ROSS: She's not here yet. She's not here. She's having my baby and she's not here.

MONICA: I'm sure everything's fine. Has her water broke yet?

ROSS: I don't know, but when I spoke to her, she said she had already passed the mucous plug.

JOEY: Do we have to know about that?

MONICA: Joey, what are you gonna do when you have a baby?

JOEY: I'm gonna be in the waitin' room, handing out cigars.

CHANDLER: Yes, Joey's made arrangements to have his baby in a
movie from the 50's.

ROSS: God, I don't believe this. She could be giving birth in the cab.

RACHEL: Oh, Ross, relax. It's probably like two dollars for the
first contraction, and then fifty cents for each additional
contraction. What, it's ok when Chandler does it?

CHANDLER: You have to pick your moments.

PHOEBE: Did I miss it, did I miss it?

ROSS: She's not even here yet.

MONICA: What's with the guitar?

PHOEBE: I just thought we might be here for awhile. You know,
things might get musical.

ROSS: Where the hell have you been?

SUSAN: We stopped at the gift shop.

CAROL: I was looking at stuffed animals, and Susan wanted a Chunky.

ROSS: Susan wanted a Chunky. We're having a baby, ok, a baby, you
don't stop for Chunkys.

CHANDLER: I used to have that bumper sticker. You see what I mean.

ROSS: Stopped for a chunky.

CAROL: Let it go, Ross.

SUSAN: I got an extra one. You want this?

ROSS: No.

FRANZBLAU: Hey, how's my favorite parenting team doing?

ROSS: Dr. Franzblau, hi.

FRANZBLAU: So, I understand you're thinking of having a baby?
Well, I see you're nine months pregnant. That's a good
start. How you doing with your contractions?

CAROL: Oh, I love them. Each one's like a little party in my uterus.

SUSAN: They're every four minutes and last 55 seconds.

ROSS: 59 seconds. Quartz, ha.

SUSAN: Swiss quartz, ha, ha.

CAROL: Am I allowed to drink anything.

FRANZBLAU: Ice chips, just ice chips. They're at the nurses' station.

ROSS: I'll get it.

SUSAN: No, I'm getting it. I'll be right back.

ROSS: I got it--I'm getting it!

RACHEL: Hi, I thought you might like some ice chips.

CAROL: Thanks.

RACHEL: And if you need anything else, I--do not believe we've met.
Hi. I'm uh Rachel Green. I'm Carol's ex-husband's sister's
roommate.

FRANZBLAU: It is nice to meet you. I'm Dr. Franzblau. I'm your
roommate's brother's ex-wife's obstetrician.

RACHEL: Oh, that's funny!

MONICA: I want a baby.

CHANDLER: Mmmm. Not tonight, honey. I got an early day tomorrow.

MONICA: Get up. Come on. Let's get some coffee.

CHANDLER: Oh, ok, 'cause we never do that.

JOEY: Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Shoot, or just fall down. That's good too.

LYDIA: Knick fan?

JOEY: Oh, yeah.

LYDIA: Oh, boy, do they suck.

JOEY: Hey, listen, lady....whoa.

LYDIA: Look, look at your man, Ewing. Nice shot. You know what,
he couldn't hit water if he was standing on a boat.

JOEY: Oh yeah? And who do you like?

LYDIA: The Celtics.

JOEY: The Celtics? Ha. They couldn't hit a boat if...wait.
They suck, all right?

LYDIA: Oh, shut up. You know, it's a rebuilding year. You...waah!

JOEY: Wha? Wha..aa? Let me get the father. Hey, we need a father
over here! We need a father!

LYDIA: There is no father.

JOEY: Oh, oh, oh, sorry.

LYDIA: Ok, that's ok. I'm fine. I'm...oh!

JOEY: Oh, uh, ok. Right this way. All the other pregnant women
seem to be goin' in here.

LYDIA: Ok.

PHOEBE: (singing) They're tiny and chubby and so sweet to touch,
and soon they'll grow up and resent you so much. Now
they're yelling at you and you don't know why, you cry and
you cry and you cry. And you cry and you cry and you cry...
Thanks, Ross.

ROSS: Yeah. I'm paying you to stop.

PHOEBE: Ok.

MONICA: Oh, look, twins. Hi, guys. Oh, cute, cute. No fair. I don't
even have one. How come they get two?

CHANDLER: You'll get one.

