Monica: Well, this must've brought back some really bad memories for you, Ross.
Phoebe: Why?
Monica: Well, Ross was mugged as a kid.
Phoebe: You were?
Ross: Yeah, it was pretty traumatic. It was outside St. Marc's Comics...you know, I-I-I was just there minding my own
business, you know, seeing what kinda trouble Spiderman got into that week-
Monica: Wonder Woman!
Ross: Anyway, I was heading towards this bakery, you know, to pick up a couple of dozen Linzer torte for someone... when out of
nowhere this-this, this thug with a pipe jumps out and says: "Gimme your money, punk!"
Phoebe: Oh my God...
Ross: I know! And-and the worst part was they took my backpack which had all the original artwork I had done for my own comic book: "Science Boy."
Monica: Oh yeah! Wh-what was his superpower again?
Ross: A superhuman thirst for knowledge. I'd better get to class.

Phoebe: I know...I mugged Ross!
Phoebe: Hey, you!

Phoebe: Alright, nothing is worth this. I have, I have a confession to make. Ok, you know that, that girl that mugged you when you were a kid?
Ross: Wh-What're you talking about? It wasn't a girl. It was this-this huge dude.
Phoebe: You don't have to lie anymore, Ross, I know that it was a fourteen year-old girl.
Ross: No, it wasn't.
Phoebe: Yes, it was.
Ross: No, it wasn't. You don't think I would've defended myself against a fourteen year-old...
Phoebe: "Gimme your money, punk!"
Ross: Oh my God, it was you! I can't believe it, you...you mugged me?
Phoebe: Yeah, and I'm so, so sorry, Ross, I'm sorry, but, you know, if you think about it, it's kinda neat. I mean, well, it's-it's just that
I've always felt kind of, you know, like an outsider, you know, the rest of you have these connections that like way back and, you know, now, you and I have...have a great one!
Ross: It's not the best!
Phoebe: I know, I'm sorry, please forgive me. I don't know what to say-
Ross: There's nothing you can say. That was the most humiliating thing that ever happened to me.
Phoebe: Really? Even more humiliating than-
Ross: Yeah, let's not do this!
Phoebe: Hey, Ross! Ok, look, I know you're still mad at me, but can I just talk to you for a sec?
Ross: Sure, go ahead. Oh, sorry, sure, go ahead.
