Valentine's Day Countdown...continued

So here is my next romantical choice. I realize that this would be a lot easier and more fun if I could just embed videos into my blog, but dagnabbit, I just don't have those kinds of science fictioney skills. Do I look like Scotty to you? I just canna do it captain! Excuse me for a moment, I need to yell at those kids to get off my lawn...Ahem, okay I'm back. So the best I can do is put up a link to YouTube and hope to God your not too lazy to follow it and see the loveliness for yourselves. With that being said, next up:

#9 Chandler Proposes to Monica on Friends

It starts with the hijinks that Chandler gets up to so that Monica will be surprised when he proposes. So with his Einsteinian brain power, he decides it would be a good idea to make her think that he never wants to get married or as he says he is not likely to ever take a wife. This blows up in his face of course and he thinks that he has lost her, especially after Joey tell him that he saw Monica with a bag leaving to stay with her parents.

Here's the dialogue to that scene...

Chandler: I can't believe I ruined this.
Joey: I am so sorry man. (Chandler walks dejectedly into his apartment to find it lit with about a thousand candles and Monica standing in the living room.)
Monica: You wanted it to be a surprise. (He turns to look at Joey who smiles slyly and closes the door leaving them alone.)
Chandler: Oh my God. (Monica gets down on one knee.)
Monica: Chandler, In all my life I never thought I would be so lucky. (Starting to cry.) As to fall in love with my best... my best...There's a reason why girls don't do this! (crying uncontrollably)
Chandler: Okay! (He joins her on his knees and holds her hands) Okay! Okay! I'll do it! Oh God, I thought (Starting to cry, pauses) Wait a minute, I-I can do this. (Pause) I thought that it mattered what I said or where I said it. Then I realized the only thing that matters is that you, (Pause) you make me happier than I ever thought I could be. (Starting to cry again.) And if you'll let me, I will spend the rest of my life trying to make you feel the same way. (Pause as he gets out the ring.) Monica, will you marry me?
Monica: Yes. (He puts the ring on her finger. They hug and kiss both crying.)
Monica: I knew you were likely to take a wife! (They hug again and welcome in their friends to celebrate the joyous occasion.)

The episode ends with them dancing to Eric Clapton amongst the candles as the credits roll. It is so sweet and just beyond lovely. They were always my favorite couple on the show and the course of their relationship from friends, to casual lovers, to a serious couple, to husband and wife, to a family was never dull to watch. They just seemed so right for each other, a perfect compliment and a perfect proposal.