MONICA: Oh yeah? When?

CHANDLER: All right. I'll tell you what. When we're 40, if neither
one of us are married, what do you say you and I get
together and have one?

MONICA: Why won't I be married when I'm 40?

CHANDLER: Oh, no, no. I just meant hypothetically.

MONICA: Ok, hypothetically, why won't I be married when I'm 40?

CHANDLER: No, no, no.

MONICA: What is it? Is there something fundamentally unmarriable
about me?

CHANDLER: Uh, uh.

MONICA: Well?

CHANDLER: Dear god! This parachute is a knapsack!

RACHEL: Hey.

PHOEBE: Hey. Ooh, look at you, dressy-dress.

MONICA: Did you go home and change?

RACHEL: Yeah, well, it's an important day. I wanna look nice. Um,
has uh Dr. Franzblau been by?

MONICA: No, I haven't seen him.

RACHEL: Well, where is he? He is supposed to be here. What if the
baby needs him?

CHANDLER: Rachel, what is the deal with you and doctors, anyway?
Was like your father a doctor?

RACHEL: Yeah, why?

CHANDLER: No reason.

LYDIA: Mom, we've been through this. No, I'm not calling him. I
don't care if it is his kid, the guy's a jerk. No, I'm not
alone. Joey's here. What do you mean, Joey who? Joey who?
Joey Tribbiani. Yes, ok. Hold on. She wants to talk to you.
Take the phone.

JOEY: HI, yeah, it's me. Oh, no no no, we're just friends. Yeah,
I'm single. 25. An actor. Hello?

LYDIA: She's not much of a phone person.

JOEY: Yeah, so, uh, so, uh, what's the deal with this father
guy, I mean, if someone was havin' my baby somewhere, I'd
wanna know about it, you know?

LYDIA: Hey, Knick fan, am I interested in your views on fatherhood?
Uh, no.

JOEY: Ok, look, maybe I should just go.

LYDIA: Maybe you should.

JOEY: Good luck, and uh, take care, huh? You know what the Celtics
problem is? They let the players run the team.

LYDIA: Oh, that is so not true.

JOEY: Oh, it is.

LYDIA: It isn't.

JOEY: It is.

LYDIA: Isn't!

ROSS: Breathe.

SUSAN: Breathe.

ROSS: Breathe.

SUSAN: Breathe.

ROSS: Breathe.

SUSAN: Breathe.

CAROL: You're gonna kill me!

ROSS: 15 more seconds, 14, 13, 12...

CAROL: Count faster.

SUSAN: It's gonna be ok, just remember, we're doing this for
Jordie. Just keep focusing on Jordie.

ROSS: Who the hell is Jordie?

SUSAN: Your son.

ROSS: No no no. I don't have a son named Jordie. We all agreed,
my son's name is Jamie.

CAROL: Well, Jamie was the name of Susan's first girlfriend, so
we went back to Jordie.

ROSS: What? Whoa, whoa whoa whoa, what do you mean back to Jordie?
We never landed on Jordie, we just passed by it during the
whole Jessy, Cody, Dylan fiasco.

CAROL: Ow, ow, ow, ow, leg cramp, leg cramp, leg cramp.

ROSS: I got it.

SUSAN: I got it.

ROSS: I got it! Hey, you get to sleep with her, I get the cramps.

SUSAN: No, you don't.

CAROL: All right, that's it. I want both of you out.

ROSS: Why?

SUSAN: He started it!

ROSS: No, you started it.

SUSAN: You did!

CAROL: I don't care. I am trying to get a person out of my body
here, and you're not making it any easier.

ROSS: But--

CAROL: Now go!

ROSS: Thanks a lot.

SUSAN: See what you did.

ROSS: Yeah, listen--

CAROL: OUT!

NURSE: Breathe, breathe, breathe...

LYDIA: Oh, no.

JOEY: Ew! What is that? Something exploded!

NURSE: It's just her water breaking. Calm down, will you?

JOEY: Water breaking, what do you mean? What's that, water breaking?

NURSE: Breathe, breathe, breathe.

ROSS: Please. This is so your fault.

SUSAN: How, how is this my fault?

ROSS: Look, Carol never threw me out of her room before you came
along.

SUSAN: Yeah? Well, there's a lot of things Carol never did before
I came along.

ROSS: You tryin' to be clever?

