1
00:00:00,942 --> 00:00:01,142
Gossip Girl here...
2
00:00:01,159 --> 00:00:02,411
Your one and only source
3
00:00:02,412 --> 00:00:05,173
into the scandalous lives
of Manhattan's elite.
4
00:00:05,174 --> 00:00:07,218
It's time to pass the "Gossip Girl" baton.
5
00:00:07,219 --> 00:00:10,081
"Welcome to your future as Gossip Girl 3.0.
6
00:00:10,082 --> 00:00:11,772
The power is now in your hands."
7
00:00:11,773 --> 00:00:13,932
I told Chuck he doesn't
have my heart anymore.
8
00:00:13,933 --> 00:00:15,789
I realized it belongs to someone else.
9
00:00:15,790 --> 00:00:19,748
"As for the rest of my estate,
I leave to you, Ivy Dickens."
10
00:00:19,749 --> 00:00:20,917
I think it'd be best if you left.
11
00:00:20,918 --> 00:00:22,463
I was just gonna say the same thing.
12
00:00:22,464 --> 00:00:24,181
This is my apartment now.
13
00:00:24,182 --> 00:00:25,546
I heard from Ivy's lawyer.
14
00:00:25,547 --> 00:00:26,645
She got a call from the bank saying
15
00:00:26,646 --> 00:00:28,070
there was a cashier's
check waiting for her.
16
00:00:28,071 --> 00:00:29,269
Do you know anything about this?
17
00:00:29,270 --> 00:00:31,503
It was a ruse to get her
out of the apartment.
18
00:00:31,504 --> 00:00:33,490
But you didn't just lie to her.
You lied to me.
19
00:00:33,491 --> 00:00:36,271
I will go back down and
get Mr. Humphrey's bags.
20
00:00:36,406 --> 00:00:39,066
Well, um, actually, this is it for now.
21
00:00:39,067 --> 00:00:40,472
I'm ready to move on with my life,
22
00:00:40,473 --> 00:00:41,395
and I can't do that
23
00:00:41,396 --> 00:00:43,232
with Gossip Girl tracking my every move.
24
00:00:43,233 --> 00:00:45,572
Find a new Serena. Use your influence
25
00:00:45,573 --> 00:00:46,942
to anoint her the new "it" girl.
26
00:00:46,943 --> 00:00:48,444
Please tell me we have an
offer that will at least
27
00:00:48,445 --> 00:00:49,808
keep "The Spectator" afloat.
28
00:00:49,809 --> 00:00:51,609
Yes, I do know Diana Payne.
29
00:00:51,610 --> 00:00:53,389
"The Spectator" is yours.
30
00:00:53,390 --> 00:00:55,718
I'm just here in a support capacity. Deal?
31
00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:56,406
Deal.
32
00:00:56,407 --> 00:00:59,176
They needed a family member
for a blood transfusion,
33
00:00:59,314 --> 00:01:01,218
and I gave the doctors Jack's number.
34
00:01:01,219 --> 00:01:01,835
Jack?
35
00:01:01,836 --> 00:01:04,237
You're covering for who
really gave me the blood...
36
00:01:04,238 --> 00:01:05,143
Elizabeth.
37
00:01:05,144 --> 00:01:06,549
She didn't want you to know.
38
00:01:06,552 --> 00:01:08,479
Elizabeth is not your mother.
39
00:01:08,505 --> 00:01:10,958
Keep looking. Someone donated that blood.
40
00:01:11,144 --> 00:01:12,300
I wanna know who.
41
00:01:14,871 --> 00:01:15,991
And who am I?
44
00:01:21,549 --> 00:01:22,905
X.O.X.O., Gossip Girl.
45
00:01:22,930 --> 00:01:25,730

46
00:01:25,744 --> 00:01:27,403
Even on the Upper East Side,
47
00:01:27,404 --> 00:01:30,732
the laws of physics
dictate that what goes up
48
00:01:30,787 --> 00:01:32,316
must come down.
49
00:01:35,843 --> 00:01:37,054
Even when it feels as if
50
00:01:37,055 --> 00:01:40,750
our feet are a million
miles off the ground.
51
00:01:43,508 --> 00:01:45,916
But when we've hit rock bottom,
52
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:49,400
we hope that some way, somehow,
53
00:01:49,401 --> 00:01:51,558
our fortunes will change...
54
00:01:57,044 --> 00:02:00,343
That a great force will reverse the trend.
55
00:02:11,383 --> 00:02:12,089
Hey.
56
00:02:12,090 --> 00:02:14,689
Sorry. Did I wake you? It's after 9:00.
57
00:02:14,690 --> 00:02:17,150
Yeah, that's dawn on the Upper East Side.
58
00:02:17,171 --> 00:02:18,135
What's going on?
59
00:02:18,136 --> 00:02:20,760
Well, remember how I called
"Page Six" and Perez Hilton
60
00:02:20,761 --> 00:02:23,079
"trash-filled rags for
small-minded individuals"?
61
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,880
Yeah, I think I recall
something along those lines.
62
00:02:25,966 --> 00:02:28,138
Well, I take it back. Sort of.
63
00:02:28,139 --> 00:02:29,450
I still think gossip sites are demonic,
64
00:02:29,451 --> 00:02:31,735
but even I have to admit that
this whole "it" girl thing
65
00:02:31,736 --> 00:02:32,980
has its perks.
66
00:02:32,981 --> 00:02:35,282
Oh, really? Like what?
67
00:02:35,283 --> 00:02:38,788
Like... Lars Von trier
requesting me for an audition?
68
00:02:38,826 --> 00:02:41,233
He's doing a staging of "Dancer
in the Dark" at the public.
69
00:02:41,463 --> 00:02:44,248
No big whoop.
I mean, he's only a bona fide film God.
70
00:02:44,249 --> 00:02:45,366
That's fantastic.
71
00:02:45,367 --> 00:02:49,204
When are we gonna celebrate?
I mean, I'm free right now.
72
00:02:49,541 --> 00:02:51,094
How about after my audition?
73
00:02:51,095 --> 00:02:54,380
It's today, and so I need every
waking moment to prepare,
74
00:02:54,381 --> 00:02:56,582
which includes tracking down
Serena and getting her advice
75
00:02:56,583 --> 00:02:58,439
on what to wear for my debut.
76
00:02:58,928 --> 00:03:00,742
Actually, she's been
kind of distant lately.
77
00:03:00,743 --> 00:03:01,695
I can't figure out why.
78
00:03:01,696 --> 00:03:02,672
Listen, just 'cause you're cousins
79
00:03:02,673 --> 00:03:04,537
doesn't mean you have to be best friends.
80
00:03:04,538 --> 00:03:05,937
My cousin tried to kill me.
81
00:03:07,007 --> 00:03:08,682
Okay, I gotta go. Talk soon.
82
00:03:12,823 --> 00:03:15,111
We have a very busy day ahead of us,
83
00:03:15,112 --> 00:03:16,890
so try to look alive.
84
00:03:16,891 --> 00:03:19,010
We begin with...
just how lonely boy like...
85
00:03:19,011 --> 00:03:21,497
over easy with croissant on side.
86
00:03:21,498 --> 00:03:23,656
Jam with four fruits, not plain strawberry.
87
00:03:23,657 --> 00:03:25,001
Thank you, Dorota. You know me so well.
88
00:03:25,002 --> 00:03:26,658
As I was saying,
89
00:03:26,724 --> 00:03:27,569
or at least attempting to say
90
00:03:27,570 --> 00:03:30,299
before you two started
chatting about condiments,
91
00:03:30,803 --> 00:03:31,986
we will be walking the red carpet
92
00:03:31,987 --> 00:03:33,794
at opening night of "End
of the Rainbow" tonight...
93
00:03:33,795 --> 00:03:35,869
our first public outing as a couple.
94
00:03:35,943 --> 00:03:37,896
So I'm scheduled for a
photo facial at 10:00,
95
00:03:37,897 --> 00:03:39,797
and then Tracy Anderson
will be twisting my body
96
00:03:39,798 --> 00:03:42,777
into positions you couldn't
even imagine at 11:00.
97
00:03:42,778 --> 00:03:46,456
In the meantime, why don't
you go home and shower?
98
00:03:46,854 --> 00:03:49,337
Or... not shower and just use deodorant
99
00:03:49,338 --> 00:03:51,181
as people from Brooklyn are wont to do.
100
00:03:51,182 --> 00:03:53,675
We'll grab cocktails
before curtain, 7:00 P.M.,
101
00:03:53,676 --> 00:03:55,181
where the red carpet,
paparazzi, and at least
102
00:03:55,182 --> 00:03:58,800
one stirring tale of alcoholism
and financial ruin await us.
103
00:03:58,801 --> 00:04:00,813
God. It's good to be back in the saddle.
104
00:04:00,814 --> 00:04:02,007
Sounds like a perfect plan.
105
00:04:02,008 --> 00:04:04,877
Of course it is. I came up with it.
106
00:04:05,029 --> 00:04:06,159
So be on time.
107
00:04:08,874 --> 00:04:10,869
Are you sure it's okay if I borrow it?
108
00:04:10,949 --> 00:04:11,788
Of course.
109
00:04:11,789 --> 00:04:12,930
You have to wear the perfect thing,
110
00:04:12,931 --> 00:04:14,555
not just for the audition,
but for all the people
111
00:04:14,556 --> 00:04:16,740
that will be writing about you going to it.
112
00:04:17,695 --> 00:04:19,006
You know, it's funny, the only person
113
00:04:19,007 --> 00:04:20,844
who seems to not be writing
about you these days
114
00:04:20,845 --> 00:04:21,780
is Gossip Girl.
