Speaker 1: I am all in.
Speaker 2: Kiss you.
Speaker 3: I am all in with Scott Patterson an iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1: Everybody Scott Patterson, I am in vodka. While our production
Speaker 1: is iHeartRadio, I Heart Media, I Heart Podcast. Season seven,
Speaker 1: Episode eight, introducing Lorelei Planetarium. And I think we can
Speaker 1: tell by the title that this was is going to
Speaker 1: be one rollicking affair.
Speaker 4: I thought it was a missed opportunity to call this
Speaker 4: episode introducing Lorelei Hayden.
Speaker 3: I have breaking news. And I liked the episode, but
Speaker 3: I didn't get the title.
Speaker 5: I was like, I don't get it.
Speaker 6: Just before we started, I was like, I don't get it.
Speaker 3: Une understood it, Susanne explain.
Speaker 2: So there's a famous planetarium that's called Hayden Planetarium. So
Speaker 2: I think they were trying to do what you just said, Danielle,
Speaker 2: but they were trying to be like extra intellectual about it, right,
Speaker 2: And instead of saying Laura la Hayden, they called her Laura.
Speaker 1: People for the title was so strong and so mysterious
Speaker 1: that people that weren't Gilmore friends would be hooked to
Speaker 1: invepticate what the heck that means, because what was it?
Speaker 4: Season two or three was introducing Lorlai Gilmore, right or
Speaker 4: something like that. Oh yeah, so it's like this should
Speaker 4: be introducing lour Lai Hayden, like so dumb planetarium all
Speaker 4: of it.
Speaker 3: But at the end of the episode of the podcast,
Speaker 3: I have a little treat for everybody.
Speaker 6: So let me.
Speaker 1: Just be honest with you here, ladies and gentlemen. I
Speaker 1: was all on fire rip roarn, snort and ready to
Speaker 1: go held down for leather to to just take this
Speaker 1: part show apart. But you know what happened. I'm dealing
Speaker 1: with a dying baby rat right now. Uh my wife
Speaker 1: has such a gentle heart that she's I came home
Speaker 1: and she's attempting to save this dying baby rat. So
Speaker 1: we have it in a box outside. We're giving it grapes,
Speaker 1: we're giving it lettuce. We're trying to syringe water into
Speaker 1: its mouth, which is the last thing you want to do.
Speaker 1: Because I I looked up the Pittsburgh Society of Ratlovers
Speaker 1: dot org plague. I don't have bubonic plague.
Speaker 5: You know what the rat could I didn't.
Speaker 1: I'm not a rat ologist, and I'm not a licensed
Speaker 1: medical technician that deals with rats. I'm not a veterinarian.
Speaker 1: So I didn't run any tests on the thing. But
Speaker 1: he's awfully cute and he squeaks.
Speaker 4: You know what, justice for the rat. I think rats
Speaker 4: are cute.
Speaker 1: And I you know what I realized. I realized, I
Speaker 1: right now am living a Gilmore Girls scene. This is
Speaker 1: a Gilmore Girls scene. This is something that Laurel I
Speaker 1: would do. This is this is why this show, even
Speaker 1: though it's maybe season seven, I wouldn't call it a
Speaker 1: home run, would you know? Okay, fine, but it's still
Speaker 1: people caring about each other in the way that they do.
Speaker 5: This episode was improved.
Speaker 1: It was and caring about each other. And you know,
Speaker 1: I actually got a little emotional taking care of the
Speaker 1: rat while my wife was away.
Speaker 3: Is this a rat like that came into your yard?
Speaker 5: Like you got it at the at the store.
Speaker 1: No, once in a while a rat shows up in
Speaker 1: the pool and is not good.
Speaker 3: This is not good.
Speaker 1: The rats all over So in California there's ivy. Where
Speaker 1: there's ivy, there's rats.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 3: I was at a house the other day and there
Speaker 3: was so much ivy and my was like, how many
Speaker 3: rats do you thinker in that I but I would
Speaker 3: rather run into a bear than a rat.
Speaker 5: I am not good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, bear a bear, you have no chance of survival
Speaker 1: with a.
Speaker 3: They're totally fine. I run into bears regularly in.
Speaker 5: Tahoe and you just walk away.
Speaker 3: You don't bother them.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 8: I just saw this video and like, I think it
Speaker 8: was like ABC or something, But in Monrovia there was
Speaker 8: a bear in two cubs who went swimming in someone's.
Speaker 4: Backyard Easton Allen and if he is listening and wants
Speaker 4: to chime in, he gets bears all the time at
Speaker 4: his house.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we do.
Speaker 9: They were going to build a hunting lodge in Monrovia,
Speaker 9: the town I live in, and they brought in all
Speaker 9: the problem bears from like Yosemite and Yellowstone, and then
Speaker 9: they ran out of money and couldn't build a hunting lodge,
Speaker 9: and so now we're on like fifth generation bears of
Speaker 9: just eating people's garbage, like hanging out atas.
Speaker 3: I was on Instagram in this restaurant in Tahoe. The
Speaker 3: caption was this is why we can't have nice things,
Speaker 3: And you just then see the video and the bear
Speaker 3: just like tore open in the garage and it's like, yeah,
Speaker 3: but no, I am less afraid of a bear than
Speaker 3: I am a rat.
Speaker 4: Oh, I like them all.
Speaker 1: A rat can't run thirty miles an hour and chase
Speaker 1: you up, betray and eat.
Speaker 2: You line too.
Speaker 4: I shot into this episode after the break.
Speaker 3: Yes, I like it. This is a good episode.

Speaker 2: Remember, people are gonna get mad.
Speaker 4: This is season seven, Episode eight, introducing Lorelai Planetarium air
Speaker 4: date November twenty first, two thousand and six. Lorelai and
Speaker 4: Christopher tell Rory they got married in Paris, but she
Speaker 4: isn't too happy about it.
Speaker 6: Wag the same.
Speaker 4: There's so many flags, you guys. They can't I can't
Speaker 4: even comprehend all of them. Logan launches his new internet
Speaker 4: company while Rory is making connections for her journalism career
Speaker 4: by writing a judgmental article. Meanwhile, April is still living
Speaker 4: with Luke but turns to Lorelaie for help when she
Speaker 4: faces the medical emergency.
Speaker 3: That was awesome Flags first, Tara, this is really your
Speaker 3: flag that I concur.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was all the fun with Amy yesterday and
Speaker 8: I couldn't hold it in and so I was like,
Speaker 8: I need to tell you my flag with.
Speaker 4: This episode this involved burgers.
Speaker 6: No, no, I can't wait for that.
Speaker 8: It takes a very long time to legally get married
Speaker 8: in another country, right, Yeah.
Speaker 6: So Amy and I were.
Speaker 8: Going back and forth because I was like, like it
Speaker 8: was last minute and not like they had a marriage
Speaker 8: license and they cleared it in France. But Amy's like, oh,
Speaker 8: well it could have been like someone officiated it.
Speaker 3: They're married, but they were they're not legally married.
Speaker 8: But like the way they said it in the show
Speaker 8: is like we got married, like they could have said
Speaker 8: to Rory, we got engaged.
Speaker 3: Well, I think they think they're married because they said
Speaker 3: do you I do?
