1
00:00:00,978 --> 00:00:02,374
- How are the eggs?
- Good.
2
00:00:02,518 --> 00:00:03,744
I'm glad.
3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,237
- They're still good.
- I'm still glad.
4
00:00:08,344 --> 00:00:10,499
- Look, freak, we'll not be late.
- It's the first day.
5
00:00:10,632 --> 00:00:12,903
- I want to get there early.
- We will. I promise.
6
00:00:13,088 --> 00:00:15,801
I have different classes this
year. My routes aren't the same.
7
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,065
I haven't found the quickest path
around. And they moved my locker.
8
00:00:19,288 --> 00:00:21,842
If it doesn't work properly
I'll have to get a new one.
9
00:00:22,034 --> 00:00:24,305
God knows how long
that'll take and where it'll be.
10
00:00:24,490 --> 00:00:26,795
That could send the
whole day into chaos.
11
00:00:26,986 --> 00:00:28,417
I'm just excited.
12
00:00:28,567 --> 00:00:30,951
- Thank God, you haven't left yet.
- No, what's up?
13
00:00:31,148 --> 00:00:33,100
I found the greatest
record store in the world.
14
00:00:33,270 --> 00:00:35,699
It's 10 minutes from your school.
How much do you love me?
15
00:00:35,892 --> 00:00:36,924
Address?
16
00:00:37,057 --> 00:00:40,837
Record Breaker Incorporated,
2453 Berlin Turnpike.
17
00:00:41,468 --> 00:00:45,010
- Got it. Place your order now.
- Yes. Okay.
18
00:00:45,338 --> 00:00:48,211
Charles Mingus, The Black
Saint And The Sinner Lady.
19
00:00:48,667 --> 00:00:50,892
- The Sonics, Here Are the Sonics.
- Burn me a copy.
20
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,588
- Next.
- MC5, Kick Out The Jams.
21
00:00:53,785 --> 00:00:56,090
Fairport Convention, Liege
& Lief. Bee Gees, Odessa.
22
00:00:56,282 --> 00:00:57,280
Really?
23
00:00:57,406 --> 00:00:59,472
- Mojo says.
- So it must be true.
24
00:00:59,653 --> 00:01:00,650
That's it.
25
00:01:00,776 --> 00:01:04,000
If I could find a copy of Whistler,
Chaucer, Detroit and Greenhill...
26
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:06,058
I will finally be
done with the '60s.
27
00:01:06,227 --> 00:01:08,180
I can get there today.
Tomorrow at the latest.
28
00:01:08,350 --> 00:01:10,699
- I love it when you go back to school.
- Me, too.
29
00:01:10,889 --> 00:01:14,431
I am getting doughnuts for later. As
soon as I do, I'll take you to school...
30
00:01:14,675 --> 00:01:16,548
and nice men in white
coats will pick you up.
31
00:01:16,755 --> 00:01:17,753
Everybody, listen up:
32
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,228
Decide what you want, place your
order, proceed to the end of the line.
33
00:01:21,458 --> 00:01:23,134
- I want a burger.
- I want grilled cheese.
34
00:01:23,290 --> 00:01:25,481
And I want fries. And
make them really crispy.
35
00:01:25,661 --> 00:01:28,454
- I want mine crispy, too.
- You didn't order fries.
36
00:01:28,657 --> 00:01:31,291
You can't order crispy fries
without first ordering fries.
37
00:01:31,487 --> 00:01:32,519
Why not?
38
00:01:32,652 --> 00:01:34,648
You can't make something
crispy that doesn't exist.
39
00:01:35,149 --> 00:01:36,819
- Why not?
- Get him away from me.
40
00:01:36,980 --> 00:01:37,978
Have some respect.
41
00:01:38,104 --> 00:01:42,531
These boys just completed the first
leg of their outdoor-survival training.
42
00:01:42,806 --> 00:01:45,837
Meaning you had them sit under
a tree and glue rocks together.
43
00:01:46,052 --> 00:01:48,686
You're a very jaded man. What
happened to you as a child?
44
00:01:48,881 --> 00:01:51,946
A creepy guy in shorts and knee
socks tried to sit me under a tree...
45
00:01:52,169 --> 00:01:53,440
and glue rocks together.
46
00:01:53,583 --> 00:01:54,696
- Put that down.
- Why?
47
00:01:54,833 --> 00:01:57,024
- Otherwise you're going under it.
- I won't fit.
48
00:01:57,204 --> 00:01:58,838
- Yes, you will.
- Doughnuts, please.
49
00:01:58,993 --> 00:02:01,343
- We were here first!
- On the planet?
50
00:02:01,948 --> 00:02:04,253
You lose. Chocolate
cinnamon and sprinkles.
51
00:02:04,445 --> 00:02:05,442
[Phone ringing]
52
00:02:05,568 --> 00:02:06,601
[All exclaiming]
53
00:02:06,733 --> 00:02:07,731
Pipe down!
54
00:02:07,857 --> 00:02:08,855
Grumps, huh?
55
00:02:08,980 --> 00:02:11,410
Yeah, I'm working. What
do you think I'm doing?
56
00:02:12,850 --> 00:02:14,837
Man. What did you do?
57
00:02:15,514 --> 00:02:17,581
Excuse me? Are you serious?
58
00:02:18,469 --> 00:02:21,261
Mr. Doose, she's not
supposed to do that.
59
00:02:21,798 --> 00:02:23,864
That's right. She's
breaking the rules...
60
00:02:24,045 --> 00:02:25,952
and people who
break the rules...
61
00:02:26,125 --> 00:02:30,348
end up very lonely with no friends
because they become society's outcasts.
62
00:02:30,620 --> 00:02:32,891
Planning on burning a
little Huck Finn after lunch?
63
00:02:33,075 --> 00:02:35,108
- Excuse me?
- This is unbelievable!
64
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,505
You will never change, will you?
65
00:02:38,652 --> 00:02:40,002
Okay, fine.
66
00:02:40,274 --> 00:02:41,943
Do what you want,
make the arrangements.
67
00:02:42,105 --> 00:02:44,817
Now, I'm working.
We'll finish this later.
68
00:02:46,141 --> 00:02:48,730
- Is everything okay?
- Do you have a sister?
69
00:02:48,930 --> 00:02:50,156
- No.
- I do.
70
00:02:50,303 --> 00:02:53,334
- You have my sympathies.
- Thanks. I appreciate that.
71
00:03:56,593 --> 00:03:57,739
- Hey.
- Hello.
72
00:03:57,883 --> 00:04:00,789
- What are you doing?
- Just redecorating the sidewalk.
73
00:04:01,004 --> 00:04:03,353
- Looks nice.
- You don't think too much blue?
74
00:04:03,543 --> 00:04:06,766
- No, just enough.
- Thanks for the input. You can go now.
75
00:04:06,996 --> 00:04:08,551
- Need some help?
- Nope.
76
00:04:08,702 --> 00:04:09,973
- Need some help?
- Nope.
77
00:04:12,406 --> 00:04:13,633
Do you need some help?
78
00:04:15,485 --> 00:04:17,994
Since when do you
buy Frosted Flakes?
79
00:04:20,105 --> 00:04:22,739
- Okay, now, what is going on?
- Nothing.
80
00:04:22,934 --> 00:04:25,489
Nothing? You just
woke up this morning...
81
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,825
and decided to buy every
food item in the world...
82
00:04:28,011 --> 00:04:30,156
- that you don't actually eat?
- It's not for me.
83
00:04:30,342 --> 00:04:32,850
- Who is it for?
- Someone who's not me.
84
00:04:34,544 --> 00:04:36,338
- Like who?
- Like my nephew.
85
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:39,770
- Your nephew's coming to visit.
- No, he's coming to stay.
86
00:04:39,996 --> 00:04:42,220
- Your sister's moving here?
- No.
87
00:04:42,451 --> 00:04:46,356
- I'm sorry, I don't get it.
- There's nothing to get. She's just Liz.
88
00:04:46,612 --> 00:04:49,359
She's busy, she can't handle
him, she's sending him here.
89
00:04:49,567 --> 00:04:50,918
Where's his dad?
90
00:04:51,065 --> 00:04:54,493
The great prize that my sister
picked up at a Der Wienerschnitzel...
91
00:04:54,727 --> 00:04:57,361
left her about two years
ago, whereabouts unknown.
92
00:04:59,845 --> 00:05:02,036
So she's sending
him here, just like that?
93
00:05:02,217 --> 00:05:05,600
No, I'm sure she put at least five
or six minutes of thought into it.
94
00:05:05,838 --> 00:05:07,233
But why?
95
00:05:07,586 --> 00:05:09,334
He's been getting
into some trouble...
96
00:05:09,499 --> 00:05:11,770
and Liz is afraid he's
heading for something bad...
97
00:05:11,955 --> 00:05:14,940
and rather than handle
it herself, she's given up.
98
00:05:15,159 --> 00:05:18,270
She's sending him here
so I can straighten him out.
99
00:05:18,488 --> 00:05:19,883
- You?
- Yes.
100
00:05:20,028 --> 00:05:21,776
- You can straighten him out?
- Yes.
101
00:05:21,942 --> 00:05:25,007
Luke, the great communicator,
you're going to straighten the kid out?
102
00:05:25,229 --> 00:05:28,056
All he needs is a change
of pace, a new crowd...
103
00:05:28,267 --> 00:05:30,855
and to get away
from the nut job...
104
00:05:31,055 --> 00:05:33,961
that unfortunately is my sister.
105
00:05:34,176 --> 00:05:37,207
- How long is he staying?
- I don't know. Indefinitely.
106
00:05:37,422 --> 00:05:39,329
- How old is he?
- Seventeen.
107
00:05:41,042 --> 00:05:43,233
That is very generous of you.
108
00:05:43,415 --> 00:05:45,606
- It's family. What else can you do?
- Right.
109
00:05:45,786 --> 00:05:48,897
- What kind of trouble has he gotten into?