115
00:04:21,781 --> 00:04:23,453
Hmm. That doesn't bother me.
116
00:04:23,614 --> 00:04:25,196
Really? I mean, she is the crown jewel
117
00:04:25,197 --> 00:04:27,070
of the New York gossip blogs.
118
00:04:27,658 --> 00:04:28,651
Maybe when you were in high school,
119
00:04:28,652 --> 00:04:31,523
but now it seems like
she's kind of irrelevant.
120
00:04:31,708 --> 00:04:34,467
Oh, be careful what you say.
She might be able to hear you.
121
00:04:35,729 --> 00:04:37,549
This is the biggest audition of my life.
122
00:04:37,550 --> 00:04:39,516
Last thing I'm worried about
is some pathetic blogger
123
00:04:39,517 --> 00:04:42,164
in a dark room tethered to a computer.
124
00:04:44,167 --> 00:04:45,532
So are you nervous?
125
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,197
Petrified. Von Trier's a genius,
126
00:04:48,198 --> 00:04:48,999
but he's got a reputation
127
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,499
for being really tough on actresses.
128
00:04:51,618 --> 00:04:52,819
Personally, I think directors wield
129
00:04:52,820 --> 00:04:56,135
a little bit too much power,
so even if he's tough,
130
00:04:56,595 --> 00:04:57,812
no tears from me.
131
00:04:57,821 --> 00:04:59,719
Well, you seem so confident today,
132
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,362
that nothing could make you
cry, even if it should.
133
00:05:04,632 --> 00:05:07,107
Uh, well, thank you so much
for this dress, Serena.
134
00:05:07,108 --> 00:05:08,027
I really appreciate it.
135
00:05:08,028 --> 00:05:09,125
Of course. Break a leg.
136
00:05:09,126 --> 00:05:10,005
Thanks.
137
00:05:19,139 --> 00:05:20,901
Hmm. What's with the tie?
138
00:05:21,404 --> 00:05:23,649
Oh, it's a... it's a Blair thing.
139
00:05:23,970 --> 00:05:25,806
I find it's best to pick my battles.
140
00:05:25,807 --> 00:05:26,859
What's with the tool belt?
141
00:05:26,860 --> 00:05:28,299
Oh, it's a handyman thing.
142
00:05:28,300 --> 00:05:29,622
I can see that, and as happy as I am
143
00:05:29,623 --> 00:05:31,947
to have a chair that finally rolls, uh,
144
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,527
don't you think it's time
for you to head home?
145
00:05:35,922 --> 00:05:36,890
I am home.
146
00:05:37,933 --> 00:05:40,376
No, I mean your other home...
the one with your wife in it.
147
00:05:40,618 --> 00:05:43,192
Usually, you two are the king
and queen of reconciliation.
148
00:05:43,193 --> 00:05:44,860
Shouldn't you be forgiving
each other right now
149
00:05:44,861 --> 00:05:46,074
in the midst of a teary embrace?
150
00:05:46,075 --> 00:05:49,423
I know. I don't know how I let
things get so out of hand.
151
00:05:50,065 --> 00:05:51,819
Fix 'em, like the chair.
152
00:05:51,820 --> 00:05:54,101
It's not that simple.
I feel as though Lily and I
153
00:05:54,102 --> 00:05:56,218
have stopped being honest with each other.
154
00:05:56,669 --> 00:05:58,326
So tell her the truth.
155
00:05:58,452 --> 00:05:59,788
Well, that's the thing. I...
156
00:06:00,164 --> 00:06:04,209
I'm not sure that I haven't
been lying this whole time
157
00:06:04,635 --> 00:06:06,904
to myself as much as to her.
158
00:06:07,270 --> 00:06:08,640
I mean, when Lily and I first got married,
159
00:06:08,641 --> 00:06:10,727
I threw myself into her world.
160
00:06:10,816 --> 00:06:12,155
I became a plus one
161
00:06:13,170 --> 00:06:15,276
at her galas and in life.
162
00:06:15,838 --> 00:06:18,970
But in the process, I lost myself
163
00:06:19,757 --> 00:06:21,108
and what's important to me.
164
00:06:21,999 --> 00:06:23,267
We never managed to build a life together
165
00:06:23,268 --> 00:06:25,740
that included both of us.
166
00:06:27,291 --> 00:06:28,421
And I'm tired of it.
167
00:06:29,936 --> 00:06:31,546
But now you're living separately,
168
00:06:31,547 --> 00:06:32,563
stuck in a stalemate.
169
00:06:32,564 --> 00:06:34,863
That isn't exactly the ideal alternative.
170
00:06:35,006 --> 00:06:37,606
Yeah, but at least I'm
regaining my identity.
171
00:06:39,022 --> 00:06:41,222
I know you're happy with Blair, and
172
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,890
maybe in time, you'll learn
to love wearing this tie.
173
00:06:45,521 --> 00:06:47,170
But don't lose sight of yourself.
174
00:06:53,352 --> 00:06:54,567
Good morning.
175
00:06:55,912 --> 00:06:57,808
Late because of Lola, I presume?
176
00:06:58,278 --> 00:06:59,258
I wish.
177
00:06:59,328 --> 00:07:01,388
Trouble in paradise? I hope it isn't me.
178
00:07:01,389 --> 00:07:02,278
It isn't.
179
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,780
Good, 'cause that was a lie.
I hope it is me.
180
00:07:05,410 --> 00:07:07,872
Ooh, I've got a smile. Watch out.
181
00:07:07,873 --> 00:07:09,913
I may take it the wrong way.
Could be trouble.
182
00:07:09,914 --> 00:07:12,119
Oh, yeah, yeah, go ahead and pile it on.
183
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,799
No, there's just a lot going on right now.
184
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,653
My girlfriend is totally
caught up in her new life.
185
00:07:16,825 --> 00:07:18,521
Serena and I are not on good terms.
186
00:07:18,522 --> 00:07:20,443
I haven't seen Dan in forever.
187
00:07:20,483 --> 00:07:21,390
My best friend's on a mission
188
00:07:21,391 --> 00:07:23,409
that I know is only gonna get him hurt.
189
00:07:23,698 --> 00:07:24,808
Chuck's on a mission?
190
00:07:24,818 --> 00:07:26,793
Yeah, he's looking for a missing relative.
191
00:07:27,002 --> 00:07:28,528
And if you have to look that hard,
192
00:07:28,579 --> 00:07:30,311
it's never the answer you wanna find.
193
00:07:31,994 --> 00:07:32,538
You know, I better run.
194
00:07:32,539 --> 00:07:34,460
I'm gonna be late for my 11:00.
195
00:07:46,028 --> 00:07:47,688
Jack, it's me.
196
00:07:48,751 --> 00:07:51,350
I just heard from Nate that
Chuck's still on the hunt.
197
00:07:51,351 --> 00:07:52,582
We have to stop him snooping around,
198
00:07:52,583 --> 00:07:55,135
or sooner or later, he's
going to find out the truth.
199
00:07:56,845 --> 00:07:57,798
Hang on.
200
00:07:59,194 --> 00:08:01,573
Serena is holding my site hostage.
201
00:08:01,574 --> 00:08:02,936
If you don't get it back for me,
202
00:08:02,937 --> 00:08:04,424
I'll tell everyone the secret
203
00:08:04,425 --> 00:08:07,203
that made you afraid of
me in the first place.
204
00:08:18,956 --> 00:08:19,865
Hello.
205
00:08:19,933 --> 00:08:21,595
I'm Lola Rhodes.
I'm here to read for the part of...
206
00:08:21,596 --> 00:08:23,630
Your audition has been canceled.
207
00:08:24,173 --> 00:08:26,577
What? No, I got a call yesterday.
208
00:08:26,578 --> 00:08:29,029
There must be some mistake.
I don't understand.
209
00:08:29,030 --> 00:08:30,850
Oh, maybe this "Gossip Girl" blast
210
00:08:30,851 --> 00:08:32,463
will help clarify it for you.
211
00:08:32,737 --> 00:08:34,477
Lola is a diva.
212
00:08:34,503 --> 00:08:37,941
Wannabe actress Lola Rhodes
was overhead bragging,
213
00:08:37,942 --> 00:08:40,020
"Everyone knows the star's the thing.
214
00:08:40,021 --> 00:08:41,873
"Real actors don't take direction.
215
00:08:41,874 --> 00:08:44,600
Some are just better at
pretending they do."
216
00:08:47,510 --> 00:08:48,515
You can go.
217
00:09:20,850 --> 00:09:21,775
Rufus?
218
00:09:24,709 --> 00:09:26,963
It seems I've made too much salad.
219
00:09:30,367 --> 00:09:32,283
Fine. I, uh, I had it delivered,
220
00:09:32,284 --> 00:09:34,930
but it's a generous
serving, enough for two,
221
00:09:34,931 --> 00:09:37,156
and I just happened to find
myself in this neighborhood,
222
00:09:37,157 --> 00:09:40,005
and I thought you might
like some leftovers.
223
00:09:40,188 --> 00:09:42,779
You just happened to find
yourself in this neighborhood?
224
00:09:44,336 --> 00:09:45,605
I may have ordered a car
225
00:09:45,606 --> 00:09:48,169
with no other destination than this one.
226
00:09:49,686 --> 00:09:51,790
Please, take it.
227
00:09:53,074 --> 00:09:54,057
I will eat your roughage,
228
00:09:54,058 --> 00:09:56,474
but we both know that's
not why you're here.
