Quote from Lorelai in The Breakup, Part 2
Lorelai: Honey, are you sure you don't want to... Rory: Do not say wallow. Lorelai: Swallow your coffee before you eat? Rory: I am fine. Lorelai: I wish you could see the look on your face. Rory: It's the same look you had on your face when you broke up with Max. Did wallowing help you get over him? Lorelai: Uh... I'm not saying wallowing will help you get over Dean. It's part of the process. It's the mourning period. It's a step, an important step. The only thing that'll get you over somebody is time.