- Just kid stuff.
110
00:05:49,116 --> 00:05:52,544
You know, staying
out late, getting rowdy.
111
00:05:53,901 --> 00:05:57,124
- I don't know exactly.
- You might want to find out.
112
00:05:57,355 --> 00:06:00,545
Ask a couple of subtle questions. Has
he seen The Shawshank Redemption?
113
00:06:00,767 --> 00:06:02,992
Did the setting seem
homey to him? Stuff like that.
114
00:06:03,181 --> 00:06:05,769
His problem is
obvious. It's his mother.
115
00:06:05,969 --> 00:06:08,478
We never could count
on Liz for anything.
116
00:06:08,674 --> 00:06:12,784
Our mom died when we were kids,
right? It was just my dad, me, and Liz.
117
00:06:13,459 --> 00:06:16,887
My dad worked all the time and I
worked in the store with my dad...
118
00:06:17,122 --> 00:06:19,756
and Liz was off doing
God knows what.
119
00:06:19,951 --> 00:06:22,063
I bet losing her mom
so early was hard on her.
120
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,351
It was hard on all of
us but we did our part.
121
00:06:24,529 --> 00:06:27,514
And the minute she graduates
high school, she is out of here.
122
00:06:27,733 --> 00:06:31,319
Didn't matter that my dad was sick.
Didn't matter that the store was failing.
123
00:06:31,561 --> 00:06:34,989
She just took off. Married the
hot dog king, had a kid, he left.
124
00:06:35,223 --> 00:06:36,291
Now here we are.
125
00:06:36,430 --> 00:06:40,051
- Yeah. I'm sorry, what are you doing?
- I'm blowing this up.
126
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:41,571
- What is it?
- It's a bed.
127
00:06:41,715 --> 00:06:42,907
- A bed?
- For Jess.
128
00:06:43,047 --> 00:06:44,273
- Jess?
- My nephew.
129
00:06:44,419 --> 00:06:46,213
That's not a bed, that's a raft.
130
00:06:46,375 --> 00:06:48,566
It's fine if you'll build a
moat around the diner...
131
00:06:48,748 --> 00:06:50,575
- It's fine.
- The kid needs a bed.
132
00:06:50,745 --> 00:06:53,333
If you want to get him something
inflatable, make it a blonde.
133
00:06:53,533 --> 00:06:55,724
I'm getting him a bed.
This is just temporary.
134
00:06:55,905 --> 00:06:58,857
- How does Jess feel about this?
- I don't know.
135
00:06:59,068 --> 00:07:01,100
- You haven't talked to him about it?
- No.
136
00:07:01,273 --> 00:07:03,941
- Don't you think you should?
- Why? He doesn't have a choice.
137
00:07:04,144 --> 00:07:06,653
His mom's a flake, he's
coming here. End of story.
138
00:07:06,849 --> 00:07:08,994
- Are you sure you're ready for this?
- Of course.
139
00:07:09,180 --> 00:07:11,848
Taking on a full-time
kid, that's a lot of work.
140
00:07:12,051 --> 00:07:13,084
I know.
141
00:07:13,216 --> 00:07:16,167
A 17-year-old who's been in
trouble and is being shipped off...
142
00:07:16,379 --> 00:07:18,172
without his consent,
that could be harder.
143
00:07:18,335 --> 00:07:21,683
All he needs is to be around someone
who's not a selfish basket case...
144
00:07:21,913 --> 00:07:24,785
who will give him a little space,
who will treat him like a man.
145
00:07:24,993 --> 00:07:27,706
- You should think about this.
- There's nothing to think about.
146
00:07:27,905 --> 00:07:29,336
You take care of family. Period.
147
00:07:29,487 --> 00:07:31,712
I respect that. But what if
he turns out to be Fredo?
148
00:07:31,900 --> 00:07:35,328
- Are you telling me not to do this?
- No, I'm not.
149
00:07:35,563 --> 00:07:36,630
Then what are you saying?
150
00:07:36,769 --> 00:07:40,197
I'm just saying that if you
need any help, I'm here.
151
00:07:40,764 --> 00:07:42,115
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
152
00:07:42,262 --> 00:07:44,295
I got a lot of things to
do before he gets here.
153
00:07:44,467 --> 00:07:46,102
Okay, I'm leaving.
154
00:07:49,336 --> 00:07:52,107
You do have an extra
set of sheets, right?
155
00:07:52,119 --> 00:07:52,878
Yes, I do.
156
00:07:53,124 --> 00:07:55,110
Sorry. Just checking. Bye.
157
00:08:00,655 --> 00:08:02,211
Sheets.
158
00:08:14,429 --> 00:08:15,984
Okay, round two.
159
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:18,993
- Five seconds?
- Four.
160
00:08:19,131 --> 00:08:20,199
- Fine.
- Now it's three.
161
00:08:20,339 --> 00:08:22,688
- Paris, it does not have to be like this.
- No?
162
00:08:22,877 --> 00:08:26,146
You and I are going to spend a
lot of time together on the Franklin.
163
00:08:26,373 --> 00:08:27,405
I know.
164
00:08:27,538 --> 00:08:30,523
We're going to sit in the same
classroom, share the same oxygen.
165
00:08:30,742 --> 00:08:33,455
- Occasionally make eye contact.
- I can avoid that.
166
00:08:33,655 --> 00:08:36,243
I'm not saying that we should
be friends. I don't want that.
167
00:08:36,443 --> 00:08:39,554
I'm just saying that we
should look at this like life.
168
00:08:39,772 --> 00:08:41,645
- Life?
- Yes, in life...
169
00:08:41,894 --> 00:08:44,801
there will be people you don't
like but you have to coexist with.
170
00:08:45,015 --> 00:08:48,443
- I'm well aware of that.
- So I'm just suggesting that we coexist.
171
00:08:48,677 --> 00:08:51,549
You're scared I'll make your
life on the Franklin a living hell.
172
00:08:51,757 --> 00:08:53,585
Especially since I'm
the editor and you're...
173
00:08:53,921 --> 00:08:55,873
What's the word? Not.
174
00:08:56,043 --> 00:08:59,665
If you want to spend the precious
energy that you would spend on the paper...
175
00:08:59,913 --> 00:09:02,421
obsessing on making me
miserable, then that's your choice.
176
00:09:02,618 --> 00:09:04,729
I'm just suggesting
an alternate plan.
177
00:09:04,990 --> 00:09:07,229
The paper could be
really great this year.
178
00:09:07,241 --> 00:09:07,702
I know.
179
00:09:07,903 --> 00:09:10,775
So can't we agree on that
and make the rest of it go away?
180
00:09:10,982 --> 00:09:12,299
Everything okay?
181
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,387
- Yeah, everything's fine.
- We were just talking.
182
00:09:15,684 --> 00:09:17,989
- Talking? You two?
- About the Franklin.
183
00:09:19,554 --> 00:09:20,950
Nope, still seems weird.
184
00:09:22,093 --> 00:09:23,602
We're all on the paper together.
185
00:09:23,758 --> 00:09:26,584
There's going to be a lot of
long afternoons and weekends.
186
00:09:26,795 --> 00:09:29,667
- We need to coexist. Right?
- Right.
187
00:09:29,875 --> 00:09:31,907
I'm sorry, back up
to the weekends.
188
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,542
So that's what we'll do. The first
meeting of the Franklin is today.
189
00:09:35,783 --> 00:09:37,054
- Yes, it is.
- 4:00.
190
00:09:37,198 --> 00:09:38,311
Sounds good.
191
00:09:40,278 --> 00:09:42,583
Weekends were never
mentioned. I need my weekends.
192
00:09:42,774 --> 00:09:45,283
All of this gets
done on weekends.
193
00:10:07,451 --> 00:10:09,085
- Jess.
- Luke.
194
00:10:14,235 --> 00:10:15,630
Okay, so...
195
00:10:30,130 --> 00:10:31,401
This is my diner.
196
00:10:32,877 --> 00:10:34,387
It belonged to your grandpa.
197
00:10:45,778 --> 00:10:47,128
Here we are.
198
00:10:48,815 --> 00:10:51,323
It's pretty simple.
This is the room.
199
00:10:52,353 --> 00:10:56,496
That's my bed. That's your bed
for now, but the sheets are new.
200
00:10:56,763 --> 00:10:59,953
There's the bathroom, there's
the closet, there's the dresser...
201
00:11:00,176 --> 00:11:02,844
the phone, and over
there is the kitchen.
202
00:11:03,713 --> 00:11:05,347
I've got Frosted Flakes.
203
00:11:05,627 --> 00:11:07,693
Wow, that's great.
204
00:11:08,915 --> 00:11:11,026
- Is that all your stuff?
- Yup.
205
00:11:13,242 --> 00:11:16,353
- Not much there.
- Lizzie's sending the rest later.
206
00:11:16,821 --> 00:11:18,727
- You need some help?
- Nope.
207
00:11:20,358 --> 00:11:22,628
I have to get back to the diner.
208
00:11:23,271 --> 00:11:25,934
I'm going to close at
10:00, so I thought...
209
00:11:25,946 --> 00:11:27,051
See you at 10:00.
210
00:11:27,432 --> 00:11:29,941
- But wait. You need keys.
- No, I don't.
211
00:11:33,216 --> 00:11:34,964
I so don't want to know why.
212
00:12:26,982 --> 00:12:30,648
PARIS: The op-ed page is sad. It's
worse than sad. It's un-opinionated.
213
00:12:30,893 --> 00:12:32,607
Pick a side, people.
214
00:12:33,973 --> 00:12:35,290
- Rory.
- Hey.
215
00:12:35,428 --> 00:12:38,335
- Nice of you to join us.
- I thought we were starting at 4:00.
216
00:12:38,549 --> 00:12:40,183
No, we start at 3:15 sharp.
217
00:12:40,339 --> 00:12:42,644
- We're wasting time here.
- Take a seat.
