Blair: Let's make it clear from the start. We don't know each other here.
Dan: [pauses] Works for me.
Vanessa: Me too.

It's not Constance, Blair. The only queens at NYU are the ones with tickets to see Liza at Carnegie Hall.

Chuck

Blair: You are so sweet to see me off. I can't believe NYU orientation week is here!
Chuck: I have to object to you living in the dorms. Florescent lighting, communal showers, public school girls. There's a place for that, and that is the back of a video store.

Every fall confident high school seniors transform into nervous college freshmen. They leave their parents' homes for the hallowed halls of higher education. Like any new venture, the new journey represents opportunity to conquer new territory. Or to be a little less lonely. But just because the opportunity presents itself doesn't mean everyone is ready to take it.

Blair: I feel like I got off on the wrong foot here and I'd like to start again. So, thanks for bringing me Humphrey.
Dan: Yeah, well, I'd like to think that if I needed it, someone would do the same for me, although let's be honest, we both know it wouldn't be you. Oh ... no headbands in college.

[leaving message] Hey, Blair, it's Dan. I know I'm not someone you want to hear from late at night or ... any hour, but I need your help. Call me.

Dan

Blair: She looks like she needs a sandwich.
Chuck: Looks just right to me ...

Carter: I know what you're doing. You can't avoid what happened forever.
Serena: [undoes straps, alerts paparazzi and bolts] Watch me ... Oh no!

Spare me, S. I get every issue of Hello and OK! there is. I know what you did this summer, and who. Cristiano Ronaldo? I hope you got your shots before you traveled. Should I be worried?

Blair

Blair: It isn't an open relationship, we're completely monogamous! It's just another one of our games, like the rest.
Serena: Yeah, until it isn't anymore. Playing the scorned woman and actually being the scorned woman is a slippery slope.

Blair: Chuck plays the cheating bastard and I play the scorned woman. I even get to choose who to humiliate! Models, tourists, Upper West Siders ...
Serena: I don't know if anyone ever told you this, but the honeymoon is supposed to end, it's not real. The real part is after the honeymoon ends, when you settle down with someone, the three-month milestone.
Blair: It's not a milestone, it's a gravestone.

Dan: There is nothing out-of-sight, out-of-mind about your summer. I know what happened. I know there was no ashram.
Serena: I went to an ashram ... on a tour?

Gossip Girl: Spotted: Chuck Bass, up to his old tricks.

Welcome back Upper East Siders. After a long hot summer away, I see it didn't take you long to dirty up the clean slates I gave you. My inbox is overflowing, so let's get to the good stuff, shall we?
