Episode Quotes |

Gossip Girl: (voiceover) Some families actually do make the Yuletide gay, managing to leave their troubles far away. (cut to the Humphreys) Other families have a merry little Christmas even when their troubles aren't so far away. (cut to the van der Woodsens) Some presents might end up getting returned. Some gifts are for keeps. (cut to Rufus outside the Palace) Other presents come when you least expect them. (cut to Bart Bass proposing) And everyone knows the biggest present comes in the smallest box. (cut to Blair reading Chuck's text message) Then there are those boxes you wish you had never opened. Have a holly, jolly Christmas! XOXO Gossip Girl. | Blair: What's going on?
Howard: We're back for Christmas.
Blair: Well, Roman, you are in for a treat because the Waldorf Christmas is like no other. | Dan: The arts and crafts were impressive, but how did you manage the real snow?
Serena: I'm well connected.
Dan: This is, without question, the best Christmas ever.
Serena: Ever. In the history of Christmas. | Serena: Merry Christmas! Do you like it? Do you think its cheesey?
Dan: No, no it's incredible. How did you do this?
Serena: Well, I had help from my elves.
Dan: Your present is waiting for you at home. But, um, I did bring you a little pre-present.
Serena: This is your story.
Dan: It's the original. Right out of the spiral notebook.
Serena: I'm kinda scared to read it. What happened on October 8th, 2005?
Dan: Um, well, I was accidentally invited to a birthday party where I met a girl. She only spoke two sentences to me but I've never forgotten her.
Serena: Wait, your story is about me? (they kiss; Serena unties the top of her dress)
Dan: Are we really gonna do this?
Serena: Yeah. | Rufus: I guess by turning our backs on these other people, we thought we could fix ourselves.
Allison: Maybe other people aren't the problem. Maybe we changed. | Rufus: My son, the writer.
Alison: Published writer.
Jenny: Yeah, you got your dream girl and you're star of the New Yorker. Maybe you should just die now.
Dan: It's true. I may have peaked. |
