Rory and her twin sister, Delilah, are as different as night and day, but they still manage to be close, despite their differences. While Rory is the genius, Delilah considers herself to be average compared to Rory. Despite their very different outl...
"Like your husband is busy and has a great deal of responsibility," Richard said.
"Well, I have responsibilities too," Emily retorted.
"I understand that your social engagements are important," Richard said.
"They're not just social engagements," Emily said.

"Turn around when you talk, would you? I'm not sure how good this microphone is," Emily said.
Richard finally noticed Rory, Lorelai, and Delilah, "Oh."
