Trivia

Goofs

  • Phoebe mentions that her roommate, Denise, will be away until December 26. However, Rachel continues living in the apartment until it burns down in "The One Where Ross Dates A Student" (S6E18), which presumably takes place in late spring or early summer. What's more, when the apartment is finally ready during the next season, Phoebe makes no mention of Denise when she asks Rachel about moving back in, and Denise is never mentioned or shown again. It is possible, though unlikely, that Denise meant December 26 of a different year in the future.
  • When Phoebe breaks the flower vase and takes her eyes off the babies to put it in the trash, one of the babies is missing. When the camera goes back to the babies, in the right corner (Rachel's old room), you can see a camera moving out of the shot briefly.
  • 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.
  • Although Leslie is a girl, there is a brief shot of male genitals on the baby while it's in the drawer. Possibly because although the triplets in the show are two girls and one boy, three of the babies that were playing the Buffay triplets were boys, and this was obvious due to either loose clothing or poor camera angles.
  • Phoebe asks Monica and Chandler if they would like to help watch three puppies, Chandler says sure. However we learn later that Chandler is afraid of dogs. Although he is reluctant to watch the dogs, possibly hinting at his fear.
  • When Phoebe is looking for Leslie and is looking under the couch saying "where are you Leslie" you can partially see a microphone in the right side of the screen moving out of the shot as well as the camera persons shadow on the rug.
  • When Monica and Chandler come home after Phoebe has watched the babies, the blueish purple kitchen chair has nothing on it and Chandler explains to Monica that the messy apartment is the setting of Phoebe's triumph and she took care of the babies all by herself. Then Monica says "I shouldn't freak out because this is what it's going to look like when you and I have babies, when will that be"? Then Chandler says "Phoebe would you take a look at this mess" now the kitchen chair has a leopard print garment laying on the seat.
