Episode Quotes
 
Lorelai: (to Rory) Honey, someday when you're a little older you will be introduced to something that is extremely seductive but fickle. A fair-weather friend who seems benign but packs a wallop like a donkey kick, and that is the Long Island iced tea. The Long Island iced tea makes you do things that you normally wouldn't do, like lifting your skirt in public or calling someone you normally wouldn't call at really weird times.
 
Lorelai: If eating cake is wrong, I don't want to be right.
 
(Max opens the door to the broiler)
Lorelai: Wow, did you know we had that?
Rory: Not a clue.
 
Rory: He has much knowledge.
Lorelai: We shall form a cult around him.
Rory: Build a statue many stories high.
Lorelai: We shall grow our hair long and stop bathing.
 
Luke: I guess if you can find that one person, you know, who's willing to put up with all your crap and doesn't want to change you or dress you, or you know, make you eat French food, then marriage can be all right ... but that's only if you find that person.
Lorelai: Yeah ... if you find that person.
 
Rory: Okay, our house is burning down, and you can save the cake or me. What do you choose?
Lorelai: Well that's not fair. The cake doesn't have legs.
 
Rory: Are you and Max getting married?
Lorelai: No.
Rory: Why?
Lorelai: Because I didn't want to try on my wedding dress every night.
 
Lorelai: No one has ever made me a chuppah.
Luke: You only get married once ... theoretically.
Lorelai: Yeah ... you only get married once.

During the scene where Lorelai and Rory are tasting cakes, the shot cuts from Rory taking a bite of the raspberry cake to Lorelai. When the shot goes back to Rory, the cake is untouched.