229
00:09:56,475 --> 00:09:58,506
Why can't you just admit
you wanted to see me?
230
00:09:59,411 --> 00:10:01,750
Okay, fine. I missed you.
231
00:10:01,957 --> 00:10:02,917
I said it.
232
00:10:04,418 --> 00:10:06,101
Rufus, the Upper East Side
233
00:10:06,102 --> 00:10:08,406
holds all the comforts I desire...
234
00:10:08,925 --> 00:10:10,635
clean sidewalks, Bergdorf Goodman,
235
00:10:10,636 --> 00:10:14,317
and people whose job it is to open doors.
236
00:10:15,175 --> 00:10:16,534
But there is no you.
237
00:10:17,985 --> 00:10:21,036
And you're the only comfort I really need.
238
00:10:22,199 --> 00:10:23,673
And the apartment just...
239
00:10:24,127 --> 00:10:26,865
It just doesn't seem like
a home without you in it.
240
00:10:26,866 --> 00:10:30,524
And in my abundance of
time alone this week,
241
00:10:31,689 --> 00:10:33,210
I had a chance to think,
242
00:10:33,703 --> 00:10:37,571
what would you say to me
selling the apartment
243
00:10:37,572 --> 00:10:41,149
and us finding our own place...
one that fits us both?
244
00:10:41,384 --> 00:10:44,071
Really? You'd do that?
You love that apartment.
245
00:10:44,389 --> 00:10:46,494
I like that apartment a lot,
246
00:10:47,837 --> 00:10:49,278
but I love you.
247
00:10:50,304 --> 00:10:51,978
And I want us to work.
248
00:10:54,453 --> 00:10:55,399
Me, too.
249
00:11:00,599 --> 00:11:02,192
So were you a hit?
250
00:11:02,553 --> 00:11:03,491
Hardly.
251
00:11:04,021 --> 00:11:06,393
A nasty "Gossip Girl" blast
landed before I did.
252
00:11:06,394 --> 00:11:08,313
I didn't even get a chance to read.
253
00:11:08,652 --> 00:11:10,261
You know, I really don't get it.
254
00:11:10,262 --> 00:11:12,280
She's radio silent and then
decides to go after me
255
00:11:12,281 --> 00:11:14,025
on the most important day of my life?
256
00:11:14,026 --> 00:11:15,281
Yeah. Pfft. I don't know.
257
00:11:15,282 --> 00:11:18,119
Gossip Girl works in mysterious ways.
258
00:11:18,381 --> 00:11:21,475
I guess she isn't so
irrelevant after all, huh?
259
00:11:23,135 --> 00:11:23,984
Hey...
260
00:11:24,671 --> 00:11:26,627
You didn't happen to mention
anything about our conversation
261
00:11:26,628 --> 00:11:27,850
about Lars Von Trier, did you?
262
00:11:27,851 --> 00:11:29,786
I mean, not that I even
said anything bad, but...
263
00:11:29,787 --> 00:11:31,575
No, not... not a word.
264
00:11:32,596 --> 00:11:33,614
Okay.
265
00:11:34,374 --> 00:11:37,175
Well, I guess I'll just act
like I'm not totally mortified
266
00:11:37,176 --> 00:11:39,111
and try and get on with my life.
267
00:11:39,496 --> 00:11:41,743
Hopefully, this is the
last I'm hearing from her.
268
00:11:42,086 --> 00:11:43,553
Yeah, hopefully.
269
00:11:44,371 --> 00:11:45,616
I'll talk to you later.
270
00:11:52,242 --> 00:11:53,429
Isn't it exciting?
271
00:11:53,765 --> 00:11:56,863
Finally meeting the infamous
Gossip Girl in the flesh.
272
00:12:06,516 --> 00:12:07,447
Hi. How many?
273
00:12:07,448 --> 00:12:09,495
Hi. Two, please. Thanks.
274
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,862
Why did we have to come all
the way out here lunch?
275
00:12:11,863 --> 00:12:13,103
Actually, I was hoping
we could go next door
276
00:12:13,104 --> 00:12:13,909
to the Community Garden.
277
00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:15,847
They're having a tree-planting event.
278
00:12:15,848 --> 00:12:17,621
My friend Alexis is covering
it for McSweeney's,
279
00:12:17,622 --> 00:12:19,884
so she wanted to grab a
photo of us going green.
280
00:12:19,885 --> 00:12:22,486
What? No.
281
00:12:22,689 --> 00:12:24,171
Just because a tree grows in Brooklyn
282
00:12:24,172 --> 00:12:25,788
does not mean I have to plant it.
283
00:12:25,789 --> 00:12:27,500
I'm not going green. I'm going home.
284
00:12:27,501 --> 00:12:28,087
Wait a second. Wait a second.
285
00:12:28,088 --> 00:12:30,357
Look, we can't be photographed.
286
00:12:30,358 --> 00:12:32,687
We are coming out tonight
as a couple at the theater.
287
00:12:32,688 --> 00:12:35,535
So we can come out now in
Brooklyn and then uptown later.
288
00:12:35,536 --> 00:12:37,042
I mean, it's...
it's the best of both worlds.
289
00:12:37,043 --> 00:12:38,728
Dan, a couple only has one chance
290
00:12:38,729 --> 00:12:40,106
to make a first impression on the world,
291
00:12:40,107 --> 00:12:41,756
and I'm not doing it
knee-deep in fertilizer
292
00:12:41,757 --> 00:12:43,157
looking like Vanessa whatshername.
293
00:12:43,158 --> 00:12:45,367
Look, Blair, I'm not
trying to be difficult,
294
00:12:45,393 --> 00:12:47,083
but I don't wanna just melt into your world
295
00:12:47,084 --> 00:12:49,582
and lose myself completely.
We need a balance.
296
00:12:49,583 --> 00:12:51,262
But I just spent the last year of my life
297
00:12:51,263 --> 00:12:53,208
playing Marie Antoinette
to Prince Possessive.
298
00:12:53,209 --> 00:12:55,960
I'm not going from Habsburg to Williamsburg.
I wanna be me.
299
00:12:55,961 --> 00:12:57,210
And I wanna be me.
300
00:12:57,211 --> 00:12:59,275
I'm sorry. We didn't mean to eavesdrop,
301
00:12:59,276 --> 00:13:01,305
but we couldn't help but
overhear your argument.
302
00:13:01,306 --> 00:13:03,946
We've had the same fight
over a million times.
303
00:13:03,947 --> 00:13:05,655
I'm die-hard Upper East Side.
304
00:13:05,656 --> 00:13:07,131
And I'm as Queens as acrylic nails.
305
00:13:07,132 --> 00:13:09,878
So we know a thing or two about
settling our differences.
306
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:12,952
Wait. It's you. You're Julian Tepper,
307
00:13:12,953 --> 00:13:14,602
and you're Jenna Gribbon.
308
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:17,127
You're like the Brangelina
of the five boroughs.
309
00:13:17,128 --> 00:13:18,665
How you doing? Hi. I'm Blair Waldorf.
310
00:13:18,666 --> 00:13:19,957
Dan.
Jenna.
311
00:13:20,423 --> 00:13:21,401
Dan.
312
00:13:21,564 --> 00:13:23,902
So how did you find a solution?
What was your compromise?
313
00:13:23,903 --> 00:13:25,764
Well, that's a long story.
314
00:13:25,979 --> 00:13:29,007
Well, we have time. Lunch?
315
00:13:34,949 --> 00:13:36,338
I'm sorry about your audition.
316
00:13:36,339 --> 00:13:38,111
I know how badly you wanted the part.
317
00:13:38,274 --> 00:13:39,307
You'll get the next one, okay?
318
00:13:39,308 --> 00:13:41,371
Have you ever wondered who
Gossip Girl actually is?
319
00:13:41,372 --> 00:13:43,012
Like, have you ever tried to find her?
320
00:13:43,013 --> 00:13:44,335
Yeah, of course. You know,
321
00:13:44,336 --> 00:13:46,576
but she keeps her identity
pretty well hidden.
322
00:13:46,788 --> 00:13:49,714
I have a theory... Serena.
323
00:13:49,886 --> 00:13:51,195
Serena... what?
324
00:13:51,196 --> 00:13:52,631
Serena is Gossip Girl.
325
00:13:53,356 --> 00:13:54,826
There's no use denying it.
326
00:13:54,827 --> 00:13:57,518
I know you're the acting
Queen of Cyberspace.
327
00:13:57,913 --> 00:13:59,686
I also know that the real Gossip Girl
328
00:13:59,687 --> 00:14:02,022
has been badgering you to return her site.
329
00:14:02,490 --> 00:14:04,861
I should warn you that she's
prepared to go to great lengths
330
00:14:04,862 --> 00:14:07,510
to get what she wants,
but this doesn't matter,
331
00:14:07,651 --> 00:14:10,330
because I want to help you
stay on as Gossip Girl.
332
00:14:10,578 --> 00:14:12,237
I want to protect your identity
333
00:14:12,238 --> 00:14:14,149
and help you keep the site.
334
00:14:14,668 --> 00:14:16,494
Lola, that's ludicrous.
Serena's hated Gossip Girl
335
00:14:16,495 --> 00:14:18,312
since we were freshmen in high school.
336
00:14:18,313 --> 00:14:19,315
I mean, you can read for yourself
337
00:14:19,316 --> 00:14:20,858
all the negative posts about her.
338
00:14:20,859 --> 00:14:23,136
Well, of course Gossip Girl
has to slam Serena sometimes.
339
00:14:23,137 --> 00:14:25,312
It'd be pretty obvious if she didn't.
