Gillian : [talking about Karen]  She sends me to the coolest places, right? I mean, like yesterday. She sent me to Tiffany's and Barney's. She even sent me to the dog groomer to get the gray out of her poodle. Well... they couldn't because, well, it's a gray poodle. Grace : I'm sorry. She shouldn't have you running errands. Gillian : No, no. It was great. I mean, the moment I mentioned her name at Barney's, people just started kissing my ass. I got a glass of champagne, a personal shopper, and a Percocet. It was awesome. Grace : Well, you should see what happens when you mention my name at The Rug Barn. You get a glass of cold mint tea and a rough kiss from a guy named Misha.

Karen : [to Gillian the intern]  Hi, honey. Sit down! Gillian : What's going on, what's happening, what's this all about? Karen : I've got something tough to tell you. Uh, I'm fabulous, okay? I'm an incredible dresser, I've got buckets of money, I'm a hoot and a half, and I've got a killer rack. Do you get what I'm saying? Gillian : Not really. Karen : Honey, you're not me, and you never will be. Gillian : [pointing to her chest]  Is it the rack? Karen : [laughing and shaking her head]  "It's a big part of it. Now, you're never going to be me, but, you got a good chance to be Grace, and that's nothing to sneeze at, honey, you shouldn't throw it away so quickly." Gillian : But Grace, she's just not us. Karen : Bup-bupbupbupbupbup, watch your mouth, or I'll wash it out with cheap vodka. That's my little girl you're talking about. Now, Grace is a damn good role model. She's bright, she's successful, she's the worst dresser in the whole wide world, she's talented and I look up to her. Honey, why else would I be here? Gillian : You told me it's because you hate being home with Stan and the kids. Karen : [laughing and shaking her head]  It's a big part of it. Gillian : Hey, can I still use the word "honey"? Karen : What? Ohhhhhhhh no.
