Chandler: Oh no!!! We locked the door from the outside.
Joey: I know, we'll call Monica!
[Chandler picks up then phone and dials her number.]
Chandler: Monica, It's me Chandler.
Monica's voice from phone: Chandler, why did you call from across the hall.
Chandler: Somebody locked the door from the outside.
Moncia's voice from phone: The outside? The only person who has the keys
are you and Joey. You mean you locked yourself in?
Chandler: It is not funny.
[Rachel opens the door.]
Rachel: Hey guys.
Chandler: Hey Rach.
Monica's voice from phone: While you're in there and not able to get out
I'd just like to say that I'm the one who swapped your whipped cream with
your shaving cream.
[Chandler puts down the phone and leaves. He comes back pulling Moncia
by the neck of her T-Shirt. He picks up the shaving cream and sprays it
all over her hair.]
Chandler: Alright Joey let's go.
Joey: Okay.
[Joey & Chandler leave. The window flashes blue light.]
[SCENE: The Xerox Place. Chloe & Chandler & Joey are there. Chandler
is trying to convince Chloe to say no to his past self.]
Chandler: Alright look you can't do this! I think I'm from the future.
How scary is that?
Chloe: That's sexy.
Joey: Well what about this?!
[Past Chandler & Joey walk in.]
Past Joey: Cool!
Past Chandler: This is too weird.
Chandler: Alright this is it. I'm going.
[SCENE: Outside Xerox Place. We hear from inside sounds of a fight. Joey
& Chandler leave the Xerox place.]
[Chandler pulls out of photo of Ross & Rachel in the middle of yelling
at each other. The photo fades to Ross & Rachel kissing.]
Joey: Yes!
Chandler: Come on! Let's go!
[Chandler & Joey get inside the delorean. The delorean takes off and
gets struck by lightning. The delorean vanishes the way it normally does.]
[SCENE: The young Ross from TOW The Prom Video. Walking across the road.
The delorean appears and hits Ross. The delorean screeches to a halt. Chandler
& Joey get out of the delorean.]
Joey: What happened?!
Chandler: I don't we got struck by lightning and we flew back in time and
hit Ross.
Joey: Well what are going to do just leave him here.
Chandler: I don't know!
[Young Chloe comes running out of a house.]
Young Chloe: Oh, oh what happened?
Joey: We accidently saw some guy hit this guy with a car.
Chandler: Yeah.
Young Chloe: Oh, he's cute! He goes to my school, I think I'll go with
him to the Prom.
[Chandler gets out his photo of Ross & Rachel kissing and it changes
into Ross & Chloe kissing.]
Chandler: Let's get out of here. I've got an idea.
[Joey & Chandler get in the delorean. The car drives off.]
[SCENE: Prom night outside the high school. The band is there. Chandler
& Joey enter and knock two of the band members while the others aren't
looking. The band turns around.]
Band Guy1: What happened?
Chandler: Oh this crazy maniac came and hit these two on the head.
Band Guy2: Oh nuts!!! He's the only guy who has the keys to the car.
Band Guy3: That means we can't pick up Chip!
Chandler:(happy) Bummer.
[Chandler takes out his photo of Ross & Chloe kissing. The two fade
away altogether.]
Band Guy4: That means we have no lead singer and no lead guitarist for
the prom. We'll tell the school they'll have to call it off.
Joey: I got an idea.
[SCENE: Inside Prom. Chandler & Joey are on the stage. Joey is playing
the guitar, Chandler is singing.]
Chandler: Earth angels, earth angels, Will you be mine? My darling dear,
love you for all time.......
[Young Ross is dancing with Young Rachel on the dance floor. Chip walks
up to Young Rachel.]
Young Rachel: Hey, Chip.
Chip: May I have this dance?
Young Rachel: Well, I...... (looks at Young Ross) I think I want to spend
the rest of the prom with Ross.
Chandler: I'm just a fool, fool in love with you!
[Young Rachel kisses Young Ross.]
[SCENE: A fair. The delorean appears from nowhere. Joey & Chandler
get out. Ross, Moncia and Phoebe are there. Rachel walks up.]
Ross:(singing) I got chills there multiplying and I'm losing control 'cause
the power of love it's electrifying.
Rachel:(singing) You better shape up. 'Cause I need a man and I've got
my heart set on you.
[The two kiss. Pretty similar ending to Grease huh?]
