In this episode Ross and his girlfriend decided to get a cat, Rachel is still in love with him and has a really hard time. She confesses her feelings for him over a phone call while being drunk. Ross is very confused and doesnt know what to do, but by the end of the episode they finally kiss. It was an interesting idea to show man vs woman perspective on the kiss. In the meantime Monica helps Chandler to lose weight and Phoebe is dating a new guy and everything is fine except the didnt slept together yet. Later we found out he is better player then Joey. Fun fact - writers really loved the connection between Monica and Chandler in this episode and maybe they got the inspiration for their future relationship from here.

The One Where Ross Finds Out

In this episode it is Ross's turn to find out that Rachel has feelings for him. And it is done in a brilliant way. The date with Michael where she gets drunk is very funny, so is the message she leaves Ross and so is the scene when Ross listens to the message. And after all the fun scenes we also get a dramatic scene of a fight in Central Perk and then a beautiful, romantic moment when Ross comes back and it ends with a passionate kiss.
Besides this I wasn't too impressed with the rest of the episode. Chandler and Monica exercising isn't that great. And this is the first time when Monica's annoying and shrill personality shines through. a little preview to the future where this is all she will ever be.
And Phoebe's story is slightly sexist. What dopes it mean he "made her believe this is a good idea"? For women having casual sex can be a good idea as well, not all are desperate for relationship

Weird Episode To Watch
slightlymad228 December 2014
A weird episode for me this one.
Plot In A Paragraph: Upset that Ross is buying a cat with his girlfriend Julie, Rachel gets drunk on a date and leaves him a drunken voicemail saying she is over him. Meanwhile when Chandler is upset when he finds out he has put on a little weight, an unemployed and bored Monica appoints herself his personal trainer (Even if he wants her to or not) and Phoebe worries the guy she is dating does not think she is sexy enough as he doesn't seem to want to sleep with her.
My mixed feelings on this episode stem from the Phoebe storyline being very sexist. The Chandler and Monica storyline was fun, but again David Schwimmers acting was awkward to watch once he heard the voicemail.
But we get to see Ross and Rachel have their first real kiss.
A generous 7/10 for the Perry and Cox storyline and the first kiss.

The One Where Monica Is Chandler's Personal Trainer...
taylorkingston28 April 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I really like this episode. It's funny and I feel terrible for saying this, but I really like it when Rachel's sad. I hate the Ross and Rachel relationship and when she continuously complains about it, it gets a bit annoying.
In this episode, Rachel says she's over Ross, so she's set up on a date by Monica. At the dinner, Rachel gets drunk and calls Ross. She gets his answering machine and leaves a terrible, drunken message about how she's doing fine, but we all know it's a cry for help. Meanwhile, Chandler wants to get in shape and Monica volunteers to be his personal trainer. At one point, he doesn't want to work out, so Monica bribes him with her boobs. She says if he does a certain amount of sit-ups, she'll flash him.
Overall, I give this episode a 7 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Great.
