Complete story — includes the ending

Rachel accidentally breaks Rosita, Joey’s recliner, while trying to shift it. When Rachel goes out with Joey to buy a new recliner, Chandler goes into Joey’s apartment and sits on the already-broken Rosita, causing him to think that he has broken his best friend’s favourite recliner. Guilt-stricken, he secretly swaps Rosita out for his own recliner. As a result, Joey believes that Rosita has been "healed", and Rachel gets to keep the new and luxurious La-Z-Boy for herself. Joey, who is jealous that Rachel gets the better chair, breaks “Rosita” once again in order to claim the new chair for himself. Ross and Monica visit their childhood home to collect old belongings before the house is sold. However, Monica learns that all the boxes that contain her childhood items were used to protect Jack’s Porsche during a flood in the garage; all her items were ruined, while Ross's were protected and completely intact. To mollify Monica, Jack gives her the Porsche, much to Ross’s dismay. Phoebe takes a telemarketing job selling printer toner and tries to save a customer named Earl ( Jason Alexander ) from committing suicide.
