　　Rachel: A scooter!

　　Ross: Stick to the list. Always stick to the list.

　　Rachel: No! No, no, I love it. Thank you.

　　Chandler: Okay, open ours next. Open ours next!

　　Joey: Now that you're a couple, we don't get two presents from you guys?

　　Chandler: For my last birthday you gave me a hug! Okay, read the card! Read the card!

　　Rachel: Okay. Happy birthday, Grandma! It's better to be over the hill than buried² under it. Your love, Monica and Chandler. That's funny, yeah!

　　Chandler: No–no–no–no! That was the joke!

　　Rachel: No, I know! I get it! It's funny!

　　Chandler: No, because you're not a grandmother!

　　Rachel: No, I know, because to be a grandmother you have to be married³ and have children and I don't have any of those things. That's why it's so funny.

　　Monica: All you had to do was buy the card!