Speaker 5: Do you I did?
Speaker 3: Even though it's only like by the power invested in
Speaker 3: me by some dude in France, right, Like it's not
Speaker 3: legal yet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a whole general thing. Remember how he was
Speaker 4: married but not legally married because they got married in
Speaker 4: Brodie Jenner, but he got married in like Bali or something, Yeah,
Speaker 4: but didn't get married in the US. So it was
Speaker 4: technically not legal, but in Bali he's married.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I guess it just bugged me because I felt for
Speaker 8: Rory in that sense, like I would be mad too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh god, yes.
Speaker 3: First of all, whether they're legally married or not, I
Speaker 3: felt for her.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I one person they should consider because it's their offspring exactly.
Speaker 4: You know, like, if there's any one person that should
Speaker 4: be there, it should be her.
Speaker 1: I just felt sorry for Rory because she had to
Speaker 1: be in the episode.
Speaker 3: I actually liked this episode, and we'll get to it.
Speaker 3: But when you and Lauren, Luke and Loralai are reunited,
Speaker 3: you realize, oh yeah, that's why I love this show. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was the one thing I wanted to say
Speaker 4: about this episode. The reason why I liked it so
Speaker 4: much is because we were talking about this last episode
Speaker 4: how all the dynamic duos were not together. By the episode,
Speaker 4: you have Luke and Lurlai, you have Rory and Logan,
Speaker 4: you have even I mean fine whatever, Lorlai and Christopher
Speaker 4: in April and Luke like you have, you have the
Speaker 4: people that you want interacting with each other, interacting with
Speaker 4: each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they are people caring about one another. They might
Speaker 1: not be our dream matches. But they are caring about
Speaker 1: each other. They are taking care of the baby rat.
Speaker 1: They're trying to feed the baby rat.
Speaker 8: I just really I wish we had try I wish
Speaker 8: we had Emily and Richard, like I'm missing, they.
Speaker 4: Are the only ones missing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we haven't seen them for a couple episodes.
Speaker 3: H to take it to the top. Take it to
Speaker 3: the top.
Speaker 2: So the opening, they've just gotten home, luggages all over
Speaker 2: the place. Lorelai is on the phone with Rory and
Speaker 2: frantically leaving a message call me back, call me back,
Speaker 2: call me back. Christopher makes her hang up and then
Speaker 2: immediately launch into his proposal for redecorating her house. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Barco Lounger, Waterfall, flat screen TV.
Speaker 5: And he says he's kidding, but he's.
Speaker 2: Not kidding about the flat screen. I don't know. I
Speaker 2: thought that was a little heavy handed. It's like, you
Speaker 2: lived here for fifteen minutes and you're already trying to
Speaker 2: redecorate the place that's decorated.
Speaker 3: But he does live there now, and so does his kid,
Speaker 3: so I sort of was like, I get it. I
Speaker 3: was trying to find another room for the kit I'm
Speaker 3: like me too.
Speaker 2: I was like she go, yeah, and she's in Paris,
Speaker 2: so she doesn't need a room right this instant, Like
Speaker 2: they could wait a few weeks.
Speaker 4: I'm just annoyed that, like Christopher is not acknowledging that
Speaker 4: Rory's is his kid too. I don't know, like it's curiating,
Speaker 4: but it's like he's like, gg needs a room, Like.
Speaker 3: What about she's graduating college, Like she's not really going
Speaker 3: to live there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but.
Speaker 3: There's got that can't just be a two bedroom house.
Speaker 3: There's got to be another room.
Speaker 6: There has to be another room upstairs.
Speaker 1: What about the fact that he's loaded. Man, I'm loaded.
Speaker 1: I'm so well, no, buy a new house, got a
Speaker 1: big house, the pool well.
Speaker 3: Moving right, I know he could buy a.
Speaker 1: Table, outdoor grill, you know, a couple acres somewhere out
Speaker 1: there in Connecticut.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 8: But I agree with the timing, Susanne. It's been like
Speaker 8: four minutes since they walk through the door.
Speaker 3: Like we don't need to talk about this right time
Speaker 3: for the flat screens.
Speaker 4: Though, Yeah, that I agree. I'm like, and I was
Speaker 4: thinking to myself back in two thousand and six, those
Speaker 4: old TVs weren't a thing, Like they.
Speaker 2: Were not right, So yeah, we were all buying flat screens.
Speaker 1: But the problem with flat screens were the sound was lousy,
Speaker 1: so you had to hook up a five five that's
Speaker 1: right point to sound system in your ceiling, which is
Speaker 1: an extra a couple of grand or whatever.
Speaker 7: They were really expensive they are now.
Speaker 2: But I did kind of agree with Christopher when he
Speaker 2: mentioned that as much as Laura, I and Rory liked
Speaker 2: to watch TV, it was surprising that they had such
Speaker 2: an old TV. You'd think that they would prioritize something better.
Speaker 8: But I also just thought of it like stars hollow,
Speaker 8: like old timey. I don't know, that's why I thought
Speaker 8: it was maybe normal, but I could be wrong.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So then Rory does call back.
Speaker 2: She had been asleep, that's why she didn't answer the phone.
Speaker 2: Laurelai is very insistent that she come over for dinner.
Speaker 2: It has to be that night, because she brought back snails,
Speaker 2: which apparently was the only word that she could think
Speaker 2: of while she was on the on the.
Speaker 1: Phone sequence had me rolling.
Speaker 2: And then well, you know, when they were talking about
Speaker 2: the snake Emporium, I did kind of chuckle a little bit.
Speaker 3: Together, I just became obsessed with trying to figure out
Speaker 3: how you could possibly bring home snails. The refrigeration alone required,
Speaker 3: who's that es cargo?
Speaker 2: Raise your hand? I have not no.
Speaker 1: Remember dan Tanna's they had the.
Speaker 8: Best is still around, still around, It's still open.
Speaker 3: Yes, God lives so far now can't get to d'antanna's.
Speaker 2: So Lorolay is very upset and stressed out that Rory
Speaker 2: still doesn't know that they got married. She doesn't want
Speaker 2: to tell her on the phone. She wants to say
Speaker 2: it in person, and then Chris reassures her that it's
Speaker 2: everything's going to be fine. And this is to your
Speaker 2: point earlier, Danielle, this was this was bothering me because
Speaker 2: Christopher is just minimizing Rory's feelings. Multiple times he says, Oh,
Speaker 2: she's gonna be fine with it, don't worry about it,
Speaker 2: she'll love it. He never like really.
Speaker 4: It's kind of gross, Like he's like, oh, she's gonna
Speaker 4: be fine with us getting married. Oh, she's going to
Speaker 4: be fine. That gens taking her room, like all the thing,
Speaker 4: you know, Like he's so I mean, it's obvious he's
Speaker 4: just so not a dad to her.
Speaker 2: Like it's exactly, you know, exactly minimizing her opinion, like
Speaker 2: but don't speak for her. It just really bothered me
Speaker 2: that he kept doing that. And so then it went
Speaker 2: into the credits. So that was that whole thing. That
Speaker 2: was a pretty long opening.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. Credits went really well.
Speaker 5: The credits were good.
Speaker 2: Yes, everyone did a really nice job in the credit.
