- Blair Waldorf: How could you do this to me? Just because I didn't give your geriatric boyfriend a seat doesn't mean you had to tell Sage to sabotage my show.
- Serena van der Woodsen: Save it, Blair! You were so upset that I care more about Steven then your show that you had to destroy my relationship.
- Blair Waldorf: I didn't tell her to take off her dress in front of all of New York City on that fashion runway. You did.
- Serena van der Woodsen: No, I didn't. I would rather avoid the child pornography charges.
- Blair Waldorf: Well, if I didn't tell her to take off the dress and you didn't tell her to take off the dress, then who did?
- [Sage entes]
- Sage Spence: [smug] Nobody. I happened to like the underwear more.
- Nate Archibald: Why the hell do my advertisers think that Vanity Fair is publishing the rest of your serial?
- Dan Humphrey: Because they are.
- Nate Archibald: Dan, we had a deal.
- Dan Humphrey: A handshake is hardly a deal.
- Nate Archibald: [incredulous] Oh my God! I think I'm gonna hit you.
- Dan Humphrey: I told you just last week that it was a bad idea to mix business and friendship. You wanted me to go to Rufus before publishing. And today when he threatned a lawsuit, you freaked out.
- Nate Archibald: I was trying to protect my newspaper.
- Dan Humphrey: What do you want me to say? Vanity Fair is the big time. The more readers I have, the more power I have. It's that simple.
- Nate Archibald: I thought we were in this together.
- Dan Humphrey: We were. But something better came along.
- Nate Archibald: Okay, now I know I'm going to hit you!
- Dan Humphrey: In this public place with witnesses around? Come on, Nate! You know that you and all your other friends would have done the exact same thing in my position.
- Nate Archibald: You know what? Don't bother coming back to the Empire Hotel! Find another place to stay.
- Dan Humphrey: I thought you might say that.
