Ross wasn’t trying to look good or make dr green look bad and that’s what I love about it. He did it discreetly and quietly without letting Rachel or her father see. It was just from the goodness of his heart because he felt bad about the waiter not getting tipped enough
Their mannerisms were awesome, Rachel's dad was blunt & apathetic and Ross's dad was the classic Suburban dad saying the most random & awkward things 😂
@@kbanghart I've read some comment and seems like even in western country some of the lower class worker got, minimun or even lower wage. So tip is needed
Tipping is a great way to get good service. If you don't get good service you dont tip very much. If you get good service you tip a lot. Its paying based on quality of work.
I actually have to agree with him on this one. He pays 200 bucks for a fancy dinner for the three of them and Ross tries to come out as the super generous guy, I’m totally with Dr Green in this one!! By the way, in my country this tipping culture doesn’t exist
Or say "since you were so kind to pay for dinner, please let me cover the tip at least". Makes him look good, makes ross look good, waiter gets their tip, everybody happy
Yeah but that's not funny! That would definitely make the audience smile esp if he got away with it plus they needed to build more tension for the pay off later I think?
They do get paid hourly as far as I know. Tips are extra. That would be a horrible way to live, for your livelihood to depend on the generosity of customers
@@Palach303 some waiter or waitress staff get paid far less than minimum wage,therefore,the tip system. Which I think is bullshit. Pay them a decent starter wage,increase their pay on an annual basis due to their performance and the cheapness of employer and customer vanish immediately. Thats why I never took a job like that in the 1st place.
The acting by Ron is so powerful when he says "this is nice.." i often come here to watch it. Hollywood level. Not what you expect in a cookie cutter sitcom. Subtle and powerful.
After Seinfeld this was the greatest sitcom of all time and broke lot of boundaries and inspired other great shows not some generic cookie cutter show.

And as for the tip, Ross knows that service staff in the states rely on tips to make up their wages to a liveable amount, he slipped the $20 in there not to look big but because he is at heart, a decent human being.
I never understood the issue with Ross dropping the $20 as a supplement. Rachel’s father still gets the credit for the whole dinner, and the waiter doesn’t get jipped. Plus Ross gets to contribute. Everyone wins as I see it. What’s wrong with that ?
It wasn’t about the waiter, Dr. Green couldn’t care less about them (in fact he even made one cry when Rachel announced her pregnancy), it was more about him and how he sees Ross’ gesture as an insult to his financial capabilities. By tipping more, Ross basically implied he had more money than him.

He will always be memorable as Captain Esteban from "Zorro the Gay Blade" to me. Esteban: "Remember, he is cunning, he is crafty. He's not just going to walk in here and say 'Here I am!'." Zorro: "Here I Am!" Esteban: "Ahhhh! Santa Maria!"
In what part of Spain do you live? Because I live there, I am from Girona and you can tip there and I know in the rest of Catalonia you can tip too without problem.
This part always! Bugs me when I watch this episode. Cuz in my opinion it's an easy solve. I would simply say to the table "that was delicious, thank you Mr. Green. Since you paid I'll take care of the tip." Or when he says who put a 20 down? Say "oh that was me since u paid for dinner I thought I'd get the tip" We do this all the time in my family when someone else pays others will get the tip.
@juanfernandocastilla2845 I get that, that's what dr green thought ross was doing. But I really don't think that was ross' intention, since ross wanted/ was trying to get dr green to like him. & that's what my comment was about...that was my fix to the problem & why the scene kinda bothers me cuz its an easy fix. But it's a show & it happens cuz its more entertaining that way
Few things irritate me, but this tradition of tipping everything in the United States is very irritating and as a tourist you are practically pressured to do so.
Good to know it's not just me who finds it weird. I thought the idea behind the tip was to reward exemplary service. If it's mandatory then just add it to the God damn bill, or the waiters wage. If it isn't mandatory stop making a fuss when people don't tip. This middle ground we're in is so stupid.
@@hazeddon actually, the purpose of a tip is to ensure prompt service. That's always been the case. Why do people have such an issue with tipping? Are you really that stingy?
The U.S.A which is supposed to be the power capital of the world alongside China and Russia is very backwards in a lot of ways. Tipping being one of them. In Australia, service staff get paid a proper wage and you only tip if the service was above and beyond.
