Great sequence (from memory):

(Chandler has just had a confrontation with Janice and is angrily hurling darts at the wall when Joey comes in)

Joey: You know how we save all those chopsticks whenever we have Chinese food, for no reason?

Chandler: Mm-hm?

Joey (triumphantly): Well now we have a reason!

(Joey gets out a huge pile of chopsticks)

Joey: We're going to poke a naked guy!

Chandler: Mm-hm.

Joey: Say man, what's happened?

Chandler: I talked to Janice. She's still in love with him. And me.

Joey: So what are you going to do?

Chandler (really swinging back and hurling darts into the dartboard): I don't know. What would you do?

Joey (nervously watching him throw the darts): Me? I would - and this is just me, you understand, not you, it's just -

Chandler: Yeah?

Joey: I'd back out.

Chandler: WHAT?!

(He spins around as he's about to hurl another dart - Joey throws himself to the floor).
