It is nice to compliment someone on their pies.
Rachel and Monica are competing against each other for the blue ribbon in the county fair pie contest.
Rachel wants the notoriety that winning the contest will give her so that she can open her own bakery.
Rachel tells Monica that she likes the way her pie looks and asks if she has any tips to make better pies.
Rachel tells Monica that her pie isn't good enough to win a prize and that she shouldn't enter it in the contest.
Not only does Rachel win the contest due to Monica's tips, but they both team up and open a successful bakery together.
Monica pulls her pie out of the contest and goes home crying.
