Hello and welcome to today’s English lesson with the TV series Friends, featuring Monica and Chandler. In this scene, Monica is sick. But she can’t admit it to herself because she is a strong woman and never gets sick. Yet, she apparently is. Now, Monica wants to seduce Chandler to have sex with her to prove that she is fine and in the prime of her life.
As always, you watch the scene with subtitles first. Then, I explain all the vocabulary. And finally, you can test yourself by watching the scene again without any subtitles.

PS: If you want to watch an equally funny scene with Rachel and Ross, I recommend you watch this video next: • RACHEL Dances NAKED in... In this video, Rachel dances naked in her apartment. Ross can see that from his apartment and thinks Rachel is trying to seduce him. But is it really the case? Let’s find out by watching the video.
