Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis episode does not feature any of the three main characters, played by Matthew Perry, Amanda Peet and Bradley Whitford. This due to all three actors agreeing to a cut in their episodes to save the show some money, and it was deemed easiest to write them all out at the same time. Interestingly, both Perry's and Whitford's characters are referenced, while Peet's isn't.

Featured review
One of the better episodes of the series.
Apparently they wrote out the main cast to save a few dollars but this is good evidence the supporting cast can carry a show all by themselves. The characters are stuck in a bad spot after losing some of their union crew members and have to scramble to make the episode work. Not only are all the performances good but its a nice showcase of some of the lesser used characters. It has some funny moments but never quite as emotional or complex as most other episodes of the series.
If you only tune it to watch Matthew Perry, Amanda Peet, and Bradley Whitford you are missing out on a bunch of other good actors and this episode could bring you around.