SUSAN: You know what your problem is? You are so threatened by me.

ROSS: Oh, I'm threatened by you?

SUSAN: Yes.

PHOEBE: Hey, hey, ok, all right, that's it! Get in here. Come on.
My god, you guys, I don't believe you. There are children
coming into the world in this very building and your
negative fighting noises are not the first thing they
should be hearing. So just stop all the yelling, just
stop it!

ROSS: Yeah, Susan.

PHOEBE: Don't make me do this again, I don't like my voice like
this. Ok, who wants to hear something ironic?

ALL: Help!

ROSS: I'm having a baby in here! Ok, everyone stand back. Ow.

CAROL: Are they here yet?

RACHEL: No, honey, they're not, but don't worry, because we are
going to find them, and until we do, we are all here for
you, ok?

CAROL: Ok.

RACHEL: Ok?

CAROL: Ok.

RACHEL: Ok, so anyway, you were telling me about Paris, it sounds
fascinating.

FRANZBLAU: It really was. There was this great little pastry
shop right by my hotel. There you go, dear.

JOEY: Come on, Lydia, you can do it. Push! Push 'em out, push
'em out, harder, harder. Push 'em out, push 'em out, way
out! Let's get that ball and really move, hey, hey, ho,
ho. Let's-- I was just--yeah, right. Push! Push!

SUSAN: What're you gonna do, suck the door open?

ROSS: Help! Help!

PHOEBE: (singing) They found their bodies the very next day,
they found their bodies the very next...la la la la la la.

SUSAN/ROSS: Help!

MONICA: Now, Mom, everything's going fine, really. Yeah, Ross
is great. He's uh, he's in a whole other place. No, he's
gone. No no, you don't have to fly back, really. What do
you mean this might be your only chance? Would you stop?
I'm only 26, I'm not even thinking about babies yet.

CHANDLER: Where have you been?

JOEY: Oh, just had a baby.

CHANDLER: Mazeltov!

FRANZBLAU: I don't know, could be an hour, could be three,
but relax, she's doing great. So, uh, tell me, are you
currently involved with anyone?

RACHEL: No, no, not at the moment, no, I'm not. Are you?

FRANZBLAU: No, it's hard enough to get women to go out with me.

RACHEL: Right, yeah, I've heard that about cute doctors.

FRANZBLAU: No, no, really. I suppose it's because I spend so
much time, you know, where I do.

RACHEL: Oh.

FRANZBLAU: I try not to let my work affect my personal life, but
it's hard, when you do what I do. It's like uh...Well,
for instance, what do you do?

RACHEL: I'm a waitress.

FRANZBLAU: Ok, all right, well aren't there times when you come
home at the end of the day, and you're just like, if
I see one more cup of coffee...

RACHEL: Yeah, gotcha.

FRANZBLAU: I'm gonna go check up on your friend.

RACHEL: Ok. That's fine.

LYDIA: So how did you know I was even here?

GUY: Your mom called me. So is this her?

LYDIA: No, this is a loaner.

GUY: I'm sorry you had to do this by yourself.

LYDIA: I wasn't by myself. I had a doctor, a nurse, and a helper
guy. so, did you see who won the game?

GUY: Yeah, the Knicks by 10. They suck.

LYDIA: Yeah, they're not so bad.

ROSS: Come on, come on. Damnit, damnit, damnit, damnit. This is
all your fault. This is supposed to be like the greatest day
of my life, y'know? My son is being born, and I should be
in there, you know, instead of stuck in a closet with you.

SUSAN: The woman I love is having a baby today. I've been waiting
for this just as much as you have.

ROSS: No no no, believe me. No one has been waiting for this as
much as I have, ok? And you know what the funny thing is?
When this day is over, you get to go home with the baby,
ok, where does that leave me?

SUSAN: You get to be the baby's father. Everyone knows who you
are. Who am I? There's Mother's Day, there's Father's
Day, there's no Lesbian Lover Day.

ROSS: Every day is Lesbian Lover Day.

PHOEBE: This is so great.

ROSS: You wanna explain that?

PHOEBE: I mean, well, 'cause when I was growing up, you know my
dad left, and my mother died, and my stepfather went to jail,
so I barely had enough pieces of parents to make one whole one.
And here's this little baby who has like three whole parents
who care about it so much that they're fighting over who
gets to love it the most. And it's not even born yet. It's
just, it's just the luckiest baby in the whole world.
I'm sorry, you were fighting.

