The One Where Monica Caters A Party For Her Mother...
28 January 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I really love this episode. I really do. I think it's just so funny and it has touching moments throughout.

In this episode, Monica is catering a party for her Mother, with the help of Phoebe. Monica tries desperately to get her Mother to stop being so critical. I find it really unfair, the way Monica's Mother treats her. I just always find myself saying, "Shut up and worry about your own life!". Anyway, let's continue. Everything is going relatively okay, but when Monica loses one of her fake nails in the quiche, then she gets worried. She has to admit to her Mother and then the frozen lasagnas come out. That's right. Her Mother thought she'd screw up somehow. Monica refuses to serve something that she didn't make, so she cooks up something delicious and proves her Mother wrong. Meanwhile, Chandler sleeps with Rachel's boss and Rachel demands that he breaks it off. When he doesn't and is with the boss in her office, he gets handcuffed to a chair and left there. He tries to get Rachel to let him out and eventually has to offer her something. But it doesn't work. Since Rachel realizes that if she lets him out, Joanne, the boss, would know that she was in her office and potentially get fired. So Rachel tells the girls that Chandler is, well, let's say, well endowed, in return for staying put. But the rumour gets blown when Joey says he isn't.

Overall, I give this episode a 10 out of 10.