Speaker 2: So then we go to the hallway outside of Rory's
Speaker 2: apartment and she's on the phone with Logan talking about
Speaker 2: basketball or something, and she opens the door and he
Speaker 2: surprises her because he's in the.
Speaker 3: Same stick again. For me, I liked it was happy.
Speaker 5: But like, yeah, like the thing on the roof, Yeah.
Speaker 8: It's like we thought we've seen this before, but okay,
Speaker 8: at least I acknowledged he did it again.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, like, yeah, I like she was happy.
Speaker 3: He was cute.
Speaker 4: He was cute.
Speaker 3: All those hair is weird, and we'll get to that.
Speaker 3: His hair is really I know, and she really.
Speaker 1: Yeah it's a little poofed.
Speaker 3: And kind of too much bangs and then she like
Speaker 3: needed some product and yet she comments on how great
Speaker 3: his hair is, which I was.
Speaker 5: Like, irony.
Speaker 2: But anyway, so he talks about they're having a launch
Speaker 2: party for the new business, and Bobby has pulled out
Speaker 2: all the stops for the pr which is it's weird
Speaker 2: that like they're just planning the party that day. I
Speaker 2: didn't quite understand how you pull off the person parties.
Speaker 4: You can't do that.
Speaker 3: You can't, Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 4: You just can't get people to go. Like, if I
Speaker 4: don't know ten years in advance, I have to go
Speaker 4: somewhere at five pm on a Thursday, I'm not doing it.
Speaker 5: And I'm just not.
Speaker 2: Exactly. So Rory again brings up Bobby and that she
Speaker 2: doesn't like credit for using the word swarthy, that that
Speaker 2: got some brownie points. So she's still annoyed by the
Speaker 2: fact that Bobby's a man not a man. And then
Speaker 2: this is when Logan drops the bomb that he's moving
Speaker 2: from London back into the area and so he's gonna
Speaker 2: get a new apartment and she tells him to take
Speaker 2: his stuff and he's like, no, new apartment, new stuff,
Speaker 2: Like okay, whatever, dude, And so then he's he says
Speaker 2: he'll take the suit of armor, whose name is Henry,
Speaker 2: we find out in case you were.
Speaker 5: Wondering to keep the apartment.
Speaker 3: She's like, oh, I'll move, okay, Why that's not the
Speaker 3: smartest thing.
Speaker 6: R but Okay, then.
Speaker 4: I get it, do the same thing.
Speaker 3: I think if they're together, I have no problem. He's
Speaker 3: so loaded, like, okay, I'll just stay here.
Speaker 2: It's fine, right.
Speaker 4: I think she's trying to establish her independence. I kind
Speaker 4: of get it.
Speaker 3: I mean, that's too gooder of you.
Speaker 4: All I can say is that, obviously it's my first
Speaker 4: time watching the series, as everyone knows, but I've acknowledged
Speaker 4: that Bobby is going to be a problem. Am I
Speaker 4: on the right track or no?
Speaker 3: Well, we're not going to answer that.
Speaker 2: You're just gonna have to keep watching.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she seems like she's going to be a problem anyways.
Speaker 1: She was born to make trouble.
Speaker 2: So then we go to a cute scene Luke and
Speaker 2: April at Luke's apartment, so we know she's still staying
Speaker 2: there while Anna is wherever Anna went. I guess her
Speaker 2: mom had surgery or whatever. They're talking about the boy
Speaker 2: girl party and Luke wants to know if there's going
Speaker 2: to be kissing, and so April's like the gross dad,
Speaker 2: it was this, I likenes. I thought it was very cute.
Speaker 2: And did you watch how she did the salt? Did
Speaker 2: anybody notice that all she took the salt shaker, and
Speaker 2: she poured them on the plate, and then she poured
Speaker 2: them in her hand, and then she took what was
Speaker 2: in her hand and put it on the plate.
Speaker 6: She needed something to do with her hands.
Speaker 4: I want to measure the assault you're putting on, you know,
Speaker 4: sometimes where you just put it on.
Speaker 6: It just can't see it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 4: It was cute though, So this is where sorry, Scott,
Speaker 4: you you're part of my red flag on this episode.
Speaker 4: Scripty was just off duty and really didn't didn't nail
Speaker 4: the continuity.
Speaker 1: The hamburger needed to be in the hand when they
Speaker 1: cut to her POV and there was a fork with
Speaker 1: a fry in and.
Speaker 4: I know, really, and then I came back to the burger.
Speaker 4: I'm like, he just had a fork in that hand.
Speaker 4: And then not only that, he like he took a bite, which,
Speaker 4: by the way, Scott, you were eating the burger, like
Speaker 4: I know, everyone like moves the.
Speaker 1: I'm a good actor eater, Yeah I can, I can
Speaker 1: actually eat.
Speaker 4: I was like, you committed. I don't even know how
Speaker 4: many burgers you had to eat for that matter.
Speaker 1: What you do, you chew them and then you spit
Speaker 1: them out in a bucket.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but you took a bite, and then it
Speaker 4: panned to April for not even negative two seconds, came
Speaker 4: back and there was three bites of the burger out.
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I thought I was going to get away.
Speaker 1: I actually knew I wasn't going to get away with
Speaker 1: that one. I knew some flags were going to come
Speaker 1: at me as soon as I.
Speaker 4: But it's still such a cute scene.
Speaker 2: And so we see like the little blue checkered tablecloth
Speaker 2: that they bought a target. I just I thought it
Speaker 2: was cute.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 2: There's something dad and asked like the dad like questions
Speaker 2: like are you allowed to go to a boy girl party?
Speaker 2: And I just thought it was a nice little kind
Speaker 2: of domat stick normal scene, yep.
Speaker 3: And cute chemistry between the two of you gos.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great chemistry.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's very cute.
Speaker 5: She is so good, it's crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's so good.
Speaker 3: And then that they like ripped that poor character to
Speaker 3: sort of shreds because she's actually so good and the
Speaker 3: scenes are so good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I love April. I don't have any
Speaker 2: problem with April. Yeah, yeah, she's cool. So we go
Speaker 2: to Laureli's house, and this is when Rory shows up.
Speaker 2: She's got the fancy dress on because she's going to
Speaker 2: go to Logan's thing afterwards. And okay, so this was
Speaker 2: my first red flag. Loreley cooked the s cargo. You're right,
Speaker 2: let that sink in for a minute.
Speaker 8: I had the same thought the second I saw the apron.
Speaker 8: The second I saw her with an apron.
Speaker 4: But she doesn't know how to turn turn on her oven, right.
Speaker 2: She doesn't cook anything. And now you believe that she
Speaker 2: cooked the scargo.
Speaker 3: I thought they were gonna light thing. Ever.
Speaker 8: I thought they were going to like gag when they
Speaker 8: took a bite or something because it was so bad.
Speaker 8: But I was like, she's never cooked, she's.
Speaker 1: Never poured like cereal, if you can't put it in
Speaker 1: a toaster, forget it.
Speaker 3: Butter and garlic, I think, I don't know, maybe they're
Speaker 3: not that hard.
Speaker 6: But I just like, an apron really just threw me off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was that about?
Speaker 2: And even Rory said, she's like, what are you wearing?
