Best Jokes by Jill
After Chandler chokes and recovers with Jill's help (without him asking), there's an awkward beat. He says: 'Thank you. That was... That was...' Jill: 'Perfection?' Chandler: '[beat] Yes.' The callback is reinforced—Chandler used the word 'perfection' about the gum earlier, and now Jill uses it to describe the choking incident ironically.
Chandler mentally coaches himself while sitting with Jill: 'All right. Okay. What next? Blow a bubble. A bubble's good. It's got a, uh, boyish charm. It's impish. Here we go.' He blows a bubble. It pops. His panic: 'Nice going, imp-. Okay. It's okay. All I need to do is reach over and put it back in my mouth. Good save. We're back on track and I'm...chewing someone else's gum. This is not my gum. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. And now you're choking.'
Chandler is nervous with Jill Goodacre. She offers him gum: 'Would you like some gum?' Chandler asks: 'Is it sugarless?' She: 'Uh, sorry, it's not.' Chandler: 'Then, no, thanks.' Internal monologue: 'What the hell was that? Mental note: If Jill Goodacre offers you gum, you take it. If she offers you mangled animal carcass, you take it.'
So?
It's kind of slutty. It's yours.