218
00:12:42,835 --> 00:12:43,833
Sorry.
219
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,547
Okay, so we were just finishing up
handing out the first assignments.
220
00:12:47,996 --> 00:12:50,220
Rory, unfortunately,
since you got here so late...
221
00:12:50,409 --> 00:12:52,203
everything of interest
has been given out.
222
00:12:52,366 --> 00:12:56,146
- Why, I'm shocked.
- Wait, just let me check my list here.
223
00:12:56,401 --> 00:12:58,706
There might be
something left for you.
224
00:12:59,357 --> 00:13:01,502
They're paving the new
parking lot tomorrow.
225
00:13:01,686 --> 00:13:03,276
- And?
- You can cover it.
226
00:13:03,434 --> 00:13:05,228
- Cover what?
- The paving process.
227
00:13:05,390 --> 00:13:07,059
- You're serious?
- Absolutely.
228
00:13:07,222 --> 00:13:08,970
I'm sure there's an
angle somewhere.
229
00:13:09,135 --> 00:13:12,597
Is it environmentally safe? What
are the financial ramifications?
230
00:13:12,839 --> 00:13:16,222
Should brick have been considered,
taking into account the architecture?
231
00:13:16,460 --> 00:13:17,686
Yeah, I get the idea.
232
00:13:17,832 --> 00:13:21,738
If you think this is below you,
you can wait until the next issue.
233
00:13:22,119 --> 00:13:24,230
You can use this time
to get a nice manicure.
234
00:13:24,407 --> 00:13:25,844
- That's okay.
- Maybe get a massage.
235
00:13:25,989 --> 00:13:28,577
- I'll do it.
- Aromatherapy. Smell like a peach.
236
00:13:28,776 --> 00:13:31,410
- I'll do it, okay? I'll cover the paving.
- Okay, good.
237
00:13:31,607 --> 00:13:33,241
I guess that's it.
238
00:13:40,970 --> 00:13:41,983
Problem, Miss Gilmore?
239
00:13:41,995 --> 00:13:43,876
No problem at all. I
love this assignment.
240
00:13:44,090 --> 00:13:45,123
I'm glad.
241
00:13:45,256 --> 00:13:47,367
I'll write the best piece
on pavement you've read.
242
00:13:47,545 --> 00:13:48,577
I hope so.
243
00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:51,741
I'll be thrilled with next week's
scoop on the plumbing installation.
244
00:13:51,956 --> 00:13:52,988
I like a team player.
245
00:13:53,121 --> 00:13:56,504
No matter how many crappy,
stupid assignments you throw at me...
246
00:13:56,742 --> 00:13:59,046
I'm not going to quit, and
I'm not going to back down.
247
00:13:59,238 --> 00:14:01,463
You can go home tonight
and think about the fact...
248
00:14:01,651 --> 00:14:03,796
that no matter what you
do and how evil you are...
249
00:14:03,982 --> 00:14:06,366
at the end of the year, on
my high school transcript...
250
00:14:06,562 --> 00:14:08,390
it will say that I
worked on the Franklin.
251
00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:12,623
If you'll excuse me, I have some
reading to do on the origins of concrete.
252
00:14:13,095 --> 00:14:15,128
A thousand words on
my desk on Tuesday.
253
00:14:27,285 --> 00:14:28,431
Sorry.
254
00:14:33,652 --> 00:14:34,720
Hi.
255
00:14:36,149 --> 00:14:37,897
- Sorry.
- No, I just...
256
00:14:38,105 --> 00:14:41,056
- You want some coffee?
- I'll just lick it off the table.
257
00:14:41,267 --> 00:14:42,743
- So?
- So what?
258
00:14:42,890 --> 00:14:44,400
- Is he here?
- He's here.
259
00:14:44,554 --> 00:14:46,348
- Yeah? How is he?
- He's fine.
260
00:14:46,511 --> 00:14:48,384
- Did he see the bed?
- He saw the bed.
261
00:14:48,549 --> 00:14:51,217
- Where is he? I want to meet him.
- He's out.
262
00:14:51,421 --> 00:14:53,327
- Out where?
- I don't know.
263
00:14:53,502 --> 00:14:55,773
- You don't?
- No, he just went out.
264
00:14:55,957 --> 00:14:58,182
- You didn't ask him where he was going?
- No.
265
00:14:58,371 --> 00:15:00,323
- Why not?
- Because he's not two.
266
00:15:00,493 --> 00:15:03,717
But, Luke, he's new in town. He
doesn't know his way around yet.
267
00:15:03,947 --> 00:15:05,820
Way around what?
This is Stars Hollow.
268
00:15:05,986 --> 00:15:08,335
Take three left turns, you're
back in the center of town.
269
00:15:08,524 --> 00:15:11,316
When a kid goes out, you
have to ask where he's going.
270
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,154
- Why?
- Because you're responsible for him now.
271
00:15:14,350 --> 00:15:17,097
If he knocks over a liquor
store, it's going to be your fault.
272
00:15:17,305 --> 00:15:20,733
If I had asked him and he actually
intended to knock off a liquor store...
273
00:15:20,966 --> 00:15:22,680
you really think he
would have told me?
274
00:15:22,839 --> 00:15:25,302
- If he's dumb.
- He's fine. New topic.
275
00:15:25,628 --> 00:15:27,660
LUKE: Jess, good. I'd
like you to meet someone.
276
00:15:27,833 --> 00:15:30,421
Hi. I'm Lorelai.
277
00:15:30,662 --> 00:15:33,012
I wanted to meet you
before Luke filled your head...
278
00:15:33,201 --> 00:15:34,791
with all kinds of lies about me.
279
00:15:35,324 --> 00:15:37,515
You should meet my
daughter. She's about your age.
280
00:15:37,695 --> 00:15:40,045
She can show you where
all the good wilding goes on.
281
00:15:41,815 --> 00:15:44,164
Okay, it's nice to meet you.
282
00:15:44,353 --> 00:15:46,226
I hope you like it here.
283
00:15:47,682 --> 00:15:49,715
So, class dismissed.
284
00:15:49,971 --> 00:15:52,196
LUKE: Are you
hungry? 'Cause I can...
285
00:15:53,924 --> 00:15:55,434
- So that's Jess.
- Yep.
286
00:15:55,589 --> 00:15:56,940
Very chatty.
287
00:15:57,212 --> 00:15:59,357
He's adjusting.
He just got here.
288
00:15:59,542 --> 00:16:02,335
He probably just realized
there are 12 stores in this town...
289
00:16:02,538 --> 00:16:04,684
devoted entirely to
peddling porcelain unicorns.
290
00:16:04,869 --> 00:16:07,775
I've lived in this town my
entire life, I still can't believe it.
291
00:16:07,990 --> 00:16:10,181
- I'm sure that's it.
- He'll be fine in a few days.
292
00:16:10,362 --> 00:16:12,870
I have a fabulous idea. What
are you doing tomorrow night?
293
00:16:13,066 --> 00:16:14,099
Why?
294
00:16:14,232 --> 00:16:16,104
Why don't you and Jess
come over for dinner?
295
00:16:16,271 --> 00:16:18,178
Sookie will cook,
Rory will be there.
296
00:16:18,351 --> 00:16:20,939
It'll be a little, "Hey,
welcome to Stars Hollow.
297
00:16:21,140 --> 00:16:25,090
"See, everyone here is not straight
out of a Fellini film" kind of an evening.
298
00:16:25,342 --> 00:16:28,249
- Okay, that would be nice. Thanks.
- You're welcome.
299
00:16:28,463 --> 00:16:31,767
- You won't bring up the bed?
- I'll definitely bring up the bed.
300
00:16:36,869 --> 00:16:38,583
- My God, I hate her.
- Me, too.
301
00:16:38,742 --> 00:16:41,205
- You've no idea who I'm talking about.
- Solidarity, sister.
302
00:16:41,406 --> 00:16:43,551
- Paris.
- That I should have guessed.
303
00:16:43,735 --> 00:16:46,687
- She can't torture me off the paper.
- No, she can't.
304
00:16:46,898 --> 00:16:48,329
I have never met
anyone like her.
305
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,829
Her insistence on holding
on to this stupid grudge...
306
00:16:51,018 --> 00:16:52,970
that is based on nothing
and will never end...
307
00:16:53,140 --> 00:16:55,648
shows commitment that I would
have never thought possible.
308
00:16:55,845 --> 00:16:58,116
- I'm beginning to admire her.
- First day sucked?
309
00:16:58,300 --> 00:17:01,728
- Just the paper stuff. The rest was good.
- I'm glad to hear it.
310
00:17:01,962 --> 00:17:04,187
Did you happen to run into Max?
311
00:17:04,542 --> 00:17:06,370
- Actually, no.
- Really?
312
00:17:06,623 --> 00:17:08,576
Yeah. Our paths
just didn't cross.
313
00:17:08,745 --> 00:17:11,050
- Isn't he your lit. teacher?
- Yeah.
314
00:17:11,242 --> 00:17:13,796
But I have really tall
people sitting in front of me.
315
00:17:13,988 --> 00:17:14,986
Rory.
316
00:17:15,903 --> 00:17:18,048
I saw him in the hallway
and I walked the other way.
317
00:17:18,233 --> 00:17:19,265
Why?
318
00:17:19,398 --> 00:17:21,271
I thought that's what
you'd want me to do.
319
00:17:21,437 --> 00:17:23,628
Just because Max isn't a
part of my life anymore...
320
00:17:23,809 --> 00:17:25,603
doesn't mean he
can't be a part of yours.
321
00:17:25,765 --> 00:17:28,274
He has to be. You have
to see him and talk to him.
322
00:17:28,470 --> 00:17:30,457
And that's okay. That's good.
323
00:17:30,634 --> 00:17:32,701
I know everything seems
screwed up right now...
324
00:17:32,881 --> 00:17:34,675
but I don't want
you to avoid him.
