DRELLA: Hey, Pepe le Pew, you wanna give me a hand with this?

MICHEL: So either one beast of terror or another?
DRELLA: What the hell is he babbling about?
MICHEL: (quietly, to Lorelai) Don't --
LORELAI: He's afraid of the swans.
MICHEL: (quietly) Thank you.
DRELLA: Of course he is. He's French.
LORELAI: Mmm.
MICHEL: (to Swan Guy) OK, I'll take you to the pond.
LORELAI: Thank you.

RORY: She caught him in the pool house with the tennis pro, not the riding instructor.
RICHARD: I had no idea.
RORY: That committee of yours is not looking at people as much as you think.
RICHARD: Why would they? From what you've told me they're all involved in one nefarious activity after another.
RORY: It's a conspiracy.
RICHARD: It's Peyton Place. Is there more?
RORY: Can you handle it?
RICHARD: I'll steel myself.

EDWARD: Call me "Ed".
JULIAN: You can call me "Ed" too.
(The two men laugh.)
RORY: It's nice to meet you.
RICHARD: Would you like to join us?
EDWARD: If Rory doesn't mind us intruding on her time with her grandfather.
RORY: No, that's fine.
JULIAN: Oh that's good. So, we hear you're attending Chilton.
RORY: I just started.
JULIAN: That's a hard school.
RORY: Yes sir.
RICHARD: Rory is an excellent student.
JULIAN: Really?
RICHARD: 4.0 grade point average.
