Thanks to: friendscafe.org for the video file, and Vanessa for pointing it out to me.
Some flashback parts taken from the transcripts by Eric Aasen.
Transcribers note: At some times during this interview, everybody talks at the same time and voices in the background become inaudible. Also because of that, some dialogue might not be what is actually said, but is extrapolated by me, in a way, that I hope makes sense.
[Part 2 opens with the clip of Rachel and Joey kissing in Barbados]
Oprah: We're in Hollywood on the actual set of the hit show Friends. And it's the final season and all of the stars we have come to learn and love are giving their first farewell interview. I wanna ask, who do you, Jennifer, who do you most want Rachel to end up with?
Jennifer: Ah... I'll start crying...
Oprah: Come on...
Jennifer: Well, I mean God... That's a tough... Well, I think if you go back to the beginning, you know, I think everybody's had a special place for Ross and Rachel... (there's cheering)
Oprah: Hm-mmm, hm-mmm... Everybody... (to David) Are you getting a little misty over this?
David: Just when we think about the episode where they first kiss, and all the... there's so much history between... between the two...
Jennifer: So much history...
[We see a clip from 207, The One Where Ross Finds Out, where they kiss in Central Perk.]
Oprah: Do you have your favourite Friends moment?
David: I'm sure we all have moments that we love. But in the gag reel there was one thing where Le Blanc kept running in and tripping and we had to do take after take after take and we finally got it right and Matt Perry came in and tripped.
[We see that scene which was in the special with Conan O'Brien. (The One With The Stuff You've Never Seen)]
David: I mean, those are moments that not necessarily the... make it to the show...
Matt: So your favourite moment is when I fall down?
Oprah: Okay, let's go to your favourite Friends moments. We all have ours. I think the birth of Emma. (to Jennifer) How was that for you?
Jennifer: Oh, I loved that moment. That whole season, I think I loved. Uhm, as the first kiss with Ross and Rachel I loved.
Oprah: First kiss with Ross and Rachel? (David nods also) I like the way you refer to them as "Ross and Rachel".
Courteney: Uhm, well I mean, the favourite one for me to play or be a part of was when I asked Chandler (pointing to Matt) to marry me.
[We see the clip from 624, The One With The Proposal, where Monica proposes to Chandler in a candlelit room:
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!]
Oprah: Matthew?
Matthew: I agree with Courteney. That scene where we decided to get married is... up there for me.
Oprah: Up there for you?
Matthew: Yeah.
Oprah: Lisa?
Lisa: For me personally my favourite was uhm, the scene with Crissie Hynde. I lo-oved that scene. That was fun.
[We see a clip from 206, The One With The Baby On The Bus, where Phoebe teaches Stephanie how to play "Smelly Cat".]
Matt: Me next?
Oprah: Yes.
Matt: I don't know if my favourite Friends moment is on camera. I would have to say maybe the huddle backstage. I think its, you know what I mean, it's stuff between the scenes for me that's really, really great. You know, these are five awesome people.
Oprah: And what do you think you're gonna miss, 'cause you're gonna go on. Joey's gonna go on. Joey's gonna have his own series, right?
Matt: Hopefully yeah.
Oprah: So, will you think... will it be as bittersweet for you, or will you already thinking about moving on, and how to create the next thing?
Matt: It feels very strange to really think about that in a, kind of a gung-ho way without closure here, you know. So I really want to enjoy the closing of this, before I really go on. Without having closure here, it doesn't feel right. It would feel like kind of betraying... It's like I feel afraid, you know, it's like... you guys are coming right? I had a funny pitch for the title, I wanted to call it "Where the hell is everybody?"
Oprah: I like that title.
Matt: It didn't fly...
Matthew: They didn't go for that one, did they?
Oprah: So, none of the characters that we've come to know through Friends are gonna like even pass through Joey or know Joey?
Matt: I would love it, yeah sure. Maybe you can help me talk them into it.
