Rory: Cardio Salsa?
Lorelai: Yeah, they play the Miami Sound Machine and you dance around, you get a really great workout.
Rory: Why would you buy me this?
Lorelai: Because I'll feel stupid doing in alone.
Rory: Too bad.
Lorelai: Come on.
Rory: No way.
Lorelai: Salsa with me. Pretend I'm Antonio Banderas.
Rory: If you were standing in back of Antonio Banderas, I couldn't pretend that you were Antonio Banderas.
Lorelai: Don't you want your mother to live a long and healthy life?
Rory: Not if I have to do Cardio Salsa.
Lorelai: What?
Rory: Nice knowing you, senora. Adios.
Lorelai: I would salsa for you.
Rory: Well, luckily, you'll never have to.

Lorelai: Dwight says it needs it now, and if we let that lawn die, he's gonna vibe us for the rest of our lives.
Rory: Not me, I'm going off to college next year.
Lorelai: You'll be home for holidays.
Rory: Maybe not now.
Lorelai: You would stay away from me on holidays just because of Dwight?
Rory: Hey, nobody wants vibing on the holidays.
Lorelai: Rory, please? I'm gonna be seriously late if I have to go all the way home.
Rory: Fine.
Lorelai: Thank you. You're my favorite daughter.
Rory: You say that to all your daughters.
Lorelai: Yes, I do, but I only mean it with you.

Lorelai: [on the phone] Dad, I explained this to Mom and I'll explain it to you. I'm not sixteen, I don't live with you anymore, I've been making my own decisions, romantic and otherwise, for a long time now and you can play all the golf you want but the subject better be letting chicks into the Augusta Golf Club because my love life is officially off limits.
Richard: Didn't you hear what I just said?
Lorelai: About the tea? Yes, I heard it, and I'm sorry, but it sounds insane.
Richard: Of course it sounds insane! It is insane, that is not the point.
Lorelai: Okay, then what's the point?
Richard: The point is your mother is upset, and I don't want her to be upset. Now, you may not understand her world, I may not understand her world, but it is her world, and in her world it is very, very important that she have the first cup of tea. And I don't care about your independence or what you told your mother or anything else you have to say. If my wife wants the first cup of tea, she's going to have the first cup of tea, that's it! Now, I will call you after I play golf.

Lorelai: Dean, please have your pager with you, please, come on. Dean, come on! Damn you and your Unabomber tendencies!

Jess: Whoa, whoa, slow down.
Rory: Get out of my way.
Jess: I like the new look. It's very Blue Crush.
Rory: Hilarious.

Jess: What's the matter?
Rory: Nothing.
Jess: You're walking pretty fast for nothing.
Rory: Well, our president said exercise and I am very patriotic.

Lorelai: Do you remember skiing with the Danners and their Dobermans?
Emily: Oh, God, yes.
Lorelai: This was worse. And, by the way, not just for me – it was pretty bad for him, too. It wasn't like he was in love and I was miserable. We were both in pain. Deep pain, Marathon Man kind of pain. But despite all of this horrible pain that we were both in, and would be in again if we had to spend one more second together, if you really want me to, I will go to the Bowie concert with him.
Emily: Well, your saying that means a lot. Thank you, Lorelai. Borrow Rory's sweater when you go.
Lorelai: [sings] Ground control to Major Tom...