Speaker 2: So super awkward. They sit down to have dinner now,
Speaker 2: I don't know, they're fussing around with the salad and
Speaker 2: the bread and they've got their hands all over the table,
Speaker 2: and yet somehow Rory does not notice that they're both
Speaker 2: wearing wedding rings.
Speaker 3: Thank you. I immediately noticed.
Speaker 1: You know, she was probably distracted by Christopher's sweater. That
Speaker 1: thing was bad. Did you check out that sweater?
Speaker 2: I don't remember.
Speaker 3: I missed it because I was so obsessed with the rings.
Speaker 3: And I was like, how are they not noticing.
Speaker 1: That the sweater was just like especially or something? It was?
Speaker 1: It was brutal.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the rings are noticeable.
Speaker 3: My friend got in the car the other day and
Speaker 3: I immediately noticed her ring, and she the second she
Speaker 3: gets in the car, she was like, oh, yeah, I got.
Speaker 5: Married, And I'm like, yeah, I noticed the ring. I
Speaker 5: don't know.
Speaker 1: You weren't there. Did you have a rary moment?
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm just like a ring starer?
Speaker 1: Don't were you were you? Were you offended that you
Speaker 1: were not there? Did you have a rary moment?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 3: No, no, not at all, No, not at all at
Speaker 3: my age? Thank you for not inviting me.
Speaker 2: Especially when he says all because she didn't want to
Speaker 2: try it. So Christopher says, I'll try the first one,
Speaker 2: and so they're literally all looking at him while he's
Speaker 2: digging it out of the shell, Like, how does she's
Speaker 2: literally looking at his hands? How is she not seeing?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 3: Journal the ring was blamant. I was like, wow, it
Speaker 3: was so old and shiny.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and plain sight. That's when people don't say things
Speaker 1: when it's just right.
Speaker 3: We're supposed to understand that Luke saw it immediately, right,
Speaker 3: So but we'll get to that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Rory's asking them what they did, and they're
Speaker 2: kind of looking at each other, and you could tell
Speaker 2: Laurlai doesn't want to say it. One funny line though,
Speaker 2: was when she Laura I said, she's been snacking on
Speaker 2: the snails all day long.
Speaker 1: Well, maybe Rory is a far sighted or near sighted?
Speaker 1: Which one won't it be?
Speaker 3: Great question?
Speaker 2: No, I done, and.
Speaker 1: Luke has better eyesight saw the ring that could be.
Speaker 2: So Lorlay finally rips the band aid off and says
Speaker 2: they got married, and Rory says, you got married married,
Speaker 2: and she's you could tell she wasn't super pleased, but
Speaker 2: she puts a smile on her face and she says congratulations.
Speaker 2: And then they hear the story about how they were
Speaker 2: at the place that had the lilies and it was
Speaker 2: raining and there was a chapel, and so they just
Speaker 2: decided to get married, and then Chris decided champagne. They
Speaker 2: want to have champagne, and so Laurla says, there's some
Speaker 2: in the garage. One thing I know is this is
Speaker 2: so nitpicky, but it just caught my attention. Lauurla I
Speaker 2: said that there was some champagne in the cooler, and
Speaker 2: I like, my grandparents called it a cooler, but I
Speaker 2: mean like.
Speaker 3: She meant the outdoor fridge or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I've never people are called it a refrigerator.
Speaker 3: I've never heard unless unless they have some sort of
Speaker 3: a cooler out there. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I think she met refrigerator. My
Speaker 2: grandparents used to say cooler to mean the refrigerator, so
Speaker 2: I just it sounded like an old word to me,
Speaker 2: So I just noticed it. But okay, so this is
Speaker 2: where I have question for everyone, and maybe you can
Speaker 2: help me. So Christopher leaves the room to go get champagne.
Speaker 2: And this is when so Laurlai turns. Torrian says, so
Speaker 2: what do you think? And that's when Rory says, I'm
Speaker 2: really mad, Like she's really pissed that this happened.
Speaker 4: But then she doesn't want her dad to know that.
Speaker 2: She doesn't want Christopher to know. She's like, oh, we
Speaker 2: can't do this right now because Dad's coming back. So
Speaker 2: the same guy to know what her opinion is.
Speaker 3: Thank you. I thought the same thing because this is
Speaker 3: the same guy that she was like stay away from mom,
Speaker 3: do you know what I mean? Like, she it's not
Speaker 3: like she's ever had an issue being direct with him.
Speaker 1: Right, I didn't have a problem with that.
Speaker 4: I thought, relationship with it's a.
Speaker 1: Totally different relationship. And they were they're super close. I
Speaker 1: mean they're yeah, but they're best friends.
Speaker 2: Right, But if my parents, Like if they were my
Speaker 2: parents and they did this, I would be heartbroken and
Speaker 2: I would be mad at both of them because they
Speaker 2: both did that.
Speaker 1: But he's he's not a parent. He doesn't, he doesn't,
Speaker 1: he doesn't stir up deep emotions in Rory. She doesn't.
Speaker 1: She hasn't invested in him. She's she's almost dismissed him
Speaker 1: as as an emotional soulmate or or or she's not
Speaker 1: bonded in that way with him, you know, I mean, yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean I kind of I can kind of see that,
Speaker 2: Like maybe she just like her bar is so low
Speaker 2: for him that she doesn't she doesn't put it past
Speaker 2: him to do something like that. But at the same time,
Speaker 2: I didn't really understand, like why she was trying to
Speaker 2: protect his feelings by pretending to be happy about it,
Speaker 2: but then taking out her anger on Lorelei.
Speaker 1: Because because she probably didn't want to get stamped out
Speaker 1: her fire, didn't want to get She didn't want her
Speaker 1: fire to get stamped out by Christopher, who would probably
Speaker 1: defend laurel I in that situation because it's easier. Because
Speaker 1: I really I think it's an issue she She doesn't
Speaker 1: have an issue with him, it's her I can't.
Speaker 3: You're right, Scott, That's that's what I was going to say.
Speaker 3: It's like, you're gonna take it out on your mom,
Speaker 3: not your random uncle.
Speaker 1: And if you're like, why are you acting like my
Speaker 1: father who I am very little emotionally invested in, and
Speaker 1: now you're like, now you're behaving like him and keeping
Speaker 1: not including me in things, you know, it's like when
Speaker 1: she's mad. Yeah, she's mad at her mom for that.
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know, because we saw when he left
Speaker 2: Lorelai to go back to Sherry when she was pregnant.
Speaker 2: Rory screamed at him like that when he showed up
Speaker 2: at at Emily's house, and like Rory totally gave him
Speaker 2: about it, so into like she's trying to save his
Speaker 2: feelings or she doesn't feel confident talking to him or something.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just did questioned it too. I agree with you.
Speaker 3: I agree with you both in fact, because I did
Speaker 3: question it. But then I also understand what Scott's saying.
Speaker 3: I'm somewhere in the middle.
Speaker 2: I get it. Yeah, I mean, I just didn't feel
Speaker 2: like it was fair that Laurela I had to take
Speaker 2: the brunt of Rory's anger because it was something that
Speaker 2: they both did together.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I think Laurela I knew better and she
Speaker 1: messed up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she had the hesitation and did it anyways.
