MONICA & CHANDLER'S LIVING ROOM:

Blackness... The whole apartment is empty, and then suddenly there's a 
loud THUMP THUMP THUMP! Sound that comes from the front door. Then 
across the living room the bedroom door swings open and Chandler stumbles 
out, hair going this way and that, his eye's barely open. The knocking 
at the front door continues.

Chandler: (Tired) I'm coming! I'm coming!

He slowly walks to the door, then he stupidly trips over his own feet, 
and stumbles a few feet before he gains control again.

Chandler: Where'd they come from?

Chandler walks to the door, the knocking continues but by now it's 
starting to get annoying.

Chandler: Hold on!

He fumbles with the lock, then he swings the door open, only to see 
Rachel standing there. 

Chandler: (Trying to hold his cool) can I help you?

Rachel: Listen jerk! I have to stay here tonight!

Chandler: Wha--? What do ya mean?

Rachel: Come-!

Rachel turns and walks out into the hall and straight to Joey's 
apartment. 

JOEY'S APARTMENT:

We see Chandler and Rachel standing in the kitchen/living room at first 
we have no idea what's going on or what Rachel was talking about.

Chandler: What's goin' on-

Rachel: Shhhhh--!

Then we hear it... it sounds like a cat coughing up a hairball. We have 
know idea what's making it.

CUT TO: We see Joey lying in bed fast asleep a thin line of drool 
creeping down his chin, and he's snoring very, very loud.

CUT TO: CHANDLER & RACHEL

Rachel: Ya see? You see what I have to live with?

Chandler: Deal with it!

Rachel: What? Why?

Chandler: You have any idea what time it is?

But then Chandler turns and walks out.

Rachel: (To herself) Jackass! 

The snoring gets louder.

Rachel: ah! I-I give up

Rachel stomps away to her bedroom. And slams the door shut, but yet 
this doesn't wake up Joey. He just keeps snoring. A few moments later her 
door swings open and she wakes over to the counter, to where a bowl of 
apples sit, she then picks up the largest roundest one, and she smiles 
at it, then she walks over to Joey's bedroom door, she opens it. Then 
with all her might she tosses it in. we hear a loud whack as it hits 
Joey.

Joey: Aw! What the hell was that?

Happy Rachel walks back to her room and closes the door. A few moments 
pass and we hear Joey silently mumble some stuff in Italian, before it 
goes silent again, and then we hear the sound of Joey snoring again! 
Rachel walks out of her room, anger on her face. She walks over to Joey's 
room and she walks in, and the sound of Joey screaming.

Rachel: (Yelling) Stop it!

(OPENING CREDITS)

CENTRAL PERK:

We reopen with Ross and Phoebe sitting around talking and both sipping 
a fresh cup of coffee. We join in, missing the first part of there 
conversation.

Ross: Come on Phebes come on tell me about your dream!

Phoebe: Uh... No.

Ross: Come on, please!

Behind them Monica and Rachel walk in, both holding shopping bags, 
Rachel for some strange reason seems to be holding more.

Rachel: What are ya both talking about?

Ross: well I'm trying to get Phebes here to tell me her dream.

Rachel: Oh... oh tell me please tell me!

She hurries over to Phoebe and then Phoebe whispers something into her 
ear. Rachel's jaw drops and then she starts laughing. She then walks 
over to Ross and pats him on the shoulder.

Rachel: Nice knowing ya!

Monica: Oh, oh please tell me!

Monica walks over to Rachel and whispers something into her ear. Monica 
pulls her head pack and starts laughing.

Monica: (To Ross) oh... you're so screwed!

Ross: Wha--? What are you talking about?

Phoebe: You really want to know.

Ross: yeah.

Phoebe: Are you sure you really want to know--

Ross: (loud) YES (quietly) I want to know!

Phoebe: Yeah, you're a gonna die.

Ross: Wha--? What!!!

Phoebe: yeah... you're gonna die.

Ross: H-how?

Phoebe: wouldn't you like to know.

Ross: As a matter a fact I would.

Phoebe: Too bad.

Ross turns away. And bites his lower lip.

MONICA & CHANDLER'S APARTMENT:

We open on Joey and Chandler sitting around doing nothing. 

Joey: Want to hear something weird?

Chandler: Sure-- What! Does this have anything do to rediscovering 
yourself?

Joey: No. (To himself) not this time.

Chandler: Then go ahead.

Joey: Last night, during dreaming of Rachel out of nowhere this apple 
just hit me... again!

Chandler: Still? Damn those apples.

Joey: Yeah... say what do ya think 'bout me and her?

