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.

A hernia-bearing Joey tries to pick up a quick acting gig; Rachel discovers that Ross never had their marriage annulled.

Monica takes Rachel to the hospital; Ross asks his dad (Elliott Gould) for advice on becoming a father.

Joey appears as a celebrity contestant on "$100,000 Pyramid"; Monica and Rachel hire an ungainly stripper for Phoebe's bachelorette party.

When the girls lose money to the guys in a poker match they seek out Monica's Aunt Iris, a famous card player, for lessons and then demand a rematch.