Speaker 3: Knows she also knows she messed up. That's why she's so.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that that's kind of where I ultimately landed on.
Speaker 2: It was that she she expects more from like she
Speaker 2: expects Larelai to know better, but she doesn't necessarily expect
Speaker 2: Christopher to know better because he just is Yep, whatever
Speaker 2: he is. Okay, So now we just cut to the party.
Speaker 2: So Rory's at dinner with her parents, and now all
Speaker 2: of a sudden she's at the party in New York
Speaker 2: and she tells Logan that her parents got married and
Speaker 2: she's a little agitated about it, and he was nice,
Speaker 2: do you want to go somewhere and talk. She's like no, no.
Speaker 2: So they they see all of Logan's buddies, including Bobby,
Speaker 2: and then we meet Trip Cavanaugh and the little the
Speaker 2: kissing on the cheek scene, like kind of awkwardly like
Speaker 2: leaning towards each other. I thought that was funny. I
Speaker 2: thought that was cute.
Speaker 4: I hate that too, when somebody's like, I'm like, oh shit,
Speaker 4: do I do this? Once twice?
Speaker 3: I have to say I really did like Rory and
Speaker 3: Logan in this scene. I like that Rory told him
Speaker 3: right away. I like how he reacted.
Speaker 2: I liked that.
Speaker 3: Then she was like no, no, no, I'm good Like
Speaker 3: I didn't. I liked them. I even liked their interactions
Speaker 3: at the party.
Speaker 5: I was good with you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I like how Logan was like taking her around, like, oh,
Speaker 4: you meet this person I meet that you know? Like
Speaker 4: I it seemed like they were a very well season
Speaker 4: couple at this point.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought this was a pretty good scene. So
Speaker 2: Trip comes over. He's talking about his house that's under
Speaker 2: construction in Tortola and all the nightmares of construction on
Speaker 2: a small island. And then we meet Hugo Gray aka
Speaker 2: Sheldon's dad.
Speaker 3: Gray.
Speaker 2: Who the accent, like the lack of an accent, it was,
Speaker 2: I was. I'm so used to hearing him with that
Speaker 2: Texas accent on young Sheldon.
Speaker 3: I didn't even realize that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, who the New York Times writer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the online.
Speaker 1: Or the guy or the guy with the website, guy
Speaker 1: website that logan.
Speaker 2: Introduces her to his real life name, Lance Barbara. Oh,
Speaker 2: Lance Barber.
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right, that's right. Yes, he was in.
Speaker 2: Another episode of Gilmour too, in the Fashion Show episode
Speaker 2: way back and it was like season one or two.
Speaker 2: He was the guy that was trying to fix the
Speaker 2: run and Luke had to come fix his fixed anyway,
Speaker 2: So Hugo Gray is launching this website, talking to Rory about,
Speaker 2: you know, just kind of the stuff that she writes about,
Speaker 2: and he offers to have her submit some work for
Speaker 2: his site, gives her his business card, and then our
Speaker 2: Tortola friend shows up again and wants to tell us
Speaker 2: another story about his house, and then that's the end
Speaker 2: of that scene. And then I guess that was it
Speaker 2: for the party. I felt like there was another party scene,
Speaker 2: but I guess there wasn't.
Speaker 3: But once for some reason, I thought we went back
Speaker 3: and forth a bit too.
Speaker 2: I know, I thought we did too, but I don't
Speaker 2: think we did, because then the next scene is the
Speaker 2: next morning, Lurlai is leaving a mess. She's sitting on
Speaker 2: the porch. She's leaving a message for Rory, and Rory's
Speaker 2: not answering the phone. Laura's, you know, trying to just
Speaker 2: fi that. I know, this seems sudden and blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: Then we cut to Logan and Rory's apartment, which is
Speaker 2: happening at the same time as Laura is leading the message.
Speaker 2: Rory wrote the piece. I guess she was like up
Speaker 2: all night writing.
Speaker 4: That's what I didn't understand, Like she wrote a whole
Speaker 4: article like within hours.
Speaker 2: That's sounds like, yeah, she drank too much coffee and
Speaker 2: then wrote the article and that's why in the morning
Speaker 2: she was all like hyped up on the coffee and
Speaker 2: lack of sleep, and Logan's reading it, and then that's
Speaker 2: when she gets that message, and here's that it's Lorelai
Speaker 2: and puts the phone down and doesn't want to talk
Speaker 2: to her. So that's how we knew that was happening.
Speaker 2: At the same time, uh, Logan does not like the
Speaker 2: article she wrote and says that she was getting judgmental,
Speaker 2: and then they had an argument because he basically was saying,
Speaker 2: you know, you're one of us, you're one of this.
Speaker 4: Crowd too, and that he likes those people, right.
Speaker 2: And then he's not ashamed of being a trust fund
Speaker 2: kid and you know, and he's proud of it or whatever,
Speaker 2: and she didn't like that comparison. I think she's she
Speaker 2: thinks of herself still as like the small town girl,
Speaker 2: even though.
Speaker 4: She did everything on her own, even though she had
Speaker 4: grandma and grandpa right exactly.
Speaker 2: And so then Logan makes the comment about you know
Speaker 2: how she's basically living in his apartment rent free, and.
Speaker 6: Then she that was rough.
Speaker 4: It was something like he wasn't wrong, No, that's wrong,
Speaker 4: but like, oh he just shoved that in her.
Speaker 6: Face, have a knife and like twisted it.
Speaker 10: It was like yeah, yeah, I mean, as much as
Speaker 10: she wants to think that she's still the small town
Speaker 10: stars hollow girl, like once Emily and Richard got their
Speaker 10: claws into.
Speaker 2: Her, that was all over.
Speaker 5: I was surprised that it took.
Speaker 3: The Lucy and Olivia to sort of make her realize
Speaker 3: it was mean, and she didn't just sort of realize
Speaker 3: it then.
Speaker 8: But yeah, yeah, like in that moment talking to talking
Speaker 8: to Logan, she didn't realize that she needed an outside person.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 6: And I also wish she went to Paris about it,
Speaker 6: because Paris works at the paper.
Speaker 5: Do you get Paris?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Paris?
Speaker 5: What I mean, I just get Paris these days.
Speaker 3: Like she to Lucy and Olivia, like we don't even
Speaker 3: know them.
Speaker 6: Yet, Like Lucy, Olivia, Wayne or Lane.
Speaker 8: Yeah, like she could have gone to Lane or Paris
Speaker 8: and had this conversation like we got into this argument,
Speaker 8: what do you what do you think of this article?
Speaker 8: And I feel like I don't know, I feel like
Speaker 8: they would give a better answer, So what do we
Speaker 8: think of it?
Speaker 1: Was Logan's anger justifying was aggressive.
Speaker 4: I think the thing is that that night was such
Speaker 4: a big night for him, right, Like that was a
Speaker 4: big night for him, and she just rained on his
Speaker 4: parade by.
Speaker 2: She totally skewered all of them, And I think he
Speaker 2: was reacting to that, which I don't blame him for.
Speaker 4: Like, these are the people who are trying to do
Speaker 4: business with, you know, he he doesn't need his girlfriend
Speaker 4: writing an article that's gonna jeopardize that.
