The One With Ross's Music, It's Terrible...

[taylorkingston · 10/10 · 28 April 2015]

I love this episode. It's so funny. I love the Joey/Chandler relationship, and it becomes really real in this episode. The audience goes through something we've never been through before, kind of betrayal, and anger towards the one who betrayed you.

In this episode, Joey goes on a date with someone who isn't his girlfriend. Chandler accidentally sees Joey's girlfriend, Kathy, naked and he's being tortured, because he thinks she likes him too. Eventually, Chandler and Kathy kiss. Feeling guilty, Chandler buys lots of furniture and appliances for Joey, but it turns out that Joey hadn't lost interest in Kathy. Kathy breaks up with Joey and Chandler finds the courage to tell him about their kiss. Joey feels betrayed, obviously. Meanwhile, Phoebe finds out that Ross played keyboard in college and insists on hearing some of his songs. They're terrible and everyone except Phoebe and Ross can tell. Phoebe convinces him to play at Central Perk, but it just makes everyone leave the café.

Overall, I give this episode a 10 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Freaking Ridonkulous.

Great episode.

I don't know why but I feel bad for Chandler, he didn't do anything wrong. Chandler kissed Kathy after Joey asked another girl out. Joey was unfaithful with both girls, it's karma. Anyway, Chandler broke the bro code. 💔

Really good episode

[okraievskyi · 10/10 · 29 December 2021]

While this episode is a complete masterpiece in my opinion, the best storyline was the Kathy one. This is the best storyline with them that we've had yet, and I just found it so funny, relatable, and at the same time, you really worry about the characters. Man, I hope this isn't the last appereance of Kathy, because this storyline is SO good.

However, the storyline with Ross isn't far behind, as it was almost equally good. It was so funny I even laughed out loud most of the time, and it was this kind of storyline that you don't need to think about much and just have fun. Definitely one of the best Friends episodes.

The One With Ross's Music

[devashishparnami · 10/10 · 5 November 2018]

Chandler sees Kathy naked and feels like he is being tortured because he thinks she likes him too. Joey has a date with a different girl and Chandler sees his chance to talk Joey out of seeing Kathy anymore. Phoebe hears that Ross used to play the keyboard and has his own sound. Ross' "sound" is just a serious of feature sounds like ringing bells, glass crashing, helicopter sounds... Everybody hates it except Phoebe who makes Ross play his "music" in public. Kathy cuts Chandler's hair and they kiss. Chandler says they have to forget their feelings for each other for Joey's sake but Kathy can't do it. Ross plays at Central Perk and the place empties. Chandler buys new furniture for him and Joey and Chandler learns that Joey hasn't lost interest in Kathy but wants to make their relationship even stronger. Phoebe doesn't want to play music anymore because she thinks she could never measure up to Ross so Ross gives up his music for Phoebe. Chandler tells Joey that he kissed Kathy.

So far past the line...

[studioAT · 7/10 · 11 June 2017]

This is one of my favourite 'Friends' episodes, probably because it features the Joey/Chandler relationship heavily.

There's so much going on between them in this episode, with Kathy being the wedge in between. Both Matthew Perry and Matt Le Blanc play the scenes with such skill that it's a joy to watch.

The other story lines pale in comparison really, though David Schwimmer's Ross playing the keyboard (and I use the word 'play' loosely) is quite fun.

A really strong episode from a strong fourth series of the beloved sitcom.

The One Where Chandler Crosses the Line

[ComedyFan2010 · 7/10 · 21 July 2011]

In this episode the love triangle between Chandler,Joey and Kathy gets ugly. I found it slightly disappointing. The whole scene where Chandler kisses Kathy was not very good. I didn't feel any chemistry between them nor was it very exciting or believable to me. The scene where Chandler confesses it to Joey was better. Probably because Joey and Chandler are such a great "couple" so that one really feels it for them. And one really wants to know it will go on

And for the fun part we get Ross's sound. It was pretty hilarious in the beginning, but then this story kind of "lost it" just like Ross did.

Kissing Joey's GF

[vivianla · 3 December 2020]

Chandler tells everyone he just saw Joey's gf naked when he went to the bathroom. Her skin is all smooth.

Joey gets a girl's number and Chandler gets excited thinking things are done with his gf. But no, its just that Joey will have dinner with this girl first and then his gf. Chandler says he must be unfulfilled having sex with a line of beautiful women.

Joey calls saying he will be late because of his car transmission.

Chandler has Baywatch on and tells the duck that they have firm and juicy breasts too. Joey's gf comes in and eventually they kiss.

Chandler has bought a ton of new stuff for their apartment out of guilt. Joey is excited about the TV - it appears out of no where - that is the dream!

The gang tells Chandler if he had told Joey beforehand Joey would have been fine with it.

Joey says that he broke up with his gf and Chandler tells him he likes Kathy. Joey accepts and says that its because he told him first. Chandler admits last night they did stuff and Joey asked if they slept together. Chandler said no just only kissed and Joey says that is worse.

Joey storms out angry at Chandler.
