xciii The dialogue takes place in Rachel’s house. Rachel has just come
back home after going away for business matter and an attempt to have an affair. While she is not succeeding with her affair, arriving at home, she
finds her husband is having an affair successfully with another woman. Knowing that his wife has just come back and caught him sleeping with
the other woman, instead of asking apology, Barry asks why Rachel comes back so early. That, for sure, makes Rachel so angry and annoyed that asks
him to continue sleeping with that woman then she leaves away. From the situation, it can be seen that Barry’s statement violates the maxim of
quantity, manner, and relation. His statement makes him do the blunder. He has something wrong but instead of repairing his mistake, he makes
another blunder. He only observes the maxim of quality. However, this cannot recover his mistake.
3.3 CHAIN Data05Chain
The dialogue happens in Central Perk when all the characters talk about their past. It comes out when Phoebe tells about her past massage
client who suggested her to work at Merrill Lynch as a stockholder. However, she does not take the job. When Rachel asks her why she does
not take the job, she answers that she thinks everything that rhymed is true. She thinks that if she would work with stocks, she would have to live
in a box, and only eat lox, and have a pet fox. Here, it is seen that her
xciv answer observes the maxim of quality because she has been truthful by
saying the reason why she does not take the job. However, she seems to give more information than it requires that flouts the maxim of quantity.
Her obscure and prolix information fails to observe the maxim of manner. Further, she says something that is irrelevant with the job as a stockholder.
This does not fit with the maxim of relation. In summary, when Phoebe says her statement, which is categorized as a Chain, it flouts the maxims of
relation, quantity, and manner. Meanwhile, the maxim of quality is observed by her since she does not intend to lie to express her feeling
about that job.
2.4. FREUDIAN SLIP Data18Freudian Slip
The conversation happens in the Silver Cups studio. The participants of this dialog are Joey, Rachel, and Chandler. At that time,
Chandler is Joey’s assistant. As an assistant Chandler has to do all the things Joey asks him to do. Here, when Joey is with Rachel to do an
approach to get her heart, he asks Candler to take a glass of juice for him. Yet, Chandler does not get him the exact juice Joey wants, that makes
Joey somewhat annoyed and asks him to get another drink. This makes Chandler annoyed as well. Chandler thinks that a star assistant should not
do such work. He agrees to work with Joey as his assistant because Joey will only ask him to answer his fans’ mail. However, Joey seems to forget
this point. Instead of asking Chandler to write, Joey orders him to do some
xcv servant’s work. To make matter worse he asks Chandler to get a drink for
Rachel as well and that is done improperly. This makes Chandler feel very disturbed and acts as though he wants to throw the juice to Joey. Noticing
this, Joey says that he must want to throw the juice to him. To show his annoyance, Chandler says, “It’s not all juice”, for the answer that makes
Joey and Rachel step backward. Candler has been truthful about his feeling to show that he is annoyed with Joey and that fits with the quality
maxim. However, he flouts the maxim of quantity to imply that if he wants to throw the juice, it is not all juice, but he does not say whether he wants
to throw the juice or not. Chandler’s statement is also obscure that flouts the first maxim of manner. It flouts the maxim of relation as well because
it does not address Joey’s aim in asking the question. The suppression, which is accepted by Chandler, makes him state his deep disturbance
feeling. It is categorized as the Freudian Slip. When he utters it, the maxims of quantity, relation, and manner are flouted by him. By doing
that, he wants to imply that actually he does not like Joey’s act toward him. Meanwhile, the maxim of quality is followed by him since he does
not lie about his feeling.
