If you didn't notice, Black Friday has a ton of sales. Well DUH!! It's Black Friday. However, the best sale I took notice to was that Friends seasons were less than $10 as opposed to their usual $40. I was in South Dakota at the time so I thought, what a more perfect way to spend my trip home than watch a new Friends season? I begged my parents to stop at Best Buy before we left Rapid City so I could buy a new season. I decided to purchase Season 9, which leaves me with only Seasons 5 and 10 to obtain.

We got in our mini van and went on our way. My mom put disc 1 in, hit play, and I was ready to go. The season starts of with "The One Where No One Proposes" and concludes with "The One in Barbados". I can safely say that "The One in Barbados" could be on my Top 5 list of favorite episodes. This episode begins with Charlie and Joey in a relationship and Phoebe and David together, with David's intentions to propose in Barbados, and Ross and Rachel are single. This episode ends with Mike surprising Phoebe in Barbados just as David is about to propose, Charlie ends up with Ross, and Joey ends up with Rachel (David is left alone and leaves).

I think the reason I like this episode so much is because it just takes so many turns and you never truly expect any of it to happen. Joey and Rachel?? Really?? There is kind of a build up in the previous episodes that foreshadows they may get together, but you never would predict it. In "The One with Rachel's Dream", Rachel has a dream where she is attracted to Joey, but then believes she is really just attracted to his Days of Our Lives character Dr. Drake Ramoray.

Barbados really mixed things up in Friends and, although I have seen the following episodes, I hope to get Season 10 soon so I can find out what happens next.

Will you get mixed up in Friends?
