Six young people from New York City, on their own and struggling to survive in the real world, find the companionship, comfort and support they get from each other to be the perfect antidote to the pressures of life.
At Central Perk Rachel runs into her friend from college, Melissa, and it turns out they share something more than just a friendship. Meanwhile, Monica plans the seating arrangement for the wedding and is taken by surprise when Joey mentions that his parents are coming to the wedding too. Also, Chandler and Ross argue who gets to wear a celebrity tux for the event.
