What happens

03:21–05:15

Tag asks Rachel what she wants to do; she says nothing. Monica says doing nothing is better than Ross buying a red MGB sports car. Ross claims to be a sports car enthusiast but doesn't know the horsepower. Phoebe and Rachel find the car attractive. Ross gets in but is trapped by cars in front and behind. Rachel then wants to get a piercing, but Phoebe pinches her to deter her. Tag says he's freaked about turning 25. Monica says no one handles birthdays well; Phoebe says 'least of all you' to Monica.
