(116 votes)

The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5

Factual error: Phoebe discovers that one of the babies has wandered away, and finds the baby inside the open drawer. Yeah, no. These babies aren't even walking yet, much less are they able to lift themselves up past the height of their own bodies and launch themselves into a drawer.

The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Phoebe knocks over the vase, after she says, "Well, that's just the way things go" and turns around to face the babies again, you can see a crew member coming out of Rachel's room. When Phoebe starts looking for the missing baby, the shadow of the crew member is visible on the right of the screen as the baby is placed in the drawer. (00:15:30)

Suggested correction: The bin for the diapers is near the vase, and she glances at that before throwing the diaper.

The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: Phoebe knocks over a vase and has to clean it up because "Let's face it; we're at Monica's." When she turns back around and notices one of the babies is missing, the baby on the right (in the striped top) falls over towards the other baby. A split second later when the shot changes the baby is sitting upright again. (00:15:15)

The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5

Visible crew/equipment: When the camera follows Phoebe as she is going to clean up the vase she knocked over, the foot of the baby is still visible in the shot and you can see how someone picked it up as the foot goes straight up. Then as the camera moves back revealing there are only 2 babies, you can see a shadow of a crew member moving on the ground. (00:16:00)

The One With The Jellyfish - S4-E1

Question: When Ross and Rachel are fighting, Chandler hides behind the door and bursts out saying, "I knew it!" When Rachel says, "It's not that common, it doesn't happen to every guy, and it is a big deal!" is this just a Chandler moment or is there another joke I have missed?

Answer: The statements that she's contradicting (that it is common, it happens to every guy, and it's not a big deal), are the things that a woman commonly says to a man who is suffering from erectile difficulty, typically to assuage his bruised ego. However, most men do not believe that these statements are true, as evidenced by Chandler's outburst. He's so caught up in the proof that women are lying about it that he gives himself away.
