Joey (Tv set Serial) and later

In the first episode of Joey, Joey Tribbianni says "I was happy in New York and I tried to keep everything the aforementioned just things kept changing. All of my friends got married and had kids and moved on." At another point subsequently in the series, Joey says to Alex "I've only said I love yous to one woman and she was significant with my best friend'southward baby and they ended upward together".

Some people choose to believe that the higher up lines imply that Ross and Rachel remarried one another, others bespeak out that considering their history and patterns this would be unlikely. In fact, Joey'due south statements are vague and can be interpreted in unlike ways:

• Ross and Rachel may have indeed stayed together for a long fourth dimension later the series finale, and fifty-fifty remarried at some bespeak. Some of the crew take stated they believed so. In "The Last 1, Part ii" both Rachel and Ross stated that "this was it", and they wanted to make it work. It is possible that Joey's line "got married" referred to Ross and Rachel marrying each other, and "ended up together" referred to the point in time when Joey talked, a few months after "The Terminal One", rather than the day depicted in the last episode of the prove. Unlike all previous times when Ross and Rachel got dorsum together and broke shortly after, this fourth dimension they are older, more than mature and even have a child together. All this could, and should, encourage them to try harder than before.
• Information technology is possible that Joey'south line "got married" refers to Chandler, Monica and Phoebe, or he may have referred to Ross and Rachel'due south drunken hymeneals in Las Vegas. "Ended upwardly together" may have referred to the day depicted in "The Concluding I, Part 2". The lack of understanding, the lack of respect, the lack of advice, and the lack of trust between Ross and Rachel, and the breaking up before long subsequently they go together, are patterns which echo throughout the terminal seven years of the show, and could possibly continue to echo after "The Last One".
  • Since Joey never clearly says "Rachel remarried Ross" (or vice versa), both Ross and Rachel may have married unlike people -- such a situation has already happened earlier in season four and five, when Ross fell in love with Emily Waltham and married her, and at the same time Rachel proposed to Joshua Burgin and would have married him if he didn't freak out.

The lack of a reference -- both reliable and in-universe -- Rachel and Ross marrying each other after "The Last Ane, Part 2" or fifty-fifty staying together afterward the last scene, often crusade speculations and disagreements among fans almost what might have happened later the last episode. Until there are official episodes of a Friends continuation, this question cannot exist answered.
