* DeskSweepOfPassion: David wants his first kiss with Phoebe to be phenomenal and he feels he needs to do a big gesture, like sweeping stuff off of a desk and throwing her there in a fit of passion, but also doesn't feel like a 'sweeping sorta fella'. Phoebe assures him he is, so he attempts the sweeping. But he first removes a laptop and a microscope, and Phoebe points out he's just tidying. Then he sweeps some papers and grabs Phoebe, but then asks her to hop on the table. She does and then they finally kiss.

Added DiffLines:

Ross gets a monkey that he names Marcel.

Since no one has a date for New Year's Eve, the friends decide they will all stay single for the party and none of them will kiss anyone. However, one by one, everyone gets a date except for Ross.
