谁能如愿进入常青藤联盟高校？大家得知了谁被耶鲁大学提前录取了。S找了下新来的莎士比亚课老师，新老师给了Blair人生中史无前例的一个B，对于这事儿的后果还一无所知。Chuck为了赢得Bass家业，同看似不可能的某人结盟。Nate同Vanessa在歌剧院度过了浪漫的一晚。
1. Blair: You look like a firing squad.
Harold:More like a welcoming committee. It's the big day.
Roman: It's all the color of Yale, you see?
Blair: 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: Oh. I am so a better fit for Yale than that Rory.
perk up: to make someone more active and interested.
wink: 眨眼. I couldn’t sleep a wink. / I can’t get a wink of sleep. 我一点也睡不着
Rory: Gilmore Girl里的人物，她上的大学就是Yale. 另外注意一下I’m so a better fit for…than…(我比…跟适合…)这样的用法。
2. Harold: A shoo-in. The personal letter that I wrote to Dean Berube should simply cinch it.
shoo-in: 1. A sure winner. 2. One that has a sure chance of being chosen, as for a job or other position.
cinch: sure thing; a certainty.
3. Dan: You don't have to worry either. Blair's a lock. The dean told her as much, right?
lock: absolute certainty about a situation. 和上面的shoo-in, cinch一样，都表示“稳操胜券”的意思。
4. Dan: Look, getting into Yale will change our lives. It'll give us a chance to reinvent ourselves.
Serena: Yeah, yeah, and in the meantime, at least our parents are keeping it on the down low.
keeping it on the down low: to keep something very secret; not tell another person. e.g. Alright, I'll tell you but keep it on the down low...
5. Lily: Well, now that this is all out in the open, maybe we can stop sneaking around. I mean, we've had the awkward run-in and it isn't so bad. I don't know why we thought this would be so weird.
Dan: Let's leave now.
Serena: Nice try, mom.
Rufus: Yeah, seriously, good effort.
out in the open: 事情已经公开了
sneak around: 偷偷摸摸，sneak in与sneak out一个是溜进来，一个是溜出去。
nice try: 通常用在你想要做一件事，或者说一段话，但是效果适得其反，对方就会说nice try, 意思是虽然结果是失败了，但是感谢你的尝试。
6. Lily: And I'm really feeling ready to get back to the world.
Rufus: Aren't you worried about people seeing us together so soon?
Lily: The kids know. Why shouldn't the world? And, uh, we might as well make our society debut in style.
debut: A first public appearance, as of a performer. 注意这个单词是法语过来的，所以不能用英文的发音规则来念。
