* BadLiar: When Joey says the hotel called about an eyelash curler being left in the room, Chandler panics and says it belongs to him. Joey says he just figured that Chandler hooked up with a woman, and an embarrassed Chandler admits he should've just said that in the first place.

When Monica later repeats that story to Phoebe, Chandler gets nervous, as Joey appears to consider what this means, but the moment passes quickly enough with no issue. Then Monica mentions losing an eyelash curler, and it all comes together for Joey.

'''Chandler:''' I said relax, ''Monnnn''.
