for years. Mike just got out of a 9 yr relationship. Mike is a lawyer.
Eventually, Phoebe discovers the truth (she asks Mike how many sisters does Joey have, and Joey trips up by holding up 6 fingers) and storms out of the date. Later, Mike meets Phoebe at the coffee shop and admits to having a good time on the date and asks Phoebe for a second one, to which she agrees after Mike plays the air piano for her.
