Despite being extremely full, Joey still has room for pie. The episode culminates in Joey finishing off the turkey and getting the meat sweats. Throughout the episode, Joey battles the enormous turkey, eventually changing into Phoebe's maternity clothing (which she was giving to Rachel earlier in the episode) to ease the strain on his stomach. Joey admonishes Monica and demands the tradition, and so Monica obliges with a monstrous bird. Thus Monica tells a crestfallen Joey that she will not be cooking a turkey because it is not worth it for just 3 people. He tries to give Ross a high-five to celebrate, but when Ross refuses, Phoebe, who has been crushing on Will the entire evening, takes the opportunity to hug him.īecause Phoebe is a vegetarian, Chandler hates Thanksgiving cuisine, Rachel has an aversion to poultry and Will is on a diet, they will not be eating turkey. Will is completely dumbfounded by this revelation but takes pleasure in the fact that Ross got Rachel pregnant but is not going to marry her. They agree to be civil and reveal to Will that they are now having a baby together. Rachel demands that Ross recant the rumor by calling everyone from school, but Monica puts them both in their place by reminding them that Rachel's rumor put Ross on the social radar, that Ross and Will's rumor had no effect whatsoever on Rachel's queen bee status and that they have too much important history to fixate on the past. Rachel feels betrayed by Ross until Monica reminds her that she started a rumor of her own that Ross made out with the school's 50-year-old librarian, though a horrified Ross confirms it as true. Rachel is immediately attracted to Will, unable to recognize him, but Will is openly hostile and this culminates in his proud announcement that he and Ross founded the "I Hate Rachel" club in high school and initiated a rumor that she was a hermaphrodite, which was spread throughout their entire high school. However, Will reacts very badly when learning that Rachel, who he hated in high school because of her bullying him, will be joining them for dinner. Monica invites an old school friend of hers and Ross' for Thanksgiving, Will Colbert ( Brad Pitt). It was nominated for multiple Primetime Emmy Awards, but was criticized as "insulting" by a national intersex education group.
