Luke: (about Paris, who is annoying him) Rory, how much do you like this girl?
Rory: Do what you gotta do, Luke.

Richard: How tall are you, anyway?
Dean: Why, you want to dance?
Richard: No, thank you. (thinks about it) But I appreciate the offer though.

Richard: I paid Yale a great deal of money. Getting Rory in would be a breeze.
Lorelai: We don't like breezes, they mess up our hair.

Paris: We're going to reveal the seedy underbelly of small towns -- starting with yours.

Lorelai: Wow. Why?
Richard: Well, I've been doing it for as long as I remember.
Lorelai: Be bold, Dad. Wake up at quarter to six one day.

Kirk: Is she a blonde?
Rory: What?
Kirk: I'll check it out right now. (walks away)

Richard: Who's going to help Rory get into Harvard?
Lorelai: Reese Witherspoon.

Richard: Next time, stop the car completely before you get out.

Rory: Ah, ribs cracking, organs crushing.
