Rory: Buttercup is a special dog. She's extremely skittish and tends to react badly towards blonde haired females, brunette males, children of either sex, other animals, red clothing, cabbage or anyone in a uniform.
(Luke walks up to them.)
Lorelai: (to Luke) Hey, we just found the doggy version of you.

Lorelai: Class is over!
Max: We're back in session.
Lorelai: Well I didn't raise my hand, so don't call on me!

(after Emily confronts Lorelai about kissing Max at Rory's school)
Lorelai: It was a mistake.
Emily: A mistake? A mistake? Is that what you call it, a mistake?
Lorelai: Well, I tried calling it 'Al', but it would only answer to 'mistake.'

Rory: Well can you make up your mind before French Class because I'd rather you didn't start making out with Mrs. Collins.
Lorelai: Hey, no promises until I see what she looks like!

Sookie: You must really like this guy.
Lorelai: When did you become a relationship expert? You haven't been in a relationship in years. (Big pause, as she realizes what she just said) Wow... zero to jackass in 3.2 seconds.

Lorelai: Where's the silver dangly bracelet?
Rory: I'm wearing it.
Lorelai: Why are you wearing it?
Rory: Because it's mine.
Lorelai: Oh...right... Hey can I borrow your silver dangly bracelet?

Sookie: A zucchini tush?
Jackson: Just a temporary name.
Sookie: You want me to serve my customers a genetically engineered vegetable that's named after a butt?

(taunting Rory after telling her that she saw her mom and Mr. Medina kissing) How's the coleslaw? Good?

Lorelai: So where did you learn to make osso bucco anyway?
Max: Um, from this very old Italian woman who used to live upstairs. She had lost her husband a couple of years before and she kinda looked at me as like a son.
Lorelai: Sweet.
Max: She was.
Lorelai: So an old girlfriend huh?
Max: Yep.

(in between kissing Max as they move towards the bedroom) But what about my required reading? But I won't make the cheerleading squad! Mr. Medina, is this my extra credit work because Missy just had to take a test!

Lorelai

What can I say? Watching someone work makes me hungry. If I hadn't stopped watching 'This Old House' I'd be 500 lbs right now.

Lorelai

Do you have any idea how many people you've hurt? Forget me and my mother--what about Mr. Medina? He likes you, Paris. He compliments you, he holds your papers up for everyone to see. And then you turn around and do something like this to him. What is wrong with you? Forget it, I wouldn't expect you to understand.

Rory
