Quotes 

• Dan Humphrey : Now, what's so urgent?

  Blair Waldorf : I wanted to tell you... that you were right... about that... thing.

  Dan Humphrey : And now, which thing was that?

  Blair Waldorf : I, Blair Waldorf, need Dan Humphrey's help.

  Dan Humphrey : As a friend and peer, not as an underling.

  Blair Waldorf : [mumbling]  As my friend and peer, not my underling.

  [Dan mocks Blair by aping after her, mumbling and tilting his head] 

• Dan Humphrey : [Blair's busy on the phone]  Sure you're not ready to admit you need my help?

  Blair Waldorf : Never!

  [is misunderstood on the phone] 

  Blair Waldorf : No, never isn't what he transitioned Spain into, it's modernism and don't get caught talking during a test.

  Dan Humphrey : When was the last time you slept?

  Blair Waldorf : Sleep is for the weak. And speaking of which, don't act like I don't know why you're really here. It's because you're avoiding Ben and Serena at the loft.

  Dan Humphrey : No, I'm waiting for you to crack.

• Serena van der Woodsen : [entering Blair's room where Dorota is dressing Blair in front of mirror]  Okay, I try not to meddle in Dorota's duties, but don't you think you're taking it a bit to far?

  Blair Waldorf : No. Marie Antoinette, Scarlet O'Hara. I'm only following in the footsteps of other powerful women who didn't have time to zip.

  Serena van der Woodsen : Or maybe you're just delusional from lack of sleep. Your light hasn't been off for nights.

  Blair Waldorf : Great only need three hours.

  [dismissive wave] 

  Blair Waldorf : Mine happens to be non-consecutive.

  [impatient gesture at her servant] 

  Blair Waldorf : It's all part of my two-year plan. Every minute is allotted to work, school and personal obligations.

  [despite Dorota's best efforts, the zip chafes] 

  Blair Waldorf : Ow! That was my skin!

  Dorota Kishlovsky : Study say not enough sleep makes people psychotic

  Blair Waldorf : [to Dorota:]  Shouldn't you be brushing?

  Serena van der Woodsen : Are you sure your workaholism has nothing to do with Raina and Charles and Valentine's Day?

  Blair Waldorf : [defensively]  They broke up.

  [breaks away from the mirror] 

  Blair Waldorf : And I only have thirty seconds left of being-a-good-friend time. So spill. Where were you last night?

  Serena van der Woodsen : At the loft. Just... sleeping. It's hard to find the time with Dan always there and you here...

  [Dorota checks out Gossip Girl on laptop] 

  Serena van der Woodsen : You know, there's been a lot of buildup.

  Blair Waldorf : With three years spent in the big house, I'd say so.

  Serena van der Woodsen : Obviously, good-friend time has expired. B, please, *consider* a nap.

  [gets up, walks out in a huff] 

  Blair Waldorf : [to Dorota:]  What are you doing? Less reading, more grooming! I'm the only one who can multitask!

• Penelope Shafai : You called us here to Skype?

  Blair Waldorf : No. I called you in to W, but apparently *someone* thought that stood for Waldorf. It's fine. No time to waste on blame.

  Jessica Leitenberg : Oh, thank God.

  [sighs with relief] 

  Blair Waldorf : One does not get promoted without working fifty-hour weeks. Nor does one graduate early without doubling their course load. There are philanthropic positions to secure as well as relations to nurture. Yet, with science so woefully behind in cloning technology, I can only be in one place at a time. Dorota?

  Dorota Kishlovsky : [hands out assignment]  Jessica, Art History essay exam.

  Blair Waldorf : We got the question in advance. You will just sit in front of the proctor and take my dictation over Bluetooth. Penmanship counts. Now, Penelope, gifts for Eric's birthday and my mother's new home in Aix.

  [patronising tone:] 

  Blair Waldorf : And please *do try* to approach my level of taste. New minion...

  Emily : My name is Emily.

  Dorota Kishlovsky : She has no time to care.

  Blair Waldorf : The opera is naming their new board, and I need to be on it, which means I need to meet with Bryn Harold... today.

  Penelope Shafai : [shakes her head]  I don't wanna do gifts.

  Blair Waldorf : I'm sorry, but the time allotted for this interaction is now up.

  [rudely disconnects] 

  Blair Waldorf : Interns! Step in!

  [is unaware that a bemused Donna enters] 

  Blair Waldorf : Now, since the new online blog is moulding minds, I'll do that myself. You... will sort portfolios, draft editorial captions, and research back...

  Donna : Are you talking to me?

  Blair Waldorf : Of course not. Where are my interns?

  Donna : They put in for transfers. Your management style was a little aggressive. One claims she has PTSD and threatened a lawsuit.

  [walks towards door, then turns back] 

  Donna : Oh, good luck. The last assistant who lost her interns, lost her job too.

  Blair Waldorf : [as Dan appears in doorway]  Not to worry. My new intern is already here.

• Blair Waldorf : I think someone Freaky Friday'd me. This can't possibly be my life.
