Jennifer Aniston recently dropped a clip on her Instagram story. In the story, she tagged her longtime friend and former costar Lisa Kudrow. It showed Phoebe Buffay’s scene from Friends where the character walks into the Central Perk coffee house and wishes her buddies “Hey, Happy Christmas Eve Eve.” This moment took place in the second season of the show in episode nine, ‘The One with Phoebe’s Dad’.

 

This post comes after reports revealed the Emmy winner has been planning to celebrate Christmas with friends. After the sudden passing of Matthew Perry, they wanted to dedicate this year to him. While cherishing their memories with him, the actress had planned games and food just like their characters used to do in the series.

In this episode, Phoebe finds out about her Dad who was not a famous tree surgeon in Burma like her mom had said. Right after wishing her friends Christmas Eve, she saw a photo frame in Ross’s hand and called him her dad. However, Monica told her this was a model who posed for the frame. The character then confronts her dad, a pharmacist in upstate New York alongside Joey and Chandler.

Monica and Rachel back at their apartment throw a Christmas party that takes a tropical twist when Ross breaks the radiator knob and Mr. Treeger can’t fix it until after the holiday. Though Pheobe did not get to meet her dad, the secret to this episode’s success was its top-notch plot, life realizations, and coming to terms with it.
