Hey

Well, well, well I always
suspected this day would come.

Hi Kirk.

You're not getting this seat back.

Huh?

You can't, it's mine now and frankly

I can see why you hogged it for so long.

What?

It's clearly the best stool in the joint.

Close to the cash register and the kitchen,

which guarantees plenty
of face time with the boss.

Climate wise it's positioned
between two air-conditioning vents

which creates a nice cross ventilation

- Hey Kirk
- …never.

You can have the seat. Hey

Hey.

- Coffee?
- Yes please.

All right, ah to stay or to go?

- Um… To stay.
- Good, okay.

- Lorelai.
- Hi ya doll.

Hey.

It's so nice seeing you back in here.

- Thanks.
- Been a long time.

What 9, 10 months.

Something like that.

Actually I can tell you exactly when

Lorelai was in her last
'cause I marked it in my calendar.

"May 22, 2006, stool
available?" it's important to

Enough Kirk, here you go.

-Thank you.
- So how's it going?

Oh really well. They inn is really busy.

Yeah I'll bet.

And so how are you doing.

Me? Good, really good.

- Good.
- Yeah.

Um, it sure is warm outside.

Yeah you know when
I opened the diner this morning

I remember thinking how warm it was.

- Really!
- Yeah.

You know what maybe I should take this to go.

To get back to work and.

Yeah. Yeah you said. There you go.

Lid on there.

Oh great.

-Nah, I got it.
-Thanks.

Okay so I'll see you around.

Definitely, I'll see you around. Okay.

-Bye.
- Bye.

Subtitle by Maglori

- Hi.
- Shh! Shh! Shh! Shh!

You called me.

Oh, no, not you.
I was talking to Davey. Hey.

Hey.

I was just calling to let
you know I'm not coming into work today.

No, no, no, no, no itching.
No itching. Just pat, pat. Par, pat.

Is everything okay?

Oh, everything's fine.
I just hate that stupid Rosie Milano

Ugh, is she the woman
at Davey's school with the big,

fake boobs who all the dads think are real?

No, but I hate her, too.

Rosie Milano is a little girl in Davey's class.

Oh. Interesting choice for your nemesis.

She came to school with the chicken pox.

Oh, no, I hate her, too. Davey and Martha?

Yeah. I mean, not terrible cases.

They've both been vaccinated,

but I'm up to my ears in oatmeal baths.

Plus I've got to find a hotel for Jackson

because the inn is
completely full -- "go, us," by the way.

Why does Jackson need to stay in a hotel?

He's never had the chicken pox.

I mean I know he's already
been exposed, so he may get them anyway,

but if there's a chance in
hell to avoid him getting them,

I'm gonna do it because
that man is a huge baby.

Well he doesn't need to stay
at a hotel, he can just stay at my place.

Lorelai, you are my
best friend in the entire world.

I could not sic Jackson on you.

Oh, please.

No, the man's a slob. This morning,

I could have killed him,
with the wet towels all over the floor.

It's so not a big deal.
Why waste money on a hotel?

Are you sure?

Yes. Please, end of discussion. He's staying with me.

Okay, well, thank you, and

I want you to remember
this moment because you offered.

Okay, well...

Okay. Well, I'm gonna pick him up

and bring him over to you around 6:00.

Yeah, that sounds good.
Hey, so I went into Luke's this morning.

What? Why didn't you cut me off?

It's not like the kids
have bubonic plague. How did it go?

- It was awful.
- Oh!

Yeah everybody was staring at us.

Oh, I'm sure they weren't.

Sookie.

Yeah, they were staring.

Yeah it was just awkward,
and neither of us knew how to act

I'm sure it seemed worse than it really was.

Uh, no. We hit the weather in the first minute

Well, it has been unseasonably warm,

but you know things will get better.

I don't know. Maybe
there's just too much history.

Oh, history, schmistory.

Couples have been
breaking up and becoming friends.

I mean look at Ryan
O'neal and Farrah Fawcett, huh?

Really Ryan and Fawcett that's the most

well-adjusted relationship you can come up with?

I mean I'm sorry. He's been in the news lately

-- that whole shooting-a-gun-at-his-son thing.

Hey, s-- oh! God.

What was that?

- I don't know.
- Oh!

Oh! It's coming from my car.

- Pull over.
- I am.

Pull over! Pull over! Pull over!

I am. I am. I-I've pulled
over. Hold on. I'm turning it off.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I think so.

Well, what was that?

You know, the carburetor?

Oh. Ooh, or maybe the alternator.

I think I better call Gypsy

That's probably a good idea.

- Okay, bye.
- Bye.

Finally. Doyle, she's here! Where were you?

Your "20th century poets"
class ended two hours ago.

Hey, Rory.

Hey, Doyle. I was
just dropping Logan off at the airport.

Oh yeah he has
that meeting in San Fran. When is it?

Tomorrow afternoon.

- Wish him luck for me.
- I will.

Seriously, you're gonna stand here making idle chitchat

on the single most important day of my life?

