Lily van der Woodsen: When you two are done hiding up here, I'm taking you both out for dessert.
Serena van der Woodsen: Can't, mom, I'm busy.
Lily van der Woodsen: But this is important for our family. It'll just be the three of us.
Serena van der Woodsen: Mom, anytime you say it'll just be the three of us, it means you're dating someone new. Whoever it is, I don't care, I'll just see him at the wedding.
Lily van der Woodsen: Fine, fine, then I wil just tell you who it is, because you're going to be seeing him around from now on. It's Bart Bass.
Serena van der Woodsen, Eric van der Woodsen: Bart Bass!
[Serena and Eric say in unison]
Serena van der Woodsen: Mom, you can not date Bart Bass.
Lily van der Woodsen: You just said a moment ago you didn't care who it was.
Serena van der Woodsen: That was before I knew who it was.
Eric van der Woodsen: He only has one facial expression. He scares me.
Serena van der Woodsen: And he raised Chuck. That scares me.
Lily van der Woodsen: Oh, Serena, as usual you're being overly dramatic. I'm not marrying Bart, this is very casual. And regardless, I'm not asking your permission.