Speaker 3: Right, she should kind of know that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I think it'd be different if they went to like
Speaker 8: her grandparents party or the Huntsburgers party.
Speaker 6: But this is for Logan.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this is like a scene from Straysay
Speaker 1: and Redford in the way we.
Speaker 5: Were Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: What I mean. It's like Streisan was never one of them,
Speaker 1: and he was trying to make her one of them,
Speaker 1: and she wasn't. She didn't fit in.
Speaker 4: It's like some of our significant others writing an article
Speaker 4: being like podcasting is lame. They were like, yeah, that's
Speaker 4: how I.
Speaker 3: Make my living, thank you.
Speaker 6: I've had friends be like I don't listen to podcasts.
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, that is fine. If they were like
Speaker 4: every podcast of sucks, it's like.
Speaker 2: Right right, right, yeah, thanks, yeah, and yeah. So I
Speaker 2: think he felt kind of a tap and at the
Speaker 2: same time, it was made even worse by the fact
Speaker 2: that she's basically one of them. So it's not like
Speaker 2: it's the pot calling the kettle black.
Speaker 1: But I think his his he was shocked. It was
Speaker 1: it was a side of Rory he didn't know existed.
Speaker 1: He was just I think he felt betrayed. He felt hurt,
Speaker 1: you know, he it just he was so confused. The
Speaker 1: anger came.
Speaker 5: I understood.
Speaker 3: She's like, but we were making these same jokes. But
Speaker 3: there is a difference between jokes you make with your
Speaker 3: boyfriend and writing an article.
Speaker 1: Yes, everyone draw the line. I mean, come on, that was.
Speaker 3: Very cool, like telling a private moment between you and
Speaker 3: your significant other to like a group of your girlfriends.
Speaker 2: Everyone's like, oh, that's not okay.
Speaker 4: And so the thing that I had a question about,
Speaker 4: and sorry if I miss this, but like, did she
Speaker 4: submit it to that guy.
Speaker 3: One of that too?
Speaker 5: But I'm assuming I don't think they.
Speaker 4: Said yet, not yet okay, Because I thought this was
Speaker 4: a Lorlai Emily article repeat. I was like, Oh, this
Speaker 4: is going to land somewhere and then this is gonna
Speaker 4: be the demise of the Logan Rory relationship.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 8: I took it as like she wrote the draft and
Speaker 8: handed it to him first.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like a proofread.
Speaker 2: It reminded me of that episode where she wrote that
Speaker 2: article about the ballerina I know. Hell yeah, it was
Speaker 2: like super like she had ros hanging over her bra
Speaker 2: like just and she thought it was funny and didn't
Speaker 2: realize how nasty it was. Pointed it out to her.
Speaker 3: We're having some redundancy here in season seven. I'm not
Speaker 3: that mad about it, but yes, there's a lot of
Speaker 3: things sort of like this is a different take on
Speaker 3: the same thing we've seen before. Maybe intentional, maybe not
Speaker 3: when we get to the hospital.
Speaker 2: But yeah. So then the scene changes to Luke's apartment
Speaker 2: and April is wrapping the birthday gift getting ready for
Speaker 2: her party.
Speaker 3: Scenes with the use of sweetie way too many times
Speaker 3: sweetie sweet, sweety sweet, sweet, sweaty sweet.
Speaker 2: And otherwise they have the conversation about juggling.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I sweeties, by the way, thanks a lot.
Speaker 3: The juggling bit was good, and her just not wanting
Speaker 3: to be sick, not wanting to be saying no, I
Speaker 3: love that you call her right away.
Speaker 1: M hm.
Speaker 5: That was awesome. This is the you suck as a
Speaker 5: dad scene.
Speaker 1: Yeah, things escalated quickly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Luke was like, I don't suck as a dad.
Speaker 4: Go sulk.
Speaker 5: You know, it was like such.
Speaker 2: A stereotypical teenager line like it kind.
Speaker 4: Of yes, yeah for sure, Okay, and then we.
Speaker 2: Go to Laurelized house and she's checking her messages, still
Speaker 2: hoping to make contact with Rory. Christopher comes in with
Speaker 2: this laundry basket of clothes and this is the laundry basket,
Speaker 2: and you got the police shirt, and this.
Speaker 5: Is where she twenty years later, again.
Speaker 2: It's back to the whole high school thing. It's like
Speaker 2: the synchronicity shirt. And I don't know, we got we
Speaker 2: kind of beat that dead horse.
Speaker 1: But how about his line? Well I lied, yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3: So how many shirts do you guys have? So if
Speaker 3: they were five, how many shirts do you have from
Speaker 3: twenty years ago? I think I have one.
Speaker 6: I have all my concert merch.
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I probably have five. I have
Speaker 4: like my instinct T shirt extra boys, but I don't
Speaker 4: wear them like they're just hanging.
Speaker 1: I actually have a bunch.
Speaker 8: I have a bunch, yeah, but not like any other
Speaker 8: shirt besides concert shirts or like band shirts.
Speaker 4: So this police shirt actually makes sense?
Speaker 6: Yeah it does, I.
Speaker 3: Guess, so, all right, at tracks, Okay, it.
Speaker 2: Does, But at the same time, like that's it also
Speaker 2: points to how everything that they have is connected to
Speaker 2: high school for them.
Speaker 3: Well, yes, that's so this is a core issue here,
Speaker 3: that is it. But we won't right now because we'll
Speaker 3: have plenty of time for that.
Speaker 2: And then this is I think this is the scene
Speaker 2: where he's trying to move the yeah smow Brery's desk
Speaker 2: and he's like, we got to make a coloring table.
Speaker 3: For Jake colored the desk.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but and this is what your cowboy.
Speaker 2: Change me a great Christopher.
Speaker 1: You're with Laurela Gilmore. She could hit the ejector button
Speaker 1: on you at any time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wish she should have already.
Speaker 2: Right, he's just being really like bossy and assertive about
Speaker 2: we have to make all these changes, and and like
Speaker 2: I get that she he's frustrated that she's pushing back,
Speaker 2: but at the same time, it's only been like two
Speaker 2: days and they don't need to change everything right away.
Speaker 3: He's pushing too much, and she's not understanding right where
Speaker 3: he's coming from. I think her usual we have that issue.
Speaker 4: But she also doesn't want to do this, you know,
Speaker 4: like you can just tell do this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it goes.
Speaker 1: You know, it's good acting on her part because she's
Speaker 1: been doing this for the entire season, because you can
Speaker 1: feel the resistance. You can feel she's there, right, and
Speaker 1: that's that's Lauren doing her job. You know. It's like
Speaker 1: thinking the right thoughts and those thoughts are translating into
Speaker 1: that sort of a little bit of behavior that we
Speaker 1: recognize as resistance. And it's it's interesting, isn't it. It's
Speaker 1: very self.
Speaker 2: I mean, she was probably thinking, like the actress was
Speaker 2: probably thinking, why are we doing this?
Speaker 3: Did anybody see the comment, Tara, I know you did
Speaker 3: because we talked about it on our Instagram that there's
Speaker 3: an interview somewhere of Lauren where she does not remember
Speaker 3: getting married to Christopher.
Speaker 2: It's in her book. It's in her book. Yeah, she
Speaker 2: forgot so much. So I had to explain it to
Speaker 2: her when they were filmed.
