McKean's character hired Monica to develop recipes for a chocolate substitute called 'Mocklate.' At the end of the show, she's called back to his office for an assignment dealing with a product called 'Fishachios,' and they have the following exchange, which always cracks me up. Mocklate Guy: 'Thanks for coming back in.' Monica: 'No problem. I have no morals and I need the cash.' Mocklate Guy: 'It's like I'm looking in a mirror.'

9. Which comedian appeared on the show as an encyclopedia salesman who sells Joey the volume for 'V'?

Answer: Penn Jillette

All four have appeared on the show, but Jillette was the salesman. Joey started using lots of 'V' words and topics in his conversations, but got stymied when he tried to start a discussion about the Vietnam War that turned into a discussion about the Korean War, which he knew nothing about.
10. What two actors that appeared on 'Friends' are both in the movie 'Saving Private Ryan'?

Answer: Giovanni Ribisi and Adam Goldberg

Ribisi plays Phoebe's half-brother Frank Jr. Goldberg appeared as Eddie the wacked-out guy who was Chandler's roommate when Joey moved out of the apartment after getting his 'Days of Our Lives' gig. Rappaport played the cop that Phoebe dated after she found his badge, but he was not in 'Saving Private Ryan.' Davies was in 'Saving Private Ryan,' but he has not (as of November 2001) appeared on 'Friends.'
11. Which 'Barney Miller' regular appeared on the show as Ross's divorce lawyer after Ross and Rachel got married in Las Vegas?

12. In the episode where the gang comes up with their 'freebie lists' -- the list of celebrities they could be with without having it impact their current relationship -- who did Ross take off of his list, only to run into her later at Central Perk?

Answer: Isabella Rossellini

Ross took Isabella off of his list because of Chandler's observation that she was 'too international.' Ross replaced Isabella with Winona Ryder (who has appeared on the show, but not as herself) because she was 'local.' Rachel gives Ross permission to go after Isabella even though she's not on the list. (Rachel said they could consider her an 'alternate.') Monica asked Rachel if she was sure, and Rachel cracked 'Honey, he's about to go hit on Isabella Rossellini. I'm just sorry we don't have popcorn.'
13. Monica had a very serious relationship with an older man, Dr. Richard Burke. Who played Richard?

Answer: Tom Selleck

After Richard and Monica broke up she had his son Dr. Tim Burke (played by Michael Vartan, who now appears on 'Alias') over for thanksgiving dinner, but kissing him was too weird because it reminded her of Richard.
