Major Moments of Season 1 Gilmore Girls

And we get to wear uniforms. Then we're having people check you out to see what jeans you're wearing, because everyone's dressed alike, in boring clothes, and just there to learn. Okay. There's academic-minded, and then there's Amish. Funny. Thank you. So I told my mom you're changing schools. Was she thrilled? The party's on Friday. I gotta go. 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 tennis root. Make a noise. Rosemary's Baby? Yeah. Well, that's a great movie. You got good taste. Are you moving? No. Just my books are. My family just moved here, from Chicago. Chicago? Wendy. Oprah. Yeah. Yeah, that's the place. I'm Dean. Hi. Oh, Rory. Me. 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 all the time, you know? So why couldn't women? She says her feminism just kind of took over. Though personally, I think a lot of Demerol also went into that decision. I never talk this much. Well, I better go. Oh, sure. Hey, I have to go look for a job. Okay, good. You should check with Miss Patty. What? About the job. You should check with Miss Patty. She teaches dance. She was actually on Broadway once. I don't really dance much. No, no. She just kind of knows everything that's going on in town. She'll know if someone's looking. Oh, great. Thanks. Hey, what are you doing now? Nothing. Much. I should throw this away at some point. Well, maybe you could show me where this Miss Patty's place is. Yeah, I guess so. I really don't have anything important to... Let's go. Have you lived here all your life? Yes. Well, pretty much. I was actually born in Hartford. Well, that's not far. 30 minutes with no traffic. Really? I timed it. Okay, then. So do you like cake? What? They make really good cakes here. They're very round. Okay, I'll remember that. Good. Make a note. You wouldn't want to forget where the round cakes are. So, how do you like Moby Dick? Oh, it's really good. Yeah? Yeah, it's my first Melville. Cool. I mean, I know it's kind of cliche to pick Moby Dick as your first Melville, but... Hey, how did you know I was reading Moby Dick? Uh, well, I've been watching you. Watching me? I mean, not in a creepy, like, I'm watching you sort of way. I just, I've noticed you. Me? Yeah. When? Every day. After school, you come out and you sit under that tree there and you read. Last week, it was Madame Bovary. This week, it's Moby Dick. But why would you... Because you're nice to look at. And because you've got unbelievable concentration. What? Last Friday, these two guys were tossing around a ball and one guy nailed the other right in the face. I mean, it was a mess. Blood everywhere. The nurse came out. The place was in chaos. His girlfriend was all freaking out and you just sat there and read. I mean, you never even looked up. I thought, I've never seen anyone read so intensely before in my entire life. I have to meet that girl. Maybe I just didn't look up because I'm unbelievably self-centered. Maybe. I doubt it. So, did I ask you if you like cake? Yeah, you did. Oh. Because they have really good cake back there. I'm sorry, but you're going to open. Oh, no. I am so sorry. Paris, please, I'm so sorry. It was an accident. My locker just slipped. I pulled too hard. I didn't mean to... Is there water in that mug? Get away from me. Excuse me. I need Miss Ness' history. It's behind you. Of course it is. Oh, you've got to be kidding me. Seats now, please. Hey, Mary. Okay. We left our projects off on Friday with Mr. Gaynor, so today we will pick up with Miss Skeller. I don't have my project. Miss Skeller, did you have sufficient time to complete your project? Yes. And yet you don't have it done? No. All right. You will receive an incomplete for this project. It's my fault. Who are you? Rory Gilmore. I wrecked her project. Shut up. I don't have a Rory Gilmore. I have a Lorelai Gilmore. That's me. You are Rory and Lorelai Gilmore? Yes, and I wrecked her project. My locker got stuck. Just stay out of this. Do you go by Rory or Lorelai? Whatever. It's not her fault. I need you to pick one. One what? One name. Rory. Fine. Thank you. Rory, you wrecked Farrah's project when? Just before class. Very convenient. No, I did. My locker got stuck, and when I opened it... Stop it. Miss Gilmore, since you say you wrecked Miss Skeller's project, then you may help her fix it. You have until tomorrow. Fine. No. Why not? I don't want your help. But I don't mind doing it. Just stay out of this. What is wrong with you? I'm trying to help you. Well, don't. Ladies. Enough. Miss Skeller, if you don't want Miss Gilmore's help, then you may have until tomorrow. If it's not done, you will receive an incomplete. Is that understood? Yes. As long as you're standing, class, we have a new student. Say hello to Rory Gilmore. Hello, Mary. The Romanists have, with great adroitness, drawn three walls around themselves, with which they have hitherto protected themselves, so that no one could reform them, whereby Christendom has fallen terribly. Who said this? Martin Luther. Very good, Miss Gilmore. And what year did Martin Luther address the Christian nobility? 