Quotes 

• Jack Bass : [to Chuck]  Chuck, your father wouldn't want this.

  Chuck Bass : Fortunately, all I know is what he didn't want... which is me.

• Blair Waldorf : Hey, Eric, have you seen Chuck?

  Eric van der Woodsen : A while ago, he said something about wanting to take a view from above.

  Jack Bass : He probably meant upstairs.

  Blair Waldorf : Clearly you don't know Chuck. He has a thing for the rooftops.

• Chuck Bass : Uncle Jack, what a surprise. How've you been?

  Jack Bass : Uh-huh, so I take it you don't remember our rickshaw ride down Selon Road? The 15-hour flight?

  Chuck Bass : That was you?

• Jack Bass : Blair, you came to greet us.

  Blair Waldorf : Not you, Chuck. You said you found him.

  Jack Bass : In Bangkok. He was staying at our hotel there. You hear the term "den of iniquity", but until you really see one...

  Blair Waldorf : Do you have him or not?

• Jack Bass : I get Bart dying has been difficult. But the way things've been handled the last couple weeks, you shut away like Gloria Swanson, my nephew MIA in a Thai bordello, my big brother may not've won parent-of-the-year, but I doubt he'd be too happy.

  Lily van der Woodsen : Well, you needn't worry yourself anymore. Chuck is my stepson. I'll take care of him.

  Jack Bass : Was your stepson. And as Chuck's last living relative, I have to say... I don't feel comfortable leaving him in this situation.

  [blissfully unconcerned] 

  Jack Bass : You should eat. People grieving tend to neglect their health.
