"The One Where Ross and Rachel... You Know" is the fifteenth episode of season two of the television situation comedy Friends.

Written by Michael Curtis & Gregory S. Malins

First aired: February 8, 1996

Days of Our Lives has picked up Joey's option, so he celebrates by buying a new television and two black leather recliners. He and Chandler get so comfortable, they don't move for days. They get around the problem of fixing dinner by ordering takeout food and having it delivered to Monica's apartment so she'll bring it to them.

Ross and Rachel are about to have their first date. They start making out, but Rachel can't stop laughing when it gets more physical. They finally get ready to go to dinner - only to have the museum page Ross with an emergency. Rachel tags along, but the emergency takes so long they fear the date is ruined. Ross decides to make the best of it - he grabs a fur from a display and some juice boxes, and they head for the planetarium. Between the music Ross has put over the PA and the "stars," the mood is set and they finally have sex with each other. All is well - until the next morning, when they wake up and find a bunch of parochial school children staring at them.

Monica caters a party for Dr. Richard Burke, an opthamologist friend of her parents, with Phoebe as her waitress. Monica and Richard flirt, but she doesn't think anything will come of it - until she sees him for an eye appointment, and they kiss at the end. At first, they decide their 21-year age difference is too much, but then decide to go for a relationship anyway.

At the end of the episode, Chandler and Joey are watching Beavis and Butt-head when the fire alarm goes off. They check to see if the floor is hot - and when it isn't, they kick back and relax some more.

• Dr. Richard Burke - Tom Selleck

• In the planetarium scene, Ross played the Wicked Game song by Chris Isaak.
• Ross says he has wanted a relationship with Rachel "since ninth-grade typing".
• Monica says she is 27, a "dangerous eye age". That would make the twenty-one-years-older Richard 48, though he is described as 50 by Ross and, in the next episode, by Jack Geller.