325
00:17:34,837 --> 00:17:37,709
- Especially not on my account, okay?
- All right.
326
00:17:37,917 --> 00:17:40,142
- I'm sorry I put you in this position.
- That's okay.
327
00:17:40,330 --> 00:17:42,765
- It's going on the list.
- My God, that list is getting long.
328
00:17:42,910 --> 00:17:44,103
You have no idea.
329
00:17:44,741 --> 00:17:46,489
We are having a
gathering tomorrow night.
330
00:17:46,655 --> 00:17:47,847
What kind of gathering?
331
00:17:47,987 --> 00:17:50,132
Luke's nephew's here
and I thought we could try...
332
00:17:50,317 --> 00:17:51,987
- to make him feel at home.
- You met him?
333
00:17:52,148 --> 00:17:53,658
- Sort of.
- What's he like?
334
00:17:53,812 --> 00:17:55,208
He's not going to be subbing...
335
00:17:55,352 --> 00:17:57,497
for the new dodo on the
Regis show anytime soon.
336
00:17:57,683 --> 00:17:59,078
Let's put it like that.
337
00:18:09,959 --> 00:18:11,707
- You got unpacked?
- Yep.
338
00:18:11,914 --> 00:18:14,548
- Got enough space in the closet?
- Plenty.
339
00:18:15,701 --> 00:18:17,608
- You hungry?
- Eighteen.
340
00:18:18,282 --> 00:18:19,314
What?
341
00:18:19,446 --> 00:18:22,397
Just counting how many
questions till we hit 20.
342
00:18:22,609 --> 00:18:24,198
Okay, never mind.
343
00:18:24,357 --> 00:18:26,229
[Phone ringing]
344
00:18:27,395 --> 00:18:30,267
Yeah, Liz, he got here fine.
345
00:18:30,516 --> 00:18:33,024
- Got here at 10:00 this morning.
- Hang on a second.
346
00:18:33,220 --> 00:18:34,616
- Jess?
- Pass.
347
00:18:35,842 --> 00:18:37,352
- Come on.
- Nope.
348
00:18:37,507 --> 00:18:38,982
What am I supposed to tell her?
349
00:18:39,130 --> 00:18:41,275
Tell her I got to take
another crack at the closet.
350
00:18:41,460 --> 00:18:44,252
I think I hung my Tool T-shirt
next to my Metallica T-shirt...
351
00:18:44,456 --> 00:18:45,454
and they don't get along.
352
00:18:45,579 --> 00:18:46,772
You want me to tell her that?
353
00:18:46,911 --> 00:18:49,818
You think a different band
combo would sell it more?
354
00:18:50,032 --> 00:18:52,337
Yeah, Liz, Jess is going
to have to call you back.
355
00:18:52,529 --> 00:18:56,401
Yeah, he's helping me out with a
shelf thing and his hands are full.
356
00:18:56,649 --> 00:18:59,600
Yeah, I'll tell him. Okay. Bye.
357
00:19:01,393 --> 00:19:04,697
She said to tell you that your
stuff will be here on Friday.
358
00:19:04,930 --> 00:19:06,156
Great. We'll have a party.
359
00:19:06,303 --> 00:19:08,811
You know, your
mom thinks this is...
360
00:19:09,799 --> 00:19:11,990
for the best, for your own good.
361
00:19:13,627 --> 00:19:17,169
Anyhow, I guess you'll just
call her when you feel like it.
362
00:19:17,414 --> 00:19:19,241
Want to play some
poker? $5 bucks a hand?
363
00:19:19,411 --> 00:19:20,637
- No.
- $10?
364
00:19:20,785 --> 00:19:22,216
I can't go higher than $10.
365
00:19:22,366 --> 00:19:24,239
- Okay, $15.
- I don't want to play poker.
366
00:19:24,405 --> 00:19:25,960
- You sure?
- I'm sure.
367
00:19:26,111 --> 00:19:27,178
Okey-dokey.
368
00:19:30,314 --> 00:19:33,061
So listen, Lorelai, you
met her today, remember?
369
00:19:34,184 --> 00:19:35,501
Anyhow...
370
00:19:35,890 --> 00:19:39,591
she invited us to her house
tomorrow night for dinner.
371
00:19:39,926 --> 00:19:42,991
Her daughter Rory, who you
didn't meet, but you'll like...
372
00:19:43,214 --> 00:19:44,689
'cause she's a
lot like Lorelai...
373
00:19:44,837 --> 00:19:48,617
but she's got a slightly
tighter grasp on reality.
374
00:19:49,206 --> 00:19:51,431
Anyhow, she'll be there.
375
00:19:53,368 --> 00:19:56,274
It'd be a chance for you
to meet more people...
376
00:19:56,988 --> 00:19:59,259
and so I said yes.
377
00:20:07,849 --> 00:20:08,847
[Door closing]
378
00:20:14,716 --> 00:20:16,033
- Hello.
- Hi.
379
00:20:16,171 --> 00:20:17,169
You're early.
380
00:20:17,296 --> 00:20:19,248
I felt so bad about
the mix-up last time...
381
00:20:19,418 --> 00:20:21,881
I wanted to make sure
it didn't happen again.
382
00:20:22,123 --> 00:20:23,315
It won't.
383
00:20:24,828 --> 00:20:27,620
Did you hear that Kimber Slately
and Tristin are a major item?
384
00:20:27,824 --> 00:20:30,855
I thought she and Sean Asher
were this year's John and Jackie.
385
00:20:31,069 --> 00:20:32,704
Nope, Sean is with
Dee McGuire now...
386
00:20:32,859 --> 00:20:35,050
which pushed Jeff Traner
into Dottie Lord's arms...
387
00:20:35,231 --> 00:20:37,615
leaving Madison Maylands
alone for the first weekend...
388
00:20:37,811 --> 00:20:39,764
since he became captain
of the lacrosse team.
389
00:20:39,933 --> 00:20:42,283
You know so much so
soon. You have the gift.
390
00:20:42,471 --> 00:20:43,539
I know.
391
00:20:43,679 --> 00:20:47,584
Paris, what do you think about me
writing a gossip column for the Franklin?
392
00:20:48,422 --> 00:20:51,010
I don't know. That's a hard one.
393
00:20:51,418 --> 00:20:53,087
I mean, this is the Franklin...
394
00:20:53,250 --> 00:20:55,555
a newspaper that's been
around for almost 100 years.
395
00:20:55,746 --> 00:20:58,017
There have been 10 former
editors of the Franklin...
396
00:20:58,202 --> 00:20:59,791
that have gone to
the New York Times.
397
00:20:59,950 --> 00:21:01,936
Six have gone on to
the Washington Post.
398
00:21:02,114 --> 00:21:04,497
Three are contributing
editors at the New Yorker.
399
00:21:04,693 --> 00:21:07,327
I think one even went on
to win the Pulitzer prize.
400
00:21:07,523 --> 00:21:08,749
But never mind them.
401
00:21:08,896 --> 00:21:11,450
I could be the first editor in
the history of the Franklin...
402
00:21:11,643 --> 00:21:15,343
to introduce a column exclusively
devoted to who Biffy's boffing today.
403
00:21:15,970 --> 00:21:17,366
Quandary.
404
00:21:17,510 --> 00:21:20,178
I'm going to have to get
back to you on that one.
405
00:21:20,382 --> 00:21:21,449
Okay.
406
00:21:21,588 --> 00:21:23,144
Good, we're all here.
407
00:21:24,293 --> 00:21:26,200
And prompt. Lovely.
408
00:21:27,498 --> 00:21:31,006
I read everyone's article and
they were all extremely well done.
409
00:21:31,284 --> 00:21:33,509
Snappy, informative,
well-researched.
410
00:21:33,906 --> 00:21:36,857
Paris, you should be very proud
of the team you've assembled.
411
00:21:37,069 --> 00:21:38,067
Thank you.
412
00:21:38,192 --> 00:21:41,337
When you've got a reporter who
can take an incredibly mundane...
413
00:21:41,563 --> 00:21:43,469
and seemingly
unimportant subject...
414
00:21:43,643 --> 00:21:45,788
like the repaving of
the faculty parking lot...
415
00:21:45,973 --> 00:21:49,277
and turn it into a bittersweet piece
on how everybody and everything...
416
00:21:49,510 --> 00:21:53,052
eventually becomes obsolete,
then you've really got something.
417
00:21:53,298 --> 00:21:54,773
Miss Gilmore, I was touched.
418
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,191
I owe it all to Paris.
419
00:21:56,336 --> 00:21:59,162
I would strongly advise that
next time you give Miss Gilmore...
420
00:21:59,373 --> 00:22:01,280
something with more meat to it.
421
00:22:01,786 --> 00:22:03,500
Yeah, great idea.
422
00:22:03,743 --> 00:22:05,298
Okay. Let's get down to work.
423
00:22:05,449 --> 00:22:06,846
We've got a layout
to put together.
424
00:22:14,894 --> 00:22:16,121
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
425
00:22:16,268 --> 00:22:17,778
You must be very
proud of yourself.
426
00:22:17,933 --> 00:22:19,919
I'm not hiding
when I pass a mirror.
427
00:22:20,097 --> 00:22:24,320
It's part of my job to make sure that our
best writers are writing our best pieces.
428
00:22:25,257 --> 00:22:27,528
So I'm going to give you
one of our best pieces.
429
00:22:27,712 --> 00:22:29,778
Front page, lead story.
430
00:22:29,959 --> 00:22:31,072
Get to the catch.
431
00:22:31,207 --> 00:22:32,683
- No catch.
- No catch?
432
00:22:32,830 --> 00:22:34,942
I'd like to start our
year off with a profile...
433
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,310
on the teacher voted
most popular from last year.
434
00:22:37,491 --> 00:22:40,283
You know, an in-depth,
no-holds-barred interview.
435
00:22:40,529 --> 00:22:41,675
Everybody wants it.
436
00:22:41,819 --> 00:22:43,170
You have it.
