Blair Waldorf
- Blair Waldorf: Serena, can we talk?
- Serena van der Woodsen: About what? How you tried to publicly humiliate me?
- Blair Waldorf: You know about the dress?
- Serena van der Woodsen: Yeah, Laurel told me, she said it was an accident. Clearly she doesn't know you.
- Blair Waldorf: I'm sorry, I was hurt,okay?You, you blew off our most beloved tradition.
- Serena van der Woodsen: Just get over it,Blair.
- Blair Waldorf: Excuse me?
- Serena van der Woodsen: My whole life I have been bending over backwards to protect your feelings, and you know what? It's not my fault you're so insecure.
- Blair Waldorf: And I'm sure it's not your fault you're so conceited.
- Serena van der Woodsen: I'm just tired of trying to hold myself back so I don't outshine you.
- Blair Waldorf: Oh, my God, can you hear the words that are coming out of your mouth?
- Serena van der Woodsen: It's just the truth. From now on, I'm gonna be who I am and if you can support that and not be threatened and competitive, then great, if not...
- [Serena walks away]
- Blair Waldorf: Don't ever go to high school, Dorota! The girls there are spoiled, stupid, and ungrateful. One snapshot with a socialite and it's all Serena, Serena, Serena!
- Dorota: Some tea will calm your nerves.
- Blair Waldorf: Don't they know that without me they'd never see the inside of a fashion tent? They'd be stuck behind the barricades with PETA. In fact I will leave them outside with PETA, maybe that'll teach them some manners.
- [Blair looks down at her seating chart for the fashion show]
- Blair Waldorf: Something's different. Who put Serena and that Poppy person in the front row and all these socialites? Someone changed this chart, the chart my mother asked me to do, who changed it?
- Dorota: Eleanor said Ms. Jenny change.
- Blair Waldorf: Jenny Humphrey? I guess she didn't learn her lesson last year. Looks like someone needs a refresher course.
- Blair Waldorf: What do you want?
- Serena van der Woodsen: I tried to reach you all night why haven't you returned any of my calls?
- Blair Waldorf: What is there to say? You've only taken over the girls at school and abandoned our oldest tradition to go to my mother's show with a complete stranger.
- Serena van der Woodsen: First of all, I didn't take over the girls at school.
- Blair Waldorf: Are you really gonna pretend like you don't notice what's been going on?
- Serena van der Woodsen: What? These girls are like hummingbirds, they move from flower to flower, they'll be on to someone else next week and then back to you, it's not a big deal.
- Blair Waldorf: And I suppose it's not a big deal that your sitting front row at my mother's show either?
- Serena van der Woodsen: She asked me to do it as a favor.
- Blair Waldorf: Oh and how could you possibly dissapoint my mother? Though you have no problem screwing over your best friend?
- Serena van der Woodsen: Fine I won't go!
- Blair Waldorf: Good!
- Serena van der Woodsen: And then Poppy won't go and her friends won't go and then you can explain to your mother why she has an empty front row, would that make you happy?
- Blair Waldorf: At least I won't have to watch the next episode of the Serena show.
- Serena van der Woodsen: You know I was coming over here to invite you to hang out with us.
- Blair Waldorf: Oh how generous Serena! I should feel so blessed that you would include me in your little group!
- Serena van der Woodsen: You know what Blair I am gonna go to that show and I'm gonna sit front row and I'm gonna enjoy every minute of it!
- Blair Waldorf: Mom!
- Eleanor Waldorf: Good, you saw the changes we made to the chart. Aren't they marvelous?
- Blair Waldorf: That's not quite the word I was going to use.
- Eleanor Waldorf: Jenny had the inspired idea of putting Serena and Poppy Lifton and her friends in the front row.
- Blair Waldorf: But... I already told you, Poppy and her crowd never miss the Marc Jacob's show. And Serena would never watch a show from anywhere but the backstage without me. It's our ritual. None of them will agree to this.
- Eleanor Waldorf: I spoke to Lily. They already have.
- Blair Waldorf: Even Serena?
- Eleanor Waldorf: Absolutely! Marc is going to eat his grunge corduroys.
- Blair Waldorf: And all this thanks to little Jenny Humphrey.
- Eleanor Waldorf: [sighs] The girl's quite a talent. She shouldered most of the workload at the atelier this week.
- Blair Waldorf: How does she manage that after school?
- Eleanor Waldorf: Jenny doesn't... go to school. She got an, uh...
- Blair Waldorf: Independent study?
- Eleanor Waldorf: [snaps fingers] Independent-study thing this semester.
- Blair Waldorf: [incredulous tone] A tenth-grader with independant study?
- Eleanor Waldorf: Mm-hmm.
- Blair Waldorf: I just realized I forgot a book at school.
- [leaves]
- Eleanor Waldorf: [calling after Blair] Have fun, honey.
- [wouldn't understand the irony of her words]
- Blair Waldorf: [passes Jenny] You never learn, do you?
- Jenny Humphrey: Excuse me?
- Blair Waldorf: Great job ruining my seating chart.
- Jenny Humphrey: Your seating chart? Blair, I didn't know.
- Blair Waldorf: Well, now you do.
- [vindictive glance over her shoulder as she leaves]
- Serena van der Woodsen: [as the posse squeals about Serena's magazine appearance] Oh, gosh, I haven't even see that. Blair, where are you going?
- Blair Waldorf: I'll just leave you to your fans.