Speaker 3: She literally like, huh.
Speaker 2: But it kind of for me. It goes back to
Speaker 2: when they had that movie date where they were watching
Speaker 2: the movie on the side of the barn and she
Speaker 2: told him She's like, I want to go slow. I
Speaker 2: don't want to rush through this, and he told her
Speaker 2: that they would go slow, and now all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: you know, he takes her to Paris and he isolates
Speaker 2: her from Rory, he isolates her from Suki, and maybe
Speaker 2: that wasn't intentional on maybe Christopher did the intentionally do that,
Speaker 2: but nobody was there to be the voice of common sense.
Speaker 2: And she told him in Paris she didn't want to
Speaker 2: get married, and yet they come home and they're married,
Speaker 2: and now he's trying to rearrange her entire house and
Speaker 2: move what's her name, He's furniture out what's her name,
Speaker 2: like just slowly on it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, it's interesting to uh analyze.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I also think like in that scene, he also said
Speaker 4: like he's going to take her lead, right, so she's
Speaker 4: definitely not, but she but she's not so not saying
Speaker 4: she's not doing she's doing it.
Speaker 8: You know, she's, yeah, she's going along with she's not
Speaker 8: taking lead, but she's not pushing back.
Speaker 2: Yeah she does.
Speaker 4: And then she's like, oh, well, let's just get married,
Speaker 4: you know like what?
Speaker 2: Yeah, like why this is why I don't understand why
Speaker 2: everybody is just trying to spare his feelings and make
Speaker 2: him happy because he doesn't deserve that. But this is
Speaker 2: also the scene where Laura tells Christopher that Rory is
Speaker 2: not happy about the whole thing, which I was glad too.
Speaker 3: You know, I just can't with the like not telling
Speaker 3: each other. It's just, yeah, that drives me nuts.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So then Christopher starts to pout because he's like,
Speaker 2: I'm her father, We're married. Now, why didn't you tell.
Speaker 1: Me that one line? That's the one line in the
Speaker 1: whole yeah episode that just rang so hollow for me.
Speaker 1: I'm her father, trying to sound authoritative and it's just like, dude,
Speaker 1: come on.
Speaker 2: Right, And so then he gets the powdery look on
Speaker 2: his face, and this is where Laura's trying to make
Speaker 2: him feel better now, saying, oh, she just needs time
Speaker 2: to adjust what interrupt?
Speaker 3: But am I the only one that just hears Darth Vader?
Speaker 2: So then the next scene is actually at Olivia and
Speaker 2: Lucy's apartment.
Speaker 5: Kind of.
Speaker 2: It was a sort of a throwaway scene, just basically
Speaker 2: serving the point to me make the point that the
Speaker 2: article is uh.
Speaker 3: A weird mention And for boyfriend.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought I thought he was. We were going
Speaker 6: to see him.
Speaker 3: It's because we're leading to something, but it's so annoyed.
Speaker 2: It did make me laugh when she said, oh, boyfriend
Speaker 2: made those bookshelves over there, and they're fine for paperbacks.
Speaker 2: I thought that was funny. And then we go back
Speaker 2: to Luke's apartment and now April looks really sick. She's
Speaker 2: laying on the bed. She's still insisting she feels fine.
Speaker 2: And then this is where Luke calls Laurelai and she's
Speaker 2: the one who gives him the motherly advice and says
Speaker 2: it's probably appendicitis. Now, what do you think everything?
Speaker 3: I liked everything about it.
Speaker 2: What do you think about the fact that he chose
Speaker 2: to call Laurelai instead of Anna, like.
Speaker 4: Even hesitate.
Speaker 3: No, because he's calling who he trusts the most, he
Speaker 3: would go to.
Speaker 2: I always think I agree. I loved that he called Laura.
Speaker 2: I I just thought it was interesting, like if it
Speaker 2: was my kid, I would want somebody to tell me that.
Speaker 1: Or Sheryl and Fenn was working on another project.
Speaker 3: Was also we're dying to get these two back together,
Speaker 3: and so finally the team at Gilmour Girls is starting
Speaker 3: to give us what.
Speaker 5: We are desperately needed.
Speaker 3: Yes, And once we had it, I realized, Ah, there's
Speaker 3: a reason I like this exactly.
Speaker 6: I also took it as.
Speaker 8: Like Luke didn't know that it was going to be
Speaker 8: that serious, and so he didn't want to call Anna
Speaker 8: and think he didn't know how to take care of
Speaker 8: a kid, and she has a call like That's how
Speaker 8: I took it, And that's why he called it, because
Speaker 8: like he probably thought, he's gonna call Laurai.
Speaker 6: She's gonna be like, all right, grab some medication, you know,
Speaker 6: give her some.
Speaker 1: His privilege to host his.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't think he expected going to the hospital,
Speaker 8: and that's why he called That's very good point, very
Speaker 8: good point.
Speaker 2: So then we're in the waiting room at the hospital
Speaker 2: and Laurel I shows up. It was so nice to
Speaker 2: see them together again, even though you know, obviously it's
Speaker 2: a scary situation because there's a sick kid.
Speaker 1: But I heard I don't know about you guys until.
Speaker 4: Mister and missus Nardini.
Speaker 5: That was awesome.
Speaker 3: Also, I love about it.
Speaker 2: I love how Luke was all flustered and he was like,
Speaker 2: I told them she could have my appendix if if
Speaker 2: they needed.
Speaker 1: Cute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It was good until he saw the
Speaker 2: ring and then he gave her the look like what
Speaker 2: the heck is that? And then she was awkward and
Speaker 2: embarrassed and then trying to hide her hands, and then.
Speaker 6: He felt that awkwardness.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was very well done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Lauren, and I tell you.
Speaker 3: It's so good that it's not talked about.
Speaker 1: I just I just loved working with her.
Speaker 9: Man.
Speaker 1: She was great. She was such a great scene partner.
Speaker 1: It was so much.
Speaker 3: You don't even say anything, and we all feel it,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 1: It's it's there are a lot of actors that you
Speaker 1: work with that don't care if they're great. They just
Speaker 1: want to do the scene well, but they're not going
Speaker 1: for great. She always went for great well. She always
Speaker 1: wanted it to be better. She always you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. It's just a joy. It's just a freaking joy.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you.
Speaker 4: I love that.
Speaker 2: So we go from that nice moment to more awkwardness
Speaker 2: with Rory and Logan back at the apartment. Logan apologizes
Speaker 2: for what he's the comment that he made, which I
Speaker 2: don't think he needed to apologize, but I do get that,
Speaker 2: like when you're in a fight with someone. He was
Speaker 2: a bit harsh. But yeah, and then she apologizes because
Speaker 2: she now realized that the article was mean and judgmental,
Speaker 2: so they make up, and then this is where she
Speaker 2: tells him that she's gonna move out of the apartment
Speaker 2: because I think she's feeling like she needs to be
Speaker 2: not riding his coattails or living off of his money,
Speaker 2: like she needs to do her own thing and go
Speaker 2: find her own apartment somewhere. And then that's when Laurlai
Speaker 2: comes in because she's just given up trying to call her,
Speaker 2: so she just shows up at the apartment.
