Janine is going to be a party person in a New Year's Eve TV broadcast (Dick Clark's New Year's Rocking Eve) and asks Joey, Monica and Ross to come along for the taping. Monica and Ross love that show and have been watching it since they were kids. The Dick Clark part is live, but some of the party stuff is taped ahead of time. Joey thinks Janine has invited him for a date, but the others are not so sure. Joey intends to kiss Janine at the fake midnight to find out.
Rachel, Phoebe look for the gifts Monica got for them while the others are at the taping. Rachel argues that she wants to find out if she got an appropriate gift for Monica. When Chandler objects, he says he got a great gift for Monica and Rachel again argues that maybe Monica got him a great gift, a medium gift and a bunch of little gifts. In that case, only 1 great gift from Chandler would make her feel bad. Chandler joins the search. The ladies indicate that they have search Chandler and Joey's apartment as well and have found Chandler's porn collection at the back of his closet under the gym bag. Later, the ladies find Chandler's gifts, which he had hidden in the guest bedroom. They also found his porn collection again. Eventually, Rachel finds that the bench near the window is hollow and that's where Monica had hidden the presents. But Chandler tells the ladies not to open them as he doesn't want to ruin the hard work that Monica put into it. The ladies agree if Chandler agrees to get them better gifts. But then Monica walks in, and reveals that she got Chandler a water purifier.
Monica and Ross really want to be on TV (but the cameraman keeps passing them by) but they would have to dance on the platform which only the selected people can. They put on the "routine" - a dance they did in primary school - for the selection guy and they get to dance on the platform. The show director puts them on the platform, but tells the cameraman to get their footage for the bloopers show.
Meanwhile Joey is getting positive signals from Janine, who continues to dance with him. But then the show's director changes their dance partners and Janine is paired up with a tall guy. Joey catches up with the tall guy in the bathroom (who is married) and tells him that he is hoping to kiss Janine at the new year countdown, but the tall guy refuses to back off since Joey and Janine are not dating. So, Joey purposefully spill water over the tall guy's pants and runs out of the bathroom.
Joey wanted to kiss Janine on the fake midnight. The show director calls for the New year countdown, but it stops just before it gets to "Happy New Year".. Joey is really disappointed and Janine can see that.. When they get back home Janine kisses Joey. They decide to be a couple. Back at home Ross dares Monica to do the routine the way they used do it in 8th grade (with Monica catching Ross). Ross jumps at her in the routing, but she moves at the last second (saying she cant do it), sending Ross crashing..
