STUNG BY CRITIC, MONICA GETS COOKING; RENA SOFER GUEST-STARS -- When Monica's (Courteney Cox Arquette) restaurant cooking gets trashed by a newspaper reviewer, she drags Joey (Matt Le Blanc) along to a food-criticism class taught by the same man in hopes of changing his mind -- but when he rejects her most recent batch of bouillabaise, she pouts in a nearby beginner's cooking seminar where she is hailed as a culinary goddess. Meanwhile, Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) is steamed when a cute salesgirl (Emmy Award-winning guest star Rena Sofer, "General Hospital") flirts with Ross (David Schwimmer) when they go shopping for baby gear and a psyched-out Chandler (Matthew Perry) gets questionable coaching from Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) before a big job interview.

Oh...Kay...the highlight reality for this is that...hmmm...

1.  R&R go shopping for things for the baby.  Rachel is panicked because they don't have anything and she wants everything for the baby.  They go to a baby store where the salesperson is very interested in Ross.  For example, when she asks Ross what he does, he says he's a palentologist...she gets really interested and says..."Kinda like Indiana Jones, right?"  He gets embarrassed but, then adds, "Yeah!" all Ross-y...you know?

2.  Monica gets a very bad review and has to prove that she is the best cook!  She is devistated.  And she decides to go to the cooking class and takes Joey with her for support because Chandler is applying for a new job.

3.  Chandler is applying for a new job!  (Basically it's the same kind of job).  However, he wants to interview for a new job.  However, the gang warns him that he comes on "a little too strong..." as a first impression.  Chandler is very surprised about this and asks Pheebes for some help to "tone it down".

And...I'll write more specifics about this later.  So, stay tuned.
