[LAUREN GRAHAM VOICE OVER]

Previously, on Gilmore Girls.... [Cue 'La La' Music]

~~~~~

LORELAI: Oh, your nephew's coming to visit.

LUKE: No, he's coming to stay.

~~~~~

LORELAI: He doesn’t seem like the nicest kid.

RORY: Well, you don’t know him.

~~~~~

JESS: Why’d you call?

RORY: I . . um, I wanted to. . .

JESS: I’m glad you called.

RORY: Yeah?

JESS: Yeah.

~~~~~

JESS: Okay, so I just go straight and we’ll be back at Luke’s.

RORY: Good sense of direction.

JESS: Of course, I could turn right and then we’d just be driving around in circles for awhile.

RORY: Turn right.

JESS: As you wish.

~~~~~

RORY: I need you to be calm.

LORELAI: Calm about what?

RORY: Calm about what I have to tell you.

LORELAI: What – where are you?

RORY: I’m all right.

LORELAI: Well, of course you’re all right – why wouldn’t you be all right?

RORY: Because. . .I got in an accident.

~~~~~

LORELAI: Why did you bring him here?

LUKE: What?

LORELAI: If you hadn’t brought him here, none of this would’ve happened.

~~~~~

LORELAI: Go to hell!

LUKE: Right back at ya!

~~~~~

JESS: I made sure she was okay.

LUKE: I know you did.

~~~~~

MISS PATTY: I can’t believe Luke would send him off like that.

BABETTE: Well, I heard the kid wanted to go. I don’t know. All I know is that Jess is gone.

~~~~~

RORY: What?

JESS: I said, why did you come here?

RORY: Well -

JESS: I mean, you ditched school and everything. That's so not you. Why'd you do it?

RORY: Because you didn't say goodbye.

JESS: Oh. Bye, Rory.

RORY: Bye, Jess.

~~~~~

LORELAI: I guess we’ll never know until we try.

CHRISTOPHER: So, we try?

LORELAI: Yeah, we try.

~~~~~

CHRISTOPHER: And what do you think about all this?

RORY: I don’t know. What exactly are your intentions?

CHRISTOPHER: Excuse me?

RORY: Your intentions – are they honorable?

CHRISTOPHER: Completely honorable.

RORY: Yeah? Because we have been waiting for this for a really long time and we take disappointment extremely hard. I mean it, property damage is often involved.

CHRISTOPHER: Well, I better follow through on this, huh?

RORY: I think that’s an excellent idea.

~~~~~

CHRISTOPHER: Sherry’s pregnant.

LORELAI: Oh. Oh my.

~~~~~

CHRISTOPHER: I missed it before with Rory. I wasn’t there, I wasn’t apart of it.

LORELAI: I know.

CHRISTOPHER: And I never forgave myself.

LORELAI: I know.

CHRISTOPHER: So, what, I’m just. . .I’m gonna do that again? I’m just gonna take off, disappear?

