Rachel forces Ross to get the annulment, and as retribution for him lying to her, she fills out the annulment paperwork saying Ross is gay, mentally unstable, and addicted to intravenous drugs. While he tries to tone down the accent and pleads with his students to help him get a permanent teaching job at the university, Rachel discovers she and Ross are still married, and charges into his class yelling at him. Ross is given a guest professorship at New York University and, eager to impress his students, inexplicably lapses into a fake English accent. Unable to afford treatment and unwilling to borrow the money from Chandler, he takes on an acting role to renew his insurance, during which the hernia helps out with an uncooperative child star. Joey's health benefits lapse just as he develops a hernia. Meanwhile, Joey has trouble finding a new roommate. Chandler claims Monica still considers it only her apartment, resulting in a fight and Ross being the mediator. Monica flatly dismisses Chandler's idea to turn the spare bedroom into a game room.

Ross denies to Phoebe that he loves Rachel, yet invites her to move in with him, all while Rachel is unaware they are still legally married. When Monica assures her they will, Rachel becomes distraught and seeks comfort from Ross, just as he is about to tell her the truth about their marriage. Rachel then upsets Monica by her blasé reaction, convinced Monica and Chandler will never go through with it. Rachel mistakenly believes all three will be living together until Monica explains Rachel has to move out. Joey reacts badly to the news, though Chandler reassures him their friendship will remain the same. Monica and Chandler announce they are moving in together. Ross adamantly denies this and unsuccessfully attempts to secretly annul the marriage himself. Whilst he and Phoebe consult other women to see whether they would date him after three divorces, one of the women hypothesises that Ross is still in love with Rachel, to which Phoebe agrees. Ross promises Rachel to get their Vegas marriage annulled, only to shock Phoebe by confessing he cannot go through with it, unable to handle another failed marriage. As a tribute to them, Courteney Cox-Arquette was given top billing for the episode, and "-Arquette" was added to every cast member's last name in the opening credits. Opening Credit Gag: Courteney Cox married David Arquette between seasons 5 and 6 and she changed her last name to Cox-Arquette. Back at home, Monica and Chandler ponder the idea of marriage and decide to take their relationship forward a step by living together. She becomes angry when Joey sleeps most of the way rather than playing his promised fun road trip games she unnerves Joey by picking up a hitchhiker while he was napping. Phoebe and Joey drive back to New York in Phoebe's cab.
