Season 5 has been killing it thus far which is why we are going to try and overlook the "meh-ness" of this episode. Not a super memorable episode but nobody can ignore the general wondering-ments. Will we ever have an understanding of the friends' orange juice consumption habits? Reggae music for a Tuscan dinner party? Explain, please. Let the record show that it is April in the Friends universe. We feel like it's going to matter in the episodes to come.

Rachel is missing out on all the business chat with her boss and colleagues because she doesn't take smoke breaks. So, for the sake of her career, she takes up smoking. The friends decide to throw Rachel a surprise birthday party and Monica steels the reins from Phoebe in all the planning. Phoebe is left in charge of cups and ice. Monica will rue the day! Joey and Ben are both auditioning for father and son roles in a soup commercial. But, as the field narrows down, they are pitted against each other. If only Joey could distinguish between "soup" and "noodle soup".
