In the episode "The One With The Dollhouse" from season 3 of Friends, the gang faces a series of mishaps when Joey decides to build a large-scale replica of Monica's apartment in a dollhouse.
The episode opens with Chandler and Joey discussing a potential roommate, leading Chandler to quip about bad roommate experiences from the past. Meanwhile, Monica is busy preparing for a job interview and Ross is struggling to move on from his breakup with Rachel.
Joey's idea for the dollhouse is initially met with skepticism from the group, but he persists, enlisting the help of Phoebe and Rachel. As they work on the dollhouse, they discover a series of design flaws and have to improvise solutions, resulting in hilarious consequences.
Monica's interview also hits a snag, as she mistakenly thinks the interviewer is hitting on her and becomes overly flirtatious. Ross, on the other hand, decides to take up a new hobby in an attempt to move on from Rachel, but finds himself struggling to adjust to his new routine.
As the group works on the dollhouse, tensions rise when Joey becomes increasingly possessive of his creation. The situation comes to a head when Chandler accidentally breaks a piece of the dollhouse, leading Joey to lash out and threaten to evict Chandler from their apartment.
Despite the setbacks, the gang ultimately pulls together to finish the dollhouse in time for Monica's big interview. In the end, however, they are reminded that some things are just best left to the professionals.