Rachel: Is everything ok with the waiter. Dr Green: How would I know? I was in the bathroom! I agree he doesn't have no respect for the wait staff at all.
Ya know...the fact that he had a receipt would mean that his credit card was already ran and the charge would be on there anyway. Ripping up a receipt does nothing.
I think he will have to give them the receipt back with his signature. After he ripped up the receipt ross will have to issue another receipt as the payer for the dinner.
Funny, this scene proves what I keep telling people but they don't believe me: that the expected tip % used to be lower and it keeps going up. Once upon a time 10% was a perfectly acceptable tip. Then it changed to 15%, and now people are trying to claim the minimum you should tip is 20%. Yet here even with Ross' twenty bucks the total tip would only be 14%, and that's seen as a good tip.
I disagree with tipping. Like everyone else, they get paid for the service they provide. And if it's low then the employer needs to raise their salary. Don't expect part of your salary to come from customers! The worse part is, it has turned into compulsory fee (like extra tax). Give me a break! Not fair.
Rachel's father had to understand that his daughter was a failure with no future at that point in the series. She was almost supported by Monica, she was not good at her job, she had no studies or anything to do or any plans in life. Ross on the other hand, despite his toxicity, loved her and supported her. I understand fatherly love and all that, but Rachel was not at all a first prize to come to want high standards.
Well true, but he was a rich doctor though, so he could support her if he needed to. Plus she was attractive, and that's money when it comes to work. And as we see later on she did make a success of herself.
I love friends so much because it is relatable of whats happening in real life . As in this scene Rachel's dad hates Ross,In real life also same thing happens with me ,my Girlfriend's dad hates me.
When someone pays for dinner, whether he or she tips more or less, the golden rule is, just let it be. Rich or not, it's their money. Just be thankful that they pay for dinner. If you're unsatisfied, the next occasion, offer to pay plus you can tip all you want.
Just like how we forget the years of our parents suffering for us and stupidly remember the few seconds where they needed a small little break or they would be blown up out of the pressure
in southeast asian countries tips are *so rare* . in america, it'll be offensive if you don't tip the right way, y'all already paid for hours but still depend on people tipping you.
Ron Liebman, such a great actor. Watch "Norma Rae" if you have not seen it. And Elliot Gould (Jack Geller) another awesome actor prominent in the 70's, and that I would consider a "movie star" in those days.
"Do you really serve people sneezers?" "Well, um, I don't." But didn't she later tell Joey to do the same thing when Joey started to work in the coffee house?
I tip 10% for all restaurants/cafes, but only excellent service deserves the 20-25% tips (starting with smile & greeting me, then being polite and attentive) Thats excellence for me 🤣
The tipping system in USA truly amazes me, not only it's virtually mandatory which is crazy for the rest of the world the tipping amount you are expected to tip is insanely high. 4% sounds absolutely reasonable. I wish I made as much money as a US waiter.
Ooh, joke's on Dr. Green, they can still close out the credit card receipt without the signed copy, they just can't add the 4% tip and Ross can leave a cash tip!
"I pay two hundred dollars for dinner and then you put twenty dollars down so that you can be the big shot? Okay Mr. Big Shot . . (tears check slip up and tosses it in Schwimmer's face.) You be the big shot." Love it! Too bad he didn't toss the food in his face.
You know, I've read why the tipping culture is a thing in USA. That waiter is a very low-paid job and ext. What pisses me off is that through movie and series this idea of necessary tipping spread to the countries where waiter is quite NOT the most low-paid job. Of cause, they didn't make a lot of money. But for example, in my country teachers, nurses, retirees are very frequently making fewer money. But because of these stupid tipping culture, my mom, who is and teacher and a retiree and makes something like $400 a month is expected to tip a waiter, who earns like $450-500🤯 🤯 🤯
Australia is alot more progressive than the U.S.A in a lot of ways, one being that service staff get paid a proper wage so no tipping is required. You'd only tip if the service was above and beyond.
@@notthefather3919 well service staff still have to perform well because they're still subject to complaints and bad reviews if they don't. Which could in essence put their job on the line.
@@russkate88 uhh no they don't have to perform well. They still get paid for bad service. You'd think they'd be out of a job, but that is no guarantee, is it? Not everyone complains and not every employer takes complaints seriously. Tipping encourages good service every time.
