You've fought for me all year. I've come to fight for you.

Blair

As far as I'm concerned, Serena van der Woodsen doesn't exist.

But even the same characters can start to play new power games. And old stars can cease to shine. S always said she wanted to be left alone. Now she'll get her wish.

Dan: I need your photographic memory and your passion for social upheaval to help me write the book about the Upper East Side. The book I should have written from the beginning.
Georgina: Hm. Nothing like a scorned lover to scorch the earth. I can hardly wait.

Georgina: Dan Humphrey. Come to whisk me away for a rendez vous under the Tuscan sun. You're lucky you're on my free pass list otherwise Phillip might have put up a fuss.
Dan: This invitation isn't about seduction, Georgina. It's about scandal.
Georgina: Can't a girl have both?

Eleanor: That is your third sigh since the seventh arrondissement. Are you having regrets leaving without speaking to Serena?
Blair: Not at all. Those are "I love Paris" sighs.

And the wild cards just keep getting wilder.

Ivy: You sure you want to do this?
Lola: Cece gave it to you. I'm just giving it back.
Ivy: Well thank you. If you ever need anything.
Lola: After Lily sabotaged my mom's defense I just need you to keep our agreement.
Ivy: Take down Lily. I'm looking forward to it.

The French say, "plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose." Sounds romantic. But all it means is the more things change the more they stay the same.

Serena: I'm sorry for how it happened, but I love you Dan. And I don't think that you would have done what you did if you didn't still have feelings for me. And now there's nothing standing in the way of us.
Dan: Serena, there is no us. There's only you. And now that our parents are splitting up I never have to see you again.

Dan: I'm busy.
Serena: I never meant for you to get caught in the crossfire of my battle with Blair. I deleted the video so no one knows about it and no one got hurt. And please don't act like you're innocent here. I mean it was mutual. We both used each other.
Dan: I was trying to escape my own pain and you were trying to destroy your best friend. Those are two different things.

Lily: Well at least an annulment will be better than a messy divorce.
Rufus: Are you sure about this?
Lily: I can only have one marriage. This just isn't one anymore.
