4. Which of these is Chandler NOT afraid of?

Answer: Carrots

Well, at least it's never told he's afraid of carrots, and he hasn't been scared when he's been near them.

5. How did Ross find out about Monica and Chandler?

Answer: He saw them through his apartment window.

Rachel overheard a phone conversation between Monica and Chandler. Phoebe saw them through the window in Ross' apartment. Joey, as amazing as it sounds, put the puzzle together himself, figuring out their secret.

6. Who guest stars in the role as Rachel's sister, Jill?

Answer: Reese Witherspoon

Jill dated Ross throughout two episodes. Rachel was having a fight with her at the same time, so she was convinced Jill was only going out with Ross, to make her mad. It turned out Rachel was right in her statement. Rachel's other sister, Amy, is played by Christina Applegate.

7. Ross once dated one of his students.

Answer: True

Her name was Elizabeth. The role of her father was played by Bruce Willis.

8. Rachel once paid 1000 dollars for a pet. What kind of pet did she buy?

Answer: A cat

She bought a pure breed sphinx cat. She sold it to Gunther for 1500 dollars, but he thought it was a snake.

9. Is Monica allergic to cat hair?

Answer: Yes

Monica is supposed to invent recipes for a product called Fistachios, which is made primarily of reconstituted fishbits. One of the ingredients in Fistachios is cat hair. She's asked to try one, but is forced to say no due to her allergies.

10. Phoebe's birthmother killed herself.

Answer: False

Phoebe's real mother (her birthmother) never killed herself. The woman Phoebe thought was her real mother, up until the end of season three, did kill herself.