Sorry, sweetie. Paris has some news

Not some news, the news.

Responses from Harvard medical school,

Johns Hopkins school of
medicine, Penn medical, Yale law school,

Stanford law school, and Columbia medical.

And before you comment on envelope thickness,

keep in mind that so much stuff is online

these days that thickness
is no longer an accurate indicator.

Mm-hmm

I knew you would want
to be here, when I opened them.

Yeah, right. Thanks.

Go on, hon. Do it!

Okay. My lucky letter opener.

Used it to open the envelope conveying

my acceptance to Yale four years ago.

And don't look at me
like I'm some kind of superstitious freak.

It's just a precautionary device. If it works, great.

If not, I need it to open letters anyway.

I don't know which to open first. Choose one.

Okay... Yale law school.

Yale law school. Okay,
wow. That's a great school.

I'd be lucky to get in
there, you know? You open it.

- Me?
- You're lucky.
- I am?

How else do you explain the fact that

you got into Harvard and I didn't?

Oh, right, luck. Okay.

Use the letter opener!

Oh. Are you sure the letter opener's luck

isn't gonna cancel out my luck?

I don't know, is that how it works?

I was kidding. Sorry. Here we go. All right.

"Dear Paris Geller, we are pleased to inform you --"

I got in! Whoo!

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you.

Thank you. Thank you
so much for your participation

in operation finish line,
for your friendship, for everything.

You've always been an
inspiration to me, Rory Gilmore.

Aw.

I mean, the way you cut your ruthless path to

the head of the Yale daily
news and never looked back --

I never told you, but I really admired that.

Thanks?

And, Doyle, I know this process

didn't exactly bring out my soft and fuzzy side.

Doesn't matter. I love you,
baby, and I am so proud of you.

I love you, too. I just can't believe

I got into the second
best law school in the country.

It's such an honor! It
doesn't matter really if I get into the others.

I have a great option right here.

You do.

Yeah! Anyway, go ahead.
Might as well open Harvard,

even though it doesn't
matter. Use the letter opener again.

Okay. Okay.
"We are pleased to inform…"

Whoo! I got in! I got in!

All right!

Congratulations!

Bite me, Harvard, bite me!

Yeah, chock on it!

I'm tempted to reject them the same way

they rejected me that dark day
four years ago. Who's laughing now?!

Okay, um, so, next we have,
what? The university of Pennsylvania?

All right.
Let's see what it says.

All right. "We are pleased to inform…"

- In? I'm in? Yes!
- Oh!

-What's that about?
- Hmm?

Your noticeable drop-off in enthusiasm.

Is that a reflection of
the fact that you're less impressed by

my admission to the
university of Pennsylvania school of medicine

than you were by my other acceptances?

I'd say we're just as impressed. Wouldn't you, Doyle?

Oh, absolutely.
Because it's a pre-eminent institution in

the interrelated disciplines
of patient-care education and research.

- It's a great school.
- Mm, top-notch.

Fine, you've made your point.

Perception should play
a role in my decision-making process.

Well I guess that's what Doyle and I were saying.

I mean lets face it, you say "Harvard medical school,"

and people are automatically impressed

and that counts for something.

That's true.

SO you think I should go there?

Oh, well, that's not what
I'm saying -- or that you shouldn't.

I'm just... What I'm saying is
that you have all these great options.

Yeah.

I know. So, how do I decide?

Oh, you'll figure it out, hon.

How? This is a huge decision.

The biggest decision
I've had to make in my life.

Law school or med school?
I have two passions,

and obviously,
I'm vastly talented in both fields.

What muse do I follow?

Not to mention location-wise,

where do I want to live for
the next three or up to eight years?

Open the others.

Yeah?

Okay. Columbia.

Also a good school.

- "We are pleased…"
- Oh, god!

Paris you're just being silly, okay?
It's good to have options.

Yeah, right. You can say that
because there's only one thing you want.

Talk to me if you don't
get the New York Times fellowship

and you have to choose
between six other papers.

I'm sorry. I just meant it
must be nice to know what you want.

Well, "nice" -- yeah, that's one way to put it,

and "scary" is another.

You have a great shot at the Reston.

You do and with A.J. Abrams writing that rec...

Well I'm sure all the candidates
have great recommendations.

New York Times would be
lucky to have you.

Thanks. Well, I'll find out
soon enough, but come on.

This is your moment.
Should we open another one?

All right.
Hey, hey. You got into Stanford!

- Whoa! Someone's on a roll!
- Yay!

Enough with the hysterics.
I have a big decision to make,

and all this hooting and
hollering isn't exactly helping matters.

What do you mean you can't fix it, gypsy?

It's only eight years old.

Hi, come on in.
Everyone knows you can fix anything.

Sit down. Sorry I have guest,
make yourselves at home okay.

- Unh-unh-unh-unh.
- Wha

- Ignore Lorelai.
- What?

