Phoebe pops in to visit Monica, who is mopping a banana off her ceiling. Phoebe accepts this bizarre circumstance, admitting that the spirit of an Indian woman lives in her ceiling.
With an exasperated look from Monica that goes unnoticed by Phoebe, Phoebe asks about a package Monica received in the mail. Monica admits that she never buys stuff from infomercials, but she just had to have this product.
Monica reveals it’s Waxine, which Phoebe recognizes. The two exchange excited banter about the waxing kit, quoting the informercial’s sales pitch about the product’s organic nature and pain-free quality.
The scene cuts to Monica’s bedroom, where she and Phoebe are in the middle of trying it out. Phoebe reads the directions aloud, and Monica rips off a strip of the waxed linen according to the instructions.
As predicted by the audience by not by Phoebe and Monica, the hair removal process is not pain-free as advertised. Monica complains about how painful it is, and Phoebe tells her it can’t be that bad.
However, when Phoebe removes a strip from her leg, she screams in pain as Monica did. The audience is left laughing at these two women’s antics. This demonstrates why Friends is one of the funniest sitcoms ever!
