The Gilmore Girls premiere in Los Angeles was a chance for the cast to catch up with each other, meet fans, and screen the first episode of the revival series on Netflix. What they didn't expect was to actually have to perform—but that's exactly what we made them do.

It's no secret that the show is known for its fast-talking characters, so what better way to honor the series then pick one of the most famous monologues from the series (Paris Geller's "Harvard" debate speech) and see who among the cast could say it the fastest? Unfortunately, a few of the cast forgot their reading glasses, but that only made their attempt even more hilarious. So, how did Liza Weil, who played Geller on the series, do with our challenge? And what about fast-talking pro Alexis Bledel? Check it out, below:

In case you want to try it yourself, here's the full monologue:

"You know, it’s funny, me standing here before you right now. I’ve thought about nothing else for four years but this school, this big important school with all of its history and tradition and really super teachers. And I dedicated myself to it completely, heart and soul, believing in its power, believing in its ability to get me where I needed to go. Harvard. I thought of nothing else. Many of you out there can attest to that fact. I was on my way and nothing could stop me. And here’s the really funny thing–after four years of slaving away, I go home today and I found this. [Holds up an envelope] I’m not going to Harvard. I got the tiny envelope, the one that reads, “Sorry, Paris. We’re not interested. Try again next year. Love, Harvard.” And the thing that’s really funny here is, who in the world deserves to go to Harvard more than me? Have you seen how hard I’ve worked over these past four years? I mean, can anyone here believe that I’m not going to Harvard. I can’t. I’m not going to Harvard. I am not going to Harvard. I had sex, but I’m not going to Harvard! And I have to tell you that if you asked me which of those two events I thought would be the least likely to happen, it would not be the not going to Harvard. I’m being punished. I had sex, so now I don’t get to go to Harvard. She’s never had sex. She’ll probably go to Harvard. She’s a shoe in. Pack your chastity belt, Gilmore–you’re going to Harvard!"

— Paris from the 2003 episode, "The Big One"