You are absolutely not to make yourself at home,

don't leave your clothes lying all over the house.

I won't.

Wipe your shoes off if
you go outside and come back in.

I will. Don't leave
them laying around

in the middle of the room or
anywhere where they can be smelled.

Sookie.

Just don't touch anything,
and hang up your wet towels.

I have stayed at other people's houses before.

I know. Why do you think I'm saying all of this?

And just try not to annoy Lorelai.

Believe it or not, I don't try to annoy other people.

Well congratulations,
because you have a natural talent.

- Sookie!
- What?

Nothing. Is that all?

No, I packed you a salad.

Eat it in the kitchen at the table on a plate.

Please do not make a mess.

I wanted to stay around
and say thank you to Lorelai,

but I should get back to the kids.

Yeah, yeah you should get back to the kids.

It sounded like that's gonna take a while.

Really?

Oh, yeah. They're talking about cars.

I mean that phone call could
take hours. Go, really.

- Call me if you need anything.
- I will.

And don't use Lorelai's home phone.

Kiss the kids good night for me.

I will.

Thanks for trying. Okay.
Thank you. Bye.

Sorry about that.

No problem.
Thanks again for letting me stay.

Oh, sure, my pleasure.
Have a seat. So, where's Sookie?

Oh you know she had to get back to the kids.

Oh. Well, how's she holding up?

O-okay. A little tense.
What's going on with the car?

Gypsy says I have to put it down.

What?

Yes. She said it
would be cheaper to get a new one.

She used the phrase "total internal destruction."

Wow.

I know. I guess that check-engine light
is not just a suggestion.

Not so much.

Although I'm proud. Total internal
destruction -- that sounds badass.

So what's next?

Uh, I guess I turn my evil
power on some new, unsuspecting vehicle.

Do you know what you're gonna get?

No. Any suggestions?

Honestly, I'm not a car guy,

but I can steer you toward a good tractor.

Al right. If I decide to get a tractor,
you're my guy.

Hey, do you need a ride
to work tomorrow?

Phil Henderson's gonna pick me up.

We could drop you off
on the way to the farm.

Well that's nice.
What time are you going?

About 4:45.

No, no, no. That's too early.
I'll take my bike.

You bike?

Well, I don't bike, but I have a bike.

There were about two weeks when Rory was 10

that we were really into biking.

Then we got over it and moved on to roller skating,

but for those two weeks, it was biking all the way.

12 years ago?

Is that how long ago it was? Oh, well. I'll be fine.

They must have the phrase
"it's just like riding a bike" for a reason.

Okay, so, I'm gonna get
a snack. You want to join me?

Uh, actually, no. Sookie made me a salad.

I'm making chicken nuggets.
I won't tell. Come on.

- Hello?
- Hi, mom.

Oh, why so blue?

I'm not blue.

Come on, talk to me.

All I said was, "hi, mom."

Are you missing Logan?
Is he getting back from San Francisco soon?

On Friday, but that's not why I'm blue.

I'm not even blue. Well, I'm not really blue.

Well, why are you not blue?

Well, Paris got into six schools yesterday,

which means she's definitely going to grad school,

and I'm happy for her.
I mean, I'm happy for Lucy and Olivia,

who signed a lease on an apartment in Manhattan well,

near Manhattan. And I'm happy
for this guy in my Shakespeare class

who just got recruited for
a think tank in Washington.

Wow, that's a lot of happy.

Yeah, that's just it. All of a sudden,

everyone seems to know
where they're gonna be next year.

Oh, and you're still waiting to hear?

Yeah. I mean, I really want the Reston.

And I think you're gonna get it, I really do.

But you have other places you're waiting to hear from.

I know, but to live in
New York city and work at the times.

Well, if I say it'll work out, does that help?

Not really.

- Consider it unsaid.
- Thanks.

What kind of think tank?

I know, I know I should have asked,

but I temporarily forgot
your fascination with think tanks.

Does the guy have a big forehead?

I always picture the
think-tank guys with big foreheads.

No, he has a pretty
average-sized forehead. Average to small.

Interesting.

Mm. Hey, why do you sound out of breath?

I don't know.

Did you have too much coffee this morning?

Haven't had any. I didn't go to Luke's.

Oh, I thought you were
going for a second run.

Well, maybe tomorrow.

Mom just do it, I know it's hard,

but you guys need to get over this hump.

I promise I'll go back.

It's just there's been a
lot going on with the car and everything.

Oh, what did gypsy say?

- It's bad.
- Uh-oh.

- Doorknobs.
- As in "dead as"?

- That's right.
- Why? How?

Oh, ours is not to wonder why.

But it was so young.

I know.

It just seems like
yesterday that we went to pick it out.

Yeah.

Oh. So new car, huh?

You should get a DeLorean like in "back to the future."

It's on the list right behind the Batmobile.

Although I'm enjoying the whole biking thing

What biking thing?

I'm biking to work right now.

What, now? Mom.

- What?
- Pull over.

- No!
-That's dangerous.