1520. Very good, Miss Gilmore. Until next time, class. Stay out of my way. I will make this school a living hell for you. See you tomorrow, Mary. The name is Rory. Hey, you. So this whole plaid skirt thing, my idea? My day sucked, too. Promise? I swear on my mother's life. Not yet. Still hugging, still hugging. So I brought us some coffee. Boy, I'm shocked. Triple caps, easy foam. And if that doesn't work, we'll stick our fingers in a light socket. Here. Wow, what do they expect you to get smart all in one day? Oh, they expect a lot of things. So tell me. I don't know. It was just one big, long, scary, tweety, bad eight hours. Add some hairspray, and you've got my day. One of the girls already hates me. The guys are weird. Weirder than other guys? Yeah, they kept calling me Mary. You're kidding me. Wow, I can't believe they still say that. Why? What does it mean? Mary, like Virgin Mary. It means they think you look like a goody-goody. You're kidding. No. Well, what would they have called me if they thought I looked like a slut? Well, they might have added a Magdalene to it. Wow, biblical insults. This is an advanced school. International finance will never be the same, and all because of a lost golfing bet. That's crazy. Well, that's high finance. Well, here we are. Now, what do you know about golf? That it's a good walk spoiled? Well, your driver is the most powerful club in your bag. And as such, it can be your most valuable asset or your greatest liability. To wield it properly requires a precise combination of confidence and humility. Confidence and humility. Got it. There you are. Well, that's pretty good natural grip. Now, line the toe of your left foot up with the ball. That's right. Now, drop this shoulder a little bit. Now, keeping your left arm firm, draw the club back and swing it cleanly through the ball. I'm betting that was wrong. There are no rights and wrongs to the learning process. Try that again. I'm betting that was wrong. I can't believe I hit the ball. Well, it's quite impressive. It landed in the water. Yes, but the splash was quite impressive. This place is so beautiful. I could see just coming here to think or read. But that probably defeats the purpose of the holes with the flags in them. Well, there is something rather serene about walking around here. Do you come here every week? No. When I can, I'm often working on the weekends. Bummer. Isn't it? Hi, Richard. Hello. Can I ask you a question? Go ahead. What do you do? I'm the executive vice president of the German Driscoll Insurance Corporation. Wow. Yes. And as executive vice president, what do you do? Well, it's a very big company, one of the largest in the United States, as a matter of fact. I have a myriad of duties which would bore you greatly to hear about. Oh, okay. I oversee our international division. That sounds important. Well, it rates a parking spot. Do you get to travel a lot? Oh, quite a bit. Lucky. I suspect you have a yen for travel. I'm up to my ears in yens. Any particular place you'd like to go? Hundreds of places. Paris, Rome, London, Prague, Istanbul, Fez. You ever been to Fez? Can't say that I have. I want to go to Fez. I think traveling for a young girl is a very important thing. Your mother never got a chance to travel much. I know. She talks about that all the time. She does? We've got a deal. When I graduate from high school, we're going to go backpacking through Europe together. You know, do the whole hostel thing. I just hope it really happens. Well, we'll just have to make sure that it does. She caught him in the pool house with the tennis pro, not the riding instructor. I had no idea. That committee of yours is not looking at people as much as you think. Why would they? From what you've told me, they're all involved in one nefarious activity after another. It's a conspiracy. It's Peyton Place. Is there more? Can you handle it? I'll steal myself. Okay, Mr. Neville likes all things frilly. Good God, he's my broker. Well, I don't think one will affect the other. Might we barge in? Well, look who's here. Ah, Rory. This is Julian Johnson and Edward James. Call me Ed. Yeah, you can call me Ed, too. It's nice to meet you. Would you care to join us? If Rory doesn't mind us intruding on her time with her grandfather. No, that's fine. Ah, great. So, we hear you're attending Chilton. I just started. That's a hard school. Yes, sir. Rory is an excellent student. Really? 