340
00:14:25,559 --> 00:14:27,480
Why would you wanna help me?
341
00:14:27,569 --> 00:14:29,547
Maybe I'll be helping myself, too.
342
00:14:29,742 --> 00:14:32,735
If you remember, I have a
history with Gossip Girl.
343
00:14:32,736 --> 00:14:33,925
Well, a history with Gossip Girl
344
00:14:33,926 --> 00:14:35,524
means you have something to hide.
345
00:14:35,525 --> 00:14:37,246
I'm a woman who has lived.
346
00:14:37,498 --> 00:14:39,293
I have plenty to hide.
347
00:14:39,713 --> 00:14:41,846
But if you continue your
reign as Gossip Girl,
348
00:14:42,130 --> 00:14:43,156
we both win.
349
00:14:43,157 --> 00:14:45,608
Well, so far you've only
told me how you do.
350
00:14:45,853 --> 00:14:47,154
Lola, look, I know you're an actress,
351
00:14:47,155 --> 00:14:48,438
and there's a certain amount of quirkiness
352
00:14:48,439 --> 00:14:50,763
that I'm supposed to find
charming, but this is too much.
353
00:14:50,764 --> 00:14:52,797
You have to stop letting
your imagination run wild.
354
00:14:52,798 --> 00:14:55,317
Come on. We have a reservation
at Masa in 15 minutes.
355
00:14:55,318 --> 00:14:56,403
Actually, I don't think I can go.
356
00:14:56,404 --> 00:14:58,752
I have to fix the situation
with my audition.
357
00:14:58,998 --> 00:15:01,304
I have a great deal of
influence in New York media.
358
00:15:01,827 --> 00:15:03,536
I'll make sure that your
version of "Gossip Girl"
359
00:15:03,537 --> 00:15:05,846
is the most popular web site in town.
360
00:15:06,187 --> 00:15:07,259
I'm sorry, Nate.
361
00:15:07,580 --> 00:15:09,257
Wait. So what are you gonna
do, call the director?
362
00:15:09,258 --> 00:15:10,298
Or just spend the whole afternoon
363
00:15:10,299 --> 00:15:12,260
obsessing about conspiracy theories?
364
00:15:12,261 --> 00:15:14,056
Seriously, Lola, it needs to stop.
365
00:15:14,617 --> 00:15:16,232
I have to think about it.
366
00:15:16,412 --> 00:15:17,654
Don't take too long.
367
00:15:18,083 --> 00:15:19,523
Serena's Gossip Girl.
368
00:15:19,769 --> 00:15:21,447
Just wait. I'm gonna prove it to you.
369
00:15:22,839 --> 00:15:24,579
I'll be at "The Spectator" after lunch.
370
00:15:24,580 --> 00:15:26,087
You can give me your answer then.
371
00:15:26,398 --> 00:15:27,432
Happy blogging.
372
00:15:34,454 --> 00:15:37,298
And that is the story of how I got Julian
373
00:15:37,299 --> 00:15:39,878
and his Prada loafers to Astoria.
374
00:15:39,972 --> 00:15:42,082
And now I love pork buns. Who knew?
375
00:15:42,954 --> 00:15:44,401
Well, thank you for having lunch with us.
376
00:15:44,402 --> 00:15:45,543
You've really given us hope.
377
00:15:45,544 --> 00:15:47,536
Well, meals are easier to negotiate,
378
00:15:47,537 --> 00:15:49,123
but what about your social life?
379
00:15:49,124 --> 00:15:51,175
Actually, every month we host a salon.
380
00:15:51,176 --> 00:15:52,544
Good food, good wine.
381
00:15:52,545 --> 00:15:54,345
Intellectual discussion.
382
00:15:54,346 --> 00:15:56,724
Not to brag, but people fight for invites.
383
00:15:56,725 --> 00:15:57,411
You should come.
384
00:15:57,412 --> 00:16:00,149
Agyness Deyn and Sara Sophie
Flicker came to the last one,
385
00:16:00,150 --> 00:16:02,967
and Mario Carbone and Rich
Torrisi did the menu,
386
00:16:02,968 --> 00:16:04,689
and then we screened "My Man Godfrey."
387
00:16:05,740 --> 00:16:08,614
Carole Lombard is my spirit animal.
388
00:16:08,737 --> 00:16:10,567
We'll absolutely be at the next one.
389
00:16:10,965 --> 00:16:13,439
Guys, this has been fun,
but we've gotta go.
390
00:16:13,576 --> 00:16:14,187
Nice meeting you.
391
00:16:14,188 --> 00:16:16,251
Nice to meet you, too.
Very nice to meet you.
392
00:16:16,252 --> 00:16:17,247
Dan. Yeah.
393
00:16:22,390 --> 00:16:23,705
I thought they were cute.
394
00:16:24,529 --> 00:16:26,047
I wonder if it'll last.
395
00:16:27,188 --> 00:16:28,655
To be transported back
to the vicious circle.
396
00:16:28,656 --> 00:16:32,665
It's so romantic and... and
so au courant, so...
397
00:16:32,666 --> 00:16:34,515
it's the perfect combination of you and me.
398
00:16:35,223 --> 00:16:37,536
It's as if the Angelika was on 75th Street.
399
00:16:37,537 --> 00:16:39,460
Let's forget the garden and the theater
400
00:16:39,461 --> 00:16:42,233
and just host a salon for
our official coming out.
401
00:16:42,234 --> 00:16:44,778
Its only fault is that I
didn't think of it myself.
402
00:16:45,291 --> 00:16:47,676
Come on! We have planning to do.
403
00:16:50,686 --> 00:16:51,212
Yeah, I like that one.
404
00:16:51,213 --> 00:16:52,751
Just tell him to put it in color, please.
405
00:16:52,752 --> 00:16:53,939
Thanks.
406
00:16:55,613 --> 00:16:57,394
Hey, have you seen Diana?
407
00:16:57,515 --> 00:16:59,815
Uh, yeah, she's downstairs, in her office.
408
00:17:01,171 --> 00:17:02,866
So are we still in a fight?
409
00:17:03,151 --> 00:17:06,522
Uh, well, you did fire me, but, um,
410
00:17:06,523 --> 00:17:08,652
it actually turned out for the best.
411
00:17:09,506 --> 00:17:10,006
I don't know about you,
412
00:17:10,007 --> 00:17:12,096
but I'd really like to put it behind us.
413
00:17:13,354 --> 00:17:14,372
Yeah, me, too.
414
00:17:15,157 --> 00:17:18,075
So... what's new in your life?
415
00:17:18,076 --> 00:17:19,698
Uh, recently, I've had my hands full
416
00:17:19,699 --> 00:17:21,397
with your long-lost cousin.
417
00:17:21,769 --> 00:17:22,414
What do you mean?
418
00:17:22,415 --> 00:17:23,795
Ever since Lola hit the "it" girl radar,
419
00:17:23,796 --> 00:17:26,236
she's been completely M.I.A.,
and I didn't think
420
00:17:26,237 --> 00:17:27,660
she was the type of girl
to get caught up in it,
421
00:17:27,661 --> 00:17:30,433
but today there was this
"Gossip Girl" blast about her,
422
00:17:30,434 --> 00:17:32,121
and she just kinda lost it...
423
00:17:32,122 --> 00:17:34,974
All worked up, theories
about who Gossip Girl is.
424
00:17:35,053 --> 00:17:36,776
Well, who does she think it is?
425
00:17:37,187 --> 00:17:38,378
You, actually.
426
00:17:38,379 --> 00:17:39,452
What?
Yeah.
427
00:17:39,453 --> 00:17:41,763
That's insane.
What have I ever done to her?
428
00:17:41,764 --> 00:17:44,573
No, I know. It's crazy.
She's just upset her audition,
429
00:17:44,574 --> 00:17:45,957
looking for someone to blame.
430
00:17:45,958 --> 00:17:48,179
Well, tell her not to look at me.
431
00:17:48,347 --> 00:17:50,480
I really hope this ride doesn't change her.
432
00:17:50,481 --> 00:17:52,240
I mean, she was such a sweet girl.
433
00:17:54,212 --> 00:17:56,009
Hey, it was, um, good to talk to you.
434
00:17:56,010 --> 00:17:56,946
I'm... I'm gonna go find Diana.
435
00:17:56,947 --> 00:17:58,234
Yeah, you, too.
436
00:18:02,509 --> 00:18:05,441
Good news, Jack.
I'm about to make a deal with Serena,
437
00:18:05,909 --> 00:18:07,811
and as long as she controls
the "Gossip Girl" web site,
438
00:18:07,812 --> 00:18:10,884
no one will ever find out what I
did for Chuck at the hospital.
439
00:18:10,885 --> 00:18:12,396
Uh-oh, Diana.
440
00:18:12,397 --> 00:18:13,019
Bye.
441
00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:16,911
Looks like mischief is
written into your D.N.A.
442
00:18:20,193 --> 00:18:21,527
Okay, now that takes care of the flowers.
443
00:18:21,528 --> 00:18:23,207
What glasses shall we use?
444
00:18:24,081 --> 00:18:25,192
Mason jars.
445
00:18:25,193 --> 00:18:25,885
There is something to be said
446
00:18:25,886 --> 00:18:28,222
about that whole farm-to-table phenom.
447
00:18:28,223 --> 00:18:29,696
Uh, wine?
448
00:18:29,727 --> 00:18:30,612
French.
449
00:18:31,295 --> 00:18:32,292
Theme?