Oh, I'm fine. I've been
talking to you with a little ear thingy.

Well, pull over right now.

Okay, I'm pulling over, pulling over. Okay, I pulled over.

Yeah, I know you're not. I'm hanging up.

Okay, bye!

Hey, anything good?

- Um, here's one that comes
loaded with an entertainment pkg.
- "Package."

Right. Satellite radio, six-cd changer.

I'm just not sure if these
are cars or really expensive stereos.

Ooh, you should get a convertible.

I'm not a convertible person.

What is a convertible person?

You know, too tan, bad hair.

Hey, don't put the tomatoes in
until 10 minutes before you serve

Ooh! How about that little sports car?

Yeah, I don't know, I always
feel like sports cars have an attitude,

you know like they think they're cooler than other cars.

That's true, although from
where I'm sitting in my minivan,

they do seem a lot cooler.

So, thanks again for, you know, having Jackson.

I know how difficult he can be.

Oh, he's great.

Good. You can tell me the truth.

I know he's driving you crazy, right?

He's great. We had fun. We watched TV.

He went to bed early. It was fun.

Oh. He's probably on his good behavior.

He woke you up when he
got up this morning, didn't he?

- No.
- He didn't?
- No.

Oh, with all that stomp, stomp, stomping around.

Sookie, is everything okay with you two?

Oh, yeah, yeah. Fine, fine, fine.

He's just kind of getting
on my nerves a little, you know.

I'm just cranky. The little
one's keeping me up at night.

So, talk to me. What are you thinking?

How about a mini?

Oh, how about a Rolls-Royce?

Yeah, I'll consider that.

Or a Bentley, Aston Martin,
Mercedes, a BMW.

What are you doing,
just listing expensive cars?

Take out a second mortgage
on your home. It will be worth it.

Michel, be quiet.

People are impressed by fine automobiles.

It's how the world works.
Don't look at me like that.

I didn't make the rules. I just play by them.

Yeah, but you drive a golf.

Would you like to give me a raise?

Ignore him! Okay, here's what
I want you to do. Close your eyes.

Ooh, fun.

Now, I want you to imagine your dream car.

It can be anything you want.
You're backing out of the driveway.

You're driving through Stars Hollow.

"Good morning, townspeople!
Top of the morning to you."

Why am I saying "top of the morning"?

It doesn't matter what you say.

It matters what you're in.
Can you see what you're in?

I think I can see it!

Okay, what kind of car is it?

It's not really a car. It's more of a float.

A float?

In the shape of a swan, and I'm dressed all in white.

Okay, that's not a very practical car

Al right. What are you looking at?

I was trying to decide
if you could pull off a Ferrari.

Mm, you can't.

Maybe I'll get a really cool vintage car.

A used car? You cannot be serious.

What's wrong with a used car?

Would you buy a used toilet seat?

It's not really the same thing.

You're sitting in someone else's filth.

With pants on.

One can only hope.

Ew, Michel.

You don't know who drove it before.

No but I think I could have it cleaned.

Aw, you're right and I'm
sure they got out all the sweat,

body odor, and head lice
that a previous owner deposited.

Ew! Shouldn't you be
somewhere, like the reception desk?

- Suit yourself.
- Ew, ew.

I know. And now if you get a cool old vintage car,

I don't think I can sit in it.

Listen, don't worry. I'm getting a new car.

I have more money now than I did eight years ago,

and I can afford something
nice, you know, with all the perks.

Yeah, that makes sense.

I just don't know where to start.

I wish I could be more helpful.

- You know this is something Luke would be good at.
-Yeah

I mean, in the old days,
you know, before everything,

when we were just friends,

this is something I'd ask for his help with.

Well, I mean, maybe you could.

Could I? I couldn't. Could I?

You're talking. You're friends again

Well, sort of friends. We have a long way to go

Well, you will be eventually.

You think something like this
would help us get over the hump?

Yeah, and you've got a
built-in safe topic of conversation.

Yeah. Maybe I will.

Great. I think it's a great idea.

All right, me too. I'll let you know how it goes.

Okay, I'll be here.
Ooh. Hello? Hey, Jackson.

No. Whoa. Wait a -- wait a minute.

Wait, wait, whoa, whoa. You did what?

Hey. It's Lorelai. It's me. Hi. Are you busy?

Um, no, no, no. I just
had a -- I had a quick question.

It's kind of a favor, really.
Um, my car is totally shot,

and I need to buy a new car, and I just

don't know anything about it,
and I thought maybe sometime

and if you don't have time,
it's really no big deal but ma today?

Oh...yeah. I mean, it doesn't have to sure.

Yeah, we'll go look. Um, I don't know, like 1:30?

Can you pick me up at the inn? Hey, thanks. Bye.

I was gonna put the radio on,
but it's been pretty static-y lately.

Oh, I'm fine. I don't need music.

Yeah? Okay.

Thanks again for agreeing to come

No problem.

And again, I mean, it didn't
have to be, you know, today.

