Quotes 

• Serena van der Woodsen : I wasn't supposed to say anything, but you are going to Yale. You got in. In early admission.

  Blair Waldorf : What?

  Dan Humphrey : How do you know that?

  Serena van der Woodsen : Because I declined my acceptance. You're next in line. They're gonna call you in a couple of hours.

  Dan Humphrey : Whoa. You got in.

  Blair Waldorf : You're the Constance student?

  [Turns to minions] 

  Blair Waldorf : Cancel the Nelly Yuki project now!

• [last lines] 

  Blair Waldorf : Put that puppy down, Dorota.

  Dorota : What happened, Miss Blair?

  Blair Waldorf : It's what's going to happen that you should be worried about.

  Gossip Girl : [voice-over]  Not all beginnings are cause for celebration. A lot of bad things begin: fights, flu season, and the worst thing of all...

  Dorota : Uh-oh. Is it war?

  Blair Waldorf : Yes. But this one will be different. I need to wait for my moment, and then I'm going black-ops. Off the radar. No accountability. This war I'm gonna win.

  Gossip Girl : [voice-over]  Wanna be starting something. XOXO. Gossip Girl.

• Roman : [to Blair]  It's all the color of Yale. You see?

  Blair Waldorf : That's just what I need to perk me up. I couldn't sleep a wink.

  Roman : We know. We heard you watching "Gilmore Girls" all night, again.

  Blair Waldorf : Oh, I am so better fit for Yale than that Rory.

• Headmistress Queller : [to Blair]  When I spoke to Dean Berube this morning, he assured me that if the student they've accepted turns them down, you are next in line.

  Blair Waldorf : Dan Humphrey. He's like a cafeteria lady who won the lottery. You couldn't pry that acceptance from his hands with the jaws of life.

  Headmistress Queller : I wasn't speaking about Mr. Humphrey.

• Penelope : [Blair lies berween Is and Penelope playfully listening to their advice]  The devil would say you're already in Yale. You have security. Now more than ever you can do what you want.

  Isabel Coates : [as Blair smiles and looks at her]  And an angel would say all the more reason not to. You have what you want.

  Penelope : [as Blair looks back at her]  You don't have a perfect transcript.

  Isabel Coates : But you don't need one. You're in. Ugh, I hate having to play the angel.

  Penelope : I know. The devil is so much better. So, B, who won?

  Blair Waldorf : [holds out her hand for her cellphone]  Gimme!

  [the other two girls snicker as she gives in to temptation to launch her plan] 

• Blair Waldorf : [on the phone with Serena]  What are you doing?

  Serena van der Woodsen : I'm just reading the Brown catalog. Oh, and I ordered a home dreadlocking kit. Want to meet up later?

  Blair Waldorf : Definitely. Maybe we can get a jump-start on your veganism. Have some celebratory seitan at Angelica Kitchen?

  Serena van der Woodsen : Mm. I can't think of anything better. Or grosser.

  [both chuckle] 

• Blair Waldorf : [to Miss Carr about her assignment]  This is a B.

  Rachel Carr : Yes, it is.

  Blair Waldorf : You're new here, so you don't know how it works.

  Rachel Carr : I have a feeling you're about to explain.

  Blair Waldorf : Second semester seniors get a free pass, like pregnant ladies or 14-year-old Chinese gymnasts. Constance wants their students to get into the best colleges. That's why this free pass exists. The headmistress, if she knew about this grade, she'd rap you on the wrist.

  Rachel Carr : Maybe in time, I'll get in trouble for not inflating grades like everyone else, Miss Waldorf, but until then, I'll give them based on merit.

• Serena van der Woodsen : Well, if you're on a witch hunt, that means you can't be too upset, right?

  Blair Waldorf : Witch hunts are my Valium, Serena. I'm just trying to stay calm.
