Monica: You should feel great about yourself! You're doing this amazing independence thing! 

Rachel:Monica, what is so amazing? I gave up, like, everything. And for what? 

Phoebe: You are just like Jack¹. 

Rachel: ...Jack from downstairs? 

Phoebe: No, Jack and the Beanstalk. 

Monica: Ah, the other Jack. 

Phoebe: Yeah, right! See, he gave up something, but then he got those magic beans. And then he woke up, and there was this, this big plant outside his window, full of possibilities and stuff².. And he lived in a village, and you live in the Village.. 

Rachel: Okay, but Pheebs, Pheebs, Jack gave up a cow, I gave up an orthodontist. Okay, I-I-I know, I know I didn't love him- 

Phoebe: Oh, see, Jack did love the cow. 

Rachel: But see, it was a plan. Y'know, it was clear. Everything was figured out, and now everything's just kinda like... 

Phoebe: Floopy? 

Rachel: Yeah. 

Monica: So what, you're not the only one. I mean, half the time we don't know where we are going. You've just gotta figure at some point it's all gonna come together, and it's just gonna be... un-floopy. 

Phoebe: Oh, like that's a word. 

Rachel: Okay, but Monica, what if- what if it doesn't come together? 

Monica: ...Pheebs? 

Phoebe: Oh, well... 'cause.... you just... I don't like this question. 

Rachel: Okay, see, see, you guys, what if we don't get magic beans? I mean, what if all we've got are beans?
