The One Where Emma Cries

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 5 September 2011]

The scene with Ross and Joey at the coffee place is the absolute winner. Whenever I watch it I laugh so much it almost makes me cry. I love Joey's use of quotations, how he convinces Ross to punch him and then gets out of the way so it makes Ross break a thumb, how he then punches him when trying to explain that this was a reflex. Very well written and acted. Gunther's smiling face when Ross is in pain was very amusing as well.

And Chandler was very funny as well. Both how he fells asleep and wakes up holding his coworkers hand. And also how he talks to his boss and this conversation is a total failure because he messes it up so much.

I just didn't like how Monica asks him if he is gay because he likes a musical. I do think that Friends was very good at trying to make homosexuality look like a normal thing that it is. But moments like this are just unnecessary because they promote stereotypes. Why would only gay men like musicals? Why is it not OK for a straight guy to like it?

Funniest episode

This had me rolling on the floor laughing. The line exchanges and timing will have you crack up one after another.

Baby Emma doesn't stop crying in this one

[Lady_Targaryen · 7/10 · 4 March 2009]

Ross is upset that Rachel accepted Joey's proposal, even when Rachel tells him that the only reason she accept that, was the fact she didn't wanted to be alone raising her daughter.

Phoebe,Monica and Chandler make a small celebration in Ross apartment to welcome Emma and Rachel.

Chandler stays tired all day long,since he didn't sleep well because of a big divisional meeting he is going to have. He ends up sleeping in his work and accepting an invitation from his Company to stay working in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He tells Monica about the stupid thing he did, but she doesn't accept them to move there.

Despite of Phoebe's protests,Rachel wakes up Emma when she is sleeping, and now she doesn't stop crying. The only person who has success making her sleep is Monica.

Joey tries to convince Ross that he didn't want to propose to Rachel. Ross is upset and angry with Joey, and Joey asks Ross to punch him. When Ross is convinced by Joey to finally give him a punch, he ducks because of his reflex, and Ross ends up with a broken hand and even more angry with Joey.

Phoebe is hilarious

She is on fire in this one. One line after the other. So funny!!

Really? Misery does love company? Alright!!

Have i gone deaf?

😂😂

Not using it right, Joe

[studioAT · 6/10 · 3 August 2017]

Ever so slowly Matt Le Blanc has become the funniest 'Friend' and this episode showcases that again. The scenes in the coffee house and the hospital with Ross are perfect examples of how funny and sweet he can be. It's no wonder NBC saw this development and thought there was potentially a spin-off series centred around him.

The rest of the episode is OK, nothing really special. Phoebe is again underused, and the plot about not being able to get Emma to sleep feels like a very generic sitcom plot.

Chandler's exile to Tulsa story line begins here, and it's nice to see Matthew Perry being given more to do than just be scared of domineering Monica.

This is gonna be a generous 6

Annoying late series friends episode.

Really just 2 things saving it... Phoebe: "nothing good comes from sleeping with Ross"

Joey and Ross in coffee shop with Joey's air quotes and punches are funny

Other than that....eh. Just blah.

Had Enough

[GeraltTargaryen · 3/10 · 22 August 2020]

Joey is just unbelievable. Honestly, I never thought my first review on IMDb would be for a Friend episode, but it's just getting unbearably annoying. I don't understand why every season has to end in such a frustrating way (except for season 2). I certainly didn't watch a comedy to get myself pissed off. I really hated Rachel when she showed up at Ross's wedding, and back then I didn't think I would hate another character in this show more. I was wrong. This whole Joey's-proposal thing is just outrageous. And in this episode I really wished that Ross had hit Joey, really hard. And now that I come to think about it, I don't understand why anyone would want to be Joey's friends. He's incredibly stupid and has done nothing but causing troubles. The story line about Chandler's promotion and Emma's crying is good, though. I don't think I'll continue to watch this show and keep get disappointed.

Crying Baby

[vivianla · 30 December 2020]

Rachel and the girls try to get Emma to stop crying. Monica finally does it and Rachel has her to stop the baby crying.

Ross and Joey have a talk about what Joey did.

Chandler was so worried about his meeting he couldn't sleep. At the actual meeting he accidentally accepted going to Oklahoma.

When Ross and Rachel are together in the apartment, Emma starts crying again and Rachel calls for Monica. Monica comes in and runs to the back and says, "On it!".