437
00:22:43,317 --> 00:22:45,223
- You're kidding.
- Nope.
438
00:22:46,437 --> 00:22:48,549
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
439
00:22:49,393 --> 00:22:52,061
Go ahead and set up that
interview with Mr. Medina.
440
00:22:52,264 --> 00:22:53,297
What?
441
00:22:53,428 --> 00:22:55,812
I'd love it to lead
off our first edition.
442
00:22:56,758 --> 00:22:58,189
He was the winner
by a landslide.
443
00:22:58,339 --> 00:23:00,167
I'm sorry. Is there a problem?
444
00:23:01,086 --> 00:23:03,913
Is there some reason why you
wouldn't want to interview him?
445
00:23:04,123 --> 00:23:06,159
After all, you of all
people should be able
446
00:23:06,171 --> 00:23:08,267
to get the most in-depth
story out of him...
447
00:23:08,535 --> 00:23:11,089
especially since he and
your mother are involved.
448
00:23:11,365 --> 00:23:12,920
They are still
involved, aren't they?
449
00:23:13,071 --> 00:23:15,783
Let's leave my mother's
personal life out of this.
450
00:23:16,441 --> 00:23:18,189
- That sounds bad.
- It's not bad.
451
00:23:18,356 --> 00:23:20,262
- It's just none of your business.
- Fine.
452
00:23:20,436 --> 00:23:22,468
You want the interview or not?
453
00:23:22,642 --> 00:23:24,311
- Yes, I want the interview.
- Good.
454
00:23:24,473 --> 00:23:27,265
Get me something more
than his favorite color, okay?
455
00:23:31,339 --> 00:23:32,848
Maybe I should
make grilled cheese.
456
00:23:33,003 --> 00:23:34,399
But you're making pot roast.
457
00:23:34,543 --> 00:23:36,052
Not everybody likes pot roast.
458
00:23:36,208 --> 00:23:39,511
Then they can have chicken wings,
the mashed potatoes, the four salads...
459
00:23:39,745 --> 00:23:41,175
in addition to the pot roast.
460
00:23:41,326 --> 00:23:43,074
Yeah, I guess you're right.
461
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,068
So I should start
slicing the cheese.
462
00:23:45,237 --> 00:23:47,110
Would you? That would be great!
463
00:23:47,776 --> 00:23:49,967
Wow, something smells good!
464
00:23:50,148 --> 00:23:51,703
- It's the garlic.
- Three heads of it.
465
00:23:51,854 --> 00:23:53,727
- Nice.
- I want everything to be perfect.
466
00:23:53,893 --> 00:23:56,277
We are going to make this
kid think he went to heaven.
467
00:23:56,474 --> 00:23:58,267
Or Henry the VIII's house.
468
00:23:58,512 --> 00:24:00,101
- Milady?
- Come in.
469
00:24:01,425 --> 00:24:03,173
- You joining the festivities?
- In a sec.
470
00:24:03,339 --> 00:24:04,928
- You sound crabby.
- I'm concentrating.
471
00:24:05,087 --> 00:24:06,358
Don't concentrate too hard.
472
00:24:06,502 --> 00:24:07,648
Boys like them dumb. Right?
473
00:24:07,792 --> 00:24:10,300
If you can navigate yourself
around a tree, keep on walking.
474
00:24:10,497 --> 00:24:11,494
[Knocking at door]
475
00:24:11,620 --> 00:24:12,618
Coming!
476
00:24:13,036 --> 00:24:14,784
What if he doesn't do dairy?
477
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,348
Perfect timing.
478
00:24:18,486 --> 00:24:21,551
Sookie's about to break her own
record for the most food served.
479
00:24:21,774 --> 00:24:23,283
- Sounds great.
- Sure does.
480
00:24:23,439 --> 00:24:24,949
So, come on in.
481
00:24:29,597 --> 00:24:30,993
Sorry we're a little late.
482
00:24:31,137 --> 00:24:34,327
We had a misunderstanding about
what time we were supposed to leave.
483
00:24:34,550 --> 00:24:36,105
That's okay. How's it going?
484
00:24:36,256 --> 00:24:38,322
LUKE: Not bad. The bed popped.
485
00:24:39,127 --> 00:24:40,353
- Was anyone in it?
- Me.
486
00:24:40,500 --> 00:24:42,089
- You?
- I let him take the real one.
487
00:24:42,248 --> 00:24:44,076
It was very nice of you.
488
00:24:47,117 --> 00:24:49,671
LORELAI: You want to
come on in the kitchen?
489
00:24:50,696 --> 00:24:53,159
Sookie, Jackson, I want
you to meet Luke's nephew.
490
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,073
- This is Jess.
- Do you eat cheese?
491
00:24:55,231 --> 00:24:56,344
What?
492
00:24:56,729 --> 00:24:59,680
This is the greatest lemon I've
ever grown! This is a great lemon.
493
00:24:59,892 --> 00:25:02,083
Sookie, you got
to try this lemon.
494
00:25:02,264 --> 00:25:03,581
That is a great lemon!
495
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,753
Try it! It's a Meyer!
496
00:25:04,885 --> 00:25:07,110
Jackson grows fruit
and scares people with it.
497
00:25:07,299 --> 00:25:09,047
- Rory, they're here.
- Coming.
498
00:25:11,044 --> 00:25:12,440
- Hey.
- Hey.
499
00:25:12,668 --> 00:25:13,700
I'm Rory.
500
00:25:13,916 --> 00:25:16,504
- Yeah, I figured.
- Nice to meet you.
501
00:25:18,493 --> 00:25:20,684
Aren't we hooked on phonics?
502
00:25:20,865 --> 00:25:23,010
I read a lot. Do you read?
503
00:25:24,361 --> 00:25:25,837
Not much.
504
00:25:25,983 --> 00:25:28,094
I could loan you
that. It's great.
505
00:25:28,647 --> 00:25:30,441
No, thanks.
506
00:25:30,603 --> 00:25:32,272
If you change your mind.
507
00:25:32,517 --> 00:25:34,504
We need to get Jackson
away from the lemons...
508
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,553
so we're moving the
feast to the living room.
509
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,116
Be right there.
510
00:25:39,549 --> 00:25:40,617
Do these open?
511
00:25:40,757 --> 00:25:42,823
You just have to unlatch
them and then push.
512
00:25:43,003 --> 00:25:44,274
Great. Shall we?
513
00:25:44,418 --> 00:25:46,371
- Shall we what?
- Bail.
514
00:25:46,998 --> 00:25:48,667
- No.
- Why?
515
00:25:48,829 --> 00:25:51,100
Because it's Tuesday
night in Stars Hollow.
516
00:25:51,284 --> 00:25:52,601
There's nowhere to bail to.
517
00:25:52,741 --> 00:25:54,648
The 24-hour mini-mart
closed 20 minutes ago.
518
00:25:54,821 --> 00:25:57,568
We'll walk around or sit on a
bench and stare at our shoes.
519
00:25:57,777 --> 00:26:00,047
Sookie just made a
ton of really great food...
520
00:26:00,231 --> 00:26:03,501
and though it may not seem like it
at this moment, it's going to be fun.
521
00:26:03,727 --> 00:26:05,521
- Trust me.
- I don't even know you.
522
00:26:05,683 --> 00:26:07,352
- Don't I look trustworthy?
- Maybe.
523
00:26:07,513 --> 00:26:09,023
Good. Let's eat.
524
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:12,946
You want a soda?
525
00:26:13,090 --> 00:26:15,156
- I'll get it.
- Okay.
526
00:26:28,071 --> 00:26:30,265
SOOKIE: Do you know Pam
was originally made out of rice?
527
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:31,357
What?
528
00:26:32,523 --> 00:26:33,636
LUKE: Rory, where's Jess?
529
00:26:33,771 --> 00:26:35,202
He's getting a soda.
530
00:26:35,395 --> 00:26:36,904
You must've mistaken me for you.
531
00:26:37,059 --> 00:26:38,853
- Too much?
- I forgot the garlic bread.
532
00:26:39,016 --> 00:26:40,287
I'll get it.
533
00:26:42,053 --> 00:26:43,483
JACKSON: More
potatoes? RORY: Okay.
534
00:26:43,634 --> 00:26:45,303
SOOKIE: Everyone
needs more potatoes.
535
00:26:45,465 --> 00:26:48,688
- Nothing wrong with potatoes.
- I've got 6 pounds in the oven.
536
00:26:51,582 --> 00:26:52,899
SOOKIE: More chicken?
537
00:26:53,039 --> 00:26:55,230
- Throw a couple of bird wings on there.
- All right.
538
00:26:55,411 --> 00:26:58,442
LUKE: Salad, no dressing.
SOOKIE: Want some more?
539
00:26:59,073 --> 00:27:00,548
SOOKIE: You want
some? RORY: Okay.
540
00:27:09,143 --> 00:27:11,414
[Sighing] For me? Hey, thanks.
541
00:27:14,594 --> 00:27:15,911
Refreshing.
542
00:27:17,008 --> 00:27:19,313
- So what? You're not hungry?
- Not really.
543
00:27:20,254 --> 00:27:23,127
Sookie made you some grilled
cheese if you don't like pot roast.
544
00:27:23,333 --> 00:27:25,240
Well, if I'd known that.
545
00:27:27,037 --> 00:27:29,625
- Let me guess. You don't want to be here.
- Doesn't matter.
546
00:27:29,825 --> 00:27:32,016
I mean, here in Stars Hollow.
547
00:27:32,197 --> 00:27:33,230
Jeez, Miss Gilmore.
548
00:27:33,362 --> 00:27:35,633
Why would anyone not want
to be here in Stars Hollow?
549
00:27:35,817 --> 00:27:37,565
That just sounds plum crazy.
550
00:27:37,773 --> 00:27:39,964
Jess, let me give
you a little advice.
551
00:27:40,478 --> 00:27:42,703
The whole "my parents
don't get me" thing...