LORELAI: No. You’re gonna go home.

~~~~~

JESS: I moved back.

RORY: But – what – why?

JESS: Just wanted to.

[Rory kisses him]


[End 'La La' Music]

Das ist passiert Und nun der erste Teil:

[CUT TO – Independence Inn - Afternoon]


(SOOKIE and JACKSON’S wedding reception is in full swing, everyone’s having a great time. Everyone except Lorelai and Rory.)

EMILY: (excited, finishing a mouthful of food.) Oh my god! This cake is amazing. It’s simply wonderful. Lorelai, have you tried this cake?

LORELAI: (distant) No, mom. I haven’t tried the cake.

EMILY: You must! Lorelai, I insist.

LORELAI: Ok, mom.

EMILY: (frustrated) Lorelai? Are you even listening to me?

RICHARD: Maybe she doesn’t want to try the cake Emily.

EMILY: Well I think she should. It’s amazing.

RICHARD: So we’ve heard.

EMILY: Have you tried the cake?

RICHARD: No, Emily. I have not.

EMILY: Well, you must!

(EMILY shoves a forkful of cake in RICHARD’S mouth. After a moment he raises an eyebrow.)

RICHARD: My, that is good!

EMILY: I said it was.

RICHARD: So you did.

(LORELAI sits and watches her friends and neighbors dancing and talking happily. She folds her arms across her chest and tries to hold back her tears.)

(RORY and DEAN are standing a few feet away from the makeshift dance floor. RORY has her arms wrapped around herself and DEAN doesn’t seem to notice that she’s distracted.)

DEAN: (hopefully) Do you wanna’ dance?

RORY: (hesitantly) I uh… new shoes.

(RORY points to her feet.)

RORY: Not ready for tearing up the dance floor just yet.

DEAN: Ok. Uh… do you want something to drink?

RORY: No. Thanks. I’m fine.

DEAN: You don’t seem fine.

RORY: I am though.

DEAN: (unconvinced) Ok. You’re fine.

RORY: Totally fine.

DEAN: Completely fine.

RORY: (smiling slightly) Could not be more fine.

DEAN: Good.

(RORY stares off across the lawn to where she and JESS kissed only a few hours before. DEAN frowns, realizes that she’s not fine at all.)

DEAN: I hear Sookie made shortbread.

RORY: (confused, she is pulled from her daydream) Huh?

DEAN: You like shortbread?

RORY: Yes.

DEAN: I can get you some.

(RORY tries to hide her frustration at his pestering and smiles a little.)

RORY: That would be nice.

DEAN: (happily) I’ll be right back.

RORY: Good.

(DEAN hurries off to get RORY some shortbread. RORY visibly deflates, as if she’s been holding her breath.)


[CUT TO – Gilmore House - Night]


(LORELAI kicks the front door open. And walks inside.)

RORY: (indifferently) You could have gotten your heel stuck in the wood.

LORELAI: (groaning) Don’t care.

RORY: We would have been short one front door.

LORELAI: Don’t care.

RORY: (raising an eyebrow) People would have been able to see you in your Hello Kitty pajamas.

LORELAI: Don’t care.

(Rory and Lorelai collapse in a heap on the couch. LORELAI rests her head on RORY’s shoulder.)

RORY: Great wedding.

LORELAI: The best.

RORY: Great food.

LORELAI: Like you ever doubted it.

RORY: Where’s dad?

(LORELAI closes her eyes and sighs.)

LORELAI: (sadly) He had to leave.

RORY: (confused) Leave? Why? He’s coming back, right?

(RORY sits up straight, forcing LORELAI to do the same. LORELAI looks at RORY apologetically.)

LORELAI: I’m sorry, babe. I wanted him to stay too, but…

RORY: (getting upset) Then why didn’t he? He promised! He said we’d be a family.

(RORY gets up and stands in front of LORELAI, her eyes tearing up. LORELAI’s do the same.)

LORELAI: (softly) He’s got to be someone else’s dad right now. Sherry’s pregnant.

RORY: But… what about us? What about me? I’m his kid too. He’s my dad too!

LORELAI: He is.

RORY: He promised!

(RORY starts to cry quietly and LORELAI gets up, wrapping her arms around her.

LORELAI: I know, sweetie. But he couldn’t walk away from Sherry. He couldn’t miss watching his second baby grow up the way he missed it with you.

(RORY opens her mouth to say something but no sound comes out. She hugs LORELAI tightly. LORELAI closes her eyes and hugs RORY back, wishing she could change things and make it right.)


[CUT TO – Main Street - Morning]


(RORY and LANE are walking and talking.)

