Emily Quote #464

Quote from Emily in The Prodigal Daughter Returns

Emily: You know what? I am tired of all this. I am tired of your attitude toward me. You look at me as a thing of amusement.
Lorelai: I don't.
Emily: Something to be pitied, to feel sorry for. "Poor, out-of-touch Emily. She has nothing. She lives to organize parties and frivolous affairs. Who would want to do that? To be that?"
Lorelai: Mom, I've never thought that.
Emily: If I want a plane, I'll buy a plane.
Lorelai: Okay, good, go for it.
Emily: It's my fault that Rory dropped out of Yale. It's my fault that she didn't go back. It's my fault that she's with Logan. It's my fault that she's not happy. It's my fault. It's all my fault.
Lorelai: It's not your fault.
Emily: That's right, it's not my fault! I did nothing but take care of her. I bought her clothes. I got her a job. I guided her. I threw parties for her and introduced her to new people, new things, and she just... The way she talked to me, you would have been very proud.
Lorelai: No.
Emily: Oh, yes. She looked at me just like you used to, with that defiant, "Who are you to be telling me what to do?" sort of look. Then she left, packed her things and moved out when I wasn't even there to see her go. No "thank you." No "goodbye." You would have been very, very proud.

Quote from Lorelai

Lorelai: Rory's back.
Luke: What?
Lorelai: She's back. She's back at home, she's back at school, she got a job, and she did it all on her own. She's at Lane's picking up her things, and then we're going to pull a major all-nighter. We need burgers, fries, onions rings, and anything else you can think of. Ooh, I'm going to go next door and pick up some ice cream at Taylor's. She's back. We can set the date. We can get married now because Rory's back. Don't skimp on the fries. We don't want to lose her again.

Quote from Lorelai

Luke: Listen.
Lorelai: Are you cooking?
Luke: Is that listening?
Lorelai: Well, I'm hungry.
Luke: Focus.
Lorelai: I'm hungry.
Luke: Shh.
Lorelai: Fine. I don't hear anything.
Luke: Exactly.
Lorelai: Okay, Simon, Garfunkel.

Quote from Lorelai

Luke: You're not happy they're gone?
Lorelai: No, I am. I just wanted to say "goodbye."
Luke: Goodbye?
Lorelai: I wanted to have a "We're done" party, buy them some pizza.
Luke: More pizza.
Lorelai: And I had going-away presents for them.
Luke: I gave them a present, a $2,000 going-away present. That's got to bring some smiles.
Lorelai: But I bought paper hats and noisemakers.
Luke: The place was covered with dust. You were woken up at 6:00 a.m. every morning by the hammering. I thought you'd be happy.
Lorelai: I am. I'm just sad at the same time. You've never been with a woman before?
