When you're young and single in the city, your friends are your family. A tight-knit group of friends living in Manhattan -- three girls and three guys -- navigate the complexities of adulthood and rely on the companionship, comfort and support they get from each other to deal with the pressures of life.

Chandler gets nervous when everyone learns about Monica; Joey's new girlfriend gets physical; Ross moves into a new apartment but fails to impress his new neighbors.

Ross becomes upset when someone at work takes his sandwich from the refrigerator and eats it; Joey finds himself in a mess when he tries to cover for Chandler and Monica's dating.

Phoebe finds a police officer's badge and goes on a spree of arrests until she meets up with the owner; Joey thinks he's in love with Monica; Ross buys a couch but won't pay to have it delivered.

Phoebe helps the Salvation Army and learns some truths about New Yorkers; Rachel gets a date with her neighbor who has a close relationship with his sexy sister; Joey tries to write a play in which he can be the star.
