Rory: (when she sees the Chilton skirt) I'm gonna be in a Britney Spears video?
Sookie: You're going to Chilton! (Lorelai smacks her arm) Sorry.
Lorelai: You did it babe. You got in.
Rory: How did this happen? You didn't sleep with the principal did you?
Lorelai: No honey, that was a joke.

(on the phone) But she's supposed to start Monday. It just doesn't give me a lot of time to pull a bank job. (pause) Well, never mind. I was just kidding. (pause) No, a bank job is robbing a bank.

Lorelai

Sookie: Okay, can I say one more thing? I think it's your only option.
Lorelai: Sookie, there are several chapters from a Stephen King novel I'd reenact before I'd resort to that option.

Rory: (wearing her Chilton skirt) Mom, so what do you think?
Sookie: Wow, it makes you look smart.
Rory: Okay, no more wine for you. (to Lorelai) Mom?
Lorelai: You look like you were swallowed by a kilt.
Rory: Fine, you could hem it. A little, only a little.
Lorelai: Okay. Or I could hem it a lot.
Rory: No, you're not. I don't want it to be too short.

Lorelai: How are the, um, girls at the bridge club?
Emily: Old.
Lorelai: Well, good.

Rory: And we get to wear uniforms. No more having people check you out to see what jeans you're wearing 'cause everyone's dressed alike in boring clothes and just there to learn.
Lane: Okay, there's academic-minded and then there's Amish.

Lane: So I told my mom you're changing schools.
Rory: Was she thrilled?
Lane: The party's on Friday.

Lane: The party's on Friday. I gotta go. I have to have a pre-hayride cup of tea with a future doctor. How do I look? Korean?
Rory: Spitting image.
Lane: Good. Bye.

Rory: God! You're like Ruth Gordon just standing there with the tannis root. Make a noise.
Dean: Rosemary's Baby.
Rory: Yeah.
Dean: Well, that's a great movie. You've got good taste. Are you moving?
Rory: No, just my books are.

Red meat can kill you. Enjoy.

Luke

Luke: Coffee, and fries (looks at Rory as she's sipping her coffee). I can't stand it. This is so unhealthy. Rory, please. Put down that cup of coffee. You do not want to grow up to be like your mom.
Rory: Sorry, too late.

Joey: (To Lorelai) You do not look like a mother. (To Rory) And you do not look like a daughter.
Lorelai: That's possibly very sweet of you.
Joey: So ... daughter. points to counter You know I am travelling with a friend...
Lorelai: She's sixteen.
Joey: Bye.
Lorelai: Drive safe.
(Joey leaves quickly)
