Lorelai Quote #2029
Quote from Lorelai in New and Improved Lorelai
Lorelai: You guys must be pretty jazzed, though, huh? I mean, you finally did it, you finally got a shot at getting the daughter you've always wanted.
Richard: I'm too tired to have this conversation.
Lorelai: Rory, here, right under your roof. Excellent.
Emily: You're being ridiculous.
Lorelai: Now you get your do-over. A new and improved Lorelai. Congrats. Very well played.
Richard: Lorelai, listen to me. I know that you think some sort of con has been perpetrated on you.
Lorelai: Hey, it's only a paper moon, Dad.
Richard: The fact of the matter is, your mother and I were just trying to do the right thing. We're all striving for the same goal. We want Rory happy and healthy. Now, she's taken a bit of a stumble. But we can get her back on the right track. All of us, together. We're going to need your input and your involvement to achieve that.
Lorelai: My involvement ends here, with the laundry basket.
Emily: What is that flip remark supposed to mean?
Lorelai: It's supposed to mean that I'm out, you've won, she's all yours. Course, the laundry basket, I'm going to want back.

Quote from Lorelai
Emily: Lorelai, stop this. I know you're upset. I know you hate us, but-
Lorelai: I don't hate you. Why would I hate you?
Emily: Well, because we... Because you thought we...
Lorelai: You were just being you. You couldn't help it.
Emily: What are you talking about?
Lorelai: The Scorpion and the Frog. It's an old story. The scorpion says to the frog, "Hey, frog. Give me a lift to the other side of the pond." Frog says, "No way. You'll sting me and I'll die." Scorpion says, "Will not! 'Cause then we'd both drown." Frog says "Cool." So, scorpion gets on the frog's back, and frog makes it to the middle of the pond, and the scorpion stings him. As the frog is going down, he says, "Why would you do that? Now we'll both die." Scorpion says, "Sorry, it's just my nature." Frog. Scorpion.
Emily: I always thought it was a turtle.
Lorelai: Whatever it was, you guys couldn't help it.
Quote from Paris
Paris: I'm meeting more of Doyle's family tonight. I've been meeting people for months. He's got, like, five hundred cousins. And you know what? He's the tallest one in the family.
Rory: Really?
Paris: Yep. Family get-together is like a Lollipop Guild Convention. I have to stop myself from asking how it's going at the chocolate factory.
Rory: Good, good. Get it all out now.
Quote from Luke
Luke: So when I said "what about the kids", I didn't mean "what about our kids". I mean, yes, obviously, what about our kids? But I didn't mean we had to have any kids. 'Cause we don't. But we can, I just didn't want you to think that I was laying down some kind of a mandate. I mean, kids. It's plural, so it sounds like a lot. But we can just have one kid, one's fine, or more if you want more, or we don't have to have any kids. We could just get a plant.
Lorelai: What?
Luke: Nothing.
Lorelai: Okay.
Luke: I bought a house, Twickham house. I bought it for us. I don't have it anymore. I could probably get it back, but I just thought you should know. I bought it. For the kids, that we don't have to have. It's a big house, and we don't have to fill it up with kids, you know? We could, we could get furniture. Go shopping for a couch, or get some end tables. [sighs] I hate shopping for furniture. For me, kids are easier.
Lorelai: I love shopping.
Luke: Go to sleep.
Lorelai: Mmkay.