4.0 grade point average. Whoa, that's got maybe. She's going to Fez someday. Fez? What the hell is in Fez? That's for her to find out. All right, forget about the bike. Listen, a D is one grade. It's not the end of the world. You'll catch up. You'll do better. You're of hearty, stubborn stock, my dear. If there's one thing I gave you, it's my stubbornness. I'm not stubborn. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Fine, you're not. Thank you. You're welcome. You can do this, Rory, and I will help you. I will get you through this. Now, put the D behind you. Now, what's next? I have a test on Friday. Ooh, a test. Great. On Shakespeare. The Bard with the Beard. Love it. It's 20% of my grade. It just makes life interesting. Now, what do we have to do to get you an A on that test? Do you really think I can do this? I bet you. A dollar. That's it? That's all my future is worth? One dollar? Well, you did get a D. Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments. Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds or bends with the remover to remove. Oh, no. It is an ever-fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark who's worse unknown, although his height be taken. You're going down. No. Oh, no. Jeez. Such a bad sleeping idea. I'm late. What? Hi. Calm down. I can't calm down. I missed my bus. Sweetie, Mommy can't get up right now. Mommy's been sleeping at a right angle all night. I'm going to miss the test. No. No, you're not. I'll get the keys. We'll go right now. Let's go. I can't take you. You have to. I have a mission. Mom! Wait. Okay. Think. Listen. Here. You drive. What? Yeah. You drive. I'll get a ride from Suki. Take the phone. Take the keys. Go. Are you sure? Go, go, go, go. I'm gone. Hello? Did I leave a set of my notes at your house yesterday? Where are you? I'm driving to school. I need to check something, and I can't find some of my notes. Okay. Hold on. Let me check. I don't see anything. What did I do with them? I don't know. Well, maybe it's downstairs in the store. Maybe. I just... Oh, my God! Are you all right? I just got hit by a deer. You hit a deer? No, I got hit by a deer. How do you get hit by a deer? I was at a stop sign, and he hit me. Oh, my God! Was it a four-way stop? What does that matter? I don't know. I don't know what to ask after you've been hit by a deer. I don't see him. Well, put salt down. Deers love salt. Where am I going to get salt? Do you have a lunch? Lane! Sorry. I don't see him anywhere. What if he's hurt? Rory, your test! What time is it? It's 7.40. No! I'm sorry. Everyone, back to your test. Ms. Gilmore, you're going to have to wait in the library. But what about the test? I'm afraid you've missed the test. No. We start class promptly at 8.05. No. That's when I need people to be in their seats. Please. I'm sorry. It's the rules. But you don't understand. I was up all night studying, and then I missed my bus, so I had to drop you off. Let's discuss this outside. So I'm driving down this road, and I stop, and I get hit by a deer. You hit a deer? No, I got hit by a deer. You don't believe me? I've got antler prints on the side of my mother's car. Rory, come on. No! You have to let me take this test. I'm ready for this test. I know everything there is to know about Shakespeare. Okay, okay. You need to calm down now. I know his birth date and his mother's name and the kind of ink he uses. Deezer. And just what is wrong with you, huh? You already have everything. You already have the grades and the status. What the hell is wrong with you that you have this constant need to be the biggest jerk in the entire world? Okay, let's go. Huh? What's up, quippy? Why so silent? Outside. Now. And for the last time, the name is Rory! Hey. Morning. Good book? I don't know yet. I saw you standing in line, so I thought I'd say hello. Hello. Oh, hey. Uh, thanks for helping get the job at the store. I mean, it's not, it's not a career or anything, but it's got me solvent. Solvent is good. Yeah. Uh, are you always this serious? No. So, uh, how long does it take you to get to school? Um, 40 minutes if the bus driver's focused, but longer if he's trying to win something on the radio. Hey, this bus is going to Hartford. Yeah, I know. But you go to school here. You, you have to get off the bus. Hey, he has to get off the