The One With Frank Jr.

Thursday, 17 October 1996

Phoebe spends a weekend with her half-brother Frank Jr. and struggles to find anything in common, while Joey's homemade entertainment unit drags him into retiling Monica's bathroom and Ross finalises a list of celebrities he may sleep with.

What happens

• Joey starts building an entertainment unit with a mail cubby in it and tells Chandler the job will take a single day.
• Phoebe waits outside the coffee house for Frank and tells Rachel that he is her last remaining chance at having a family.
• Chandler explains that he and Janice have each named five celebrities they are allowed to sleep with without the other getting angry.
• Phoebe introduces Frank to everyone, and his plans for their weekend turn out to be buying ninja stars and photographing a prostitute for a friend.
• Joey talks Monica into hating her bathroom floor, gouges a tile loose, and Monica orders him to retile the entire room.
• Phoebe hunts for a trait she shares with Frank, but he can roll his tongue and she cannot, and their birthdays are months apart.
• Phoebe is called in to work and invites Frank along to the massage parlour for a free massage from one of the other women.
• Frank gropes the masseuse because he assumed his sister worked at a brothel, and Phoebe angrily corrects him about what her job is.
• Frank apologises and tells Phoebe he can talk to her because she is his sister, and Phoebe decides that conversation is her favourite part of the weekend.
• Ross approaches Isabella Rossellini with his laminated list, and she turns him down once she sees that Chandler talked him into cutting her from it.
