Emily: Oh, wait, Rudolph Gottfried.
Lorelai: Another cousin?
Emily: No, a Nazi we knew. I'd forgotten. We stayed with him once in Munich. Nice old man. Interesting stories.
Lorelai: Mom, you-you socialized with a known Nazi? That's despicable. That's heinous.
Emily: No, dear, that was a joke.

Rory: Wait. Shouldn't you be baking?
Lorelai: I don't know. Shouldn't you be knitting?

Lorelai: Where does your mom think you are?
Lane: Oh, uh, on a park bench, contemplating the reunification of the two Koreas.
Lorelai: Not here, skanking to Rancid?
Lane: Wouldn't be included.

Rory: Okay, our town is just weird.
Lorelai: Thank God.

Miss Patty: Rory! Hello. Try a plum. They're better than sex.
Rory: Um, no, thanks.
Miss Patty: Fresh fruit always has such a, tch, a sensuality about it. Are you too young for this?
Rory: Definitely.
Miss Patty: Well what are you here for, honey?
Rory: Oh, well, I just..I just (stuttering).
Miss Patty: Ooh, I see what you're here for (referring to Dean). Well that wouldn't fit in a basket. No, no no no.
Rory: Patty! It's not like that. He's just a person.
Miss Patty: A person?
Rory: A boy-type person.
Miss Patty: Oh, my favorite kind.
Rory: I really don't even know him.
Miss Patty: Oh right, you don't know him.
Rory: I don't.
Miss Patty: You said.
Rory: Please don't say anything.
Miss Patty: I promise I won't tell a single soul that you don't know that young man.
Rory: Thank you.
Miss Patty: You're welcome.

Max: But Rory is not a baby anymore.
Lorelai: Oh, don't say that. She's eight! She's eight, and her favorite hobby is making necklaces out of gum wrappers.
Max: Well, you could try stunting her growth, keeping her in a box, blowing cigarette smoke on her.

Lorelai: Just take the card.
Max: I might frame the card.
Lorelai: Just use the card.
Max: I definitely will.

Lorelai: Plus, it would be great to get, you know.
Sookie: What?
Lorelai: You know.
Sookie: No, I don't.
Lorelai: You know. (indicating the man sitting next to her) He knows.
Sookie: (to the man sitting next to Lorelai) You know?
Man: Yeah, I know.

Luke: Sookie!
Sookie: Hey, I was looking for your paprika.
Luke: Hey, what have I said about the counter?
Sookie: I know.
Luke: How the counter is a sacred space, my sacred space. You don't do yoga on the Dalai Lama's mat. And you don't come behind my counter. Period!
Sookie: I was trying to help!
Luke: (to Lorelai) You bring her again, I want her on a leash! I mean it.

(referring to Cinnamon) She looked like she was sleeping. I thought she was asleep, so I nudged her and she didn't wake. I gave her a push and she fell off the couch, and since I'd just waxed the floor, she went shooting across the room. And then she knocked over the lamp and she still didn't move. I knew it was over. Oh, God, my baby.

Babette

Lane: They said that they rolled her body into a lamp.
(Rory nods)
Lane: Did you laugh?
(Rory shakes her head)
Lane: Did you want to?
(Rory nods)

Michel: You are mourning a cat?
Lorelai: Yes.
Michel: They lick their privates, these cats.
Lorelai: Not the comforting chit-chat we're looking for.

Emily: To see me?
Lorelai: Yes.
Emily: Well, isn't that nice. Come in.
Lorelai: Thanks.
(They walk to the living room.)

Luke: I had a meeting earlier at the bank. They like collars. You look nice, too.
Lorelai: I had a flagellation to go to.
Luke: So, what'll you have?
Lorelai: Coffee, in a vat.
Rory: I'll have coffee also. And chili fries.
Luke: That's quite a refined palate you got there.
(Luke walks to the counter)
Lorelai: (to Rory) Behold the healing powers of a bath.
