Lorelai: Okay, for starters, I think you have to realize something. You were really lucky with Dean. He was an exceptional first boyfriend, and you got spoiled. Most of us didn't have first boyfriends like Dean. Most of us had first boyfriends like Brian Hutchins.
Rory: Brian Hutchins?
Lorelai: [sighs] Seventh grade, I'm sitting in the library, walks up, asks me to go steady. I say yes. He walks away and I don't see him again until the tenth grade when he tries to sell me a dimebag at the Sadies Hawkins Day dance. And he was way overcharging for it, too.
Rory: That's demented.
Lorelai: That's what most of us had to put up with. Where do you think the Susan Faludi's of the world came from?
Rory: So, you're telling me this is just the way it is, and I have to get used to Jess not calling when he says he will?
Lorelai: No, I'm saying you just have to realize that every guy is different. Give Jess a chance to explain before you freeze him out.