552
00:27:42,892 --> 00:27:44,606
- I've been there.
- You have?
553
00:27:44,764 --> 00:27:48,227
Yes, I have. I've also done
the "chip on my shoulder" bit.
554
00:27:48,468 --> 00:27:52,090
The surly, sarcastic "the
world can bite my ass" bit.
555
00:27:52,588 --> 00:27:55,494
And let me tell you, I
mastered them all. In heels, yet.
556
00:27:55,708 --> 00:27:58,342
Everything you're feeling
might be totally justified.
557
00:27:58,538 --> 00:28:00,172
Maybe you are getting screwed.
558
00:28:00,328 --> 00:28:02,962
But Luke is a great guy.
559
00:28:03,948 --> 00:28:05,219
He's very special.
560
00:28:05,362 --> 00:28:09,506
And he really wants to take care
of you and make things right for you.
561
00:28:10,565 --> 00:28:12,948
You're incredibly
lucky to have him.
562
00:28:13,187 --> 00:28:15,253
If you give this
situation half a chance...
563
00:28:15,433 --> 00:28:17,545
you might be surprised
at how good it can be.
564
00:28:17,722 --> 00:28:19,312
How much you like living here...
565
00:28:19,470 --> 00:28:23,659
how comfortable it feels to have
someone like Luke you can really depend on.
566
00:28:24,505 --> 00:28:26,776
What? Are you sleeping
with him or something?
567
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:27,993
Excuse me?
568
00:28:28,125 --> 00:28:29,397
The whole starry-eyed...
569
00:28:29,540 --> 00:28:32,094
"you're so much better off,
just give it a chance" speech.
570
00:28:32,287 --> 00:28:35,352
You're either really naive
or you're getting some.
571
00:28:36,573 --> 00:28:38,560
There have been very
few moments in my life...
572
00:28:38,737 --> 00:28:41,802
where I've actually wished I had
one of those enormous cream pies...
573
00:28:42,024 --> 00:28:44,850
you can smash in someone's
face. This is definitely one of them.
574
00:28:45,062 --> 00:28:46,458
Now that's not very neighborly.
575
00:28:46,601 --> 00:28:48,395
You know what? This is my house.
576
00:28:48,558 --> 00:28:50,590
I choose how I
get talked to in it.
577
00:28:50,763 --> 00:28:54,305
You don't know anything about
me, or my life, or my mom, or Luke.
578
00:28:54,550 --> 00:28:56,582
So why don't you
Dr. Laura someone else?
579
00:28:56,755 --> 00:28:59,343
I'm going inside.
Stay out of my fridge.
580
00:29:06,535 --> 00:29:07,602
Where's Jess?
581
00:29:07,741 --> 00:29:10,375
Outside working on his
Breakfast Club audition. He's good.
582
00:29:10,571 --> 00:29:12,205
- What?
- I'm sorry.
583
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,665
That kid is way more
screwed up than you think he is.
584
00:29:14,857 --> 00:29:16,843
- What?
- I catch him outside with a beer.
585
00:29:17,021 --> 00:29:19,326
I don't even bust him
on it. I try talking to him.
586
00:29:19,518 --> 00:29:21,584
What do you mean "talk
to him"? What did you say?
587
00:29:21,765 --> 00:29:25,113
I said he's got a good thing going
here with you and he shouldn't blow it.
588
00:29:25,344 --> 00:29:26,490
Then he just got charming.
589
00:29:26,634 --> 00:29:29,097
What are you doing talking
to him about stuff like that?
590
00:29:29,297 --> 00:29:31,442
- I'm trying to help you.
- I don't need your help.
591
00:29:31,627 --> 00:29:32,625
You do.
592
00:29:32,751 --> 00:29:35,498
Here we go again with this.
I'm not prepared for this crap.
593
00:29:35,705 --> 00:29:39,247
This is not crap. This is the truth.
You should've heard him talking.
594
00:29:39,493 --> 00:29:40,923
I don't need to
hear him talking.
595
00:29:41,074 --> 00:29:42,902
He's my nephew and I
know what I'm doing...
596
00:29:43,071 --> 00:29:45,262
and I'm getting tired of
your condescending...
597
00:29:45,443 --> 00:29:48,588
- I'm not being condescending.
- You have a kid, so you know everything?
598
00:29:48,813 --> 00:29:51,447
I have a kid, so I know
a little more than you do.
599
00:29:51,644 --> 00:29:54,312
You ever think maybe
you just got lucky with Rory?
600
00:29:54,514 --> 00:29:55,910
You did get pregnant at 16.
601
00:29:56,055 --> 00:29:59,483
That doesn't show the greatest
decision-making skills, does it?
602
00:29:59,799 --> 00:30:01,672
Two pies.
603
00:30:01,839 --> 00:30:04,904
- What the hell are you talking about?
- I'm talking about nothing.
604
00:30:05,126 --> 00:30:08,032
You won't have to hear my opinion
on anything ever again, okay?
605
00:30:08,247 --> 00:30:10,233
- Don't tease.
- Go find Jess.
606
00:30:10,869 --> 00:30:12,776
Don't tell me what to do.
607
00:30:18,734 --> 00:30:20,929
RORY: You're being completely
childish. LORELAI: Am not.
608
00:30:21,023 --> 00:30:24,134
We're never going to go into Luke's
again? We're just going to starve?
609
00:30:24,351 --> 00:30:26,542
This was a bad one. This
was not Nick and Nora.
610
00:30:26,724 --> 00:30:28,710
This was Sid and Nancy.
I'm not going in there.
611
00:30:28,888 --> 00:30:30,636
The coffee is in
there. It's Danish day.
612
00:30:30,801 --> 00:30:34,105
Are you telling me you'll let a
fight get in the way of Danish day?
613
00:30:34,338 --> 00:30:35,371
- No.
- Good.
614
00:30:35,504 --> 00:30:37,695
Go in and order two coffees
and two Danishes to go.
615
00:30:37,876 --> 00:30:38,989
You're kidding, right?
616
00:30:39,124 --> 00:30:41,315
He's going to know what's
going on. He's not stupid.
617
00:30:41,496 --> 00:30:44,686
He cannot prove that you're not
ordering all that for yourself, can he?
618
00:30:44,908 --> 00:30:46,577
No, so go on.
619
00:30:47,239 --> 00:30:49,191
Scoot. Mommy's right here.
620
00:30:54,105 --> 00:30:55,899
- Hey, Luke.
- Rory.
621
00:30:56,061 --> 00:30:58,807
I'll have two coffees and two
cherry Danishes to go, please.
622
00:30:59,015 --> 00:31:01,569
- Two coffees and two cherry Danishes.
- And some napkins.
623
00:31:01,762 --> 00:31:03,907
- One of these is for her, isn't it?
- Who?
624
00:31:04,384 --> 00:31:08,130
No. They're all for me. I
am super hungry today.
625
00:31:08,379 --> 00:31:11,490
I was debating ordering three,
but I'll tell you how I feel after two.
626
00:31:11,708 --> 00:31:13,819
I'll give you one Danish
and one cup of coffee.
627
00:31:13,996 --> 00:31:16,459
You can sit there and eat
and when you're finished...
628
00:31:16,660 --> 00:31:18,329
I'll bring you a second one.
629
00:31:18,491 --> 00:31:20,715
You're going to stand there
and watch me eat a Danish?
630
00:31:20,904 --> 00:31:22,698
Cable's out. I'm starved
for entertainment.
631
00:31:22,860 --> 00:31:25,766
This is insane. So
you guys had a fight.
632
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:28,251
Big deal. You know you're
going to make up anyway.
633
00:31:28,436 --> 00:31:30,264
What better day to
make up than Danish day?
634
00:31:30,433 --> 00:31:31,909
The happiest of all days.
635
00:31:32,057 --> 00:31:34,486
The day when we all say,
"Let's forgive and forget..."
636
00:31:34,679 --> 00:31:36,427
"Over a nice Danish
and a cup of coffee."
637
00:31:36,592 --> 00:31:38,942
One Danish, one cup of
coffee. Take it or leave it.
638
00:31:39,130 --> 00:31:40,526
I'll take it.
639
00:31:41,670 --> 00:31:43,736
I still think
you're being silly.
640
00:31:43,917 --> 00:31:46,221
Thank you for sharing.
Come back soon.
641
00:31:54,444 --> 00:31:56,794
- Well?
- He would only sell me one.
642
00:31:57,232 --> 00:32:00,059
- Didn't you say they were both for you?
- He knew I was lying.
643
00:32:00,354 --> 00:32:03,419
Did you do the blinky thing?
You always do it when you're lying.
644
00:32:03,641 --> 00:32:04,639
I didn't have to.
645
00:32:04,765 --> 00:32:07,148
He knows that you're not
going to go a whole day...
646
00:32:07,345 --> 00:32:09,456
with no coffee and
especially no Danish.
647
00:32:09,634 --> 00:32:11,859
Why don't you go in
there now and make up?
648
00:32:12,047 --> 00:32:14,431
Why don't you give me half
your Danish and some coffee?
649
00:32:14,627 --> 00:32:16,739
I'll give you the Danish
but I'm keeping the coffee.
650
00:32:16,916 --> 00:32:18,550
What is a Danish without coffee?
651
00:32:18,705 --> 00:32:20,339
The eternal question
springs up again.
652
00:32:20,494 --> 00:32:22,957
There's no point in even
eating a Danish without coffee.
653
00:32:23,158 --> 00:32:25,303
- I'm going to school.
- Sad Danish. Lonely Danish.
654
00:32:25,488 --> 00:32:27,554
- Step-Danish.
- I'll see you tonight.
655
00:32:31,771 --> 00:32:32,997
Hey, kid.
656
00:32:33,519 --> 00:32:35,392
Do me a favor? Come here.
657
00:32:41,551 --> 00:32:42,697
Please?
