- Monica cooks a gourmet meal for a restaurateur who is looking for a new chef, however he arrives at the apartment stoned. Meanwhile, Ross tries to master 'dirty talk'.
- Chandler has news: his boss offered him a promotion to data processing coordinator. So Chandler resigned! He has spent five years in what was meant to be a 'temporary' job and feels he is destined for something more meaningful than 'worrying about the 'weenus.' But he doesn't know what! After a full day of aptitude tests, Chandler is declared perfectly fit for data processing. He refuses to believe it, but his boss keeps making better and better offers. A massage client of Phoebe's is opening a restaurant, just the kind Monica would like to run, so she sets up a demonstration to impress the boss, Steve. Alas he arrives under the influence of weed, which makes him a voracious, infantile omnivore. Meanwhile Ross has a promising date with the museum's Insects curator and introduces her to his monkey Marcel.—KGF Vissers
- Monica cooks a gourmet meal for Steve (Jon Lovitz), a restaurateur looking for a new head chef. Steve is a massage client for Phoebe and she makes the introduction between Monica and him. The job is perfect as Steve wants something eclectic and needs someone who can create the entire menu. As an audition, Monica is cooking dinner for him the coming week. She wants Phoebe to be there. Monica hires a professional waitress Wendy (for $10/hr), which offends Rachel (Monica says that she needed a professional waitress). Wendy bails on Monica at the last minute. Monica begs Rachel and even says that she gave her shelter when she had nowhere else to go.. Eventually she offers Rachel $20/hr. He arrives stoned and wants to eat everything in sight, including taco shells and gummy bears. Phoebe tells Rachel who tries to handle the situation by offering Steve some wine. Eventually Monica realizes that Steve is super stoned. She tries to yank the gummy bears from Steve and they end up falling in the punch bowl.. Dinner is a total disaster and the gang tells her that she doesn't want to work for a guy like that.
After working as a data processor for five years, Chandler gets promoted to supervisor. Chandler quits, claiming he only intended for his job to be temporary (and Chandler already has been there for over 5 yrs). Chandler goes to meet a career counselor. After 8 hrs of aptitude, personality and intelligence tests he learns that he is fit for a career in data processing, for a large multinational corporation. he is disappointed as he always pictured himself doing something cool. When his boss calls and offers more money (& more bonus.. Chandler resists, but the boss keeps throwing more and more numbers), Chandler caves and goes back to work. Chandler gets the corner office and he shows it off to Phoebe. He has a view and an assistant.. But Chandler has more responsibility now and starts spending more time & late nights at work and yelling at his juniors. He doesn't like it.
Ross has a date with a beautiful colleague named Celia (Melora Hardin) (curator of insects at the museum) and gives new meaning to the term "spanking the monkey" when she meets Marcel. The date goes bad when Marcel hands on Celia's hair and pulls it. Eventually Ross takes Celia to bed and she wants him to talk dirty and he says "Vulva".. Ross turns to Joey for advice as Celia wants him to talk dirty as foreplay. Joey gets Ross to practice on him.. When Ross talks smack, Chandler overhears and amuses himself at their expense. Ross does well at the next date and talks very dirty (with theme, plot, motif and story-lines. at one point there were villagers), but eventually they get tired and cuddle.
Phoebe takes out her anger at Steve at his next massage appointment by treating him to a bad massage (she elbows him on his back and pinches his skin so that it hurts).