Oh, no, you know, the diner was slow,

and you can't keep riding that bike around.

Why does everyone act like I'm a really bad biker?

No, hey, I didn't mean it that way.

- I'm just kidding.
- Oh.

- It was a joke.
- Okay.

So, um, April left, right?

Yeah, but she'll be back in June.

Oh, for the big boat trip?

- Right, right.
- That's gonna be fun.

- Yeah.
- Are you excited?

- Yeah
- Oh, good.

You know, I don't mind a little static.

I was gonna say, it actually doesn't work that bad.

Have a nice life!

Doyle, is everything okay?

Oh, yeah, everything's great.

My girlfriend of 2 1/2 years
just broke up with me,

but other than that...

She did? Why?

Who knows? Maybe because she's psycho!

I am not psycho!

Oh, yes, you are!

What happened?

Take that back!

Ask Paris. I will not take it back because

you are a certifiable nut job!

And, hey, if you find out
why we broke up, let me know.

Oh, but, Doyle, where are you gonna go?

Crashing on my metro
editor's couch for a couple of days,

then I'll be back for my stuff. See you around.

See you around.

Is he gone?

Yeah. What happened?

- We broke up.
- But why?

I have a really big decision to make,

and I'm not about to let him influence it.

Was he trying to pressure
you into staying in Connecticut next year?

Well, no, not overtly,
but it was in the air.

And statistically,
taking into account my geographic

and socioeconomic background,

the chances of me remaining
with my college boyfriend are slim.

So how am I gonna feel in 20 years
when I look back

and realize that I based
such a huge decision

on some college guy who may or may
not make the holiday newsletter cutoff?

But you love him.

- Yeah, well, I'll deal.
- Paris.

- Look, I really don't want to talk about it, okay?
- Okay.

The good news is I came up
with a point system to evaluate

each institution based on faculty, earning potential,

location, prestige, and perception of prestige,

which I've decided is worth two points.

I'm not proud of that but
like you taught me with your U. .

Penn reaction, that's how the world works

Well, I'm glad to see you're making progress.

As if. Three more acceptances. It's crazy.

I mean I always thought that I'd be able to decide

between medicine and law
based on the quality of schools

I was offered entrance to,
but at this point, it's a toss-up.

Everyone wants me.

Well, I'm sure you'll make
the right decision.

Of course I will. What do
you think the point system's for?

Right. So, the mail got here.
Anything for me?

Nothing from the times.

It'll come.

Yeah, I know. It's just waiting sucks.

Yeah, it does.

Hey, it's Lucy! I just
wanted to give you a heads up for tonight,

8:00 P.M., Rich Man's Shoe.

Get ready to toast Glenda.

That's what we named
our new apartment. I'll tell you why later.

They named their new apartment?

I guess so.

Weird. So, you're gonna go?

Yeah, I was going to. Do you want to come?

I might as well.

I mean Doyle and I were
supposed to see a movie

but guess that's not gonna happen.

- Paris, are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

Trust me, it's not like I've been
dying to see "Blades of Glory" anyway.

I'd better get started on my
phone calls for the alumni surveys.

I was admiring it, you know?

And then I got to thinking
that I could make Martha one,

so I picked it up to see
what the support system was like,

only it was heavier than
I thought, and, well, I dropped it.

You dropped it.

Yes. And then I fell on it.

Jackson.

I was trying to catch it!

You broke the only thing from

Lorelai's childhood that she actually liked!

I know. I know!

- How could you?
- It was an accident.

Well why did you have to touch it?

I told you, I was just looking at it.

Well, you look with your eyes,
not with your hands.

Well, maybe we could,
you know, find a similar dollhouse.

Oh, good idea.

Let's just sneak it in in the middle of

the night like we did with Davey's goldfish.

I'm just trying to think.
Maybe I could try and put it back together?

Yeah, you're so handy.

Okay, you know what? That's enough.

What's enough?

I know what this is
about, and it's not this dollhouse

Of course it is.

No, it's not. This is about me
lying to you and you getting pregnant.

What are you talking about?

All this anger you have
toward me. That's where this is coming from.

It's not. I told you I'm excited about the baby.

I know but that's not the same as forgiving me,

which you haven't done.

- Yes, I have.
- No, you haven't.

- I have.
- You haven't.
- I have

- You haven't.
- Fine, I haven't! Are you happy?

No, I'm not.

Well... I don't want to be mad. I don't.

It's just that every time
my feet hurt or my back gets sore or

Davey and Martha have a tantrum or get the chicken pox,

I get scared about having a third kid.

And then I feel bad for feeling like that,

and then I get mad at you for making me feel like that.

I understand. I do. Heck, I'm still mad at myself.

It's just that at some point,
you are gonna forgive me eventually, right?

It's just sometimes it feels really overwhelming.

I know, but you got to let me back in.

- I want to. I do.
- Okay.

Okay. You were thinking
about making a dollhouse for Martha?

