Quote from Michel in Keg! Max!
Michel: Did you know that Frank rescues Chow puppies? Lorelai: Uh, no. Michel: He feeds and houses them on his own dime 'til he finds an owner. We can't fire him. And they are so cute. [chuckles] Chin-Chin and Pau-Pau. Pau-Pau's the one with the squatty little nose. I took them both. Lorelai: Oh, okay, good job. Michel: I have to go buy dog food. Will you fire Frank for me? Lorelai: Sure thing.