450
00:18:32,486 --> 00:18:34,261
Well, I have a thing for Du Maurier,
451
00:18:34,262 --> 00:18:37,506
and you hanker for T.S. Eliot.
452
00:18:37,769 --> 00:18:39,143
We both love Radiohead.
453
00:18:40,735 --> 00:18:41,756
"London Calling"...
454
00:18:41,757 --> 00:18:43,635
An ode to the Brits. It's perfect.
455
00:18:43,636 --> 00:18:45,339
April Bloomfield will cater.
456
00:18:45,340 --> 00:18:47,773
I do secretly love pub food
when it's made with foie.
457
00:18:47,774 --> 00:18:49,929
Who... who to invite? Serena?
458
00:18:50,234 --> 00:18:51,357
I-I really want us to have a chance
459
00:18:51,358 --> 00:18:52,309
at being successful tonight.
460
00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:54,264
If she's there, we'll both be on edge.
461
00:18:54,826 --> 00:18:57,108
So I think we should just wait
till we have our footing.
462
00:18:57,915 --> 00:18:58,865
Nate?
463
00:18:59,077 --> 00:19:01,669
At a salon? I'm not even gonna
dignify that with a response.
464
00:19:01,670 --> 00:19:03,325
Well, since we're breaking
new ground together,
465
00:19:03,326 --> 00:19:05,085
why don't we bring some
new people into the mix?
466
00:19:05,086 --> 00:19:08,078
Like, uh, how about our new couple friends?
467
00:19:08,283 --> 00:19:11,192
Well, they do qualify as influencers.
Approved.
468
00:19:11,193 --> 00:19:12,745
And what about Diana Payne?
469
00:19:12,746 --> 00:19:14,413
She's British, and she's press.
470
00:19:14,414 --> 00:19:15,330
If she writes about tonight,
471
00:19:15,331 --> 00:19:18,527
our new world will be the hottest
destination in New York.
472
00:19:22,537 --> 00:19:24,901
Oh, okay, Vanya. I see you tonight.
473
00:19:24,928 --> 00:19:28,346
Big kisses to you and Ana and Leo.
Mwah, mwah, mwah.
474
00:19:28,347 --> 00:19:30,943
Hey, Dorota. I'm here looking for Serena.
Have you seen her?
475
00:19:30,944 --> 00:19:32,910
Oh, miss Serena hiding in room all day long
476
00:19:32,911 --> 00:19:35,090
like blonde Unabomber.
477
00:19:37,770 --> 00:19:40,264
You know the best part of this guest list?
478
00:19:40,265 --> 00:19:41,571
No "Gossip Girl" moles.
479
00:19:41,572 --> 00:19:43,169
I mean, can you imagine an entire night
480
00:19:43,170 --> 00:19:45,365
without having to worry about
embarrassing online photos
481
00:19:45,366 --> 00:19:47,142
or snarky e-blasts?
482
00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:49,855
And since we're gonna be
surrounded by New York literati
483
00:19:49,856 --> 00:19:52,505
and Brooklyn's literati,
it's the perfect opportunity
484
00:19:52,506 --> 00:19:54,270
for you to announce your second book.
485
00:19:54,703 --> 00:19:56,010
You think that's a good idea?
486
00:19:56,607 --> 00:19:57,856
We'll be making our debut as a couple,
487
00:19:57,857 --> 00:19:59,080
and you can reclaim your place
488
00:19:59,081 --> 00:20:01,679
as the most important young
writer in New York City.
489
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,546
Of course I think it's a good idea.
490
00:20:30,667 --> 00:20:32,741
Vanya, Mr. Humphrey will be back shortly,
491
00:20:32,742 --> 00:20:33,769
and he'll have some bags with him
492
00:20:33,770 --> 00:20:35,607
if you could help him upstairs.
493
00:20:35,608 --> 00:20:38,196
I will be so happy to
have Mr. Humphrey back.
494
00:20:38,197 --> 00:20:39,343
I haven't heard any great guitar riffs
495
00:20:39,344 --> 00:20:40,890
through the wall lately.
496
00:20:41,062 --> 00:20:42,947
Oh! Here. Thank you.
497
00:20:48,460 --> 00:20:49,107
Hello?
498
00:20:49,108 --> 00:20:50,541
Rufus Humphrey, please.
499
00:20:50,770 --> 00:20:53,455
Oh, I'm sorry.
Uh, my husband's not here at the moment.
500
00:20:53,456 --> 00:20:55,402
He should be home in an hour or so.
501
00:20:55,403 --> 00:20:57,238
This is the front desk at the Soho Grand.
502
00:20:57,239 --> 00:21:00,125
I'm just calling to verify
his credit card information.
503
00:21:00,126 --> 00:21:02,466
Oh, I can do that. What is he paying for?
504
00:21:02,467 --> 00:21:05,603
The stay of a hotel guest... Ivy Dickens.
505
00:21:08,639 --> 00:21:10,902
Oh, I'm... sorry. I'm...
506
00:21:10,903 --> 00:21:14,007
I absolutely cannot verify that card.
507
00:21:14,575 --> 00:21:17,756
Certainly not to pay for Ivy Dickens.
508
00:21:18,523 --> 00:21:21,634
Okay. Uh, thank you for your time.
509
00:21:21,635 --> 00:21:22,900
Thank you.
510
00:21:32,103 --> 00:21:34,211
Excuse me. Weren't you working the night
511
00:21:34,212 --> 00:21:36,271
that Chuck Bass was brought
into the hospital?
512
00:21:36,360 --> 00:21:38,351
Yes. I remember that night well.
513
00:21:38,352 --> 00:21:41,183
Do you happen to recognize this woman?
514
00:21:43,519 --> 00:21:46,855
Yes. She arrived at the hospital
the night of the accident.
515
00:21:46,856 --> 00:21:48,973
She donated blood and left quickly
516
00:21:48,974 --> 00:21:50,987
before Mr. Bass regained consciousness.
517
00:21:52,445 --> 00:21:54,217
Thank you so much. You've been a huge help.
518
00:21:54,218 --> 00:21:55,350
Sure.
519
00:21:59,152 --> 00:22:00,607
Hi. This is Serena Van Der Woodsen,
520
00:22:00,608 --> 00:22:02,243
calling for Ms. Payne.
521
00:22:02,244 --> 00:22:04,032
I'm sorry.
She's not available at the moment.
522
00:22:04,033 --> 00:22:05,219
Would you like to leave a message?
523
00:22:05,220 --> 00:22:06,606
Uh, do you know where I might find her?
524
00:22:06,607 --> 00:22:08,179
I need to speak with her immediately.
525
00:22:08,180 --> 00:22:10,738
I-I have a lead on a story
that I know she'll wanna break
526
00:22:10,739 --> 00:22:12,034
before the "Daily News".
527
00:22:12,035 --> 00:22:13,714
Okay, uh, just a second.
528
00:22:13,715 --> 00:22:16,174
She'll be attending the salon at
Daniel Humphrey's this evening.
529
00:22:16,271 --> 00:22:16,990
It's located at...
530
00:22:16,991 --> 00:22:19,072
Yeah, okay, I got it. Thank you.
531
00:22:23,331 --> 00:22:24,155
I know you're mad at me,
532
00:22:24,156 --> 00:22:25,414
but if you'll just meet me at Dan's,
533
00:22:25,415 --> 00:22:27,628
I have proof that Serena is Gossip Girl.
534
00:22:27,629 --> 00:22:29,691
Fine, but only on the condition
535
00:22:29,692 --> 00:22:31,701
that if your so-called
proof comes up short,
536
00:22:31,702 --> 00:22:33,415
you'll agree to drop this once and for all.
537
00:22:33,416 --> 00:22:35,077
Yes, absolutely. Thank you.
538
00:22:35,078 --> 00:22:36,156
Thank you. Thank you so much.
539
00:22:36,157 --> 00:22:37,319
You won't regret it.
540
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,744
All right. See you soon.
541
00:22:39,943 --> 00:22:40,971
Any interest in, uh,
542
00:22:40,972 --> 00:22:43,357
taking a little field
trip out to the 7-1-8?
543
00:22:43,724 --> 00:22:46,219
Sure. I haven't been slumming in a while.
544
00:22:47,336 --> 00:22:49,827
Seems New York's newest intellectuals
545
00:22:49,828 --> 00:22:52,532
are about to get dumbed down.
546
00:23:06,364 --> 00:23:07,643
Welcome, everybody.
547
00:23:07,644 --> 00:23:10,987
Tonight is about wit and
wisdom and discussion.
548
00:23:11,103 --> 00:23:12,961
Our theme of the evening, as you know,
549
00:23:12,962 --> 00:23:14,523
is all things British.
550
00:23:14,524 --> 00:23:17,258
And our menu, prepared by
chef April Bloomfield,
551
00:23:17,259 --> 00:23:19,507
takes its inspiration from that theme.
552
00:23:19,940 --> 00:23:21,594
So as each new dish is served,
553
00:23:21,595 --> 00:23:23,751
a new topic of discussion
will be introduced.
554
00:23:23,752 --> 00:23:25,131
Food service will begin momentarily,
555
00:23:25,132 --> 00:23:28,407
but until then, Dan and I are
so pleased to be hosting you.
556
00:23:28,408 --> 00:23:29,687
Cheerio!
557
00:23:29,799 --> 00:23:31,459
Here, here! Sorry I'm late.
558
00:23:31,460 --> 00:23:33,694
Late? How can you be late
559
00:23:33,695 --> 00:23:35,503
to an event you didn't
even know was happening?
560
00:23:35,904 --> 00:23:37,038
What are you doing here?