Speaker 11: And that was a little odd, no, no with their relationship,
Speaker 11: I thought normal.
Speaker 3: And I liked how I loved her sort of a
Speaker 3: quick moment with Logan and he touches her arm.
Speaker 5: I thought that was so well done.
Speaker 2: I really liked that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they are, Like I love the relationship between Logan
Speaker 4: and Lurlai because there's so many parallels between them, and
Speaker 4: there's just some unspoken bond that they haven't, Like they're
Speaker 4: not like, oh I love your mom or anything like that.
Speaker 4: Like there's just like an unspoken bond between the two
Speaker 4: of them that I think is cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so this is where we find out that
Speaker 2: Rory's not upset that they got married. She's upset that
Speaker 2: she wasn't there completely understandable, and then Laurel I basically
Speaker 2: admits that they didn't call Rory because she didn't want
Speaker 2: Rory to talk her out of it. So Rory admits
Speaker 2: she would have right exactly, and she says, I just
Speaker 2: wanted to do what I really wanted, to be married
Speaker 2: to your dad.
Speaker 7: Ye.
Speaker 3: What keeps going through my mind is that Luke isn't
Speaker 3: her first marriage. And what I don't know is if
Speaker 3: I'm good with that or if that's a bummer. Like,
Speaker 3: that's what keeps going through my mind, and we know
Speaker 3: she isn't his, so that's why I'm like, oh, maybe
Speaker 3: that's what it took. But for some reason, that just
Speaker 3: repeats in my mind constantly.
Speaker 9: M M.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean I feel like she had to get it
Speaker 2: out of her system. She had to make a go
Speaker 2: of it with Christopher, just to silence all those voices.
Speaker 1: Internal pressure, external pressure to get married if you've never
Speaker 1: been married. Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 2: But we do find out that she did not change
Speaker 2: her name, so we're seeing, you know, lots of indications
Speaker 2: that she knows this was not a good idea.
Speaker 3: I knew everything I needed to know. At the end
Speaker 3: of the last episode with the face nobody has that
Speaker 3: face right, exactly exactly face.
Speaker 2: But then we go back to Lorelei's house and now
Speaker 2: she's happily moving the desk talking about painting the room pink.
Speaker 2: She tells Christopher that Luke and April are good and
Speaker 2: Rory's good, and everybody did.
Speaker 3: Like, I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I did like that.
Speaker 3: Christopher knew she was going to the hospital. Yeah, again,
Speaker 3: that would him, so like, you've learned nothing, woman, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Happy about that? Yeah? I like that she told him
Speaker 2: before she went and she still went like he didn't
Speaker 2: talk her out, and he's chill about it.
Speaker 3: It's all all good.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then the final scene was the where Lucas
Speaker 2: sitting next to April in the hospital bed and he's
Speaker 2: like checking her temperature, and then he is flipping through
Speaker 2: the channels on the TV and that's when we see
Speaker 2: an old black and white movie and they talk about
Speaker 2: eloping to Maryland, and so he gets a look on
Speaker 2: his face because he is remembering when he and Laura
Speaker 2: I had talked about that at the end of season six.
Speaker 3: For me as a fan, I feel like because it
Speaker 3: look Danielle can cover her ears, although she look we
Speaker 3: know where we're going, Mack.
Speaker 5: To come on.
Speaker 3: So it's like, as a fan, I sort of had
Speaker 3: a sigh of relief, like, oh, okay, now we're heading
Speaker 3: in the right direction. It may take some time, but
Speaker 3: we're heading there right right.
Speaker 2: This this is like I feel like, I don't mind
Speaker 2: seeing laurel Ize so uneasy because that tells me, Okay,
Speaker 2: she doesn't really want to be with Christopher, so maybe
Speaker 2: this isn't going to be a forever situation. Like I
Speaker 2: feel like, okay, if she was like I'm blissfully happily
Speaker 2: in love with Christopher, then I would be like, you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know how much more of this I'm going
Speaker 2: to watch, but at least like like you, like you say,
Speaker 2: we feel like this is going, you know, somewhere. And
Speaker 2: then that was the end of the episode.
Speaker 1: Well the end there you go.
Speaker 3: How do you feel, Scott.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's definitely beginning to head in the
Speaker 1: right direction. Yeah, but listen, I also get that it's
Speaker 1: still Gilmore girls, even if these are not the most
Speaker 1: familiar pairings of characters, Right, you got people caring about
Speaker 1: each other. You still got people imperfect, people trying to
Speaker 1: do better, you know, and going through their day and
Speaker 1: going through their lives, and they're all trying to be
Speaker 1: good people. They're trying to be that what's the term,
Speaker 1: everybody's the best versions of themselves like and there's something
Speaker 1: powerful about that, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's connection between these.
Speaker 1: There is there's they're trying to connect and they're not connecting,
Speaker 1: and it's sometimes it's frustrating to watch if they're not
Speaker 1: connecting and if it's not the right chemistry. But at
Speaker 1: least people are trying, and it's the better Nate sure
Speaker 1: of people is coming out and all of these episodes.
Speaker 3: Did we never see the diner the whole episode?
Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 4: But we got this burger scenes at the partment.
Speaker 6: Amy before you forget what is your note?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so for anybody, we have to do ratings
Speaker 3: to of course, so before.
Speaker 5: We do the ratings.
Speaker 3: We might have done this in the last episode, but
Speaker 3: I did learn it, Scott, you might have already done it.
Speaker 5: Did we do.
Speaker 2: Breathe in?
Speaker 8: H did we do?
Speaker 3: That's how you calm your body? You know, that was
Speaker 3: a real hit in the last episode, the box breathing,
Speaker 3: So you breathe in and then in your lowest possible.
Speaker 1: Low it's not as that. It's it's a it's a
Speaker 1: that's that's an acting thing.
Speaker 3: That's someone said, it's a yoga thing too, it.
Speaker 1: Is, So it's a what an actor borrowed from yoga. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they said. Nicholson used to get on his back and
Speaker 1: put his bottoms of his feet on the floor so
Speaker 1: his knees were up, and he would do these deep
Speaker 1: breathing things and he'd expel all the he'd just do that,
Speaker 1: you know, and do that until he's like, hi, right,
Speaker 1: just clear out, empty out, get centered and then go
Speaker 1: do a scene. So he was nice and relaxed.
Speaker 4: Amy and I did a call with somebody and they
Speaker 4: told us that their kid, uh, when he gets anxious,
Speaker 4: goes on the concrete, just face down. And they were like,
Speaker 4: that sounds good, sounds nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's great stuff.
Speaker 3: Are we here for Gilmore girls, but we are here
Speaker 3: to help you regulate your nervous system.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's really great. Four eight seven technique. You're breathing
Speaker 1: for four seconds through the nose. You hold it for
Speaker 1: eight seconds and then you breathe out of your mouth
Speaker 1: with the tip of your tongue on the top of
Speaker 1: the backside of your top row teeth and blow out
Speaker 1: for seven seconds, and it triggers your brain into knowing
Speaker 1: that you're trying to go to sleep, and you'll go
Speaker 1: to sleep faster.
Speaker 3: I have really good one before we give the rating.
Speaker 1: Okay, there's always and there's always the old reliable. Sit