658
00:32:46,919 --> 00:32:48,428
[Phone ringing]
659
00:32:50,206 --> 00:32:51,204
Luke's.
660
00:32:52,037 --> 00:32:53,229
What is it, Taylor?
661
00:32:54,243 --> 00:32:55,639
Slow down. You're babbling.
662
00:32:57,780 --> 00:32:59,289
How do you know it was Jess?
663
00:33:01,109 --> 00:33:03,334
Okay, Taylor. I'll talk to him.
664
00:33:03,523 --> 00:33:06,270
But if he tells me he didn't do
it and nobody saw him do it...
665
00:33:06,477 --> 00:33:08,588
then he is off the
hook. Understand?
666
00:33:19,544 --> 00:33:20,657
Hi.
667
00:33:21,749 --> 00:33:23,577
- Am I too early? 'Cause I can...
- No.
668
00:33:23,747 --> 00:33:25,733
- Come back some other time.
- This is fine.
669
00:33:25,911 --> 00:33:28,056
- Tomorrow, maybe.
- Now is good.
670
00:33:29,697 --> 00:33:31,763
- This is weird.
- Yeah, it is.
671
00:33:31,986 --> 00:33:35,176
- I don't really know how to act.
- I'm not sure of that myself.
672
00:33:37,479 --> 00:33:39,069
- We could sit.
- Sit?
673
00:33:39,227 --> 00:33:41,691
Sure, that's good.
Barbara Walters sits.
674
00:33:41,890 --> 00:33:43,877
Or walks, if the
person she's talking to...
675
00:33:44,054 --> 00:33:47,324
has a horse or a ranch or
a big backyard sometimes...
676
00:33:47,549 --> 00:33:49,536
but usually she just sits.
677
00:33:51,877 --> 00:33:54,624
I guess we should just start.
678
00:33:54,915 --> 00:33:56,108
Good idea.
679
00:33:56,246 --> 00:33:58,914
- Do you mind if I tape this?
- Not at all.
680
00:34:02,156 --> 00:34:04,267
I guess I'll just dive in.
681
00:34:05,069 --> 00:34:08,100
- Full name?
- Max Arturo Medina.
682
00:34:08,315 --> 00:34:10,109
- You're kidding?
- No. I'm not.
683
00:34:10,270 --> 00:34:13,256
- Where does that come from?
- My father's butcher was named Arturo.
684
00:34:13,475 --> 00:34:15,666
- Really?
- When my mother was pregnant with me...
685
00:34:15,847 --> 00:34:17,799
she would eat only Iamb chops.
686
00:34:17,969 --> 00:34:20,194
Arturo would cut her the
extra-large Iamb chops...
687
00:34:20,382 --> 00:34:22,653
and only charge her for the
regular-size Iamb chops...
688
00:34:22,838 --> 00:34:25,029
which in my family made
you eligible for sainthood.
689
00:34:25,209 --> 00:34:27,116
- Hence the Arturo.
- That's right.
690
00:34:27,291 --> 00:34:29,039
I assume that you are aware...
691
00:34:29,204 --> 00:34:31,917
that you were voted the
students' favorite teacher last year.
692
00:34:32,118 --> 00:34:34,626
I teach an exceptional
bunch of young people.
693
00:34:34,822 --> 00:34:37,331
I'm glad they seem to like
me as much as I like them.
694
00:34:37,527 --> 00:34:39,877
Have you thought of doing
something other than teaching?
695
00:34:40,065 --> 00:34:42,574
My father wanted
me to be a doctor...
696
00:34:42,896 --> 00:34:45,279
and my mother wanted
me to be President.
697
00:34:45,475 --> 00:34:48,143
I wanted to be a clown.
698
00:34:48,471 --> 00:34:49,504
What?
699
00:34:49,637 --> 00:34:51,351
When I was a kid, I
went to the circus...
700
00:34:51,509 --> 00:34:55,131
and I saw this man who was
dressed in this crazy outfit.
701
00:34:55,504 --> 00:34:58,853
He could juggle and he rode on an
elephant and the people loved him.
702
00:34:59,083 --> 00:35:01,388
I thought, "That's
it. That's for me."
703
00:35:01,580 --> 00:35:03,613
- How long did that last?
- Junior high.
704
00:35:03,785 --> 00:35:06,169
And then slowly I figured
out that I wanted to teach.
705
00:35:06,365 --> 00:35:08,999
Plus, when you told people
that you wanted to be a clown...
706
00:35:09,195 --> 00:35:11,545
they tended to
get very frightened.
707
00:35:11,733 --> 00:35:15,241
Mom took me to the circus
once when I was really little...
708
00:35:15,479 --> 00:35:18,191
and this clown knocked into me
and I dropped my cotton candy.
709
00:35:18,392 --> 00:35:20,220
We didn't have a lot
of money back then...
710
00:35:20,389 --> 00:35:23,136
so she couldn't buy me
another one and I started crying.
711
00:35:23,344 --> 00:35:26,090
She literally chased
the clown onstage...
712
00:35:26,298 --> 00:35:28,806
ripped off his wig and said
she wouldn't give it back...
713
00:35:29,003 --> 00:35:31,432
- unless he bought me another candy.
- Which I bet he did.
714
00:35:31,625 --> 00:35:34,259
It was twice as big and I
threw up all the way home.
715
00:35:34,454 --> 00:35:35,522
Yeah.
716
00:35:36,535 --> 00:35:38,522
That sounds like your mom.
717
00:35:39,739 --> 00:35:42,532
Do you ever regret the fact
that you didn't become a clown?
718
00:35:42,735 --> 00:35:44,449
I don't really
believe in regrets.
719
00:35:44,608 --> 00:35:48,355
All my experiences, even the ones that
didn't turn out the way I wanted them to...
720
00:35:48,603 --> 00:35:50,748
I firmly believe they
were all worth it.
721
00:35:58,049 --> 00:36:00,082
I just want you to know...
722
00:36:00,421 --> 00:36:03,055
I really wanted you
to be my stepfather.
723
00:36:06,538 --> 00:36:08,524
[Sighing] I just
want you to know...
724
00:36:09,243 --> 00:36:11,309
I really wanted to
be your stepfather.
725
00:36:22,268 --> 00:36:25,174
What would you say
are the great challenges...
726
00:36:25,389 --> 00:36:28,772
- facing high school graduates today?
- A myriad of things, really.
727
00:36:36,292 --> 00:36:38,199
- How was school?
- Great.
728
00:36:38,664 --> 00:36:40,696
- You learn anything good?
- Yeah, tons of things.
729
00:36:40,870 --> 00:36:43,855
I got gold stars plastered
all over my forehead.
730
00:36:44,448 --> 00:36:46,038
I had an interesting call today.
731
00:36:46,195 --> 00:36:48,182
- Want to know who it was from?
- Not really.
732
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,072
From Taylor Doose. You
know, he owns the market.
733
00:36:51,273 --> 00:36:53,544
- If you say so.
- He said you came in today.
734
00:36:53,728 --> 00:36:56,237
He said you took some
money out of a donation cup...
735
00:36:56,433 --> 00:36:57,659
to help repair the bridge.
736
00:36:57,806 --> 00:37:01,507
I told him he was crazy, you
wouldn't do that, you weren't a thief.
737
00:37:01,759 --> 00:37:03,155
Then I hung up on him.
738
00:37:03,299 --> 00:37:05,649
Don't get me wrong. I
enjoy hanging up on Taylor.
739
00:37:05,838 --> 00:37:06,905
And he is crazy.
740
00:37:07,044 --> 00:37:10,075
I was just wondering if maybe
any of the things he said were true.
741
00:37:10,290 --> 00:37:11,288
What do you think?
742
00:37:11,414 --> 00:37:14,082
If you tell me what he's
saying is not true, I'll believe it.
743
00:37:14,285 --> 00:37:16,556
- It's not true.
- That doesn't sound very convincing.
744
00:37:16,740 --> 00:37:18,329
What do you want from me?
745
00:37:18,488 --> 00:37:20,520
You bring me here,
you put me in a school...
746
00:37:20,694 --> 00:37:23,123
that says the Pledge of
Allegiance in six languages...
747
00:37:23,315 --> 00:37:24,904
two of which I've
never heard of!
748
00:37:25,063 --> 00:37:27,776
You take me away from my home,
my friends, and now you want...
749
00:37:27,976 --> 00:37:29,883
- what from me?
- I'm trying to help you!
750
00:37:30,056 --> 00:37:31,054
Stop trying!
751
00:37:31,180 --> 00:37:34,563
Stop talking to me, stop following
me, stop asking me questions! Just stop!
752
00:37:34,801 --> 00:37:35,913
That's what you want?
753
00:37:36,049 --> 00:37:37,524
- That's really what you want?
- Yes.
754
00:37:37,672 --> 00:37:38,705
Fine! You got it!
755
00:37:38,837 --> 00:37:40,824
- Thank you.
- You're welcome!
756
00:37:52,736 --> 00:37:53,803
LORELAI: Rory?
757
00:37:53,943 --> 00:37:55,339
Kitchen!
758
00:37:55,981 --> 00:37:59,330
Nowhere in either Stars Hollow
or its surrounding counties...
759
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,751
can you get a
decent cup of coffee.
760
00:38:01,933 --> 00:38:05,554
I swear. It's like a big,
stupid coffee conspiracy.
761
00:38:05,844 --> 00:38:07,955
Why don't you pour the
water right into the bag?
762
00:38:08,132 --> 00:38:10,800
You jest? Believe me, the
thought has crossed my mind.
763
00:38:11,004 --> 00:38:13,309
It's looking
better all the time.
764
00:38:13,501 --> 00:38:15,726
Where are you going? I'm
not through complaining.
765
00:38:15,915 --> 00:38:17,742
I just have to get some
more notes I need.
766
00:38:17,912 --> 00:38:19,229
- What's this?
- What?
767
00:38:19,368 --> 00:38:21,037
This that you're working on?