561
00:23:37,039 --> 00:23:38,503
In the madness of planning this soiree,
562
00:23:38,504 --> 00:23:39,678
you must have forgotten to invite me.
563
00:23:39,679 --> 00:23:41,438
But it's okay. Don't stop on account of me.
564
00:23:41,439 --> 00:23:43,120
I'll just make myself at home.
565
00:23:43,808 --> 00:23:47,223
Um, the first course is a
lovely combination of...
566
00:23:47,224 --> 00:23:48,632
Look, it's Lola.
567
00:23:49,695 --> 00:23:51,264
I'm wearing the Lola.
568
00:23:51,295 --> 00:23:52,431
Wait, you invited her?
569
00:23:52,432 --> 00:23:53,728
Yes.
No.
570
00:23:54,684 --> 00:23:55,806
Talk amongst yourselves.
571
00:23:55,807 --> 00:23:58,192
Dan and I will be back in a London minute.
572
00:24:03,151 --> 00:24:05,944
I am trying to maintain a
stiff British upper lip,
573
00:24:05,945 --> 00:24:07,454
but how can I keep calm and carry on
574
00:24:07,455 --> 00:24:08,751
with those two here?
575
00:24:08,752 --> 00:24:10,715
Serena will spend the
whole night judging us,
576
00:24:10,716 --> 00:24:12,506
and Lola is probably just trying
577
00:24:12,507 --> 00:24:15,119
to squeeze every last drop of
free press out of the night
578
00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:17,160
so she can move on from the
community theater circuit.
579
00:24:17,161 --> 00:24:20,346
Blair, our salon can easily
handle a few party crashers.
580
00:24:20,347 --> 00:24:22,930
And besides, you should be at
least a little flattered that
581
00:24:22,931 --> 00:24:25,126
they both made it all the way
to Brooklyn to check it out.
582
00:24:25,236 --> 00:24:26,324
Look...
583
00:24:26,727 --> 00:24:28,744
Tonight is gonna be great.
584
00:24:29,335 --> 00:24:30,487
Deal?
585
00:24:32,059 --> 00:24:33,163
Deal.
586
00:24:40,648 --> 00:24:42,087
Isn't this exciting,
587
00:24:42,116 --> 00:24:44,388
Dan making his big book
announcement tonight?
588
00:24:45,155 --> 00:24:46,794
Hey, wasn't it Gossip Girl
589
00:24:46,795 --> 00:24:48,878
who first broke the news about "Inside"?
590
00:24:49,422 --> 00:24:50,747
I think so.
591
00:24:50,748 --> 00:24:51,487
Do you think she'll break the news
592
00:24:51,488 --> 00:24:52,370
about the sequel tonight,
593
00:24:52,371 --> 00:24:53,770
or will someone else beat her to the punch?
594
00:24:53,771 --> 00:24:56,636
I mean, there are a lot
of media types here.
595
00:24:57,468 --> 00:24:59,226
Of course, maybe Gossip Girl is here, too.
596
00:24:59,227 --> 00:25:01,361
In which case, she doesn't have to worry.
597
00:25:01,937 --> 00:25:04,081
Gossip Girl doesn't need
to travel to get her news.
598
00:25:04,082 --> 00:25:05,963
She's got sources everywhere.
599
00:25:06,026 --> 00:25:08,771
Really? Even at a party like this?
600
00:25:08,772 --> 00:25:10,155
I mean... look around.
601
00:25:10,156 --> 00:25:12,203
Who would be sending Gossip Girl tips?
602
00:25:13,811 --> 00:25:14,402
Well, all I'm saying
603
00:25:14,403 --> 00:25:16,497
is that this book party
is a pretty big deal.
604
00:25:16,498 --> 00:25:18,162
I think Gossip Girl would
have to post about it
605
00:25:18,163 --> 00:25:19,519
to stay relevant.
606
00:25:19,933 --> 00:25:21,630
Look, I understand Gossip Girl's probably
607
00:25:21,631 --> 00:25:23,595
pretty fascinating to a newcomer like you,
608
00:25:23,596 --> 00:25:25,884
but to me, she's just not.
609
00:25:26,075 --> 00:25:26,767
If you'll excuse me,
610
00:25:26,768 --> 00:25:28,858
I'm gonna go rejoin the other guests.
611
00:25:35,991 --> 00:25:36,857
What are you doing here?
612
00:25:36,858 --> 00:25:38,450
I'm not sure. Nate invited me.
613
00:25:38,451 --> 00:25:39,194
What are we doing here?
614
00:25:39,195 --> 00:25:40,288
Well, Lola invited us.
615
00:25:40,289 --> 00:25:40,958
Hi, hi, hi.
616
00:25:40,959 --> 00:25:44,635
Where do you get off
inviting people to my salon?
617
00:25:44,636 --> 00:25:45,639
Explain yourself.
618
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,896
Yes, Lola, I think an
explanation's in order.
619
00:25:48,036 --> 00:25:49,027
Nate, listen to me.
620
00:25:49,028 --> 00:25:49,911
Blair, leave it.
621
00:25:49,912 --> 00:25:51,369
I know you think I've completely lost it,
622
00:25:51,370 --> 00:25:53,282
but I'm about to prove
to you once and for all
623
00:25:53,283 --> 00:25:54,666
that Serena is Gossip Girl.
624
00:25:54,667 --> 00:25:55,950
But what if you're wrong?
625
00:25:55,951 --> 00:25:58,023
I'm not. Serena crashed this party
626
00:25:58,024 --> 00:25:59,439
because she heard that
Dan was gonna announce
627
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:00,455
the topic of his second book,
628
00:26:00,456 --> 00:26:02,474
and I promise you that 30 seconds later,
629
00:26:02,475 --> 00:26:03,872
it's gonna be all over "Gossip Girl."
630
00:26:03,873 --> 00:26:05,018
Yeah, well, that doesn't prove anything.
631
00:26:05,019 --> 00:26:07,211
I mean, anyone here could
send in a tip, including Dan.
632
00:26:07,508 --> 00:26:08,710
Fine. I have a better idea.
633
00:26:08,711 --> 00:26:09,539
Wait, Lola...
634
00:26:09,540 --> 00:26:11,460
No. I'll show you. Trust me.
635
00:26:16,535 --> 00:26:18,406
So, Mr. Humphrey, how you
like new magnetic fields?
636
00:26:18,407 --> 00:26:20,200
I love it. Hey, Lil.
637
00:26:24,155 --> 00:26:26,764
Can you just leave these here? Thank you.
638
00:26:34,008 --> 00:26:37,208
Have you secretly been putting
Ivy Dickens up in a hotel?
639
00:26:40,387 --> 00:26:41,940
Yes, I have.
640
00:26:43,099 --> 00:26:44,291
You left her penniless,
641
00:26:44,292 --> 00:26:45,851
I'm the one who convinced her to move out.
642
00:26:45,852 --> 00:26:47,295
I felt responsible,
643
00:26:47,296 --> 00:26:48,923
couldn't let her live on the street.
644
00:26:48,924 --> 00:26:50,088
Why not?
645
00:26:50,089 --> 00:26:52,691
She's a thief.
That's exactly where she belongs.
646
00:26:52,692 --> 00:26:55,139
She's a young girl. She has nothing.
647
00:26:55,140 --> 00:26:57,275
She has no family, no friends. No money.
648
00:26:57,276 --> 00:27:00,444
I could care less about
Ivy, which you well know.
649
00:27:00,855 --> 00:27:02,574
How could you help this girl...
650
00:27:02,575 --> 00:27:03,124
Lily, you have to under...
651
00:27:03,125 --> 00:27:05,735
After what she did to our family?
652
00:27:05,736 --> 00:27:08,423
I did what I thought was right.
653
00:27:08,424 --> 00:27:09,960
With my money.
654
00:27:11,888 --> 00:27:13,858
I used my own personal credit card.
655
00:27:17,933 --> 00:27:20,854
At least now I know how you really feel.
656
00:27:20,855 --> 00:27:22,903
This is clearly a much bigger issue.
657
00:27:31,452 --> 00:27:32,878
Entrees are almost ready,
658
00:27:32,879 --> 00:27:35,063
but I've ran out of ice, and I need the ice
659
00:27:35,064 --> 00:27:37,423
to finish off my dessert
and my special cocktail.
660
00:27:37,424 --> 00:27:39,710
I think Meryl Streep was a perfect...
661
00:27:39,711 --> 00:27:41,282
In the world of the novel,
London has become
662
00:27:41,283 --> 00:27:43,214
the very idea of the big city.
663
00:27:43,215 --> 00:27:44,496
I need to speak with you.
664
00:27:45,339 --> 00:27:49,068
Excuse me. Graham Greene.
Martin Amis. Discuss.
665
00:27:49,211 --> 00:27:49,823
Okay, don't freak out,
666
00:27:49,824 --> 00:27:51,007
but since everybody's crashing,
667
00:27:51,008 --> 00:27:51,979
April's running short on ice.
668
00:27:51,980 --> 00:27:53,039
We need to run out and get some more,
669
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,131
so dinner's gonna be delayed.
670
00:27:54,132 --> 00:27:55,363
How long?
671
00:27:55,436 --> 00:27:57,548
No. You know what? We can handle this.
672
00:27:57,552 --> 00:27:58,999
W.W.D.P.D.?
673
00:27:59,000 --> 00:27:59,595
Mm?
674
00:27:59,596 --> 00:28:01,088
What would Dorothy Parker do?
675
00:28:01,303 --> 00:28:03,304
Uh, get them drunk until we get back.
