Gilmore Girls: Knit, People, Knit!

Lorelai starts to avoid Christopher during her daily life in Stars Hollow, leading her to admit to him that she's worried her friends and neighbors won't accept him. Upon hearing this, Christopher tries to bond with the people of Stars Hollow, but his efforts end up bringing the town knit-a-thon to an early end. Meanwhile, Olivia throws a 2002-themed party for Lucy, providing the perfect opportunity for Rory to confront Marty. Elsewhere, Luke learns that Anna is moving to New Mexico with April and demands equal rights to April from her.

Episode Quotes
Christopher: So going out with Jackson is important because ...
Lorelai: Jackson is loved, Jackson is respected. If you are in with Jackson, you are in with Stars Hollow.

Anna: Why are you here, Luke?
Luke: You know, you're always telling me I can't do this with your daughter, and I can't do that with your daughter. Well, she's not just your daughter, Anna. She's my daughter, too!
Anna: Luke.
Luke: No! I know I wasn't around for all those years, but you know that was your decision. That was your choice, Anna, and frankly it was a damn lousy one, okay? I didn't get to see her be born, or take her first steps, or take her to her first day of school. None of it! And I can never get any of that back; it's gone! But that's not going to happen anymore, that I can guarantee you.
Anna: What are you saying?
Luke: That she's my kid, all right? She's our kid, she's not just yours. And I am not going to let you treat me this way! I am her father. God, why do I even have to say that? I mean, April and I, we have this relationship, okay? And you can't just decide things; that's not how this works! I mean, we have to make decisions together, decisions about April, and I will fight you. I will fight you for that, Anna, if I have to. I have rights. I'm her father, and I have rights!

Jackson: Yep, if you need eggplants I'm your man.
Christopher: Well, I guess I have to fire my other guy then.

Christopher: You left a message on the machine?
Richard: She certainly did.
Emily: I come home and I push play on the machine, and what do I hear? Between a message from Lily Margalis about her fund raising money for children and one from my tennis pro, but my very own daughter telling me guess what? She’s married!
Lorelai: Mom I’m sorry, I just --
Emily: Why just talk about it, why not share it?
Lorelai: No, no, hey, hey!
(Emily hits play)
Lorelai: (on the answering machine) Hey! Just wanted you guys to know, Chistopher and I are back, from Paris. Gigi's all set and, uh, we just ended up, uh, getting married — so anyway, see you Friday. Bye.
Emily: Isn't that lovely?

(as people are taking down the knit-a-thon decorations)
Taylor: Be careful, just because its decorative, doesn’t mean is not sharp.

(about Jackson and Christopher's "date")
Rory: Ah cute, a mandated man-date.