CAROL: Where are they?

MONICA: I'm sure they'll be here soon.

RACHEL: Yeah, honey, they wouldn't miss this.

JOEY: Relax. You're only at nine centimeters. And the baby's at
zero station.

CHANDLER: You are really frightening me. Somebody wanna help me,
tryin' to rip out my heart. Uh, that's great. Anybody
seen a nipple?

FRANZBLAU: All right, ten centimeters, here we go.

NURSE: All right, honey, time to start pushing.

CHANDLER: But they're not here yet!

FRANZBLAU: I'm sorry, I can't tell the baby to wait for them.

CAROL: Oh, god.

ROSS: Ok, got the vent open.

PHOEBE: Hi, I'm Ben. I'm hospital worker Ben. It's Ben to the rescue.

ROSS: Ben, you ready? All right, gimme your foot. Ok, on three,
Ben. One, two, three. Ok, That's it, Ben.

SUSAN: What do you see?

PHOEBE: Well, Susan, I see what appears to be a dark vent. Wait.
Yes, it is in fact a dark vent.

ROSS: Pheebs, It's open! It's open!

JANITOR:: Wait! You forgot your legs!

ALL: Push, push!

ROSS: We're here!

CAROL: Where have you been?

ROSS: Long story, honey.

FRANZBLAU: All right, Carol, I need you to keep pushing. I
need--Excuse me, could I have this?

NURSE: All right, all right, there's a few too many people in
this room, and there's about to be one more, so anybody
who's not an ex-husband or a lesbian life partner, out
you go!

ALL: Good luck!

CHANDLER: Let me ask you, do you have to be Carol's lesbian life
partner?

NURSE: Out!

FRANZBLAU: All right, he's crowning. Here he comes.

ROSS: Let me see, I gotta see, I gotta see. Oh, a head. Oh,
it's, it's huge. Carol, how are you doing this?

CAROL: You're not helping!

FRANZBLAU: You're doing great, you're doing fine. Hello!

ROSS: Oh, sorry.

SUSAN: What do you see? What do you see?

ROSS: We got a head, we got shoulders, we got arms, we got, oh,
look at the little fingers, oh, and a chest, and a stomach.
It's a boy, definitely a boy! All right! Ok, legs, knees,
and feet. Oh, oh. He's here. He's a person.

SUSAN: Oh, look at that.

CAROL: What does he look like?

ROSS: Kinda like my uncle Ed, covered in Jello.

CAROL: Really?

PHOEBE: You guys, he's beautiful!

ROSS: Oh, thanks, Pheebs!

SUSAN: No shouting, but we still need a name for this little guy.

ROSS: How 'bout Ben?

SUSAN: I like Ben.

CAROL: Ben. Ben. Ben's good. How come you never mentioned Ben before?

ROSS: We uh, we just cooked it up.

SUSAN: That's what we were off doing.

MONICA: Hi.

ROSS: Hey.

MONICA: Can we come in?

ROSS: I know, I know. Everybody, there's someone I'd like you
to meet. Yeah. This is Ben. Ben, this is everybody.

PHOEBE: Susan, he looks just like you.

SUSAN: Thanks.

RACHEL: Oh, god, I can't believe one of us actually has one of these.

CHANDLER: I know, I still am one of these.

MONICA: Ross, can I?

ROSS: The head, the head. You gotta...

MONICA: Hi, Ben. Hi. I'm your Aunt Monica. Yes I am. I'm your
Aunt Monica. I...I will always have gum.

CREDITS

ROSS: Ben, I want you to know that there may be some times when
I may not be around, like this. But I'll still always come
back, like this. And sometimes I may be away longer, like
this. But I'll still always come back, like this.

CHANDLER: And sometimes, I'll want you to steal third, and
I'll go like this.

MONICA: He is so amazing.

RACHEL: Oh, I know. Look at him.

JOEY: Ben, Ben, hey Ben. Nothing. I don't think that's
his name.

PHOEBE: Oh, look, look, he's closing his eyes. Look, he's
opening his eyes.

JOEY: He doesn't do much, does he?

ROSS: No, this is pretty much it.

RACHEL: You guys wanna get some coffee?

ALL: Yeah.

ROSS: All right, I'll see you guys later.

PHOEBE: Oh, look, he's closing his eyes again.