bus. Wait, uh, you're forgetting something. Buses make stops. Goodbye, Lord like Elmore. Independence, Michel speaking. Yes, you are confirmed. Mm-hmm. Goodbye. No, sorry. Sir, I'm just a simple country boy from Texas. I do not understand the French business you're babbling about. Pardon. He knows you are not from Texas. Smile when you say that. Michel, I told you there was going to be a French group here for a couple of days, and it is your job to keep them happy. Lorna, I don't know how many French people you've met over the years, but most of them are insufferable. Really? That is why I left France. Huh. I thought it had something to do with the torches and the villagers. Michel, talk to them. Never. You are giving me that look, aren't you? Your patented do-it-or-something-unspeakable-shall-be-fall-you look. Fine, I shall be French, but I shall not be happy. Then you will be yourself. Good choice. Bonjour, messieurs. Je m'appelle Michel. Si je peux faire quoi que ce soit pour vous aider. Vous nous avez fait une blague tout à l'heure, hein? Très drôle, très drôle, Michel. Kill me now. French fantasies, American treats, and our Italian taste sensations. Well, what do you think? Amazing. Oh, incredible. It is good, isn't it? Well, final touch. Oh, can I do that? Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh, honey, this is a more delicate procedure than you might think. Okay? Okay. Takes an expert hand. Hi. Oh, well, gee, what is that, a dollar? Let me just give you, find you a dollar. You know what, I'll take two. I'll drink one. Tasty and flame-retardant. Very Henry VIII. Oh, we're not into subtle. Good to see you, Lorelai. Oh, good to see you, Mr. Medina. Max. Mr. Medina. Max. Mr. Medina, meet Suki, the chef at the inn. Suki, Mr. Medina. What's the name again? Mr. Medina. I know him, you've said it like a zillion times. Hello. Lorelai, can I borrow you for a second? Uh, yeah, sure. Hey, I'll be right back. Trust me. So? You know, Lorelai, I would love for the ice to thaw. There's no ice. Well, you repeated my full name four times. That's ice. No, that's not ice. It's wintry. I was doing my job when I didn't let Rory take that test. I didn't like it, but I had to do it. I know. And I'd do it again. Okay. But I really do think Rory's a great kid, and I'm gonna do my damnedest to make sure she gets through Chilton in one piece. I appreciate that. And I'd like us to be friends. We are. Me too. Yeah? Yeah. Hey. What, Tristan? I just wanted to say happy birthday. It's not my birthday. No, but it will be. On Friday at 4.03 in the morning, Lorelai, the... What is that? Who else got these? I don't know. Everyone in our class, I think. I have to go. I'll see you Friday, birthday girl. That's her. My parents are making me go. Another obligation party. My life stinks. I have to go to the bathroom. Just say hello first. Go on. I'll hold those for you. Who's that? I think it's her party. Oh. Paris? My parents made me come. Oh, God. Otherwise I wouldn't be here. You believe me, don't you? Oh, come in and greet me. Hello, Tristan. So where's my birthday kiss? It's my birthday. So I'll give you a birthday kiss. What is wrong with you? Okay, I gotta tell you something. I'm madly in love with you. Well, good luck with that. I can't eat. I can't sleep. I wake up in the middle of the night calling out your name. Rory. Would you shut up, please? Rory! Who's your friend? I don't know, but this is Tristan. Excuse me? Tristan Degray, sir. Degray? Are you in a relation to Janlyn Degray? That's my grandfather, sir. Well, I've done business with Janlyn for years. He's a fine man. No doubt he is. Rory, you have very good taste in friends. I approve. Richard. Hmm? I've got Dennis on the phone, and he heard the same thing I heard. Well, one wrong man can always find a friend. He likes me. He's drunk. Come on, let's take a walk. This is stupid. You don't even like me. You just have this weird need to prove that I'll go out with you. That's not liking someone. Why are you fighting this? You're gonna give in eventually. I'm gonna go find my mother. Wow. Meeting your mom. Well, it's a bit sudden, but... Okay, I'm ready. Oh, there you are. I think it's time that you said a few words to your guests. What? Just a little speech to say thank you and tell everyone how it feels to be one year older. Mom, I don't think she's... She's the hostess, Lorelai. This is her responsibility. I am not the hostess. You are. Hey, honey, hold on. This is your party, and these are your guests, and I don't have anything to say to them. So, you give the speech. Rory! Excuse me. What was that all about? Lorelai, your