Allusions

 * Rory and Bridget both say the (often misquoted) line of “Hello, Clarice”. However, the real line is actually “Good evening, Clarice” and is from the 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs. The line of “Well, hello, Clarice” is from the 2001 film Hannibal when Hannibal talks to Clarice on the phone for the second time (whereas the quote of “Hello, Clarice” is spoken by Hannibal when he and Clarice talk on the phone for the first time as a callback to The Silence of the Lambs). Rory and Bridget were referencing Hannibal Lecter (who was played by Sir Anthony Hopkins in both films).
