I have to have a pre-hayride cup of tea with a future doctor. How do I look? Korean? - Spitting image. - Good.  Bye. Bye. God! You're like Ruth Gordon just standing there with a tannis root. Make a noise. Rosemary's Baby.

 - Yeah. - Well, that's a great movie. You've got good taste. Are you moving? No, just my books are. My family just moved here from Chicago.  Chicago? Windy. Oprah. Yeah. Yeah, that's the place.  I'm Dean. Hi. Oh, Rory. Me. That's-that's me. - Rory. - Well, Lorelai technically. - Lorelai, I like that. - It's my mother's name, too. She named me after herself. She was lying in the hospital thinking about how men name boys after themselves. So why couldn't women? She says her feminism just kind of took over. Personally, I think a lot of Demerol also went into that decision. I never talk this much. - Well, I better go. - Oh, sure. - I have to go look for a job. - Okay, good.
