- Phoebe and Joey purposely set Ross and Rachel up on bad dates in the hopes they'll get back together. Monica and Chandler babysit Emma.
- As they think Ross and Rachel should get back together with Emma, Joey and Phoebe, when asked to fix them up with blind dates, plan to make those so horrible they'll end up back with each other. Phoebe does a great job: Steve is so unattractive he even makes himself cry; Joey found his own nightmare woman, a history teacher, not realizing she risks looking ideal to Ross; but she stands Ross up, making him the object of bets by the waiters on how long he will wait before leaving. Chandler and Monica agree to babysit Emma, but with him being bored without a job and she ovulating, their sex drive gets the better of them, so Joey finds the baby 'exposed to perversion' next to the bedroom...—KGF Vissers
- Ross and Rachael ask Phoebe and Joey to set them up on blind dates. Phoebe and Joey plot to set them up with people they will hate so they realize that they belong with each other. Phoebe sets Rachael up with a former massage client who repeatedly tells Rachael that she's too good for him, and eventually makes himself cry. Joey sets Ross up with a woman who's perfect for him, but when Phoebe points out that she's Ross's perfect match, he tells the girl that the date is cancelled, so Ross gets stood up at the restaurant where the waiters start betting how long he'll stay. Monica and Chandler are babysitting Emma, but since it is the last day Monica is ovulating, they have sex. Joey comes in and realizes that Monica and Chandler are having sex, so he takes the baby, leaving Monica and Chandler to search for her.—Brianna

- Joey is having trouble sleeping as Emma cries all night. Ross tells Joey that he is ready to move on with his life and start seeing other people.
Joey and Phoebe want Ross and Rachel to get back together (they think they are perfect for each other and felt that when they move in, that's where things were headed), so when they ask them to set them up on blind dates, they take advantage of this and decide to set them up on terrible dates so they'll see how perfect they are for each other. Phoebe sets Rachel up with a drug addict, Steve (Phill Lewis) (who previously appeared in "The One With The Stoned Guy" as a restaurant owner offering Monica a spot) and Joey sets Ross up with a history teacher, and she loves foreign movies and puzzles. She even reads for pleasure Realizing it's his perfect match for Ross with the history teacher, he tells the woman that the date is off, leaving Ross to be stood up.
Rachel's date with Steve is a disaster when he starts insulting himself (He says Rachel is way out of his league, he is not good looking or funny. He lost his restaurant to drugs & sells printed t-shirts for a living now. He lives in a studio apartment with 2 other guys and is sure that he is infertile) and starts to cry. Meanwhile, the waiters at the restaurant where Ross got stood up at have a pool going to see how long it takes for Ross to give up and leave. Ross finds out when a waiter offers him free crab cakes in a bid to get him to stay longer. Ross and Rachel meet up at the coffeehouse and realize Joey and Phoebe's plan and chase after them.
Chandler and Monica babysit Emma (while Rachel goes out on her date) and Monica is ovulating but they can't have sex because of Emma. Chandler has been out of a job for a while now and Monica asks him to turn off Oprah and send out some resumes. Emma is in a phase where she grabs hair, poops around the clock and screams bloody murder if you leave her alone in a room. Monica realizes she is ovulating and only has a few hrs left in the current cycle. Monica wants to have sex in front of Emma, but Chandler argues that this is something people go to jail for. When Emma finally falls asleep they go in the bedroom to have sex. Joey stops by and, realizing this, takes Emma away. Joey then tells them he won't tell Rachel if they name their first born child Joey, to continue 'his family name'. Phoebe is offended as she believes Monica and Chandler owe her 3 Phoebe's.
The ending shows Ross and Joey at the restaurant trying to get free crab cakes pretending to be stood up. However, the waiter informs them that they're instead betting on to see how long it will take Steve to cry which he quickly does
