Rachel has an awkward encounter when she interviews for a new job. Monica becomes jealous of Phoebe and Gary. Joey searches for a 'hot girl' in Ross's building.

Rachel goes through an awkward situation while interviewing for a job at Ralph Lauren. Monica and Chandler try to compete with Phoebe and Gary in order to find who the better couple is. While Joey watches Ross through his new apartment window, he searches for an attractive woman who waved at him.

Phoebe claims that she and Gary are the hotter couple than Monica and Chandler. Monica wants to prove her wrong by having more sex with Chandler. Rachel has an interview for a job at Ralph Lauren. Joey flirts across the street with a girl in Ross' building but he can't find her apartment. Rachel screws up her interview by mistakenly kissing the guy doing the interview. Joey can't find the girl but Ross meets her and asks her out. Rachel gets the job despite her inappropriate behavior. Monica is so obsessed about being the hotter couple because she is afraid they're past the phase where they're all over each other. Chandler thinks the phase they're in now is much more exciting because they actually have a real relationship and it's working out perfectly.

Rachel is invited to an interview for the job of coordinator of the women's collection, working right underneath the director of the department. Rachel interviews with Ralph Lauren and accidentally kisses her interviewer and prospective boss - Mr. Zelner. The interview part went very well (she even made him laugh), but towards the end Zelner shook Rachel's hand and was leaning to open the door behind her, but Rachel totally misread him and kissed him on the cheeks. Rachel is further alarmed when she gets a 2nd interview and thinks that she kissing Zelner might have given him wrong ideas about her (lets bring back the girl who kisses everybody).

Before the 2nd interview Rachel gets some ink on her lips. So, Zelner points to his lips before the start of the interview, indicating to Rachel that she should wipe her lips. But Rachel thinks that Zelner wants to kiss her. She gets offended (she says she is not some hussy who will sleep around to get ahead) and walks out of there. She returns home and Joey, Monica and ROss make the same gesture to Rachel as Zelner did and she figures out that she has ink on her lips, and that Zelner was not coming on to her. Rachel calls back and Zelner agrees to see her again. Zelner tells her that the meeting is being videotaped. Rachel apologizes to Zelner for kissing him and yelling at him. Rachel says she has courage (for coming back after making a fool of herself), she has integrity (said no when she thought Zelner wanted sex), and was not afraid to stand up for herself & not litigious. Zelner is convinced and hires Rachel. She moves to shake Zelner's hand, but ends up putting her hand on his crotch.. She runs out of there before he changes his mind.

Phoebe misses Gary every time he goes on police duty. She tells Monica that she cant keep her hands off Gary and they are in this early part of their relationship. Monica is jealous and wants to prove that she and Chandler are a hotter couple than Phoebe and her new boyfriend, Gary. Phoebe brags how she and Gary spent the whole day in Gary's apartment. Monica says she and Chandler plan on doing it all night. Chandler is excited since he gets to have sex over and over again. Phoebe and Gary do it in the park. So Monica wants to do it in the bathroom of the restaurant they have dinner in. But Chandler says this is getting ridiculous, and that he was very anxious and severely dehydrated during the early part of their relationship. He is much more secure and stable in the current part.

Ross does bits for the benefit of Monica and his friends, who can see him from Monica's apartment. The bits include the "Shark Attack", the "Surfing", "the watching TV", "the dog walking". eventually Joey loans them cut outs of Pamela and Yasmine and sticks it up Monica's window. Ross thinks that Rachel and Monica, and continues to perform his bits for them. Joey flirts with a girl who lives across the street in Ross' building. When he goes to meet her, he cannot find her apartment and continually ends up at Ross' door, having miscalculated the floor number. Joey ends up yelling "hot Girl" "Hot girl" inside Ross's building hoping to attract her attention.

Eventually Monica helps him find the apartment only to find Ross in the girls apartment (with whom the girl Jen (Samantha Smith) met Ross earlier (She knew that Ross is the guy who refused to chip in for the handyman and agreed with his position on the matter) and goes out with him).
