Quotes 

• Blair Waldorf : What if we need games? What if without them we're boring?

  Chuck Bass : We could never be boring.

  Blair Waldorf : You say that, but I know you. You're Chuck Bass.

  Chuck Bass : I'm not Chuck Bass without you.

• [first lines] 

  Gossip Girl : [voice-over]  Welcome back, Upper East Siders. After a long hot summer away, I see that it didn't take much time for you to dirty up the clean slates I gave you. My inbox is overflowing, so let's get to the good stuff, shall we? Spotted: Chuck Bass up to his old tricks. Poor B. I guess nothing good lasts forever.

  Chuck Bass : [introduces himself to pretty blonde]  I'm Chuck... Bass.

  Ashley Hinshaw : I know.

  Chuck Bass : I wasn't expecting to see someone like you somewhere like this so early in the day.

  Ashley Hinshaw : I'm in need of refuge. It's too hot.

  Chuck Bass : Oh, it's never too hot.

  Ashley Hinshaw : [smiles]  Care to test that theory?

  Chuck Bass : And what if I have a girlfriend?

  Ashley Hinshaw : [smiles]  Chuck Bass doesn't *do* girlfriends. Where's your limo?

  Chuck Bass : I gave my driver the day off.

  Ashley Hinshaw : Then I guess we'll have to find someplace else.

  [smiles] 

• Chuck Bass : [to Blair]  Is everything okay? What's going on?

  Blair Waldorf : Nothing's going on. Why?

  Chuck Bass : This is a one stop shop and you're acting like everything's last season. I thought you wanted to play.

  Blair Waldorf : I did! I do.

  [Chuck looks at her intensely] 

  Blair Waldorf : I did. The summer was great. We had a lot of fun. Maybe summer's over?

  Chuck Bass : Okay. If that's what you want.

  Blair Waldorf : Is that what you want?

  Chuck Bass : I want you to be happy, however that's achieved.

• Chuck Bass : I'm done living in my father's shadow and that includes his hotel.

• Chuck Bass : [sets up Ashley Hinshaw to get caught out flirting with him]  Uh-uh.

  Ashley Hinshaw : Why?

  Chuck Bass : It's better to wait.

  Ashley Hinshaw : How long?

  Chuck Bass : [sighs]  Let's see...

  [Blair's ready to pounce on the unsuspecting celeb] 

  Chuck Bass : Now.

  Blair Waldorf : [feigns righteous indignation]  What the hell is going on?

  Chuck Bass : [acting]  Blair. I can explain.

  Ashley Hinshaw : I'm, I'm sorry. I, I didn't know he had a girlfriend.

  Chuck Bass : Yes, you did.

  [to Blair:] 

  Chuck Bass : She did.

  Blair Waldorf : [Ashley stammers in self-defense, but...]  Shame on you, Ashley Hinshaw, how could you do that? Pick up someone in a relationship? Have you no pride? No self-respect?

  Ashley Hinshaw : Okay, but I didn't know...

  Blair Waldorf : You may have an Abercrombie campaign, and the security code to Clooney's castle at Lake Coma, but that doesn't give you the right to steal someone's man! Take your American Girl hair and your poreless skin and get out!

  Ashley Hinshaw : Okay, you're crazy!

  [sounds the retreat] 

  Chuck Bass : [after she'd gone]  Hey.

  Blair Waldorf : Hi.

  [chuckles, kisses him] 

  Blair Waldorf : Oh, thank you. It's been three hours. I missed you.

  Chuck Bass : Let me make it up to you. Let's get out of here.

  Blair Waldorf : Or we could stay.

  [chuckles happily] 

• Chuck Bass : [to Nate]  You're missing one key detail. Sleeping with the enemy is hot. Why do you think I had the whole Ivanka thing?
