Richard: So, Lorelai couldn't have been more than, what, 8 or 10 years old? But she was very definite about the whole thing. She looked me directly in the eye, and she said, "When I grow up, I'm going to marry Tip O'Neill." [Christopher chuckles] I swear to you, I nearly had a heart attack.
Lorelai: I liked the name "Tip." I thought it was cute, like a puppy or a bunny.
Richard: Anyway, I'm happy that you two got married, and quite relieved not to have had Tip O'Neill as a son-in-law.
