(a group comes into the diner singing)...
Luke: What's going on...?
Taylor: Well, we were carolling around town and we got a bit chilly and we thought that maybe we could trade you a song for some hot chocolate...
Luke: You want free hot chocolate.
Taylor: No, no, we'll sing for it. Any tune you like.
Luke: ...And then I give you free hot chocolate.
Taylor: ...yeah...
Luke: Tell you what, you can have your hot chocolate, pay for it, then go next door and sing for the marshmallows.

Luke: Just tell me you forbid her to see the bag boy.
Lorelai: I did not forbid her to see the bag boy.
Luke: Are you crazy?
Lorelai: Well, he looks like he's moving up to produce, so he's suddenly become quite a catch.
Luke: That kid is trouble.

Luke: You liked going...
Lorelai: I did.
Luke: Rory's there without you...
Lorelai: She is.
Luke: You and Rory aren't getting along right now and you feel bad at being separated during a time you usually share together.
Lorelai: Wow.
Luke: Did I mention you come here every damn day?

It's not 'Ms. Gilmore', it's Mrs. Gilmore! Mrs. Gilmore, I'm not a cosmo woman.

Emily

(Lorelai avoids going into Richard's room.)
Luke: So, who are you going to go find now?
Lorela: Stop.
Luke: How about Jimmy Hoffa? That'll keep you busy for a while.
Lorelai: I said stop.
Luke: You can't avoid going in that room forever.
Lorelai: I'm not avoiding anything. I'm going to find coffee.
Luke: The machine is jammed.
Lorelai: (Backing away) There are other machines.
Luke: Admit your afraid.
Lorelai: You have no idea what your talking about.
Luke:The truth hurts.
Lorelai: No, you know what hurts? Having a screwdriver jammed in the side of your head.
Luke: What? (Looks behind him and sees a person on a gurney.) Oh, my God!

(at the hospital)
Rory: I hated going to that party tonight without you.
Lorelai: I hated you going to that party tonight without me. How were the apple tarts.
Rory: Grandma didn't make 'em this year.
Lorelai: Really?
Rory: Yep.
Lorelai: That's weird.
Rory: I know.
Lorelai: Hmm, are you lying?
Rory: Through my teeth.
Lorelai: Good girl.

Taylor, come quickly. Our "before" Mary is about to become an "after." Who else in town is knocked up?

Miss Patty

Remember two years ago, I got my mom that perfume? Okay, to me that said, "Hey Mom, you work hard, you deserve something fancy." Now, to my mother it said, "Hey Mom, here's some smelly sex juice -- the kind I use to lure boys with." And resulted in me being sent to Bible camp all summer.

Lane

Lorelai: I don't hate you.
Dean: No?
Lorelai: No. Though I did imagine 20 different ways to remove your head from your body.
Dean: Yeah? Which one looked the best?
Lorelai: Hedge clippers. Dull ones.

Luke: C'mon, you gotta think positive here. Bright side, good thoughts. Rainbows, unicorns. (slowing down) Clowns. (pause) Little ... cute ... (longer pause) ... furry ... (giving up) Okay, I'm out.
Lorelai: Thank God.

Emily: (almost in tears) Richard Gilmore, there may be many things happening in this hospital tonight, but your dying is not one of them. I did not sign on to your dying, and it is not going to happen. Not tonight, not for a very long time. In fact, I demand to go first. Do I make myself clear?
Richard: (tenderly) Yes, Emily. You may go first.

Lorelai: I feel like this is one of those moments when I should be remembering all the great times I had with my dad, you know. The time he took me shopping for a Barbie or to the circus or fishing and my mind is a complete blank.
Luke: Well I'm sure it happened.
Lorelai: No it didn't. We never did any of that. He went to work, he came home, he read the paper, he went to bed, I snuck out the window. Simple. He was a very by the numbers guy. I was never very good with numbers.
Luke: I'm sure he loves you.
Lorelai: You know my dad is not a bad guy.
Luke: I'm sure he's not.
Lorelai: He lived his life the way he thought he was supposed to. He followed the rules taught to him by his non-fishing-non-Barbie-buying dad. He worked hard. He bought a nice house. He provided for my mom. All he asked in return was for his daughter to wear white dresses and go to cotillion and want the same life that he had. What a disappointment it must have been for him to get me.
Luke: I can't imagine anyone seeing you as a disappointment.
