　　Monica: You bought a boat?

　　Jill: Yeah but it wasn't for me; it was for a friend.

　　Chandler: Boy, did we make friends with the wrong sister!

　　Jill: I knew it was stupid¹ and I shouldn't have done it... but she bought me all these CDs and said I had a really cute haircut².

　　Chandler: And your daddy didn't understand?

　　Jill: I know, and usually I just cry and say I'm sorry and he forgives³ me.

　　Ross: Oh, yes, good criers, the Greene girls. I mean, the Greene sisters. Man, no matter how you say it... it still sounds like you're talking about green people. I'm at rock bottom⁴.

　　Rachel: Jill, honey, I think this is the best thing that could've ever happened to you. I mean you've needed to get out on your own anyway! And you know when I did it, I… I… I at first I was scared, but then look at me now! I'm the only daughter dad is proud of!
