An episode where the title sums it up perfectly, but there are also some nice scenes between Matt Le Blanc and David Schwimmer before Joey does eventually tell Rachel.

This episode is centred all around that ongoing story line, and the other plot involving Phoebe/Chandler and Monica isn't that exciting or indeed funny. Chandler and Phoebe have been rather underused thus far in series 8 in my opinion.

Another episode where Matt Le Blanc steals the show.

Joey finally tells Ross that he is in love with Rachel. Ross stays shocked and angry with the revelation, and he cannot talk to Joey for sometime.

Phoebe believes in soul mates and says that she was on a date with Monica's soul mate: an older guy named Don, who works with food and is British. Phoebe introduces Don to Monica and Chandler, and to Chandler's desperation, Monica and Don get along really well. Chandler stays angry with Phoebe for that.

Monica convinces Ross to give a second chance to Joey, because he is really upset with the situation and all he cares about is Ross' friendship; Ross decides to talk with Joey, and even finding the whole thing weird, he gives Joey the support to talk to Rachel about his feelings.

Joey calls Rachel to dinner with him, and tells her what he feels about her.

Ross and Mona are not together anymore: The way Mona discovered that Rachel was living with Ross, seeing her in his apartment, ended their story together.

I have a feeling of love and hate with the relationship of Joey and Rachel that emerged in season 8 and 9, while I love the episodes where Joey falls in love with Rachel, because Joey shows a new facet, and is a silly and cuddly lover, meanwhile I hate when Rachel fell in love with Joey, because they made Rachel dumber to get along with Joey, this episode is a sad but satisfying ending for this little arc that shouldn't have continued

The one thing I liked about this episode is the beautiful friendship of Ross and Joey. Both of them have been behaving in a very sweet way to make sure that the other one knows that they will not do anything to hurt the other one. I also liked when Monica talks to Ross and makes him realize that Joey thinks that he hates him

I also liked Ross's reaction in the beginning. Another "bravo" to David Schwimmer.

That said, I don't like Joey in a serious story line. His character isn't developed past being funny to fit into it. That, and also the fact that there is no chemistry between him and Rachel. Joey and Rachel? What a horrible idea

Ross accepts Joey liking Rachel and Joey goes off to figure out how to confess.

Phoebe introduces a cuisine knowledgable British man with dark hair and is tall. Chandler is jealous.

Joey asks Rachel out for dinner at her door as she is leaving to a meeting. Joey looks so beautiful as he confesses that he is falling in love with her. Rachel does not reciprocate and they hug it out.
