Emily: Isn't it wonderful, everyone showing up for your father?
Lorelai: Yeah, but don't you ever think about scaling back a little?
Emily: I scaled back a lot. I cut two appetizers, I canceled the champagne fountain and I reduced the catering staff to six servers, not counting the point man.

Emily: If you make it look cheap, people think you're unsuccessful.
Lorelai: Absolutely right. Better to deprive them of oxygen so they don't have to think at all.
Emily: It is rather warm here, isn't it?
