Trivia[]
- You might remember actress Samantha Shelton ("Walker") from Season 2 Episode 6, "Presenting Lorelai Gilmore". She was "Libby Doty", who was also presented at the Debutante Ball.
- Zack proposes to Lane in the diner, witnessed by Babette, Kirk and Luke, among others. Lane says yes and they get engaged.
- It's shown that Hep Alien temporarily broke up after Zack's outburst in He's Slippin' 'Em Bread...Dig? and stopped talking. Lane hangs up posters hoping to be recruited by another band as a drummer. Only Brian and Gil kept playing gigs - they were shown performing at Bat Mitzvah in this episode, where Zack comes to show an effort to get the band back together.
- Rory breaks up with Logan after learning he had slept with two girls while their time apart between Let Me Hear Your Balalaikas Ringing Out and Friday Night's Alright For Fighting - which Rory perceives as cheating, as they weren't officially broken up, even though both acted like they were. She then spends the night at Paris' apartment when she finds out she also broke up with Doyle and threw him out.

- The episode title refers to Brideshead Revisited, an English novel by Evelyn Waugh.
- Lane – I photograph so Asian.
- Lorelai – Yeah, well, I think Ming-Na has that same problem.
- Rory – Don't give me that look. Simplify your prose. You'll still get your point across, and I won't have to publish a newspaper the size of a David Foster Wallace novel.
- Logan – I see you went with Faye Dunaway in Network.
- Rory – And Maureen Dowd "come hither" pumps for good measure.
- Christopher – I got here early and scouted out the best ones. We were more towards the middle, but then two people, I'm pretty sure it was Brigitte Nielsen and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, sat right in front of me.
- Gordon – I will begin by posing a series of questions to our panel. Now, let's begin. I was wondering how the panelists would describe the state of journalistic ethics on a collegiate level in the post-Judy Miller era, and—
- Lorelai – She is smart. She's Anthony Michael Hall in Breakfast Club smart.
- Christopher – Oh, it's my new nanny.
- Lorelai: Oh, does Sienna know about this?
- Christopher – There are waiting lists and psychological tests and blood samples and sworn oaths and dark back-room promises, and every single headmistress looks like Dick Cheney.
- Lorelai – Yeah, I'm fun. I like Teletubbies.
- Gil – Yeah, I get what you're saying. It's a West Hartford Bat Mitzvah, not the Albert Hall.
- Zach – So, uh, I reached a new level on Soulcalibur III.
- Claude – Ooh, I love that dress, Rory.
- Rory – Oh, thanks.
- Megan – Is that Carolina's?
- Rory – Um, no, it's mine.
- Lorelai – Please. I'm looking forward to it. I managed to find Uno and checkers and parts of Battleship and most of the pieces of Candy Land, which I figure we can mix together to create a fabulous new game, Candy Ship Battle Land. War never tasted so good.
- Lorelai – Oh, Full House. You know, I think the Olsen twins weigh less now than they did on that show.
- Megan – He just did a translation of The Bhagavad Gita.
- Walker – Tripp's too short. I'm over the whole Mia Farrow–Woody Allen thing.
- Megan – No way. I was in Biarritz.
- Megan – I look like RuPaul.
- Lorelai – If that's your Donald Sutherland Invasion of the Body Snatchers impression, it's a really good one.
- Zack – I got it at the pawn shop. It belonged to like an Elk or a Moose or something. But it looked cool, and I could afford it, so I got it.
- Christopher – Hi, Mary Poppins.
- Lorelai – I tried discussing Japanese Noh theater with her. She screamed.
- Lorelai – I'm sorry. Uh, yes, that was Dr. Spock turning over in his grave.
- Lorelai – Ah, well, if it isn't da Vinci's daddy.
- Lorelai – Well, school is overrated. Ask Abraham Lincoln.
