I had the captioning turned on and during Rachel’s tearful goodbye with Monica the caption kept reading [indecipherable] It’s kind of sad that I laughed harder at the _description_ than I did because of the actual scene. ---

Ha! I checked that out too. 🙂 I’m still pretty sure it was “I can’t believe we’re not going to see each other everday”. Get really, really emotional and teary and give it a try. Sounds just like it. 😉 ---

> [@yellowval](#): > > No, there hasn’t really been much discussion about Emma, which is pretty bad because didn’t Ross throw a fit a few years ago when Carol wanted to move far away with Ben? When they first announced the job, Rachel mentioned that Louis Vitton would fly her back and forth or Ross back and forth to deal with Emma - but that’s about it. Details were kind of blurred over. But hey, seeing Ross hasn’t mentioned Ben in a year and a half, maybe he can forget about this kid, too! ---

I think the death of Estelle is what they’re going to use to set up Joey’s spinoff, don’t you? Huge gaffe on the writers, the actors, hell everyone’s parts not to have _anyone_ questioning the move to Paris with regard to Emma. C’mon! Ross’s immediate comments are “How can I not be able to see her everyday?! OMG, Rachel can’t move!” but not one afterthought about never being able to be a father to his kid? Not a word about single mom Rach leaving behind her entire support system, ya know all those folks who seem to have Emma all the time so Rach can hang out? Yes, it’s a comedy, but that was just dumb. Conspicuous in it’s absence and all that. I’m planning a last-night party with my girlfriends, we’re still working out the details on how to conduct a drinking game during the retrospective…something about ‘guess which season that clip’s from by which character is alarmingly over/under-weight’ I think. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/please-spoil-friends-last-night-for-me-29-04/242849.md?page=1)