@@notthefather3919 back in 2013 when I was in London, I was at a cafe and ordered a slice of cake with some coffee. The waitress who took my order wasn't overly friendly, not that it really bothered me. But I was waiting for ages to get what I had ordered, and people who had come in after me got served before I did. So obviously that didn't sit well with me, so I alerted the waitress who had taken my order. I eventually got my order, but there was no apology or acknowledgement for their stuff up, and just like the U.S. The service staff work off tips. So as I was leaving, I paid exactly what I owed and left. I gave no tip, even though the bitch who served me was expecting one which was obvious by the way she was looking at me. So tipping doesn't always guarantee good service. I've had situations back home where my order has been overlooked and I've been given a meal on the house. So basically I've had better customer service in a country that doesn't rely on tips than in a country that does rely on tips. Might need an explanation on that one.

Esteban: "Remember, he is cunning, he is crafty. He's not just going to walk in here and say 'Here I am!'."
Zorro: "Here I Am!"
Esteban: "Ahhhh! Santa Maria!"
“The lobster here is delicious! Shall I just order three?”
“Yeah, if you’re really hungry!”
xDDDDD
1:15 look at how much he loves her
I never leave tips, here in Spain it's forbidden in most of the restaurants
Yeah, different countries, different customs
It means they are paid well in your country.
@Stella Aster good to know... But in America it seems customers are bound to tip high... Which doesn't usually happens in other countries
In what part of Spain do you live? Because I live there, I am from Girona and you can tip there and I know in the rest of Catalonia you can tip too without problem.
I love spain, the Coliseum, the Trevi Foutain, great country
lolll Rachel trying to hide her laugh after Ross's "I lost a bike to that" joke is so cute
The actor playing Dr. Green did a really good job here. The bit with the tip is pretty damn intimidating. Like... Old school intimidating.
He portrays an uptight snob with a fragile ego and it's really damn convincing. He can barely afford to smile at Ross jokes.
Thats what im saying! His mannerisms and way of speaking (like when he talked over Ross and said ‘huh?!’) reminds me of my dad a bit.
"Nothing I do means anything, really."
Story of my life...🙄
0:21 is adorable
This part always! Bugs me when I watch this episode. Cuz in my opinion it's an easy solve.
I would simply say to the table "that was delicious, thank you Mr. Green. Since you paid I'll take care of the tip." Or when he says who put a 20 down? Say "oh that was me since u paid for dinner I thought I'd get the tip"
We do this all the time in my family when someone else pays others will get the tip.
I think you didn't get the point of Dr green; he paid 200 dollars and Ross wanted to make him look like cheap
@juanfernandocastilla2845 I get that, that's what dr green thought ross was doing. But I really don't think that was ross' intention, since ross wanted/ was trying to get dr green to like him.
& that's what my comment was about...that was my fix to the problem & why the scene kinda bothers me cuz its an easy fix. But it's a show & it happens cuz its more entertaining that way
2:15 and with that piece of check stuck to his chest Ross officially became Mr.Big Shot
3 of them are amazing actors. you can feel the tension.
The Dr. Green actor does a great job of playing such despicable character
But in this scene he is right
@@juanfernandocastilla2845He isn't.
@@juanfernandocastilla2845 No he's not
He had a great logic in what he said!!
Ross and Rachel were so sweet at the beginning of their relationship😍 dr. Green is acting like a child
Few things irritate me, but this tradition of tipping everything in the United States is very irritating and as a tourist you are practically pressured to do so.
Good to know it's not just me who finds it weird. I thought the idea behind the tip was to reward exemplary service. If it's mandatory then just add it to the God damn bill, or the waiters wage. If it isn't mandatory stop making a fuss when people don't tip. This middle ground we're in is so stupid.
@@hazeddon actually, the purpose of a tip is to ensure prompt service. That's always been the case. Why do people have such an issue with tipping? Are you really that stingy?
@@kyleroberts8823 "to ensure prompt service"?? But you tip at the end, not at the start.
And no, that is definitely NOT the case.
The U.S.A which is supposed to be the power capital of the world alongside China and Russia is very backwards in a lot of ways. Tipping being one of them. In Australia, service staff get paid a proper wage and you only tip if the service was above and beyond.
@@MicukoFelton yea, after you get the service.
Rachel's dad's name is Leonard; Jack is Ross's dad. :)
Your point is
@@alexwallar8608 The title WAS wrong before it got fixed
ok?
