what's the meaning of "smoke away" " I haven't worked" [Scene: Chandler and Joey's, Chandler is helping Joey rehearse for a part.] Chandler: "So how does it feel knowing you're about to die?" Joey: "Warden , in five minutes my pain will be over. But you'll have to live with the knowledge that you sent an honest man to die." Chandler: Hey, that was really good! Joey: Thanks! Let's keep going. Chandler: Okay. "So. Whaddya want from me, Damone, huh?" Joey: "I just wanna go back to my cell. 'Cause in my cell, I can smoke." Chandler: "SMOKE AWAY." (Joey takes out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. He fumbles and drops the lighter. Then he lights a cigarette, takes a drag, and coughs.) (The gang swaps all the drinks for what they ordered as Phoebe enters. She sits down without saying hi.) Joey: Y'okay, Phoebe? Phoebe: Yeah- no- I'm just- it's, I HAVEN'T WORKED- It's my bank. Monica: What did they do to you?

"Smoke away" means go ahead and smoke as much as you want. "I haven't worked" may mean that she is unemployed and having money problems, but I wouldn't know, not having seen the episode.

First,"smoke away" means that Chandler don't care whether Joey is somking. Scond, " I haven't worked" means that Phoebe don't know what happend. Is this right?
