and speak my mind and I really appreciate you and... (she almost cries) Oh God, get somebody else.
Oprah: No, you're almost done. You're almost done. You're okay. Jennifer: Yeah? Oprah: You're okay. Jennifer: Seriously?
Oprah: Yeah. Okay, no really. Okay, want to take a minute? Okay. Matthew: What do you think of all of us Oprah?
Oprah: I like you so much, it's gonna be bittersweet. I don't know. I don't know, what is NBC gonna do? I'm thinking: okay, what are they gonna do with that timeslot. It's gonna feel a little empty. Lisa: J-J-J-J-Joey Matt: J-J-J-J-Joey!
Oprah: Same timespot? Same timeslot. Matt: Hm-mmm. Oprah: Okay.
Matt: Depending how it goes today... (crosses his fingers and holds them up)
Oprah: Okay, I appreciate that you feel this deeply about each other. I really do.
Jennifer: (very emotional) And now we [haven't] gotten to those two yet (points to Lisa and Matt) Oprah: I know. I know. I'm waiting...
Jennifer: Oh no, I don't know if I can do it yet. Let's go on to someone else.
Oprah: Take a break. Deep breaths. Isn't this endearing? Jennifer: It's corny.
Oprah: No, really I do, I'm very moved by it. (to Jennifer) Alright, can you finish now?
Jennifer: Yes, I can. Uhm... Dearest Lisa Kudrow, who is also one of the most talented actresses and I've learned so much from you as a comedian, unbelievable, but a dramatic actress that knocks your socks off. And just basically being one of the most loving and (looking at Courteney) with these girls what we've got, what we've gained from each other and taught each other and watched each other get married and just lived through so much and so unconditional, you know. And I... I thinks she's an amazing. I love you. (Lisa pouts her lips and kisses her through the air to the other side of the room) And Matt Le Blanc is just, you know, the best big brother. Young big brother, you are older than me. Just a little bit. You know, I feel so protected by Matty and he's... talk about somebody who can read me a mile... (to audience) I know I seem obvious, but uhm...
Matt: She's actually very happy right now. You're not crying like a ...
Jennifer: I see him staring at me giving me this look, and then he just walks over to me and he says \to me, what's going on?\there's something to lose... Or figures something out, and he's just amazing, and one of the most loving, dearest, loving, funny and inspiring. I love him. Matt: Looking back at you.
Oprah: I can tell you... Can you tell right now, this is gonna be a rough week. The last week is gonna be very tough here. [We see previews of what's to come: Oprah's voice: Later...
Matthew: I wanna show you how romantic our bedroom is... Oprah's voice: The cast of Friends take me on a behind-the-scenes tour...
Oprah: What do you think you guys are gonna take from the set? Oprah's voice: and next... The true story about their multi-million dollar salary negotiations. Stay tuned.]
COMMERCIAL BREAK
[Chandler and Monica's apartment. The executive producers walk in and sit down on the couch. We see some clips from season 9 pass by.]
Oprah's voice: Friends' executive producers Kevin Bright, Marta Kauffman and David Crane have a big job ahead of them, writing the farewell episode of Friends.
David Crane: Right now we're figuring out how the show's gonna end.
Marta Kauffman: It'll be funny David: Yeah. Marta: And sweet...
David: And hopefully we'll also be a little bit sad.
Kevin Bright: The three of us are just focused on bringing Friends to a satisfying ending.
Marta: What we know if we want them to be happy and okay, so that we all feel good about saying goodbye.
Oprah's voice: And when they try to tell the cast what they mean to them, words didn't come easy. (Marta uses a handkerchief to wipe her tears away)
David: We've dreamed of an opportunity like this... And to have ten years of working with people who can do anything, has been the greatest joy.
Kevin: I've learned so much from you in so many ways, we at least owe you one promise, and that will be: we will never do a reunion movie.
Marta: (emotional) It's been... the best ten years... of my life. [We go back to Central Perk, to the cast and Oprah]
Oprah: And so when it's all done, all done, we had our last tears and your now home and it's that first week, what will you be doing?
Jennifer: Calling the Joey show. Oprah: Calling the Joey show...
Matthew: (pretends phoning) You need a sarcastic friend? Matt: Absolutely!
Oprah: Matthew, it's your time to tell me about all your friends. Matthew: Oh, uhm... Matty's a great kisser. Matt: It's true Oprah.
Matthew: Matty's the kind of guy that, you know, just has you back more than uhm... you know he's... somebody wrongs you and he's there with a baseball bat, ready to go. Not that he's a mafioso guy...
Oprah: Well he told us earlier, he can... kick ass... Matthew: But he really is... just a to the point, essential good guy. And uhm, Lisa... I think Lisa is one of the true original comedians. Uhm, David, uhm... David is the ultimate team player. I like to say about this... You know, it's very wel publicized that, you know, we did al these silly negotiations and all this stuff together.
Oprah: Yes, we all picture you all going in, you now, as this group. (gestures zigzagging quite fast, people walking)
Matthew: Yeah, I don't know if any of us actually went like this (imitates Oprah's gesture), but uhm, at the beginning certainly, David was the guy. David got the first movie, he got the first thing. David was the guy. And he was the one who suggested that we all go in and negotiate as a team, when he could have got in and negotiated for the most... Oprah: As the guy.
Matthew: As the guy. So he came to my dressing room and he said \think we should all do this as a team\And I said okay, idiot. So I will never forget David for that. And Courteney who I just love and... I love Courteney (kisses her) And I've just seen Courteney in a... Courteney's life just become kind of exactly the way that Courteney's wanted her life to be, and that makes
me real happy. And Jenny, you know, Jenny's a really hard worker, you know. Jenny, while being very sweet and stuff, has had some stuff in her life that she's had to address and she just... has, you know, and so right in front of all of our eyes that watched, Jen blossomed to this beautiful woman. Jennifer: Thank you Matty.
Oprah: That's wonderful, thanks Matthew.

Rachel: Can we please keep the chicken and the turkey and
everything on the other side of the table? The smell is just yuck! Will: (sneeze talks) Typical. Rachel: I'm sorry. What?
Will: I said it was typical. Typical of you, Rachel Green, Queen Rachel does whatever she wants in little Rachel land. (Does a fake hair flip.) ]
Oprah: When Brad was on, was that hard for you?
Jennifer: Uhm, yes! Not in a way of like, oh God, this is hard. But I was so nervous for him. He was so nervous. The two... Matty (Le Blanc) and Schwimmer, we were waiting off, off... What is it when we haven't entered yet.. David: Off stage.
Jennifer: Off stage, thank you! For his first entrance, and he kept saying \gonna mess up my line, I'm gonna mess up my first line.\line\and we were \