LANE: (engrossed in her story) …So I told him, it’s not that you’re a bad singer. It’s that you’re a really bad singer. You are such a bad singer that I want to rip my ears off, roll them up and shove them in the bloody holes that remain, just so I can’t hear you!

RORY: (amused) And that was you letting him down gently?

LANE: Yes. Trust me.

RORY: (giggling) Wow. He must have been bad.

LANE: (seriously) He was. He was bad. Very bad. Unbelievably bad.

RORY: My mom bad?

LANE: Worse.

RORY: Wow… she’s going to be so disappointed when I tell her she’s not the worst singer in the world.

LANE: She’s the worst female singer in the world.

RORY: (thoughtfully) That might help.

(RORY stops, wondering where they’re going.)

RORY: I just realized I have no idea where you’re taking me.

LANE: I’m not taking you. You’re accompanying me.

RORY: Ok, where to?

LANE: Luke’s. My mom is busy yelling at someone about the church decorations. So I figure I have about 30 minutes to have a coffee and a donut, get home brush my teeth, pray, and hope she never realizes that sugar and caffeine entered my body.

RORY: (shaking her head defiantly) I can’t go to Luke’s.

LANE: Funny.

RORY: Serious.

LANE: Not funny.

RORY: Sorry.

LANE: Why? I thought you were ok with your mom and Luke being on not so great terms right now…

RORY: I am.

LANE: (confused) And so….

RORY: I can’t go to Luke’s…

LANE: …Because…

(RORY shifts uncomfortably from one foot to the next. Glancing at the diner and then down at the sidewalk.)

RORY: You know what? We’ll go to Doose’s and get you a whole box of donuts and then we’ll go to my house and get you a whole pot of coffee.

LANE: Doose’s donuts aren’t half as good as Luke’s.

RORY: I’m sure any third world country would be grateful for them anyway.

LANE: But I’m not in a third world country. I’m in Stars Hollow. I’ve been spoiled. I want nice donuts.

RORY: No, you don’t.

LANE: Rory, do you know what I had for breakfast?

RORY: (cringing) Does it start with Tofu?

LANE: Nope, but there was mucho soy involved!

RORY: I’m sorry.

LANE: Me too. (pouting) I want a donut.

RORY: I want world peace. It’s not happening today though, and neither is you getting a donut from Luke’s.

LANE: (giving in) You’ve totally flipped.

RORY: Years ago. Let’s go to Doose’s.

LANE: (reluctantly) Fine.

(RORY links her arm with LANE’s and they head for Doose’s Market.)


[CUT TO – Doose’s Market - Morning]


LANE: You owe me.

RORY: I know.

LANE: If I ever need a liver I’m taking yours. I don’t care if it’s not a match.

RORY: (smiling slightly) Noted.

(RORY and LANE browse to aisles in search of Donuts. DEAN comes up behind them.)

DEAN: Hey!

RORY: (surprised) Dean.

LANE: Hey.

RORY: (making unnecessary excuses) Lane needed a donut. I just came with her. She had soy for breakfast.

DEAN: (amused) Ok…

RORY: I owe her my liver.

DEAN: I see.

RORY: (blushing) Hi.

DEAN: (chuckling) Hi.

LANE: Where are the donuts?

DEAN: You don’t want them. Trust me. They’re all past their expiration dates.

LANE: (frustrated) Why is the world against me and my donut?!

DEAN: Go to Luke’s. His are better any way.

LANE: I’m not allowed to go to Luke’s.

DEAN: (frowning) What did your mom catch you doing this time?

LANE: Nothing. Rory won’t let me.

RORY: I…

DEAN: Why won’t you let her go to Luke’s?

RORY: I never said she couldn’t go. I just… said I wasn’t going.

(DEAN looks suspicious and turns to LANE for an explanation.)

LANE: Don’t look at me. I just want a donut!

DEAN: What’s wrong with Luke’s?

RORY: Nothing is wrong with Luke’s.

DEAN: Then why won’t you go there?

RORY: I felt like a change.

DEAN: (raising an eyebrow at her) You’re afraid of change.

RORY: (sarcastically) I’m training for Fear Factor.

(DEAN and LANE both look thoroughly confused.)

RORY: (feeling accused) Can’t a person… Why is it so hard to believe that… I’m going home.

(RORY turns and walks towards the exit. LANE shrugs at DEAN and hurries after her.)


[CUT TO – Main Street – Morning]


(LANE catches up to RORY and falls into step beside her. RORY is walking quickly.)

LANE: Hey… slow down Sergeant Major! The troops are working on an empty stomach here.

RORY: You can go to Luke’s now.

LANE: (breathless) I’d much rather find out why my best friend has crossed over to the dark side.

