Ross tries to get Rachel her old job back so she will not have to move to Paris. However, when he succeeds, Rachel becomes upset that, although she will not have to leave her friends, she will not be able to visit the ' Fashion Capital of the World '. In the end, Ross persuades her to do what she wants to do. Note: This is Maggie Wheeler's last appearance as Janice.
