What Joey means to say, is "the three musketeers." This expression is used to mean a group of three people who are very close friends or associates. Ex: Stacey, Mary, and I were like the three musketeers. We were always together until Stacey moved away during high school. Ex: Ross, Chandler, and Joey are like the three musketeers. If you find one, you can find the other two.
