Quote from Emily in Rory's Dance
Emily: You do not go running out the door when a boy honks. Lorelai: Mom, it's fine. Emily: It certainly is not fine. This is not a drive-through. She's not fried chicken. Rory: But I told him to honk and I'd meet him out there. We agreed. Emily: I don't care what you told him. If he wants to take you out, he will walk up to this door and knock, and say, "Good evening", and come inside for a moment like any civilized human being would know to do. Lorelai: Now, Mom, this is silly. I have met him already. Emily: Well, I haven't. Lorelai: Yeah, but- Emily: We will wait until he comes to the door. Rory: He doesn't know he's supposed to. Emily: He will figure it out. [car honks] [silence] [car honks] He's not a very bright boy, is he? Lorelai: Mom, please. [doorbell rings] Emily: Don't rush. A lady never rushes.