676
00:28:03,476 --> 00:28:05,738
Of course. A-a liquid diet of booze
677
00:28:05,739 --> 00:28:08,124
and great intellectual
discussion should suffice.
678
00:28:09,991 --> 00:28:11,318
Can I top off anyone's wine?
679
00:28:11,319 --> 00:28:13,302
Nothing gets conversation
flowing like a good red.
680
00:28:13,303 --> 00:28:15,730
Dan, why are we discussing
British literary figures
681
00:28:15,731 --> 00:28:18,683
when we have New York's most
celebrated author in our midst?
682
00:28:18,684 --> 00:28:21,197
An author with an announcement, perhaps?
683
00:28:21,198 --> 00:28:23,307
Good evening, everyone. Sorry I'm late.
684
00:28:23,308 --> 00:28:26,156
Oh, Diana.
Just the person I was hoping to see.
685
00:28:26,204 --> 00:28:28,206
Do... do you have a moment
to speak privately?
686
00:28:28,207 --> 00:28:29,264
Sure.
687
00:28:30,375 --> 00:28:32,679
And we're off to get the ice.
688
00:28:48,011 --> 00:28:50,332
So I'm assuming you have an answer for me.
689
00:28:50,548 --> 00:28:51,606
What do you say?
690
00:28:51,607 --> 00:28:53,274
Me and my resources plus Gossip Girl
691
00:28:53,275 --> 00:28:55,047
is a powerful combination.
692
00:28:55,048 --> 00:28:57,477
Well, I don't know.
Usually when I enter into a partnership
693
00:28:57,478 --> 00:28:59,646
with someone, I-I like to
know everything about them.
694
00:28:59,647 --> 00:29:01,583
I-I think they call that vetting?
695
00:29:01,628 --> 00:29:03,084
Vet away, darling.
696
00:29:03,264 --> 00:29:06,082
Well, I just have a couple questions.
697
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,585
Like, where were you the
night of Chuck's accident,
698
00:29:09,586 --> 00:29:11,012
November 18th?
699
00:29:13,339 --> 00:29:14,899
I was...
700
00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:16,619
I was here in New York.
701
00:29:17,336 --> 00:29:20,359
And do you happen to know where
he was treated for his injuries?
702
00:29:20,623 --> 00:29:22,143
Or his blood type?
703
00:29:23,176 --> 00:29:24,486
Do you know the date he was born
704
00:29:24,487 --> 00:29:26,632
or where you were on that date?
705
00:29:27,975 --> 00:29:29,543
I know what you're getting at.
706
00:29:29,929 --> 00:29:31,110
Well, if you know what I'm getting at,
707
00:29:31,111 --> 00:29:32,840
then why don't you answer for me?
708
00:29:33,048 --> 00:29:35,048
Or would you like me to do that?
709
00:29:36,134 --> 00:29:37,639
What do you want me to say?
710
00:29:44,107 --> 00:29:45,790
The nurse recognized you.
711
00:29:45,791 --> 00:29:47,792
You saved Chuck's life.
712
00:29:48,635 --> 00:29:51,176
And you did that because...
713
00:29:52,863 --> 00:29:54,286
I'm Chuck's mother.
714
00:29:54,835 --> 00:29:56,316
If you want my advice,
715
00:29:56,317 --> 00:29:58,410
it's run, Lola, run,
716
00:29:58,411 --> 00:30:02,267
'cause you just let out the
mother of all secrets.
717
00:30:21,587 --> 00:30:22,899
Is it true?
718
00:30:23,620 --> 00:30:24,562
Yes, Charles, it is.
719
00:30:24,563 --> 00:30:25,749
Don't.
720
00:30:25,767 --> 00:30:28,888
Just... stay right there.
721
00:30:29,988 --> 00:30:32,516
You have been in New York for months,
722
00:30:32,872 --> 00:30:35,990
inviting me to parties, hiring my friends,
723
00:30:35,991 --> 00:30:38,875
hanging out in my apartment
in your underwear,
724
00:30:38,876 --> 00:30:40,265
banging my best friend.
725
00:30:40,266 --> 00:30:42,222
Did it not occur to you to mention this,
726
00:30:42,223 --> 00:30:43,919
that you were my mother?!
727
00:30:44,420 --> 00:30:46,311
Please, Chuck, I can explain.
728
00:30:46,312 --> 00:30:49,815
I-I can't do this right now...
or ever. I can't.
729
00:31:01,748 --> 00:31:04,646
Well, this is the most dramatic
salon I've ever been to.
730
00:31:04,647 --> 00:31:07,192
Very unbritish, if you ask me.
731
00:31:10,439 --> 00:31:12,646
I hope you're pleased with yourself.
732
00:31:12,827 --> 00:31:14,508
I was right all along.
733
00:31:14,632 --> 00:31:16,465
You're actually her. You're Gossip Girl.
734
00:31:16,466 --> 00:31:18,119
Even if I am, it doesn't matter.
735
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,302
Do you realize the damage
that you've just done?
736
00:31:20,303 --> 00:31:22,265
You had no right to do that.
737
00:31:22,979 --> 00:31:24,899
Who wants another Pimm's Cup?
738
00:31:25,919 --> 00:31:26,706
Wait. What happened here?
739
00:31:26,707 --> 00:31:28,163
Where's everyone going?
740
00:31:28,676 --> 00:31:31,011
That was more soap opera than salon.
741
00:31:31,647 --> 00:31:33,968
This never would've happened
at the Oracle Club.
742
00:31:38,711 --> 00:31:40,856
This was supposed to be
our coming out party.
743
00:31:40,927 --> 00:31:42,979
It was supposed to capture
who we are as a couple,
744
00:31:42,980 --> 00:31:44,858
but it wasn't smart or interesting.
745
00:31:44,859 --> 00:31:46,723
It wasn't uptown or downtown.
746
00:31:46,724 --> 00:31:48,277
It was a bloody mess.
747
00:31:48,278 --> 00:31:49,960
Blair, it was... it was just a party.
748
00:31:49,961 --> 00:31:51,511
No, it wasn't.
749
00:31:51,512 --> 00:31:52,883
We tried to create a new world
750
00:31:52,884 --> 00:31:54,122
for our relationship to exist in,
751
00:31:54,123 --> 00:31:55,706
but we failed miserably.
752
00:31:56,770 --> 00:31:57,931
You don't want to live in my world,
753
00:31:57,932 --> 00:31:59,973
and I certainly don't
want to live in yours.
754
00:32:00,779 --> 00:32:02,412
So where does that leave us?
755
00:32:04,032 --> 00:32:05,200
I don't know.
756
00:32:09,715 --> 00:32:12,612
I'm genuinely sorry that
I hurt Chuck today.
757
00:32:13,135 --> 00:32:14,927
I'm not sorry I hurt you.
758
00:32:15,252 --> 00:32:16,755
Here's your coat, sir.
759
00:32:21,750 --> 00:32:23,988
Please, whatever you do,
just don't tell anyone...
760
00:32:23,989 --> 00:32:25,232
what you know.
761
00:32:27,780 --> 00:32:29,059
Nate, wait.
762
00:32:29,971 --> 00:32:31,124
Where are you going?
763
00:32:31,135 --> 00:32:33,135
I need to find Chuck and
make sure he's all right.
764
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,759
I'm sorry. This is all my fault.
765
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,518
I told you to leave things alone.
766
00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:39,682
It's one thing to accuse
Serena of being Gossip Girl.
767
00:32:39,683 --> 00:32:41,411
But sending in that video about Chuck?
768
00:32:41,668 --> 00:32:43,140
I can't forgive that.
769
00:32:43,515 --> 00:32:45,548
I mean, do you have anything
to say for yourself?
770
00:32:51,655 --> 00:32:52,646
No.
771
00:33:04,620 --> 00:33:05,803
Thank you.
772
00:33:06,204 --> 00:33:09,099
The Brits say "God save the Queen."
773
00:33:09,100 --> 00:33:10,723
But it looks like Lola is
774
00:33:10,724 --> 00:33:14,212
the one in need of a royal S.O.S.
775
00:33:31,836 --> 00:33:33,854
Nate, I need to speak with you and Chuck.
776
00:33:33,855 --> 00:33:35,391
We don't have anything to say to you.
777
00:33:35,743 --> 00:33:37,439
You need to go now.
778
00:33:38,419 --> 00:33:39,587
It's okay.
779
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,647
I may be angry, but I
need to know the truth.
780
00:34:01,765 --> 00:34:03,286
You running away?
781
00:34:04,265 --> 00:34:05,271
No.
782
00:34:06,067 --> 00:34:07,636
Joining the army?
783
00:34:08,603 --> 00:34:09,735
Auditioning for one of those
784
00:34:09,736 --> 00:34:13,198
"America's Got Idol Talent Factor" shows?
785
00:34:13,199 --> 00:34:16,575
I was hoping I could have
a sleepover with you.
786
00:34:23,888 --> 00:34:26,965
You do realize that means
you'd be entering my world.
787
00:34:27,071 --> 00:34:28,079
I do.
788
00:34:29,157 --> 00:34:31,267
Our relationship is not
choosing one world or another.
789
00:34:31,268 --> 00:34:33,028
Our relationship is our world.
790
00:34:33,551 --> 00:34:34,967
Well, then tonight our relationship
791
00:34:34,968 --> 00:34:36,822
was a world-wide disaster.
792
00:34:36,823 --> 00:34:38,091
It's probably not gonna be our last,
793
00:34:38,092 --> 00:34:40,843
but we have to face these
disasters together.
