5. Having Her Brother's Children

Despite being widely agreed to be one of the weirder plot on the show, this is a reasonably grounded and feasible story-line compared to others. Phoebe is asked to be a surrogate for her half brother and his wife when they are unable to have children.

Early on in Phoebe and her newly found half brother, Frank Jr.'s, relationship he reveals to her he has met someone. This amazing woman turns out to be his 44 year old home economics teacher Alice. Phoebe is originally against their engagement due to there being an age gap of 26 years between the two. Eventually the gang see past the age difference and support the two lovebirds, in Phoebe's case this means becoming their surrogate.

It is revealed that she is not only carrying one child but triplets, this adds another layer of weird to the situation when Phoebe asks if she can keep one. Frank Jr. and Alice understandably say no but allow her to name one of the children. She chooses the name Chandler and despite the baby being a girl the name is kept.

In context of the show this made sense but it is still one of the more out-there moments from Phoebe.