daughter has no manners whatsoever. You should be ashamed of yourself. Okay, how did this become my fault? Throw those out. We won't eat them. Mom, your granddaughter invited you to her birthday party. Please, come. I've already been to a party for my granddaughter, and she humiliated me in front of all my friends. I have no desire to relive that experience. The cheeses must be put in individual bags, please. Mom, come on. Give her a break. You invited all these Chilton kids without even asking her. They're her schoolmates. I assumed they were her friends. Well, you know what they say when people assume things. No, what do they say? That you shouldn't. Very clever. Mom, she didn't want them here. She doesn't like them. Well, I had to invite them. That's just good manners, something that your daughter is sorely lacking. God, you know you're doing the same thing to her that you always did to me. You try to control her, and when that doesn't work, you just shut her out. I'm too tired for your accusations right now. Can we do this tomorrow? I'm just... Here, I'll find you a pencil. You can write down your insults so that you won't forget them. Mom, this is not funny. I have a crushed kid out in the car. What do you want me to say? Everything's fine. It's forgotten. There, I'll see you next week. So I guess the whole pudding thing was just a fluke, huh? Trying to get to know us, easing up on the rules, smudging that bottom line of yours. It was just some weird phase. What, you were on cold medicine last week or something? Oh, so I'm a villain now, is that it? I spent a fortune on this party. I spent days planning it, making sure that every little detail was perfect. The food, the linen, the music. And I did all this for Rory. Well, that's not what she needed, Mom. What she needs is for you to accept her apology and come to her party. That's what she needs. But you don't care what she needs. How dare you? You don't even know what she needs because you don't know her. You've never tried to know her. Just like you never knew me. Oh, I know you. Oh, please. You don't know anything about me. Oh, you'd like to think that, wouldn't you? That you're just some huge mystery to me. Why does Lorelai do that? I don't know. She's a mystery to me. Well, you're not so mysterious, Lorelai. No. No, what am I then? Well, right now, you're very loud and disruptive to the entire cleaning process. For God's sake, what do I have to do to get you to put the damn sheets in individual bags? Fine, I give up. Oh, you give up? If I had a dollar for every time you gave up, then you could pay for this party, couldn't you? That was quite a dance. I seriously don't know what got into him. I do. What? He has a thing for you. No, he doesn't. It's just a game to him or something. He has a thing for you. He does nothing but insult me and make me miserable. He has a thing for you. I don't know how I feel about this whole situation. What do you mean? I don't know. Having my boyfriend defend my honor. It's weird. Uh, boyfriend? What? You said boyfriend. No, I just meant boyfriend in the sense that the whole defending me thing was very boyfriend-y, but only in the broadest sense of the word, which doesn't even apply at all here. You are seriously babbling. I didn't mean that you were my boyfriend. Okay. I don't think you're my boyfriend. Okay. Dean? What? Are you my boyfriend? In the broadest sense of the word way? No, in the real, hi, this is Dean, my boyfriend kind of way. Blame if you want me to be. I do. Okay. So it's settled. Yes, it is. You're my boyfriend. That's the consensus. I'm feeling pretty good about this decision. Well, I'm very glad to hear it. I guess Miss Patty forgot to lock up. I've never really seen you here before. Are all these women really Miss Patty? Yep. She said she's done everything there is to do in show business except set fire to the hoop the dog jumps through. I'll get it. God, this weighs a ton. What do you have in here? I don't know. A lipstick, $5 bill, gum, hairspray, a book. A book? Yeah. You brought a book to the dance? Yeah. Thought there'd be a lot of down time. No, I just take a book with me everywhere. It's just habit. So what are you reading? The portable Dorothy Parker. There's little in taking or giving. There's little in water or wine. This living, this living, this living was never a project of mine. Cheery. Funny, though. Hey. What? Thank you for tonight. It was perfect. You're welcome. Okay, ladies, grab your yoga mats. Oh, my goodness. It's Lorelei's girl. Patty, Rory Gilmore is here. What? She's over here. Asleep with the bag boy from the market. What are we