794
00:34:40,888 --> 00:34:42,103
We're a team.
795
00:34:43,279 --> 00:34:48,271
So... maybe we can...
be a team at the met ball?
796
00:34:48,456 --> 00:34:49,778
Absolutely.
797
00:34:49,779 --> 00:34:52,502
And, uh, at a beet pickling festival.
798
00:34:52,503 --> 00:34:54,201
Mmm.
799
00:34:55,495 --> 00:34:56,570
You know I wouldn't be caught dead
800
00:34:56,571 --> 00:34:57,555
at a beet pickling festival?
801
00:34:57,556 --> 00:34:59,284
I'm just messing with you.
802
00:35:03,371 --> 00:35:06,058
I met your father when he
was still with Elizabeth.
803
00:35:06,511 --> 00:35:07,953
I was very young.
804
00:35:07,954 --> 00:35:09,523
I couldn't resist him.
805
00:35:09,622 --> 00:35:12,967
He was charming, handsome.
806
00:35:13,852 --> 00:35:16,812
It felt as if he had the
whole world at his feet.
807
00:35:18,455 --> 00:35:20,699
I knew he was involved with someone else.
808
00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:22,140
You mean married.
809
00:35:22,223 --> 00:35:23,312
Yeah.
810
00:35:23,487 --> 00:35:24,974
We had an affair,
811
00:35:25,731 --> 00:35:28,275
and it only ended when I got pregnant.
812
00:35:29,096 --> 00:35:30,752
But you kept the baby.
813
00:35:31,124 --> 00:35:32,155
You must have wanted me.
814
00:35:32,156 --> 00:35:34,427
I mean, why did you give me up?
815
00:35:35,052 --> 00:35:36,459
I was a mess.
816
00:35:36,647 --> 00:35:40,104
Mixed up in the wrong things
with the wrong people.
817
00:35:40,859 --> 00:35:42,827
Unfit to raise a child.
818
00:35:44,008 --> 00:35:46,456
And then Elizabeth... she
couldn't get pregnant.
819
00:35:47,356 --> 00:35:50,275
It... seemed like a way to
solve all our problems.
820
00:35:50,276 --> 00:35:51,875
So you made a deal.
821
00:35:52,356 --> 00:35:55,668
After it was over, I left town, alone...
822
00:35:57,683 --> 00:35:59,103
and ashamed.
823
00:35:59,296 --> 00:36:00,706
But a few years later,
824
00:36:00,707 --> 00:36:02,772
when I heard that Elizabeth had died,
825
00:36:04,275 --> 00:36:06,665
although I now know that wasn't the case,
826
00:36:06,832 --> 00:36:07,685
I came back.
827
00:36:07,686 --> 00:36:09,399
But Elizabeth couldn't do it.
828
00:36:09,659 --> 00:36:11,917
She couldn't stick to
her end of the bargain,
829
00:36:13,276 --> 00:36:16,315
to raise someone else's child as her own.
830
00:36:16,688 --> 00:36:19,260
I wanted to see you desperately.
831
00:36:21,023 --> 00:36:22,921
But Bart thought it would
be too confusing for you.
832
00:36:22,922 --> 00:36:25,688
So you just stayed away
until eight months ago?
833
00:36:25,753 --> 00:36:27,734
When I came back to the city last fall,
834
00:36:27,735 --> 00:36:29,751
I was hoping to watch over you...
835
00:36:30,732 --> 00:36:31,411
from afar.
836
00:36:31,412 --> 00:36:33,412
Nate's bed is not that far.
837
00:36:33,892 --> 00:36:36,587
Well, I didn't intend for
things to get as serious
838
00:36:36,588 --> 00:36:38,107
as they did with Nate.
839
00:36:38,591 --> 00:36:40,068
And then I thought,
840
00:36:40,069 --> 00:36:41,955
if you never find out the truth,
841
00:36:43,116 --> 00:36:44,347
what's the harm?
842
00:36:53,339 --> 00:36:54,860
So what does it all mean...
843
00:36:55,883 --> 00:36:57,002
Now that I know?
844
00:36:59,623 --> 00:37:01,527
That's for you to decide.
845
00:37:11,436 --> 00:37:13,116
You know where to find me.
846
00:37:27,107 --> 00:37:29,882
Haven't you stirred up enough
trouble for one night?
847
00:37:29,883 --> 00:37:31,500
I came to return this.
848
00:37:32,643 --> 00:37:34,894
Why didn't you tell Nate
when you had the chance?
849
00:37:34,895 --> 00:37:37,023
Because I knew it would
hurt him if he found out.
850
00:37:37,796 --> 00:37:38,625
You're one of his best friends.
851
00:37:38,626 --> 00:37:39,962
Even when you guys are mad at each other,
852
00:37:39,963 --> 00:37:41,540
he still cares about you.
853
00:37:42,425 --> 00:37:44,920
I couldn't ruin Chuck's life
and Nate's in the same night.
854
00:37:56,352 --> 00:37:57,967
Can I just ask why?
855
00:37:58,790 --> 00:38:00,164
Why do you do it?
856
00:38:01,951 --> 00:38:04,671
I only became Gossip Girl recently,
857
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,254
and... and right now it's
the only thing I have.
858
00:38:08,255 --> 00:38:09,878
I mean, it's... it's the
only thing in my life
859
00:38:09,879 --> 00:38:11,850
that I can hold on to,
860
00:38:11,851 --> 00:38:14,424
you know, because a lot of times
861
00:38:14,425 --> 00:38:17,411
my life is just really out of control.
862
00:38:18,052 --> 00:38:19,775
Well, I get that, but you're doing exactly
863
00:38:19,776 --> 00:38:22,111
what was done to you and to everyone else.
864
00:38:23,306 --> 00:38:26,792
Yeah. I mean, I was hurt,
sure, but I survived.
865
00:38:27,035 --> 00:38:29,579
A little adversity can
actually be good for you.
866
00:38:29,631 --> 00:38:31,570
You'll see how things work around here.
867
00:38:31,571 --> 00:38:33,159
No, I won't, actually.
868
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,784
I'm officially resigning
from the Upper East Side.
869
00:38:36,038 --> 00:38:37,071
I have a whole life at Julliard
870
00:38:37,072 --> 00:38:39,183
where the drama's reserved for the stage,
871
00:38:39,184 --> 00:38:41,071
and I think I belong back there.
872
00:38:41,375 --> 00:38:43,822
So if you want the Upper East Side back,
873
00:38:43,823 --> 00:38:45,136
it's all yours.
874
00:38:45,463 --> 00:38:47,462
You're the only "it" girl
that matters, anyway.
875
00:38:48,143 --> 00:38:49,727
You see to that yourself.
876
00:38:59,592 --> 00:39:03,575
The Upper East Side is
filled with high rollers.
877
00:39:13,968 --> 00:39:16,447
Sorry, sir, but your
debit card was declined.
878
00:39:18,599 --> 00:39:19,976
Are you sure about that?
879
00:39:21,401 --> 00:39:24,055
Why don't you try running it again?
880
00:39:24,056 --> 00:39:26,824
I did. Four times, to be precise.
881
00:39:31,658 --> 00:39:33,001
Sorry about that.
882
00:39:37,656 --> 00:39:39,798
Here you go. I don't need change.
883
00:39:45,499 --> 00:39:48,332
Some people choose to bet on themselves...
884
00:40:00,215 --> 00:40:03,319
while others are happy
to bet on someone else.
885
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,614
I'm sorry, but if you insist
that Damien Hirst's work
886
00:40:06,615 --> 00:40:08,271
is anything but simple-minded,
887
00:40:08,272 --> 00:40:09,878
sensationalist, and fatuous,
888
00:40:09,879 --> 00:40:12,251
I'm not sure I'll be able to lay
my head next to yours tonight.
889
00:40:12,252 --> 00:40:13,894
That's... that's fine, but you can't deny
890
00:40:13,895 --> 00:40:15,587
that his influence on the art market
891
00:40:15,588 --> 00:40:16,787
as we know it today is massive.
892
00:40:16,788 --> 00:40:18,915
But luck is a funny thing.
893
00:40:20,187 --> 00:40:23,444
It's easy to accept it
when it goes your way.
894
00:40:26,324 --> 00:40:28,068
But when it doesn't...
895
00:40:29,031 --> 00:40:33,000
call it injustice, call it treachery...
896
00:40:33,043 --> 00:40:34,308
Hey, mom.
897
00:40:35,154 --> 00:40:38,163
You were right.
The Upper East Side is toxic.
898
00:40:38,164 --> 00:40:40,051
I never should have stepped foot in it,
899
00:40:40,267 --> 00:40:41,979
just like you warned me.
900
00:40:42,804 --> 00:40:45,283
But, um, you don't have to worry
901
00:40:45,284 --> 00:40:47,427
because I'm done with it.
902
00:40:47,771 --> 00:40:48,886
There's nothing else tying me
903
00:40:48,887 --> 00:40:50,620
to the Van Der Woodsens or their world,
904
00:40:50,621 --> 00:40:55,344
so... I have to say, it's huge relief.
905
00:40:57,103 --> 00:40:58,415
Talk to you soon.
906
00:41:06,851 --> 00:41:08,271
But remember,
907
00:41:08,275 --> 00:41:11,123
the most important rule in gambling...
908
00:41:12,163 --> 00:41:15,478
is that the house always wins.
909
00:41:15,479 --> 00:41:17,019
You know you love me.
910
00:41:17,020 --> 00:41:19,787
X.O.X.O., Gossip Girl.
911
00:41:19,812 --> 00:41:29,812