@@alexwallar8608 you must feel so useless after that response
Tipping is a voluntary concept. If waiters have a small salary, it is their problem, which should not be solved by customers.
Rachel's dad has no respect for wait staff. Look at how he treated the waiter when Rachel was there to tell him she was pregnant.
Rachel: Is everything ok with the waiter.
Dr Green: How would I know? I was in the bathroom!
I agree he doesn't have no respect for the wait staff at all.
You could feel the gut wrenching tenseness
Ya know...the fact that he had a receipt would mean that his credit card was already ran and the charge would be on there anyway. Ripping up a receipt does nothing.
I think he will have to give them the receipt back with his signature. After he ripped up the receipt ross will have to issue another receipt as the payer for the dinner.
not true it does ont go throw untill he sign it so they have to cancle and have ross pay.
'Nothing I do means anything'. Classic.
Funny, this scene proves what I keep telling people but they don't believe me: that the expected tip % used to be lower and it keeps going up. Once upon a time 10% was a perfectly acceptable tip. Then it changed to 15%, and now people are trying to claim the minimum you should tip is 20%. Yet here even with Ross' twenty bucks the total tip would only be 14%, and that's seen as a good tip.
Well, Ross didn’t have so much time.
Yes, the percentage has gone up.
And now we have every fast food restaurant or type of store imaginable expecting tips for any type of service .
Dr green must be called Dr Grinch 😅
Dr. Green was very good actor
I disagree with tipping. Like everyone else, they get paid for the service they provide. And if it's low then the employer needs to raise their salary. Don't expect part of your salary to come from customers! The worse part is, it has turned into compulsory fee (like extra tax). Give me a break! Not fair.
Thanks Doctor Greene... Without you I might never have known about Chateau Latour and Chateau Lafite
Rachel is so well bahaved in front of her dad!
That's because she is afraid of him
I love Rachel outfit including the white coat. She looks beautiful 💖
Rachel's father had to understand that his daughter was a failure with no future at that point in the series. She was almost supported by Monica, she was not good at her job, she had no studies or anything to do or any plans in life. Ross on the other hand, despite his toxicity, loved her and supported her. I understand fatherly love and all that, but Rachel was not at all a first prize to come to want high standards.
Well true, but he was a rich doctor though, so he could support her if he needed to. Plus she was attractive, and that's money when it comes to work. And as we see later on she did make a success of herself.
“And causes the, the ... night blindness” 1:29
What an amazing actor!
I love friends so much because it is relatable of whats happening in real life . As in this scene Rachel's dad hates Ross,In real life also same thing happens with me ,my Girlfriend's dad hates me.
Why tho?
@@Fandy_T26 who cares
I never understood the tip culture and I could never. I will fight to increase the salary of the waiter but tipping is something I don't understand.
Geez Ross you got the girl & a free dinner. Take the win

All cuz of the shamdemic!
I'm with Dr.Green on this one.
Im not
I am with you.
Yess
Yeah, if Ross was so upset he should have paid half +tip. Can't just pay 20 and oh look at me I tip, in my opinion.
becouse they all ready put in in his credit card, ross ended up paying for the whole thing. and did not complain.
Love Ross. True gentleman. Still so respectful to the father as he should be. My trashy ex would have punched him.
Answer me this: why do women get involved with trashy guys? As a woman myself I've just never understood that phenomenon...
Tipping is the service industry’s excuse for not paying their staff a better wage.
When someone pays for dinner, whether he or she tips more or less, the golden rule is, just let it be. Rich or not, it's their money. Just be thankful that they pay for dinner. If you're unsatisfied, the next occasion, offer to pay plus you can tip all you want.
True.
Nah, I would have done what Ross did. It's the right thing to do.
@@pb4ugo19 Yeah I mean it's Ross' own money, let him do what he wants with it.
that not what you do, if you dont tip you just cheap. if he want to add extra to a tip that fine.
Intense conversation 😂
USA should ban tips.... It's the responsibility of the employer to pay their employees not the customers
Some restaurants take the tips of their serving staff
Waiters don't get a salary in US ?
@@stutipathak4602 their hourly rate is like $2 an hour.
They live off of tips because their employer is too cheap to pay them a liveable wage.
