Lorelai: [on the phone] It's just always so weird, this "J"-word topic of ours.
Rory: You don't have to refer to him as "the 'J' word." Call him "Jess," and feel free to tell me when you see him. I mean, if you see him eight times in one day, you don't need to call me eight different times to tell me. That's clearly overkill.
Lorelai: Sure.
Rory: Maybe, like, you could limit the reports to just significant sightings. If you see him a hundred yards away, disappearing around a corner, I really don't need to know that. If he comes up to you and spits in your face, report that.
Lorelai: Permission to spit back?
Rory: You know what I'm saying.
