Episode Quotes |

Lorelai: Hi.
Christopher: Hey. How was the funeral?
Lorelai: Sad.
(they sit down on the sofa)
Lorelai: It's not just Luke.
Christopher: Lor --
Lorelai: I mean, you were right. There are feelings there. Because, when that ended I just ... jumped.
Christopher: I pushed you.
Lorelai: I jumped. But if that's all there was, if that's all it was, we could fix it, you know, with time.
Christopher: But it's not.
Lorelai: (shakes her head) You've always been this possibility for me. This wonderful possibility. But it's just not right. And I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
Christopher: Yeah. I guess I should have known, huh? It took me twenty years to get you to say yes.
Lorelai: (begins to cry) I need you to know that you're the man I want to want.
Christopher: I know.
Lorelai: You have no idea how badly I wish --
Christopher: I do. I do know. (holds her hand) I do.
| Lorelai: (to Zach) That sounds great. We didn't need a song that necessarily had "dogs" in the lyrics. Right, Michel?
Michel: Whatever. David Bowie sounds like a hoot.
| Lorelai: Honey, Look. You don't have to be mad at your dad. It's a complicated situation.
Rory: Mom, stop it. I'm not Switzerland.
Lorelai: What?
Rory: I'm on your side.
| Lorelai: You're looking good Dad. I'd say you shaved a few minutes off your last lap. If I had to guess, I think you are clocking in at about a 45 minute mile, which puts you just behind Ms. Abaloni.
Emily: Lorelai! Really.
Richard: Now I think that's an unfair comparison. Ms. Abaloni had her bypass two whole days before mine.
Lorelai: No no no, no excuses! You're just going to have to dig a little deeper.
Rory: Come on Grandpa! Just visualize Ms. Abaloni eating your dust!
Emily: Rory! Honestly.
Richard: No it's alright. (speeds up) How's this?
Lorelai: Wow! I would say we have a new slow walk leader in the cardiac recovery wing. Hey, do you hear that? (pretends to be a cheering crowd)
Rory: What? The crowd cheering?
Lorelai and Rory: Wooooooo!
Rory: Yeah Grandpa!
Emily: Oh, would you two stop, you're making a scene.
Lorelai: Mr. Gilmore, congratulations on your recent victory. Any opinions about the allogations of steroid use amoung your fellow athletes?
Richard: Well, I consider myself proof positive that it can be done, and done clean.
