Episode Quotes
 
Luke: (to Lorelai) It's not your fault, it's not my fault. It's just ... we're not right together, you know? You're you, and I'm me, and we just, we've got to stop pretending we're something else. You don't belong with me. You belong with someone like Christopher, and I just ... let's just stop fighting it, okay? You go back to being Lorelai Gilmore, and I'll go back to being the guy in the diner who pours your coffee.
 
(about Lorelai sleeping with Christopher)
Rory: Things were good between you two. Dad and I were finally good, Mom. Do you not want me and Dad to be close? Did you mean to screw all of that up?
Lorelai: God, Rory, no! I love it that Dad has been good and that things between you and Dad have been good. I just ... I was heartbroken, and it happened, and it's over now, and it was a mistake.
 
Kirk: Luke, if you were suggesting that you were the very first person to ever think of naming a restaurant after yourself I think that Denny, Arby, and Tony Roma might have something to say about that. Not to mention Mr. Chuck E. Cheese.
Luke: Chuck E. Cheese? Chuck E. Cheese is not a person!
Kirk: Luke, do you really think a giant mouse opened a national restaurant franchise by himself?
 
Lorelai: I'm not exactly fine.
Luke: You're not?
Lorelai: No, of course not.
Luke: Well, that's too bad because I am. I'm fine.
Lorelai: Well, okay.
Luke: You know, maybe you should punch Christopher's lights out. That seemed to do it for me.
Lorelai: What?
Luke: Oh, so your boyfriend didn't tell you, huh?
Lorelai: You punched Christopher?
Luke: You two really need to work on your communication skills.
Lorelai: Oh, stop it.
Luke: What?
Lorelai: Christopher is not my boyfriend!
Luke: I don't care if he is. You know, you can date whomever or whatever you want. I could care less.
 
Rory: It was nothing? Mom, you slept with Dad!
Lorelai: For the love of God, would you please stop saying that?
Rory: No! I can't stop saying it because it happened, and you're trying to pretend it didn't!
 
(to Lorelai after she finds out that Lorelai slept with Christopher)
Rory: I can't believe you didn't tell me this. I mean, first of all you say you don't want to talk, so I figure you're going through some hard, emotional time and you need some space. That's fine. But what you didn't tell me is that you slept with Dad. No. Instead, you're going on joking about origami and marshmallow sushi like I'm some kind of idiot five-year-old!

Episode Title: That's What You Get, Folks, For Makin' Whoopi

The episode title comes from the Ray Charles song "Makin' Whoopee". The song was parodied by Alvin Rhodes and titled "Makin' Whoopi (Goldberg)". The original song includes the line "But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks for makin' whoopee".
 
Liz: It was like that movie with Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock.
T.J.: Exactly! Oh yes. Exactly. Exactly.
Liz: You're living in the same house man, but you are a couple years apart in a space-time-continuum.
T.J.: What house? It was a bus. Oh ... I thought you were talking about Speed.

The movie that Liz is referencing is The Lake House starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock as two lovers who are living two years apart. Reeves and Bullock also starred in Speed, the movie T.J. was referring to.
 
Zach: It was the Stones at Altamont, times a billion.

Altamont is a speedway in Northern California that hosted a music festival in December 1969 where the Rolling Stones played and several poor quality drugs were present. During the festival, people were killed as a result of a riot that broke out.
