s01e01 Ross: Talk about your.. big lizards

  What big lizards does Ross talk about? Rachel visibly gets upset when Ross reminds her about Aruba honeymoon she has to pass on. Ross panics and offers the first reason to hate Aruba, that comes to his mind: Ross :  Although, Aruba. This time of year? Talk about your... big lizards...  What big lizards does Ross talk about? Is fall a big lizard season in Aruba? And why does Rachel look so puzzled at the end of Ross’s rumbling?

s01e01 Rachel: I was looking at this really gorgeous Limoges gravy boat.

Why is Limoges gravy boat that exciting to Rachel? It is the very beginning of the show. The scene is about introduction of Rachel as a character. Rachel runs into Central Perk in a wedding dress and bumps into Monica and her friends. Now when she has ordered her coffee, she starts to tell her run-away-from-the-wedding story. Rachel: " I was in the room with all the presents.. and I was looking at this really gorgeous Limoges gravy boat." What sort of gravy boat is Limoges gravy boat? Why writers would choose for Rachel to start the story from some Limoges gravy boat?

s01e01 Ross: A-wandering?

Is A-Wondering any different from just Wondering ? Paul the wine guy has finally asked Monica out and now is on her doorstep. All of Monica's friends are in the apartment too though and they will not fail to have some fun at her expense. This friendly mockery overloads Monica's nervous system, who is already desperately trying to keep her excitement in check. Monica:   I'll be right back. I've just gotta go... (looking for word) Ross:  A-wandering? What is this “a-wandering”? How is it different from just “wandering”? And what does Ross’s joke tell us about Monica?