Chandler: Look man, we've gone through this million of times, I just 
can't see it happing, and it could just tear us all apart. I mean look 
what it almost did with you and Ross.

Joey: Yeah... but I just with-

Chandler: Joe, please move on.

Joey: No, it's that I wish those damn apples will stop hitting me in my 
sleep.

Chandler: See, you and Phoebe I can see.

Joey: Yeah, yeah I just can't see that.

ROSS'S APARTMENT:

We see Ross sitting at his couch, a cold beer in hand and in the 
background he's listening to easy or soft rock music. And then we hear the 
following as a voice over:

Ross: (Voiceover) I wonder what Phoebe meant? there's no way I'm gonna 
die... (Panicky) But what about Ben? Want if it's all true? How would 
he handle it? What about the baby-- oh crap!

There's a knock at the front door, Ross gets up and walks on over, 
unlocks it, and opens it, only to see Phoebe standing there.

Phoebe: Ross, we need to talk.

She walks in and sits down on the couch. Ross is still standing with 
the door still open.

Ross: Sure Phebes please come on in.

Phoebe: Hello? I'm right here.

Ross shuts the door.

Ross: I've been and still am aware of that.

Phoebe: Oh... ok.

Ross walks over and sits down next to Phoebe.

Ross: So, keeper of bad news, what have you got for me now?

Phoebe: I came over here to apologize.

Ross: Apologize, why?

Phoebe: Well, you see I sat down to watch alittle TV and there was a 
thing on the African Dung beetle and--

Ross: Damn, I missed it!

Phoebe: What's there to miss? I mean he rolls and lives in poop!

Ross just looks at her blankly.

Phoebe: Well, it was really, really boring! Ya know so I needed up 
falling asleep and I had the same dream again.

Ross: Ya so? It was that good of a dream, huh?

Phoebe: yeah, but this time it was Chandler.

Ross: What, let me see if I get what your saying, Chandler's gonna die? 

Phoebe: yeah.

Ross: (Very happy) Wow that's so great (plainly) well its not like I 
was worried about it at that matter.

Phoebe: Ya ok, well I gotta get goin' I gotta go tell Chandler the 
half-good half-bad news.

Phoebe turns and walks out.

Ross: (Yells) Phebes!

She pokes her head back through the door.

Phoebe: Yeah?

Ross: By any chance... nevermind 

Phoebe: No, what?

Ross: Well, by any chance... is that show still on?

Phoebe: Channel twenty-six

Then she closes the door, and then in one swift motion Ross dives for 
the remote.

MONICA & CHANDLER'S BEDROOM:

We see Chandler and Monica lying in bed, both looking wide-awake. Then 
Chandler looks over at a small alarm clock next to his side of the bed 
it reads: 1:59 AM then it clicks over to: 2:00 AM and then suddenly 
there's the sound of Rachel pounding on the front door.

Monica: Right on time.

Chandler: Yep... ya want me to get this one?

Monica: No, I got it.

Monica gets up and walks to the living room.

Monica: What do you want?

Rachel: Can I sleep over here tonight? I can't stand Joey.

Monica: No.

Rachel: What? Why? You have the spare room.

Monica: Night.

She closes the door.

Monica walks back to their bedroom.

Chandler: Don't make me do this. You're trying to get this from a guy 
who cried after a paper cut.

Monica: It was pretty funny.

Chandler: Well, you didn't have to tell Ross, Rach, Phebes, and Joey.

Monica: Well, I said I was sorry.

Chandler: Yeah, right after you told all the people you work with. I 
was a joke during the Christmas party last year, remember?

Monica: Well that was in the past.

Chandler: Not to mention cutting off part of my big toe when I was in 
collage.

Chandler: Good, then what did Phoebe tell you?

Monica: Well... you're gonna get a small shock.

Chandler: That's not to bad.

Monica: Let me finish... good, and then it's gonna turn black and fall 
off.

Chandler: Is that all?

Monica: Good night.

Chandler: (To himself) ya can tell that that's from Phebes mind.

Monica rolls over and flicks the lights off, but it's dim enough to 
still see around the room. Chandlers lying there his eyes are wide open.

CHANDLERS OFFICE:

Chandler's walks into his small office, and over to his small paper 
cluttered desk, he sits down, then he reaches over to his computer to 
click it on, then we hear the sound of a low static shock. Chandler pulls 
his hand back.

Chandler: Aw, son-of-a-bitch!

Then across the room and man in a suit walks in.

Man: Chandler, can we talk?

Chandler jumps up, and then hurries over to the open door.

Chandler: In a second, I just gotta check something out.

He runs out.