She'd really like that, wouldn't she?

Yeah. She would. Boy,
you really plowed into that thing.

- Oh, yeah.
- Hm

- Hmm.
- No?

No. Sorry it's taking so long.

No, not at all. It's a big
purchase. You're buying a car.

You should take your time. I mean,

I'm sorry if you feel like I'm rushing you

Oh, you're not.

No? Good. Because, you know, I've got plenty of time

Good, me too.

So, um, what didn't you like about that one,

specifically, so we can kind of narrow things down?

Um, the whole thing. I don't know. It's a feeling.

It's hard to explain like with the wrangler,

I just got in and I had a
feeling. I didn't get the feeling there.

- Yeah, right.
- Huh?

- Huh.
- Hmm.

- No, no. I just was clearing my throat.
- Oh.

How about a Prius?

Oh, yeah, I can't. Rory has one.

She doesn't like it?

No, she does. It's just
we made a pact no matching cars.

You know 'cause it's a slippery slope between

matching cars and then matching sweatsuits.

- Of course.
- Huh?

I just said, "of course."

Oh, okay. Yeah I'm sorry
if this is frustrating for you.

Oh, no, no, no. Not at all. It's not frustrating at all.

It's fun. But, I mean, look, if you want to leave

Oh, no, no. No, no, I'm having fun.

Good. Good, good, good.
So, what about a little hatchback?

Oh! Well, let's see here. Hmm.

It's got a power thingy in the console.

That could be convenient, you know,

if I need to use a hair dryer if I'm running late.

- That's useful.
- Oh. Excuse me.

- Yeah okay.
- Be right back.

Make them go car shopping with their exes.

Still awkward, huh?

Still? I'm gonna buy a car just to get out of here.

No, don't. Just leave.

I want to, and I can tell that he wants to,

but neither of us want to say that we want to.

Oh.

Yeah, I don't know how Ryan and Farrah do it,

'cause this whole friendship thing is not working out.

Oh. It'll be possible, eventually.

I guess. I just can't take it anymore. What's going on?

- Hmm?
- You called me.

Oh! Well, um, I just wanted
to see how things were going,

and now you told me really, really bad.

Yeah, add about 10 reallys to that.

Wow, 12. That's, um, wow.
Okay. Well, I'll talk to you later.

Yeah, okay, bye.

- Everything okay?
- Yeah, great.

All right, good. Look, I was talking to the salesman.

He said there's a bunch of other models that way.

- Great.
- Okay, so...

- Well?
- Well.

You've been talking about your jeep all day,

I know.

Comparing other cars to it.

- I know.
- Here it is.

I'm sorry.

But I don't understand. It's the same car.

It's not the same car.

What do you mean?

What do you mean? It's different.

It's not different. It's just a newer model.

No, it's different. The steering wheel,

the seats are different, the cup holder.

Okay there have been improvements.

They made some changes.

- Improvements.
- Says who?

What exactly is bugging you?

It's not bugging me per se. It's just it's different.

I don't get that feeling

- Oh, for god's sake.
- What?

- You're being ridiculous.
- Why?

You don't buy a car based on a feeling.

No. You don't buy a car based on a feeling.

It's not just me. It's the
whole rest of the population

Really? You took a poll,

and you know how everyone else buys their car?

I don't have to. I already
know what they're gonna say.

Well, I am the person buying the car,

and so the only opinion
that matters is mine.

Oh, that is so like you.

I mean this is bathroom tiles all over again.

- I was right about the tile.
- No, you weren't.

The tile was too big for the bathroom.

Tiles are not too big for a bathroom.

You buy the amount of tiles based on

their size that fit into the room you are tiling!

So narrow-minded.

That's not narrow-minded. Okay it's sane,

and here's a news flash for you, okay?

Sports cars don't think
they're better than other cars.

Okay. Hatchbacks don't
have SUV inferiority complexes.

- Now who's ridiculous?
- And sedans aren't afraid to get dirty.

You know what I think it is? That you're hungry.

What? No.

Sometimes you get like this when you're hungry.

I'm not.

I think I have some cookies in here, some Oreos.

I'm not and besides I wouldn't
eat anything that came out of that bag.

They're in a wrapper.

I can't believe you still
haven't cleaned that thing out.

Please.

How much time do you lose
a day looking through that thing?

5, 10 minutes? Multiply that by a year.

I bet you'd gain a month if you
just took an hour and cleaned it out,

but no -- what?

- Nothing.
- You're smiling.

What? No. You've got low blood sugar.

I do not have… okay,
are you gonna buy a car or not?

Not.

Okay can we get out of here, then?

Gladly.

And we're not listening
to any of that crap on the radio.

- It's not crap.
- Yeah, it's crap

It's Air Supply. You
know what you need a milkshake.

- We're not stopping for a milkshake.

- Okay let's rock, paper, scissors.

- No, no, no.
- So you forfeit?
- No, I

Well, that's how it goes.

If you don't play the game, then you forfeit.

