Richard Quote #159
Quote from Richard in You Jump, I Jump, Jack
Emily: He is not good enough for Lorelai. Or to be Rory's stepfather, God forbid.
Richard: Can we be a little more of a snob, Emily?
Emily: The fact that you paraded him around the club. Our club!
Richard: It happened to be a fruitful outing. I am going to assist him in franchising his diner.
Emily: Richard, that hirsute lout is not capable of running a complex business.
Richard: Well, that's obvious, Emily. That's why he will have no significant role, he will be the frontman. We'll shave him, stick his picture on the menus. The whole thing will, hopefully, bestow some credibility on him. At least then, if this insane relationship between him and Lorelai continues, we can legitimately take him to places like the club. At least, on holidays.
Emily: This is absurd. You're absurd, the whole thing's absurd.
Richard: And you're not thinking ahead. [chuckles]

Quote from Emily
Emily: Diners are generally so filthy. I'm sure yours isn't, but the horror stories you hear. I read that one in Vermont got caught serving roadkill. Do you know what that is?
Luke: Uh, yeah, it's, uh, dead animals from the street.
Emily: From the street, from the backyard, fished out of pools. These diners find it and serve it. Again, probably not yours. But the fact that this place got away with it at all is astounding. I guess people who frequent diners don't look too closely at what they're eating out of self defense.
Luke: We don't serve roadkill at my place.
Emily: Well, good for you. I had a friend who ate at a diner once and the next day she dropped dead. Her family considered suing the place but there's nothing to get from these people. A couple of stools and a toaster. But they were sure it was a matter of hygiene and they eventually drove them out of the state. I don't want to tell you what they found when they moved the stove. Would you like another beer, Luke?
Quote from Luke
Luke: [on the phone] And he wants to shave me.
Lorelai: Shave what?
Luke: I don't know, he just kept talking about shaving me, and I'm tipsy. We hit the club bar, and I didn't want to sound dumb and just order a beer because it's nitwit juice, so I had what your dad was having which was whiskey something, more whiskey than something, let me tell you, 'cause I can't even see straight.
Lorelai: Aw, you poor thing.
Luke: And I've got an art dealer now.
Lorelai: No!
Luke: I'm driving to Manhattan next week to look at some Diebenkorns. What's a Diebenkorn?
Lorelai: I don't know.
Luke: Oh, and I bought some golf clubs, they cost the same as a car.
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: Come on, babe. You'll feel better about halfway home.
Luke: Good.
Lorelai: Then the eye-popping nausea will hit you. The rich food mixes with the bitter memories and it all gets worse, and then it gets better.
Luke: Good.
Lorelai: Until you get to Route 44, and then you hit bottom.
Luke: Good. Great.
Lorelai: I'll be ready with a tongue depressor to keep you from swallowing your tongue. I keep them in my purse. Step up.
