Rory: Dean, please. This is a girl thing.
Dean: Okay. Tell me when I'm supposed to pay attention again.
| Lorelai: Oh. Four years in a row, I have come this close to winning. Last year, I swear to God, I had it!
Luke: I know the story.
Lorelai: It was hour twenty-three.
Luke: I know the story.
Lorelai: I’m dancing with Henry 'Ho-Ho' McAphie the third.
Luke: How many people heard me say I know the story?
(customers raise their hands)
Lorelai: And Ho-Ho’s fading, so I’m trying to buck him up, saying "Come on, Ho-Ho. Stay with me Ho-Ho," and then all of a sudden he starts yelling, "Stop calling me Ho-Ho, it’s making me hungry!
Luke: Oh, hey, look, there goes Tommy Tune.
Lorelai: And out of nowhere, Kirk comes dancing by, waving a McDonald’s hot apple pie in the air and of course Ho-Ho lunges for the pie and drops my hand and that was it. Kirk wins, I’m out. I’m gonna get that Ho-Ho someday.
| Luke: I think I have some glue back at the diner.
Lorelai: Glue, yes – we love glue!
Luke: I wouldn’t say that too loudly if I were you.
| Lorelai: I need you Dean, the team needs you!
Dean: What team?
Lorelai: Pick a team, it needs you.
| Sookie: But, you're my best friend.
Lorelai: Yes, I am, and I can only remain your best friend as long as Jackson doesn't kill me.
Sookie: Lorelai!
Lorelai: Sookie, he's a produce man. They'll never find the body, but the squash will be especially chatty that year.
| Luke: Get out, Taylor.
Taylor: Why?
Luke: Just a code I live by.
