If a picture is worth a thousand words, then I should be able to guess the plot of these episodes.
- Chandler is some sort of boss. He's in love with Monica.
- Joey is a struggling actor, who eventually lands on a soap opera. He loves food.
- Ross is a paleontologist and/or loves dinosaurs. He had a pet/friend monkey. He is Monica's brother and dates Rachel.
- Rachel has some type of creative job. She had a fling with an intern. She dates Ross.
- Monica is neat/a control freak who makes delicious candy. She is Ross' sister and is in love with Chandler.
- Phoebe is a free spirit and freelance guitarist. She only recently learned how to ride a bicycle.
- The three men live together and the three women live together across the hall in a New York apartment. Actually, no. Someone recently told me Phoebe does not live there. So Phoebe is homeless. The group likes to meet and gossip at the Central Perk coffee shop.
OK, let's begin.
Roommate Game Night
What I think it's about:
The group splits up into boys versus girls to see who can invent the better game.
The girls have a very thought-out game, but argue over whether or not they should have a blue playing card because "blue is supporting the boys!" They finally decide to make all the cards blue as a move of intimidation.
The boys, on the other hand, start discussing all of the games they used to enjoy playing when they were younger, coming upon the conclusion that no other game can ever be better than Truth or Dare, so they invent Dare or Truth, leading to Chandler exclaiming "This is the best game ever!!"
Apparently what it's actually about:
"The One With the Baby Shower" (Season 8, Episode 20)
Joey convinces Ross and Chandler to practice playing a game called Bamboozled, a game show he's auditioning for. At first they make fun of him, but they all end up loving it. The girls aren't creating their own game — they're across the hall at Rachel's baby shower.

Never a Bride
What I think it's about:
The girls decide to be brides for a day after going to their umpteenth wedding as bridesmaids.
While at the reception of their friend's wedding, Rachel pitches the idea to a depressed Monica, who is complaining about Chandler's lack of proposal. Monica's initially not into it, so Rachel asks Phoebe to join in, causing Phoebe to mutter her catchphrase "Umm...OK."
However, the three friends soon realize that it's not much fun being a bride without a wedding to go to.
Apparently what it's actually about:
"The One With All the Wedding Dresses" (Season 4, Episode 20)
Since Emily, Ross's fiancée, is in London and can't pick up her own wedding dress, Monica helps her out. But instead of just taking the dress from the store, she tries it on herself. By the end of the episode, Phoebe comes over to the apartment wearing a wedding dress, and Rachel tries one on as well to cope with her break up from Joshua.
