Then Pheobe says that they should do secret santa since Monica and herself don't have a lot of money. They all agree to do that.

Pheobe tells Chandler that Rachel exchanges everything she gets, so Chandler decides to just give the briefcase to Ross because his initails are "RG" too. Then Monica gets ice in her eye, but she doesn't want to go to her eye docter because it's Richard. Pheobe calls anyway and Richard is out of town and there is an on-call docter.
