Gilmore Girls Season 2 Episode 6: "Presenting Lorelai Gilmore" Quotes
Lorelai: See; now only a lady can gracefully walk around a room with a book on her head while eating Kung pow chicken. I mean a great lady can even spit the peanuts back into the container without anyone noticing.
Rory: Wow!
Lorelai: Yeah, well don't be intimidated. You have to practice and practice to get to my level.
Rory: Anyone want the last egg roll?
Dean: Err...no!
Lorelai: Hey, where are you going?
Rory: To get the last egg roll.
Lorelai: Getting the egg roll yourself?
Rory: Yes!
Lorelai: No, ladies never get their own egg rolls, ladies never get their own anything they don't even get their own ideas.
Rory: Oh Boy!
Lorelai: They just sit helplessly and wait for some young strong man to come by and assist them. They don't step in puddles, they don't step over puddles, and they can't even look at puddles. They actually need to be blindfolded and thrown in a sack and carried over puddles.
Rory: Isn't there a moratorium on how long ladies are supposed to talk?
Lorelai: Errno! Now repeat after me "I am completely helpless".
(Jess comes down the stairs drssed in a flannel shirt and a backwards baseball cap)

Luke: What? (sees Jess) What do you think you're doing?
Jess: Working.
Luke: So, you think this is funny.
Jess: I'm sorry, I thought this was the uniform.

Luke: I'm ignoring you. You do not exist.

Rory: And doesn't Neil Young look cool?
Dean: I guess.
Rory: And you'll notice he's wearing a tux.
Dean: Neil Young looks cool because he's Neil Young, not because he's wearing a tux.
Lorelai:(on phone with Emily) I don't have to ask her Mom, I know the answer... I know the answer... yeah, no, I don't have to... yeah, hold on. (to Rory) Rory, would you like Grandma's hair stylist to come and set your hair before the ball? (Rory makes a face) Oh, I did not coach her, Mom. Go back to talking about gloves!
Rory:(to Dean) I think you're going to look great in a tux.
Lane: Tails.
Dean: What?!
Lane: Yeah, according to this, all escorts must be properly attired in black tails, white cumberbuns and white gloves.
Dean: What?!
Rory: I'm sure the gloves are optional!
Lane: Not according to this.
Dean: Tails? Gloves?
Rory: Remember Neil Young. Remember that you love me. Remember that I'll be watching battlebots with you for a month!
Dean: Show me Neil Young again.
Lorelai: I swear, there is nothing in the world my mother is better at than getting someone to agree to something that in any other universe, they would never ever consider.

Emily: Oh, Richard, I didn't know you were home!
Richard: Yes, well you learn something new everyday.

Luke: How can you like that shirt?
Jess: It brings out my eyes.
Um, guys, hi, there's a lady up there with a rock the size of Neptune around her neck talking about the debutantes of ancient Greece. It's a lot easier to fall asleep if you're sitting down, trust me.
Lorelai: (walks into Luke's, where Rory is eating a massive cheeseburger while wearing her fancy debutante dress) After all you've been through tonight, I come in here and find you eating like that?? (Rory, holding burger with two hands, puts her pinky up) There ya go!
Rory: Being a lady is hard.
Rory: Battle bots!
Dean: For life!
Rory: So, did you know that you're considered a hot dad?
Lorelai: Hah!
Christopher: Really?
Rory: Libby said that it's too bad that you're my real dad, because if you were my stepdad, I could steal you away from Mom.
Lorelai: Ugh.
Christopher: That Libby's got a good life ahead of her.