- Let's get you in the car

- That means a giant milkshake for you, my friend.

We're not stopping.

-Chocolate. That's gonna set you up.
-We're not stopping. Not gonna happen.

- Hey, guys.
- Hey, Lorelai.
- Hiya.

- How's it going?

Oh, we're just enjoying the afternoon.

It's such A...nice day out. Come join us.

Okay.

Hey, how'd it turn out with Luke?

Oh, he got mad at me.

I'm sorry.

Oh, it was so great. I mean
we've been so polite to each other,

and I knew he was frustrated with me,

and I was definitely
frustrated with him, and finally,

he snapped, and we
started bickering, and it was nice.

- Ah.
- More normal, you know?

The fighting got you over the hump.

Yeah. I cannot find a car, though.

Did you see anything you like?

No. I mean kind of,
but they all have this new-car smell,

which apparently people like, but I don't like it.

I like the way my old car
smelled and the way the zipper got stuck

on the window and the little place where

Rory signed her name in permanent marker.

Lots of memories, huh?

It was the first new car I bought
and the car I taught Rory to drive in,.

and I know I have to move on.
I know that whatever new car,

tractor, float, I get will be great.

It's just been a more
emotional experience than I thought

-Makes sense.
- Yeah. It does.

What's wrong with you two?

We have to tell you
something, and it's really bad timing

because we're talking about memories,

and the thing we have to tell
you was associated with a lot of memories,

but we have to tell you, so I'm just gonna tell you.

- What is it?
- Jackson broke your dollhouse.

Oh. How broke?

In a box in pieces. Trust me, you don't want to look.

- Oh.
- I am so sorry.

No, it's my fault. I had you on edge.

I had him on edge. We're both so sorry.

Oh, no, that's okay. It was an accident.

Well, the good news -- not good news.

I mean, the not-quite-so-devastating news is that

we found someone online
that is apparently a wizard with,

you know, restoring dollhouses,

and we're driving all the pieces over there tomorrow.

Oh, thanks. I'm sure it'll be fine.

Yeah, everything can be fixed, huh?

Yeah. Is that why you guys are sitting out here?

Pretty much.

Oh. You want to head on in?

Sounds good. Yow.

That's a living room,
and our bedrooms will be here.

We're gonna put partitions up.

Aesthetically, Japanese screens would be nice.

But privacy-wise, we definitely need partitions.

- Well, it looks great.
-Oh, it's not great.

- owhere near great.
-What it is, is cheap.

Which is even better than great since the gallery

is paying me $21,000 a year,

and I'm gonna have to
start paying off student loans.

How, I don't know

We'll make a budget. You'll swing it.

I hope so.

Is it near the subway?

That's the best part.

It's right near the "W"
then you transfer to the 7 or the "N."

I wouldn't say it's the
best part. It's definitely a schlepp.

But it's a doable schlepp.

Totally doable. If you get
the Reston, you should look in our area.

Oh, I definitely will. Um,
hey, is there student housing at Columbia?

- you got into Columbia?
- Yeah.

You should go! How much
fun will it be when we're all in the city?

Maybe. Are you gonna finish that?

- Uh, no. Go for it.
- Olivia, darts?

You're on. Let's play for
the bedroom with the window.

- Paris, are you okay?
- Me? Yeah, sure.

- Come on.

I just miss him, you know. It's hard.

I know. You didn't have to break up with him, though.

Yes. I did.

Well, if you thought that he was pressuring you,

couldn't you have just talked to him about it?

- He wasn't.
- Well, then why?

It was me, okay? Doyle said to make my decision.

He said not to worry
about him. He said wherever I went,

we'd work it out. So I tried,
you know, not to think about him,

to take him out of the equation, but I couldn't.

Every time I tried to evaluate a school,

I'd immediately think about it in relation to Doyle.

"How close is it to him?
"Is there a good newspaper nearby?

What will the commute be like?"

Well, those are all valid questions.

No, they're not.

This decision is the culmination
of everything I've ever worked for,

everything. I should choose
a school based on its merits,

not based on its proximity to some guy.

But Doyle's not just some guy.

I know. But I'm only 22.
This wasn't supposed to happen yet.

I wasn't supposed to meet the guy until I was 30 and

clerking for a federal judge
or finishing up my residency

and when I knew where
I'd be when I was ready to settle down.

Yeah, but you can't plan everything.

I mean, you fell in love. That's a good thing.

Are you willing to make
a decision this big based on Logan?

Well, actually, we talked about it,

and we're gonna factor each other in.

What does that mean?

It just means we're gonna take each other

into consideration when we make decisions.

Okay. So carry that thought out.

Let's say you get The New York Times
fellowship and

Logan's meetings in San Francisco go incredibly well

and he wants to move there.
Do you take a job in San Francisco?

The chronicle is a perfectly adequate paper.

Or do you go to The New York Times?

The New York Times.

Then we're saying
the same thing, aren't we?

No, not at all.

You're saying your career
is your priority over your relationship.

