So, uh, here's your office set. Wow! Huh? Mac Machiavelli,
private investigator. Huh? Let's, uh, get you into
wardrobe for a fitting. Okay. Hey, uh, when do I get
to meet the robot? Uh, I'm sorry, why don't we
do that right now? - He's right here.
- Okay. - Joey Tribbiani, this is..
- Oh, wow! He is so lifelike. Unbelievable. This is Wayne,
the man who created and operates C.H.E.E.S.E. How do you do there, Wayne? Uh, I'll let you two guys
get acquainted, huh? Okay. Sorry about that.. Uh, so where's C.H.E.E.S.E? C.H.E.E.S.E. is right...here. [whirring] Nice to meet you, Mac. [laughs] This is like the temporary
robot, right? No. Why? Well, I-I just,
I just thought it was gonna be like a really cool robot,
you know? Like the terminator
or uh, when I first saw you. I spent two years
developing this machine it's absolutely state
of the art. I'm sorry, it just.. I don't know, it doesn't really
look like it can do anything. It can do this. - Hi.
- Oh, hi. Oh! This is my father,
Paul Stevens. Dad, this is Ross Geller. It-it's great
to meet you, Paul. Usually prefer Eliz's boyfriends to address me as Mr. Stevens. Oh, of course,
of course, Mr. Stevens. Yeah. So, Ross.. ...what your problem? Eh-wh, excuse me? Why can't you get
a girlfriend of your own age? Oh, that's funny. Um...it's not funny. I don't like you going out
with my daughter, Ross. Okay, um...I can,
I can see that. Um, but I think
if you give me um, one chance.. ...I-I can change your mind. Okay. - What?
- Okay. I'll give you one chance
to change my mind. You got one minute. - Daddy?
- Fine! Two minutes. Go. [indistinct] Yeah. One minute fifty seconds. Okay, um,
I want you to know I have never done anything
like this before. I mean, I mean I've been in,
um, relationships in general uh, but I have never done
it with a student. I mean, I not.. Not it!
I mean, I mean, I don't. We haven't done "it". Uh, we, I mean.. ...I mean, we've-we've
done stuff, but I.. Okay. Okay, a joke. A joke, lighten the mood. Umm, two guys go into a bar. - One of them is Irish.
- I'm Irish. And the Irish guy
wins the joke. - Ross.
- Ross. How crazy that
we'd run into you? - Oh, my God. Thank you.
- Oh. Um, uh, Mr. Stevens,
I'd like you to meet my friends uh, this is Phoebe,
Monica, and Chandler. So, you're Elizabeth's father,
huh? I can see now
where she gets her.. ...rugged handsomeness. Is-is there a-a Mrs. Stevens? There's a Mr. Bing. No, unfortunately Lizzie's mom
passed away shortly after she was born. I raised her by myself. - Ooh.
- Ooh. Yeah, I get that a lot. Okay, um, why don't we all
take a seat, you know. And, uh, and I'll get us all
some, uh, some coffees. Yeah, why don't you.. Uh, and you guys can talk about
whatever, whatever you want. You know?
Whatever pops into your head. You know,
it is so strange seeing Ross here at this time of day,
'cause usually well, he's at
the children's hospital. Yeah. Not looking for dates. So, uh, Monica,
is Ross's sister. - Yeah, he's a great brother.
- I had a sister. - Ooh.
- She passed away. - Ooh.
- Ooh. No, you don't have
to do that every time. But, uh, Ross,
Ross is a great guy. I-I was roommates
with him in college. Huh, funny story. Your roommate in college
died, didn't he? A part of him did, yes. Okay, here we are,
Paul, Elizabeth. So, I hope you guys were finding
something to talk about. - Yes, we were just--
- Hi, sorry, I'm late. But I am ready ready to talk you up. When does Liz's father get here? - I'm already here.
- Oh! Ross is so great!