RORY: (upset) I don’t want to talk about it.

LANE: What ‘it’?

RORY: Not ‘it’. No ‘it’.

LANE: I sense an ‘it’.

RORY: You’re working on an empty stomach, like you said. Your senses are whacked.

LANE: My senses are fine.

(LANE grabs RORY firmly but gently by the arm and spins her around so they’re facing each other.)

LANE: (determinedly) Spill ‘it’.

RORY: (nervously) Not here.

(RORY and LANE continue in the direction of the Gilmore’s house.)


[CUT TO – Gilmore House – Morning]


(LANE and RORY enter.)

RORY: (calling) Mom? Mom, are you home?

LANE: I thought she’d be working.

RORY: (sighs) Just checking.

LANE: So… can you tell me now?

(RORY pulls LANE into her room and shuts the door.)

RORY: You can’t tell anyone.

LANE: I swear.

RORY: And you can’t do that bouncy ‘oh my god’ thing you do.

LANE: (defensively) I’m a cheerleader.

RORY: You’re my best friend.

LANE: Ok.

RORY: Jess is back.

LANE: Wow. He’s insane.

RORY: What?

LANE: He broke you. The whole town wants to break him.

RORY: (remembering) Oh.

LANE: (confused) Why would he come back? He hates us. We hate him…

RORY: I don’t hate him.

LANE: You see the good in everyone. Even when there ain’t much good to be seen.

RORY: Lane…

LANE: Sorry. He’s your friend. I respect that…

RORY: I kissed him.

LANE: (shocked) Oh…

RORY: Don’t say it.

LANE: Oh… my… word?

(RORY rolls her eyes and sits on her bed next to LANE.)

LANE: When did you kiss him? Why did you kiss him? What about Dean? Do you like Jess?

RORY: Too many questions.

LANE: Sorry.

RORY: I kissed him at Sookie and Jackson’s wedding. I kissed him… (sighs) because he… I don’t know why I kissed him.

LANE: You don’t know why?

RORY: No… I mean… (looking down at her hands) No.

LANE: Not even a little bit of an idea why?

RORY: (frustrated at herself) I don’t know. Maybe… there’s a teeny, tiny possibility that I may… somehow, in some alternate universe ‘the world is distorted beyond recognition’ way… have feelings for him.

LANE: Feelings of…

RORY: (shrugging) Like…

LANE: Like like?

(RORY nods.)

LANE: What about Dean? Do you still love him?

RORY: Yes. I… think so.

LANE: Do you love Jess?

RORY: No! Nuh uh! No!

LANE: But… you kissed him…

RORY: Yeah…

LANE: In a public place. With your boyfriend, that you think you love, in the near vicinity.

RORY: Yeah… Maybe…

(RORY looks thoughtful and then flops back on her bed. LANE copies her.)


[CUT TO – Luke’s Diner – Afternoon]


(LUKE is taking KIRK’s order and JESS is making a fresh post of coffee.)

LUKE: (agitated) Shut up.

KIRK: Are you talking to me?

LUKE: You’ll know when I’m talking to you, Kirk.

KIRK: You were looking at me.

LUKE: I wasn’t.

KIRK: You were looking at my menu.

LUKE: Your menu isn’t you.

KIRK: (wounded) It still hurt.

LUKE: Shut up.

KIRK: You were talking to me that time.

LUKE: (sarcastic) Perceptive.

(LUKE turns around and heads for the kitchen.)

JESS: Your customer service skills are outstanding.

LUKE: This coming from the guy who told Andrew to stick his hotdog where the sun doesn’t shine just because he asked for mustard?

JESS: I didn’t say that.

LUKE: I toned it down.

JESS: It doesn’t sound as good without the profanity.

LUKE: You get the idea.

JESS: My point still stands.

LUKE: Your point is?

JESS: I can be rude to any of the freaks that come into this dump. You, on the other hand, run this little slice of hell. Therefore you need to take your customers more seriously if you wish for them to continue to frequent this not so fine establishment.

KIRK: He’s right.

JESS and LUKE: Shut up, Kirk.

LUKE: You want a black eye?

JESS: Nope.

LUKE: You want a paycheck?

JESS: It sure would make my life complete.

LUKE: Then do some work!

(LUKE walks away and JESS smiles to himself, turning back to making coffee. DEAN enters the Diner and approaches the counter.)

DEAN: Can I get a…

(DEAN stops when JESS turns around.)

JESS: Would you like a children’s dictionary with that? It might help you understand the big words on the specials board.

DEAN: (coldly) Jess.

JESS: (mockingly) Bag boy.

DEAN: You’re back.

JESS: (proudly) Yes I am.

(DEAN’s face takes on an expression of realization at why Rory was avoiding the diner. JESS ignores him and goes back to work.)