768
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,425
That's my interview with Max.
769
00:38:23,738 --> 00:38:24,770
What interview with Max?
770
00:38:24,903 --> 00:38:26,254
The paper wanted
to do a piece...
771
00:38:26,401 --> 00:38:28,750
on the students' favorite
teacher from the previous year.
772
00:38:28,939 --> 00:38:31,402
Paris assigned it to me when
she caught wind of the fact...
773
00:38:31,603 --> 00:38:33,510
- Nice kid, that Paris.
- Yeah.
774
00:38:33,850 --> 00:38:36,642
It wasn't that bad, though.
It was actually good.
775
00:38:36,846 --> 00:38:38,798
It gave us a chance to
talk about some things.
776
00:38:38,968 --> 00:38:40,637
- Good.
- Yeah. It was good.
777
00:38:40,799 --> 00:38:43,307
I'm going to buy a folder
for it before the store closes.
778
00:38:43,504 --> 00:38:44,571
Okay.
779
00:38:46,791 --> 00:38:48,698
Some good writing here, missy.
780
00:38:48,872 --> 00:38:50,189
- Yeah?
- Really good.
781
00:38:50,329 --> 00:38:53,474
It's not quite up to the repaving
piece yet, but I'll get it there.
782
00:38:53,699 --> 00:38:55,732
Boy, he sounds like a
hell of a guy, doesn't he?
783
00:38:55,904 --> 00:38:57,335
Yeah, he does.
784
00:39:00,732 --> 00:39:03,196
I sure know how to
dump them, don't I?
785
00:39:03,395 --> 00:39:04,791
[Knocking at door]
786
00:39:09,637 --> 00:39:11,908
- I just pushed him in a lake.
- What?
787
00:39:12,675 --> 00:39:15,422
I got this call from Taylor that
Jess stole the bridge money.
788
00:39:15,629 --> 00:39:18,093
I went to confront him and
he was being impossible...
789
00:39:18,293 --> 00:39:21,358
and I just pushed him
in a lake. This is bad.
790
00:39:21,581 --> 00:39:25,089
- That depends. Can he swim?
- He's fine. He's wet. I lost it.
791
00:39:25,325 --> 00:39:26,393
You were right.
792
00:39:26,532 --> 00:39:29,677
I am in so far over my head
that I can't see my own hat.
793
00:39:29,903 --> 00:39:31,049
Try turning it around.
794
00:39:31,193 --> 00:39:33,498
What was I thinking?
Why did I say yes to this?
795
00:39:33,690 --> 00:39:36,960
You saw a kid in need of help and
you thought you'd throw him a line.
796
00:39:37,185 --> 00:39:39,172
But me? Raising a kid?
I don't even like kids.
797
00:39:39,349 --> 00:39:41,983
They're always sticky, like
they've got jam on their hands.
798
00:39:42,179 --> 00:39:43,813
Even if there's no
jam in the house...
799
00:39:43,969 --> 00:39:45,875
somehow they've always
got jam on their hands.
800
00:39:46,049 --> 00:39:49,000
I'm not the guy to deal with it. I
have no patience for jam hands.
801
00:39:49,212 --> 00:39:52,197
Okay, slow down.
First of all, Jess is 17...
802
00:39:52,415 --> 00:39:54,765
so he's probably past the
jam hands stage by now.
803
00:39:54,955 --> 00:39:59,415
Second of all, you can do this. If
you want to, you are totally capable.
804
00:39:59,740 --> 00:40:02,010
But you can't just buy a
bed and some sheets...
805
00:40:02,195 --> 00:40:04,863
and expect the rest to take
care of itself. That won't work.
806
00:40:05,067 --> 00:40:06,304
I swear, I'm going to kill Liz.
807
00:40:06,397 --> 00:40:09,224
Liz is not the point anymore.
Liz is not here. Jess is here.
808
00:40:09,436 --> 00:40:11,899
Focus on him. What are
you going to do about him?
809
00:40:12,098 --> 00:40:14,925
Sugar, I hate to bother you,
but have you seen Pierpon?
810
00:40:15,553 --> 00:40:17,744
- No. Why?
- It's the darnedest thing.
811
00:40:17,925 --> 00:40:20,479
I came out just now and I
noticed that he was gone.
812
00:40:20,671 --> 00:40:22,623
- Just like that.
- I'm sorry. Who's missing?
813
00:40:22,794 --> 00:40:25,019
- Pierpon, gorgeous.
- Her gnome.
814
00:40:25,748 --> 00:40:27,258
The one with the pipe.
815
00:40:27,412 --> 00:40:29,445
Oh, God, I hope
nothing's happened to him.
816
00:40:29,618 --> 00:40:31,446
You get so attached
to their little faces...
817
00:40:31,616 --> 00:40:33,761
sometimes you can hear
them talk to you at night.
818
00:40:33,946 --> 00:40:35,818
You know, I wouldn't
worry, Babette.
819
00:40:35,985 --> 00:40:38,857
I think you're going to see
Pierpon again. Really soon.
820
00:40:39,564 --> 00:40:42,232
- Where are you going?
- I have to take care of something.
821
00:40:42,435 --> 00:40:45,023
I'll see you tomorrow at the
diner for your Danish, right?
822
00:40:45,223 --> 00:40:47,096
- Tomorrow isn't Danish day.
- Just be there.
823
00:40:47,262 --> 00:40:48,579
Yes, sir.
824
00:40:55,377 --> 00:40:56,569
Okay.
825
00:40:56,709 --> 00:41:00,932
We got the patch, the
gum, hypnosis tapes...
826
00:41:01,202 --> 00:41:04,154
Chinese herbs,
self-help books...
827
00:41:04,365 --> 00:41:08,066
and several pictures of diseased
lungs to hang on the fridge.
828
00:41:08,318 --> 00:41:09,510
Pretty?
829
00:41:09,650 --> 00:41:11,001
This is done.
830
00:41:11,149 --> 00:41:14,895
You will get up, you will go
to school, you will come home.
831
00:41:15,144 --> 00:41:18,254
You will work in the diner until
closing, you will do your homework...
832
00:41:18,472 --> 00:41:20,220
then you will go to bed.
Where's the gnome?
833
00:41:20,428 --> 00:41:21,461
What?
834
00:41:21,593 --> 00:41:24,783
Weekends are for chores and
selected pre-approved outings...
835
00:41:25,006 --> 00:41:28,389
i.e. Cabala studies, freeway
beautification projects...
836
00:41:28,626 --> 00:41:32,814
Color Me Mine pottery
painting, all discussable options.
837
00:41:33,245 --> 00:41:36,390
You will not steal. You will
pay back Taylor Doose...
838
00:41:36,616 --> 00:41:40,566
you will graduate from high school,
and you will return Pierpon to his yard.
839
00:41:40,819 --> 00:41:42,885
- You can't just...
- I can just.
840
00:41:43,066 --> 00:41:45,291
I am not letting you fall
off the face of the earth.
841
00:41:45,479 --> 00:41:49,350
You will not drift. I won't let it happen.
I don't know if this is the right way...
842
00:41:49,599 --> 00:41:53,663
but this is the way it's being handled
and that is the end of this discussion.
843
00:41:56,548 --> 00:41:58,455
- Where are you going?
- Out.
844
00:41:59,254 --> 00:42:00,286
[Door banging]
845
00:42:00,418 --> 00:42:01,531
At least I asked.
846
00:42:10,489 --> 00:42:11,522
Hey.
847
00:42:11,655 --> 00:42:13,641
- Hey, yourself.
- What are you doing out here?
848
00:42:13,818 --> 00:42:15,804
I needed something for
school. What about you?
849
00:42:15,982 --> 00:42:17,333
Yeah, same thing.
850
00:42:18,895 --> 00:42:22,165
So, that was quite a disappearing
act you pulled the other night.
851
00:42:22,390 --> 00:42:24,944
Potlucks and Tupperware
parties aren't really my thing.
852
00:42:25,137 --> 00:42:27,645
- Too cool for school?
- Yes, that is me.
853
00:42:28,217 --> 00:42:30,362
- What are you doing?
- This?
854
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,146
Nothing.
855
00:42:34,625 --> 00:42:36,975
Just another little
disappearing act.
856
00:42:37,163 --> 00:42:38,434
- Little tip?
- Yeah.
857
00:42:38,578 --> 00:42:41,132
If you want to speak to me,
don't pull that out of my ear.
858
00:42:41,325 --> 00:42:43,153
I assume the nose
is off-limits, too.
859
00:42:43,322 --> 00:42:45,229
Any place you wouldn't
naturally find a coin.
860
00:42:45,402 --> 00:42:46,992
Let's leave it that way.
861
00:42:48,774 --> 00:42:50,363
So what are you doing now?
862
00:42:50,521 --> 00:42:52,553
- I have some homework to finish.
- Okay.
863
00:42:52,727 --> 00:42:55,440
Then I'll leave you
this last little trick.
864
00:42:56,388 --> 00:42:58,579
You bought a copy? I
told you I'd lend you mine.
865
00:42:58,761 --> 00:43:00,952
- It is yours.
- You stole my book.
866
00:43:01,133 --> 00:43:02,279
No, borrowed it.
867
00:43:02,423 --> 00:43:04,534
That's not called a trick,
that's called a felony.
868
00:43:04,711 --> 00:43:06,744
I just wanted to put
some notes in the margins.
869
00:43:06,916 --> 00:43:07,984
What?
870
00:43:13,325 --> 00:43:16,038
- You've read this before.
- About 40 times.
871
00:43:16,238 --> 00:43:17,952
I thought you said
you didn't read much.
872
00:43:18,111 --> 00:43:19,939
What is much?
873
00:43:20,940 --> 00:43:23,324
- Goodnight, Rory.
- Goodnight, Dodger.
874
00:43:26,018 --> 00:43:27,846
- Dodger?
- Figure it out.
875
00:43:30,095 --> 00:43:31,526
Oliver Twist.
