Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) may have gotten all the attention, but the truth is Friends’ greatest love story was that of Monica (Courteney Cox) and Chandler (Matthew Perry), and it all started on Thanksgiving in 1987.

　　罗斯（戴维·修蒙饰）和瑞秋（詹妮弗·安妮斯顿饰）也许是众人关注的焦点，但是事实是，《老友记》里最伟大的爱情故事取自莫妮卡（柯特妮·考克斯饰）和钱德勒（马修·派瑞饰）。一切要从1987年的感恩节说起。

　　But they still had some issues to overcome on Thanksgiving 1999, when Chandler found out that even though they lived together…

　　但是他们1999年的感恩节仍有一些问题需要克服，就是当钱德勒发现虽然他们住在一起了……
