Episode Quotes
Gossip Girl: (voiceover) Spotted: Jenny Humphrey wading in the Met fountain fishing for change. Blair Waldorf seen dallying with an off-duty doorman at the Blarney Stone on a Monday night. It looks like the battle between the Queen B. and Little J. has moved from the streets to the blogs. Who's sending this debasing dish? I have a feeling...

Hazel: It's kinda hard to party after the gay bomb drops.

Dan: How are you always so right?
Serena: It's easy when you're always wrong.

Gossip Girl: (voiceover) But the worst thing the truth can do? It's when you finally tell it, it doesn't set you free but locks you away, forever.
Serena: Blair?
Blair: Serena, what are you doing here? It's late.(Serena starts crying) Oh my God. What's happened? What's wrong? Talk to me.
Serena: I can't.
Blair: Of course you can.
Serena: No. No, B, this is the one thing I can't tell you. I can't tell anyone.
Blair: I'm not anyone, I'm me. You can tell me anything.
Serena: No I can't. Because then that would make you a part of it. And you can't be a part of this.
Blair: What are you talking about? You're starting to scare me. Hey, hey, hey. We're sisters. You're my family. What is you, is me. There's nothing you could ever say to make me let go. I love you. What is it?
Serena: I killed someone.

Gossip Girl: (voiceover) This just in, Asher Hornsby has been spotted locking lips before class but not with his girlfriend. Looks like gentlemen don't prefer blondes, Little J., they prefer other gentlemen. Is this just another round of blanks fired between B. and Little J.? I'm tired of being the bearer of bad grudges. This is the last item that goes to press without proof.

Serena: Oh, Sarah again, what is she, your new girlfriend?
Dan: Yeah, just kidding, but she's new in town, and she does want to meet you.