supposed to do? Rory, honey, it's Miss Patty. Rory? Rory, what are you doing here? Miss Patty? Yes, have you been here all night? Oh, no. Dean, wake up. What time is it? It's 5.30 in the morning. Oh, my God. We fell asleep. How could we have fallen asleep? Oh, well, calm down. I'll explain it to your mom. Where's my purse? I got it. Relax. I have to go. Rory. Wait up. I have to go. I'm going with you. We'll explain it. It'll be okay. No, you can't come with me. You shouldn't be anywhere near my house right now. It's not our fault. I know. I just have to get home. Look, please, please let me come with you. No. Rory. I have to go home. Lorelei. Get up. Now. Right now. What? Rory's not home. Rory's what? I sat in that chair all night and I dozed off for one second and the next thing I know it's 5.30 and she's not here. Rory? She's not there. Aren't you listening? Rory? Where's the phone? Call the police. What are you doing? Call the police. Mom, stop it. What are you doing? I'm looking for the phone. What do you think I'm doing? Why don't you ever clean up around here? This is an emergency and you can't even find the phone. What if there was a fire? What if Rory was choking? Mom, stop yelling. Rory is missing. I know that and your yelling is not helping me. We're going. Oh, where? We're going to a movie with Dean. Nothing dirty, violent, or French, please. Are you going to be home late? Well, there's a bit of doubt as to whether or not we'll ever actually get out of the house at all tonight. Suki, please! Okay. I'm here. I'm down. Wow. Hey, where's your coat? It's upstairs. Aren't you going to need it? Oh, well, it got caught around a thing and then when I twist around to get loose then the choking started. Okay. I'm free now. Okay. I'll get you something to wear. I would appreciate that. Bye. Bye, kittens. Huh? Oh, this is beautiful. It goes with the theme of the evening. This is a really nice thing you're doing for me. Anytime, Suki. Last looks. I'll get it. Hi. Lorelai. Sorry we're late. Oh, no problem. Just adds a little more primping time for the ladies. Hi, Jackson. Suki. Hi. Okay. Do you guys want to come in for a minute? Oh, sure. Oh, Lorelai, this is my cousin Rune. Rune. This is Lorelai. Hi. It's very nice to meet you. Can I talk to you a minute? What's the matter? I need a minute alone. Please. Excuse us. What are you doing? That's Lorelai? Yes. Did you see how tall she is? No, I haven't noticed, actually. How could you not notice? She's like a basketball player. Rune, she's a very nice lady. No, I cannot go out with anyone that tall. I mean, God, I can't believe you set me up with that. What, was a bearded lady busy tonight or something? It's just one night, a little dinner. When she came in the door, it never crossed my mind that that was who I had to spend the evening with. I thought it was her East German maid or something. You're being ridiculous. She's not that tall. She's tall enough. Would you keep it down? She's going to hear you. With those big ears, I bet she can. Hey, Rune, you come into town completely unannounced. You eat all my food, you crash on my couch, and I don't say a thing. The least you could do is go out for one night, make some conversation, be pleasant. Who knows, maybe you'll even enjoy it. Why can't we go out, just the two of us? Rune, please. Okay, I think we should be going. Yes, that sounds good. What size shoe do you wear? Uh, size nine. Nine? Wow. I wonder if the mussels are fresh. Um, well, it does say fresh mussels on the menu. Yes, but a lot of times they say fresh and they're not. They're frozen, but they're just called fresh because they were fresh when they were frozen. Plus, if they're not properly stored with the correct drainage, they just sit around in their own excretion. They're just kind of like sitting around in your own tuki. I beg of you, do not order the fresh mussels. But if they're fresh... Even if they're fresh. I wonder where they get their carrots from. The carrot crop this year has been really mealy. So, Rune... Yes? What is that, Rune? What do you mean? I mean, where did Rune come from? I'm from out of town. I thought Jackson told you. He did tell me. I meant the name Rune. You just don't meet a lot of runes, right? It's my dad's name. Oh, where'd he get it? I don't know. From his parents, I guess. Okay, done with that topic. Oh, the waiter. Thank the Lord. What can I get you this evening? I'd like to ask about the mussels. Are they fresh? Yes, they are. And where exactly are your carrots from? Well, is there anything on this menu that isn't French? I'll just have a martini and keep them coming. Thanks.
