317 滑雪之旅

罗斯和瑞秋的决裂，导致其他人只能分别同两人相处。

两人的分手还让钱德伤感不已，因为他想起了父母的离异。钱德戒烟再次失败。

瑞秋邀请除罗斯外所有人周末去滑雪；

中途休息时，他们被关在车外。

瑞秋拒绝打电话给罗斯求助，于是莫妮卡和菲比只得背着她这么干；

罗斯找卡萝借车，去救助他的朋友们；结果自己却因为电池用光而被困住。

罗斯还车时缠着卡萝诉苦，结果搅和了卡萝和苏珊的“周年庆”。

 

3.17 The One Without The Ski Trip

Ross and Rachel’s fighting causes the gang to try to hang out with them separately.

Chandler, under stress because Ross and Rachel’s break-up reminds him of his parents divorce, starts smoking again.

they get locked out of the car at a rest stop;

Rachel refuses to call Ross for help, so Monica and Phoebe do it behind her back;

he comes to their aid and then gets stuck because his battery dies.

Ross interferes with Carol’s and Susan’s “Anniversary”.
