This festival is commemorating the founding of our town, young lady.
I know Taylor. I'm sorry.
She's bipolar.
Really? But you're so young...
S1 E16Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers
You brought me to Beirut?
It's a salvage yard.
Ah. And yet it looks so much like Beirut.
I had no idea that three months was the car anniversary.
Four months you get a plane.
Boy, relationships sure have changed since I was a kid. [they lean back and look at the stars] I'm having one of those moments right now.
What moments?
One of those moments that everything is so perfect and so wonderful that you almost feel sad because nothing can ever be this good again.
S1 E17The Breakup, Part 2
Rory, my heart, today is Saturday, the day of rest!
Sunday's the day of rest.
No, Saturday's the day of pre-rest, see? Then by the time you get to Sunday, you're rested enough...to enjoy your rest.
That made absolutely no sense.
That's because it's 6:00 in the morning!
Some people like getting up early.
You lie.
Unbelievable! She’s here five minutes she has a date. I’ve been going to this school nine years and I’m the French soda monitor.
Yeah, you do know honey that garbage doesn’t actually talk at all unless it’s on Sesame Street.
That doesn’t make sense. This is Dean we’re talking about. He’s crazy about you. He calls like 25 times a day. Have you seen the cover of his notebook? It’s one step away from stalker material.
S1 E18The Third Lorelai
[Lorelai is sparring with Michel over the hotel reservation computer as she answers the phone.]
Independence Inn!
I need the hat rack.
[mysteriously] The fish flies at night!
What?
I don't know. Who is this?
[Richard hears from his mother at Friday night dinner.]
[So] you were on the phone…
Long distance.
God?
London.
God lives in London?
My mother lives in London.
Your mother is God?
Lorelai…
So, God is a woman.
Lorelai…
And a relative! That's so cool. I am gonna totally ask for favors.
Make her stop.
Oh, that I could.
I still can't get over that I'm related to God. It's gonna make getting Madonna tickets so much easier.
Do you know that every night at dinner the Kennedy clan would sit around the table having lively debates about everything under the sun. They would quiz each other about current events, historical events and intellectual trivia. Now the Gilmore clan is just as smart and wordly as the Kennedy's so come on someone say something.
Did you know that a butt model makes $10,000 a day?
Mother, Grandma is a very old woman, I highly doubt that she's going to remember everything she ever bought you.
She will remember down to the very last shrimp fork and do you know why?
No. [to statue of two dogs] Do you guys know why?
Because she doesn't just give you a present, she gives you a present and she tells you where to put it, how to use it, what it costs - for insurance purposes of course - and God forbid you should have a different opinion or you don't think it works in the space or you just get tired of waking up every morning with those horrifying animals staring at you!
[to the dogs] She's just upset.
Stop talking to the dogs!
S1 E19Emily in Wonderland
[At Friday dinner, Rory wants family baby pictures from Emily for a school project.]
And I need some of Mom, too.
I thought we already had this conversation.
Yeah, but I don't believe you.
Mother, tell her.
I don't have any baby pictures of your mother.
Thank you.
How could you not have any baby pictures of Mom?
Because, when your mother was seven, I came downstairs and found her burning all of her baby pictures.
Why would you do that? I'm sure you were a cute baby.
She was. She was very cute.
4… 3… 2… 1…
… in most respects.
And we have liftoff.
What does that mean?
Nothing.
I don't see what the problem is. You certainly grew into it.
Grew into what?
As a child, your mother had an unusually large head.
The best thing about it was that she would tell me — constantly. My first complete sentence was, "Big Head want dolly".
[Emily is talking about a set of antique chairs she recently acquired.]
Of course, they could only get ten of these, so I'm two chairs short of a set.
You're telling me.
