Trivia:

This is the third time that Blair has a dream in which she is a character that was played by Audrey Hepburn in a movie. The first time this happened was in "Gossip Girl: Bad News Blair (#1.4)" (2007) with Blair being Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961), whom she also impersonated in "Gossip Girl: The Blair Bitch Project (#1.14)" (2008). This time she is Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady (1964). It would happen a forth time in "Gossip Girl: Seder Anything (#2.21)" (2009).

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: Serena mentions knowing that it was Pope Pius XI who canonized Sir Thomas More as a Saint by watching the TV show The Tudors. This is impossible as The Tudors is a historical drama only covering the reign of Henry VIII (1509-1547); Pope Pius XI canonized More as a saint in 1935.

Quotes:

Serena van der Woodsen: I won't accept, I can't like this.
[talking about her Yale acceptance]
Blair Waldorf: What? No you have to. It doesn't matter how you got it or why, it's an opportunity.
Serena van der Woodsen: No your my best friend. What's mine is yours.
Blair Waldorf: You can't share this.
Serena van der Woodsen: We'll find a way, together.
[hugs Blair]
