We prerecorded what I said, and I had to react.”<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2kcYPp_0wPtbUuI00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2kcYPp_0wPtbUuI00" width="1200" height="712" ><figcaption>Perry barely said a word during the episode (Image: NBC/Friends screengrab)</figcaption></figure>Chandler tried to impress Jill in various ways during the episode, including one scene where he tries to blow a bubble with gum she gives him, before spitting it out accidentally onto a table.He then picks up a different piece of used gum on the table and starts to chew it.Chandler then realizes it is someone else's gum and chokes on it from the shock, before Jill is forced to give him the Heimlich maneuver and saves his life.The actor said Jill made it easy for him to seem stupefied, saying: “Let’s face it: Jill Goodacre is hot, so it wasn’t that difficult.“I [remember] spitting my gum out, and it stuck to the wall. It was my choice to just stay frozen in fear and embarrassment.”Perry also said watching his co-stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer made him realize the show had something special.DON'T MISS...Matthew Perry's assistant 'repeatedly' injected him with ketamine on day of death say feds [DETAILS]Matthew Perry's Friends co-stars vow to find Hollywood dealer who sold him drug [NEWS]Matthew Perry leaves over $1m to trust named after controversial Hollywood icon [LATEST]<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0u3s1q_0wPtbUuI00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0u3s1q_0wPtbUuI00" width="1200" height="712" ><figcaption>Perry and his Friends co-stars (Image: Getty)</figcaption></figure>He said: “What was great about that night was that I was also able to watch the other three quarters of the show, which was these five great actors doing ensemble work that was amazing.