They're both priorities.

But your career comes first.

Well, I didn't say it comes first. I --

I'm just not ready to make any sacrifices in that area yet.

But you are willing to
make sacrifices in your relationship.

Hence, your career is
more important to you, just like me.

Well, I wouldn't say "more important."

I guess I just thought that if Logan and

I have to do long-distance again, we'll make it work.

Sure. Maybe. Then again,
choosing to be apart might be...

choosing to be apart.

- Oh! Hey, Luke.
- Hey, Jackson.

- How you been, man?
- Uh, not too bad.

You want to come in?

Uh, no, that's okay. Is Lorelai here?

Yeah, hang on. Lorelai, it's Luke!

We thought you were the
pizza guy. We're getting pizza tonight,

with pepperoni and meatballs and sausage

and those extra-crispy, cheesy garlic knots,

and we're eating everything on the couch.

Well, that sounds...fun.

Yeah, right! Chicken-nugget appetizer?

I'm good, I'm good.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Oh, well, good to see you, buddy.

Yeah, you too.

What's going on?

Okay, here's the deal. I borrowed Kirk's computer,

and Zach got me on this craigslist thing,

and I found a 1999 jeep wrangler for sale.

The guy actually doesn't live
too far from here, so I went to see it.

It looks like it's in pretty
good shape. So I ran the VIN number.

It's got a clean history
- no accidents, no failed emissions.

And the guy said he kept it up pretty good,

and there's nothing really
wrong with it. So I took it for a test drive,

and it drove fine. So if you want to keep your old car,

for whatever crazy feeling it gives you, okay?

Then buy this guy's car, send it to gypsy.

She'll take the engine out, put it in the old car,

which makes absolutely no sense because you'd basically

be paying the same amount of money to fix your old car

as you would be paying to get into a new one.

But I'd still have my car.

Yeah, gypsy said it'll take about two weeks to finish.

Here's the number of the guy, Larry. That's his name.

I already negotiated him down 1,500 bucks.

Tell him you're Lorelai, Luke's friend. He'll know.

Thanks, I will.

It's still a completely ridiculous idea.

I know.

Al right. And, you know, in the meantime,

if you're still riding
that bike around, come by the diner.

I'll put some air in your tires.

I don't need air in my tires.

You need air, and you need a light and

a bell so people know you're coming.

What if I don't want people to know I'm coming?

I'm putting on a bell!

No, you're not!

What do you have against bells?

I don't like 'em.

Well, you don't have to
like them. They're a safety feature.

I want a horn!

Fine you want a horn,
I'll get you a horn. Are you happy?

Jeez.

So, I don't know where
I'll be, but I think I know what I'll be.

- Really?
- A doctor.

Oh, Paris, that's great.

It's always been my dream, you know?

Last night when I was lying
in bed watching the ceiling spin

I told you that last drink was a mistake.

It just became perfectly clear.
I've always wanted to be a doctor,

for as long as I remember. When I was a kid,

I used to cut the heads
off my dolls to see what was inside.

I'm guessing you didn't put that on your applications.

I let myself get swayed by
the promise of black-card corporate America,

but the truth is I want to be a physician --

always have, always will.

Well, I think it's a very noble profession.

Oh, yeah, definitely.
It's as close to being god as you can get.

- Hey, Paris. Hello, Rory.
- Hey, Doyle.

What are you doing here?

I live here.

Uh, yeah, but we agreed
you'd be the one to move out.

About that -- I changed my mind.

It's inappropriate for my best friend

to be living alone with my ex-boyfriend.

I don't want to live alone with her. No offense, Rory.

None taken.

We can't all live together. We're broken up.

Actually I changed my mind about that, too.

What do you mean? What is he talking about?

I don't think he wants to break up.

That's right I don't. Oh, and by the way,

I think you got into two more med schools --

Washington University and Duke.

You know I never saw myself
living in St. Louis or North Carolina,

but who knows? Maybe I'll end up there.

What are you talking about?

I love you, Paris Geller. You are the strongest,

most infuriating, most exciting woman

I have ever met in my entire life,

and there is no way I'm gonna let you go.

You don't have a choice.

Sure, I do. Just because
you don't want to base your decision

on me doesn't mean I can't base my decision on you.

That's absurd.

Anywhere you go, I'm going.

We're too young to do this!

Maybe you are, but I'm
older and a heck of a lot more mature.

So... you're saying that if I go to Alaska,

you're gonna move there, too?

Well, I've always wanted to go dogsledding.

That's ridiculous, with your low threshold for cold.

I'll wear warmer clothes.

You're not thinking clearly.

I've never been clearer.

Keep in mind I'm not going to look
for a school with good newspapers nearby.

Keep in mind that the internet is taking
off and I can write freelance from anywhere.

So that's your plan --
to be a freelance journalist?

No, my plan is to be with you.

Why are you doing this?

Because I love you, okay?

Well, I love you, too.

- That was sweet.
- Shut up.
