Lane: I can't go to the prom with Young Chui.
Mrs. Kim: Why not? I thought you wanted to go to the prom.
Lane: Yes, I do wanna go to the prom.
Mrs. Kim: I thought you say I could approve the boy you go to the prom with.
Lane: I did say that, but...
Mrs. Kim: Well, I found the boy, I approve the boy, now you go to the prom with the boy.
Lorelai: Mama, I'm sure Young Chui's very nice and I'm so grateful you're letting me go to the prom, but the thing is... I like someone else.
Mrs. Kim: Someone else?
Lane: Yes.
Mrs. Kim: Someone else who?
Lane: Someone else who's been a good friend to this family. Who's proven himself to be of high moral character, someone who you yourself feels is worthy. So worthy, in fact, you let him sit in our pew at church.
Mrs. Kim: Who- Who did I let sit in our pew?
Lane: Dave Rygalski.
Mrs. Kim: The guitar player?
Lane: I know, crazy, right? I can hardly believe it myself because, to be quite honest with you, when I first met him, when you hired him to play at Thanksgiving, I just didn't like him at all. He bugged me, actually. But the more you liked him and trusted him, the more I saw the good in him, the God in him, actually, and now I'm convinced... he's the boy I want to take me to prom.
Mrs. Kim: He's not Korean. [exits]
