The One With Phoebe's Husband.

"Mom, would you relax. That was 10 blocks from here and, the woman was walking alone at night, I would never do that. Mom, c'mon, stop worrying. This is a safe street, this is a safe building, there's nothing-" All of a sudden, a pigeon landed on the table as Rachel was on the phone to her mother. "Oh my God, oh my God, oh I gotta go, I gotta go, I gotta go. OK, that's fine, you just read the paper, I'm gonna get a pot, it's not for you." She grabbed a pot and a lid from the cupboard nearby, "ok, that's fine, read the Family Circus, enjoy the gentle comedy."

She captured the pigeon in the tin and put the lid on top. "Aaahh, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, aaaaahh"

There was a knock on the door, and Rachel hoped for some help from the others. "It's open you guys."

Instead of one of the other guys walking through the door, it was a male stranger, "hi, hi can I help you?" Rachel asked,

"Yeah, I'm looking for Phoebe, does she still live here?"

Rachel shook her head, "uh, no she doesn't but I can, I can get a message to her."

"Great. Uhh, just tell her her husband stopped by." Rachel's mouth fell open in surprise and shock,

"What?" Not realizing what she was doing, Rachel's hand fell, making the lid open with the pigeon flying out. The male stranger looked surprised at the pigeon appearing,

"Hey, how did you do that?"

Meanwhile, Lily was still avoiding Chandler, not meeting his eye, or even speaking, only the small greetings. Though they had now even been on a real date, the criticism Chandler gave his friend had hurt her, as she had liked him, more than a friend, but it seemed he did not feel the same way about her.

Chandler, though, had gone to great lengths to try and get Liliana to speak to him once again. The thought of him rejecting someone who potentially liked him and someone himself he was beginning to love more and more each day, killed him knowing what could have happened may no longer happen.

Chandler would wait for Lily in the morning when she set off to work to try and talk to her, but Lily just kept her head down shyly and walked on. When the gang was together, she barely spoke, only when it was the girls or the boys talking to her she would respond, but with Chandler, he could see he would have to try harder for her forgiveness.

Walking into Monica's apartment, Chandler sighed, grabbing a drink and sitting down next to Monica and Rachel.

"Still no luck with Lily?" Rachel asked, smiling at him sympathetically.

"No, I finally find one girl that I like, that actually likes me and then I bitch about the fact that there aren't any great women out there! I'm such an idiot!" He ran a hand through his head and leaned against the back of the sofa.

Monica and Rachel looked at each other, "Chandler, snap out of it. You were a dumbass to her, yes, but you can still get the girl, you just need to show her how you feel. Show her how sorry you are and how much you like her, or maybe even love her."

"Oh by the way, did you know Phoebe has a husband?" Monica asked Chandler,

"Oh my god, does everyone have a better love life than me?" Chandler rolled his eyes and walked out the door into his apartment, now figuring other ways to try and get Lily to talk to him.
