The One With Rumour
Monica (Courteney Cox Arquette) bumps into an old high school friend and invites him to thanksgiving dinner with the gang - unaware that he's not exactly a fan of Rachel (Jennifer Aniston). Meanwhile, Chandler (Matthew Perry) and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) pretend to be enthralled with a televised football game so that they can avoid helping Monica in the kitchen while Joey (Matt LeBlanc) vows to polish off the turkey single-handedly.

Meanwhile, when Phoebe learns that Ross's (David Schwimmer) and rock star Sting's sons attend the same school, she angles to meet the celebrity and get concert tickets - but is caught by his suspicious wife, Trudie Styler (as herself). In addition, Rachel tries to mediate between an angry Joey and his pregnant kid sister.
The One With Ross's Step Forward; Ross becomes nervous when his new girlfriend, Mona (recurring guest star Bonnie Somerville), wants to mail cute Christmas cards with both of their pictures on it. When Rachel starts feeling the hormonal effects of her pregnancy, she desperately searches for possible romantic partners- including the ever accommodating Joey.

However, things take an unexpected turn when their date is a success and they begin to regard each other in a way no one could have predicted. Meanwhile, Chandler racks up a record number of points on Monica's new Mrs. Pac-Man game machine and Ross is finally allowed to teach an honours class.
