[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, Monica is on the phone in the kitchen.]
Monica: Aunt Syl, stop yelling! All I'm saying is that if you had told me vegetarian lasagna, I would have made vegetarian lasagna. (pauses, listens to person on phone) Well, the meat's only every third layer, maybe you could scrape.

1) "the mean is only every third layer" does this sentence mean "the mean is just on the entire third layer"? I don't get the use of "every" here!
2)I looked up "scrape" and does it mean that "remove all the meat using the edge of a knife or a stick"?
Thanks
