Describing his close bond with the Friends cast members, Perry, who played Chandler Bing on the iconic sitcom, said, “The best way I can describe it is after the show was over, at a party or any other social gathering, if one of us bumped into each other, that was it, that was the end of the night,” adding, “We just sat with the person all night long.” “And that was it. You apologized to the people that you were with, but they had to understand you had met somebody special to you, and you were going to talk to that person for the rest of the night,” he added. After Perry's heart-touching words, Cox acknowledged saying, “This is so true.”

The late Friends star then said, “And that's the way it worked. It's certainly the way it worked with all of us. It's just the way it is.” Kudrow then proceeded to hand him a tissue as he said, “I'm gonna cry now.” This moment from the video has touched the hearts of Friends fans, who are mourning Perry's untimely death. A fan expressed, “Friends is my favorite show. I watch it every night before bed. I can watch it over and over and still laugh. I’m so sad to hear the passing of Matthew Perry. My condolences to his family and friends. May God bless his soul.” Another wrote, “Same here. When people call me and I tell them I’m watching friends. They know I’m going to bed soon.”
