Emily
One of the thing that surprised viewing audience aboutEmily in Paris , and led to some critique was that Emily seemed to eff utterly no Gallic — and expected that this would be perfectly fine in Paris .

14"Without Basic B****es Like Me, You Wouldn’t Be Fashionable."
Every mode lover ’s dream is to meet a grownup - name designer and be able-bodied to wear or afford their clothes . Emily had the fortune of a lifetime to meet and maybe bring with Pierre Cadault . Sadly for her , after Pierre take one look at the keychain on her shameful bag , he calls her a " canonical b****.“Seeing someone so upset by a keychain is comic , but it was even amusing that he promise Emily " basic " for having it .
Emily face up him in a very Julia Roberts - confronts - the - shop - clerk - in - Pretty Womankind of way . While seeingSwan Lake , she ultimately tells him his line would n’t be where it is without " basic b****es " like her . The quote was perfect because it was large to see someone like Emily remain firm up to a pretentious snob . It worked as an even more meaning moment since Pierre was someone she had previously looked up to and was disappointed by .
13"Repete S’il Vous Plait?”
One of Emily ’s ongoing challenge in the series is endeavor to make her way in the professional world of Paris despite not knowing any French . It is quite ignorant of her to assume others would accommodate her terminology roadblock even though she is a visitor to their area . However , this is one of the good example of how naive she is and how small she know what to expect when she shows up in Paris to work at her new Book of Job .
Emily ’s lack of French does make her the stooge of the joke many times , admit in her feud with Camille . After being hinder in a group meeting , Emily tries to apologize to Camille , who responds coldly in French . Emily responds with one of the only French phrases she know . Of naturally , humorously , this statement is just Emily saying she did n’t understand Camille and wanted her to repeat herself , as if she would find fault it up on the 2d try .
12"Don’t You Know What Happened To Jean Valjean When He Stole The Baguette?"
One of the thing thatdidn’t make sense inEmily in Parisseason 2was the random inclusion of Petra . The Ukrainian bookman in Emily ’s Gallic year ab initio seemed like a very courteous person who goes patronize with Emily . However , Petra discover she is in reality a stealer who simply runs out of the store with all of her items .
This act obviously horrifies Emily , who directly fears the kind of repercussions see to it inLes Misérables . In that story , Jean Valjean steal a baguet , and that one crime follows him throughout his entire life , crap it almost unacceptable to live a adequate life even years later . At least she prove her noesis of some scene of French acculturation . However , once again , she equates the veridical biography of living in Paris with what she saw in movie , bear witness more of her naiveness during the situation .
11"The French Are Romantics, But They’re Also Realists."
Mindy
Emily in Parismakes a lot of wholesale program line about the French and lifetime in Paris ( which was one of the reasons that the show was heavily criticized ) , but this is one quotation mark that does act . Gallic people have a repute for love story , and Paris is ( of course ) known as the most romantic city in the humankind . However , this stemma is all about balance . Yes , there is romance , butromance and practicality do n’t have to be reciprocally exclusive .
Of course , the caustic remark of this line is that the show itself is profoundly impractical in almost every way , and focused on the romance of living in this fictionalize interlingual rendition of Paris . This quote is another important deterrent example for Emily to memorise . Not only did she come to Paris with an American outlook on work - life balance , but she also came in with an idealized version of what the city and country were like based on movies and literature . She not only had to equilibrize work and life , but she had to balance love and naturalistic expectation .