@Viscoselight23 That's a weird system. I have seen waiters and workers rooting for tips in various videos, couldn't understand what it was. Thanks.
@@stutipathak4602 Yeah, the whole waiter/tip system in the U.S is beyond broken.
I just love Rachel's outfit here 😍😍
Rachel season 1-3 🔥🔥
😍😍😍😍
Just like how we forget the years of our parents suffering for us and stupidly remember the few seconds where they needed a small little break or they would be blown up out of the pressure
I always hated Rachel’s dad. I hated the way he treated Ross.
Me I hate the way he treated everyone. It's such a rude man.
He did well for what he has signed
Lol He hated everyone equally… Hahahaa I loved him… he scared the shit outta me… poor Ross got it the worse though… 🤣
Thanks for the tip. 💚
in southeast asian countries tips are *so rare* . in america, it'll be offensive if you don't tip the right way, y'all already paid for hours but still depend on people tipping you.
It's a broken system.
Employers are cheap and most waiters get paid like $2 an hour so they pretty much live off tips.
Ron Liebman, such a great actor. Watch "Norma Rae" if you have not seen it.
And Elliot Gould (Jack Geller) another awesome actor prominent in the 70's, and that I would consider a "movie star" in those days.
A classic dialogue from Rachel's papa. Very true.
I always loved "Dr. Green"
I completely agree with Rachel's dad on this one: he spent $200 dollars, and still came out looking like the bad guy
For all the waiters knew, it was Rachels dad who put the 20 down there

"Do you really serve people sneezers?" "Well, um, I don't." But didn't she later tell Joey to do the same thing when Joey started to work in the coffee house?

I tip 10% for all restaurants/cafes, but only excellent service deserves the 20-25% tips (starting with smile & greeting me, then being polite and attentive) Thats excellence for me 🤣
My grandmother didn’t tip when she invited to lunch... I always left the tip.
The tipping system in USA truly amazes me, not only it's virtually mandatory which is crazy for the rest of the world the tipping amount you are expected to tip is insanely high. 4% sounds absolutely reasonable. I wish I made as much money as a US waiter.
Ooh, joke's on Dr. Green, they can still close out the credit card receipt without the signed copy, they just can't add the 4% tip and Ross can leave a cash tip!

@@travellingdayak7500 nah, let's kick his ass.
You know, I've read why the tipping culture is a thing in USA. That waiter is a very low-paid job and ext. What pisses me off is that through movie and series this idea of necessary tipping spread to the countries where waiter is quite NOT the most low-paid job. Of cause, they didn't make a lot of money. But for example, in my country teachers, nurses, retirees are very frequently making fewer money. But because of these stupid tipping culture, my mom, who is and teacher and a retiree and makes something like $400 a month is expected to tip a waiter, who earns like $450-500🤯 🤯 🤯
Gosh I'm so glad I don't have to deal with people like this
I'd be pissed if someone ripped up a $20 bill in front of me
Australia is alot more progressive than the U.S.A in a lot of ways, one being that service staff get paid a proper wage so no tipping is required. You'd only tip if the service was above and beyond.
Progressive? So you pay more for food and the service staff get compensated, regardless of how well they perform their jobs?
Yea, progress.
@@notthefather3919 well service staff still have to perform well because they're still subject to complaints and bad reviews if they don't. Which could in essence put their job on the line.
@@russkate88 uhh no they don't have to perform well. They still get paid for bad service. You'd think they'd be out of a job, but that is no guarantee, is it? Not everyone complains and not every employer takes complaints seriously.
Tipping encourages good service every time.
@@notthefather3919 back in 2013 when I was in London, I was at a cafe and ordered a slice of cake with some coffee. The waitress who took my order wasn't overly friendly, not that it really bothered me. But I was waiting for ages to get what I had ordered, and people who had come in after me got served before I did. So obviously that didn't sit well with me, so I alerted the waitress who had taken my order. I eventually got my order, but there was no apology or acknowledgement for their stuff up, and just like the U.S. The service staff work off tips. So as I was leaving, I paid exactly what I owed and left. I gave no tip, even though the bitch who served me was expecting one which was obvious by the way she was looking at me. So tipping doesn't always guarantee good service.
I've had situations back home where my order has been overlooked and I've been given a meal on the house.
So basically I've had better customer service in a country that doesn't rely on tips than in a country that does rely on tips.
Might need an explanation on that one.
