Episode Quotes |
| |
Emily: Eat your food.
Lorelai: I think one of them is still alive!
Emily: Lorelai!
Lorelai: No, seriously. He was over near the radish like five minutes ago.
| Emily: Oh, don't act so scandalized. It was not at all uncommon for prominent families to keep the bloodlines closed.
Lorelai: Keeping the bloodlines closed. Is that what we're calling it?
Emily: Well, what would you call it?
Lorelai: Oh, I don't know. How about "Good morning, Appalachia, I got a mighty cute sister and an extra set of toes."
| Sookie: I was just wondering if it's going to be okay to set up a buffet in the dining room.
Emily: I don't know. What do you think Pennilyn Lott would do? You think she'd set it up in the dining room? Because personally, I think we should just toss some cheese cubes in the coffin, stuff some toothpicks in her mouth, and let the people go to town.
| Lorelai: Oh, my God. I delivered Gran's clothes to the funeral home, but I forgot to include underwear.
Rory: Gran's going commando?
| Rory: They're a little nutty.
Lorelai: Yeah, with extra nuts on top.
| Marilyn: You look absolutely stunning! Please, tell me you're an idiot.
Lorelai: Well, I have my moments.
| Kirk: I read lips. My girlfriend taught me. It's so we can have quiet time and keep the conversation going at the same time. (watching Luke and Nicole argue) Okay, she just said, "Hardwood sponge is the authority of the hostile biographer." And then he responded, "Just phone cords to original samovars."
