Rachel: Oh... [opens it]... [sees the brooch] Oh my God. He remembered.
Phoebe: Remembered what?
Rachel: It was like months ago. We were walking by this antique store, and I saw this pin in the window, and I told him it was just like one my grandmother had when I was a little girl. Oh! I can't believe he remembered!
Chandler: Well, sure, but can you play it on a plane? [pats his Travel Scrabble game]
Phoebe: Oh, it's so pretty. This must have cost him a fortune.
Monica: I can't believe he did this.
Chandler: Come on, Ross? Remember back in college, when he fell in love with Carol and bought her that ridiculously expensive crystal duck?
Now that you've seen what has been said, let's explain. Phoebe had commented that it must have cost him a fortune to buy the precious brooch for Rachel right? And Monica couldn't believe that he would do that either. In Ross' defense, Chandler retorted to them that it wasn't a big deal because he did the same thing when he was IN LOVE WITH CAROL. The line in bold practically told Rachel that Ross was in love with her. What Chandler was trying to prove was that what he had gotten for Rachel wasn't a big deal because he was in love with her, but everyone else with the exception of Joey didn't know that. So to them two, it didn't seem like a big deal since they knew he loved her. But thinking that your friend gets you a ridiculously expensive piece of jewelry, that's something you can't really fit together, because it doesn't make sense of why he and or she would do that.
But the point Chandler was trying to make was that it wasn't a big deal--in the process it revealed Ross' love for Rachel. Did that make sense? If not, send a personal message so I can break things down a bit more. :)
