Meanwhile Joey and Rachel keep kissing and Chandler, Monica and Phoebe keep listening through the wall that lead to Ross' bedroom.

Ross tells them that he's looking for Joey to tell him about Charlie and leaves the room not but after he says goodbye to the wall as well.

Joey and Rachel are still in the bedroom and Ross knocks on their door, Rachel tells Joey to hide and turns around looking for a good spot, as Chandler opens the back door and takes Joey out of the room. Rachel turns around again and looks for Joey, not aware that the others were listening.
Ross comes into the room telling Rachel what happened with Charlie, at the same time she looks for Joey in the room, wondering where he is. At the same time Joey is listening with the rest what Ross said.
Once Rachel is alone again everyone goes into the bedroom and convinces Joey to tell Ross about him and Rachel.

The next day, Monica goes to the salon and gets a new hairstyle, Cornrows with shellfish at the tips, Chandler affirms that he can see her scalp, but Monica is really excited about the new cut and won't take them off.
On the plane, Joey is worried about sitting with Charlie after breaking up and Ross offers to sit next to her, Chandler is reluctant to sit next to Monica because of her new haircut, but he does it anyway.

After some teasing, Mike tells Phoebe that he had in fact been dating another girl for three months, saying that he'll break up with her that night.
Rachel and Ross decide to trade seats so Ross and Joey can talk.

Ross tells Joey everything about him and Charlie and Joey stays cool with it since he couldn't be mad, because he kissed Rachel. When he is about to tell Ross what happened with him and Rachel, Ross interrupts Joey saying how much of a great friend he is, that he may even think of Joey as his best friend instead of Chandler, which makes Joey excited of taking Chandler out of the equation.
Ross and Rachel cross paths once more and Rachel realizes Joey didn't tell Ross, because of Ross' insinuations of having "Dirty dreams about this", referring to him and Charlie, and Rachel agrees with Joey that she'll tell Ross.

When they land, Monica is still excited about the cornrows, and says that she'll show everyone at work the next day. Chandler uses this opportunity to tell her that he hates the cornrows, mentioning a few comments the other friends had about it, except Joey's because he never realized Monica changed her hairstyle.
At Ross' place Rachel arrives with Emma with the intention of telling Ross. But when she's about to tell him, he complains and curses that there were a few bottles of shampoo that exploded inside his bag which ruins Rachel's attempt.

At Mike's place, Phoebe meets with his girlfriend,Precious (a name that Phoebe says she can't say, calling her "Suzie" instead,) and tells her about Mike's proposal, convincing Precious that Mike's not worth it, which she believes. The moment Mike enters the apartment Precious slaps him hoping that "he rots in hell", and leaves at once.

Rachel and Joey decide who's going to try to tell Ross, but they end up pashing at the same time Ross comes into the room.