Oprah: Come by every now and then...? Okay Jen, can you tell us about each of your cast mates?
Jennifer: Oh... Hi Matty...
Matthew: Hi honey.
Jennifer: Well, what people may not know about Matthew Perry, is that he's probably one of the most sensitive people. You know, as long as well as being funny... and ingenious, he's also uhm...
Oprah: He's ingenious too?
Jennifer: And ingenious, yeah. He's very smart. He played tennis. I think you speak French.
Matthew: Un peu. (translated: a bit)
Jennifer: Oh, un peu. Uhm, and he's a... he's a really strong... you know... supportive dear friend. And uhm, Courteney, I just love you so much you just been there for me in a lot of ways, and she really is the most dependable and loyal and funny as all get out, I mean, she just cracks me up, constantly. Schimmy Schwimster is uhm... We have a lot of history. Uhm, he's uhm... he's alright. No again, really smart and helps me figure out things that I don't understand. But he's really... I can be really honest with David and speak my mind and I really appreciate you and... (she almost cries) Oh God, get somebody else.
Oprah: No, you're almost done. You're almost done. You're okay.
Jennifer: Yeah?
Oprah: You're okay.
Jennifer: Seriously?
Oprah: Yeah. Okay, no really. Okay, want to take a minute? Okay.
Matthew: What do you think of all of us Oprah?
Oprah: I like you so much, it's gonna be bittersweet. I don't know. I don't know, what is NBC gonna do? I'm thinking: okay, what are they gonna do with that timeslot. It's gonna feel a little empty.
Lisa: J-J-J-J-Joey
Matt: J-J-J-J-Joey!
Oprah: Same timespot? Same timeslot.
Matt: Hm-mmm.
Oprah: Okay.
Matt: Depending how it goes today... (crosses his fingers and holds them up)
Oprah: Okay, I appreciate that you feel this deeply about each other. I really do.
Jennifer: (very emotional) And now we [haven't] gotten to those two yet (points to Lisa and Matt)
Oprah: I know. I know. I'm waiting...
Jennifer: Oh no, I don't know if I can do it yet. Let's go on to someone else.
Oprah: Take a break. Deep breaths. Isn't this endearing?
Jennifer: It's corny.
Oprah: No, really I do, I'm very moved by it. (to Jennifer) Alright, can you finish now?
Jennifer: Yes, I can. Uhm... Dearest Lisa Kudrow, who is also one of the most talented actresses and I've learned so much from you as a comedian, unbelievable, but a dramatic actress that knocks your socks off. And just basically being one of the most loving and (looking at Courteney) with these girls what we've got, what we've gained from each other and taught each other and watched each other get married and just lived through so much and so unconditional, you know. And I... I thinks she's an amazing. I love you. (Lisa pouts her lips and kisses her through the air to the other side of the room) And Matt Le Blanc is just, you know, the best big brother. Young big brother, you are older than me. Just a little bit. You know, I feel so protected by Matty and he's... talk about somebody who can read me a mile... (to audience) I know I seem obvious, but uhm...
Matt: She's actually very happy right now. You're not crying like a ...
Jennifer: I see him staring at me giving me this look, and then he just walks over to me and he says "Come here, sit down, talk to me, what's going on?" And he just gets you to lose it... if there's something to lose... Or figures something out, and he's just amazing, and one of the most loving, dearest, loving, funny and inspiring. I love him.
Matt: Looking back at you.
Oprah: I can tell you... Can you tell right now, this is gonna be a rough week. The last week is gonna be very tough here.
[We see previews of what's to come:
Oprah's voice: Later...
Matthew: I wanna show you how romantic our bedroom is...
Oprah's voice: The cast of Friends take me on a behind-the-scenes tour...
Oprah: What do you think you guys are gonna take from the set?
Oprah's voice: and next... The true story about their multi-million dollar salary negotiations. Stay tuned.]
