Did anyone see it last week?

We've only just got our telly hooked up and so I missed the first episode of the new series & was hoping someone would like to do a detailed synapsys of the story/jokes.

You missed the following episodes:

The one with the Kleenex

Monica walks in on Ross masturbating over a photo of his marsupial. Many 'spanking the monkey' jokes ensue.

The one where the deep-seated childhood insecurities lead to a life of moral decay

Phoebe becomes a prostitute.

The one with the cake

Chandler's empty corporate lifestyle, huge wages and the pressure of dating an obsessive compulsive lead him to cocaine addiction. Believing his stash to be icing sugar, Monica bakes it in a cake for the big thanksgiving dinner... with hilarious consequences!

The one where phoebe learns the banjo

Joey and Chandler are raped by hillbillies whilst the guys are on a canoeing trip. Ross is forced to shoot one of the inbred rednecks with a huge bow and arrow. Then breaks his leg.


Still to come:

The one where everyone dies horribly: part one

After making one witty put-down to many, Chandler is brutally stabbed to death with a huge bread knife by guest-star Joe Pesci. Then grouchy neighbour Mr Heckles rises from the grave to hunt down Monica in a blatant Scream cash-in. Meanwhile, Rachael has become such a pathetic meaningless cipher of a human being that she ceases to exist altogether.

The one where everyone dies horribly: part two

Wracked with grief, Ross becomes even more of a miserable, whining little shit. Eventually his colleagues at the museum get fed up with his incessant self-pity and beat him to death with a frozen caveman. Meanwhile, Joey attempts to eat a ridiculously large sandwich and his head explodes. In a final twist, Phoebe is revealed as the crazed mastermind behind their deaths and we realise that her lovable idiosyncrasies actually masked a deep-rooted psychosis.

Our personnel manager at work is a double for Newman, as well as being a usless shit.
