1
00:00:01,926 --> 00:00:03,674
- Where is this place?
- Not too far.
2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:05,510
You've been
saying that for miles.
3
00:00:05,671 --> 00:00:08,021
- My feet are sore.
- When did you become older than me?
4
00:00:08,210 --> 00:00:10,799
Tell me what this new breakfast
place is, and I'll be quiet.
5
00:00:10,999 --> 00:00:14,031
It's an amazing new mystery place
I found. That's all I'm telling you.
6
00:00:14,246 --> 00:00:15,483
Is it in this town or the next?
7
00:00:15,620 --> 00:00:17,766
- We don't patronize the next town.
- Since when?
8
00:00:17,950 --> 00:00:20,255
Didn't they feed lead to our
jumping frog or something?
9
00:00:20,448 --> 00:00:22,957
Right after they stoned the
woman who won the lottery.
10
00:00:23,154 --> 00:00:24,380
See, so the boycott's legit.
11
00:00:24,527 --> 00:00:26,594
- Wait. Stop.
- Look, it's Michael Landon.
12
00:00:26,774 --> 00:00:29,443
You guys walk fast. I've been
chasing you for the past two blocks.
13
00:00:29,646 --> 00:00:30,714
We were being followed.
14
00:00:30,854 --> 00:00:32,251
I told you I wasn't
being paranoid.
15
00:00:32,394 --> 00:00:35,267
Now you'll believe me when I
say the furniture moved itself.
16
00:00:35,473 --> 00:00:37,110
- Where're you going?
- Mystery breakfast.
17
00:00:37,264 --> 00:00:39,818
- Out of town?
- Remember the definition of mystery?
18
00:00:40,011 --> 00:00:43,077
I was wondering if it's okay to
practice on your pots and pans again.
19
00:00:43,299 --> 00:00:44,855
It's not like they
have any other use.
20
00:00:45,006 --> 00:00:46,164
I've almost nailed Ramble On.
21
00:00:46,254 --> 00:00:49,082
I have to stop hitting my face
with the sticks when I pull back.
22
00:00:49,293 --> 00:00:50,650
John Bonham had
that same problem.
23
00:00:50,791 --> 00:00:53,141
- Key is in the turtle.
- Enjoy your mystery breakfast.
24
00:00:53,330 --> 00:00:54,601
Come on. It's not much farther.
25
00:00:54,745 --> 00:00:57,891
We're not heading toward
any businesses of any kind.
26
00:00:58,449 --> 00:00:59,517
What?
27
00:00:59,657 --> 00:01:01,724
- We have arrived.
- Arrived where?
28
00:01:01,904 --> 00:01:03,699
You are without shame.
29
00:01:05,110 --> 00:01:06,824
Sookie, you do
not have to do this.
30
00:01:06,983 --> 00:01:10,684
What do you mean? Feeding my girls,
making them happy. I love doing this.
31
00:01:10,937 --> 00:01:12,685
Yeah, so feel the
love and pass the salt.
32
00:01:12,852 --> 00:01:15,487
- It makes me feel guilty.
- Eating can help drown that.
33
00:01:15,682 --> 00:01:17,635
Yeah, eat. I'm gonna eat.
34
00:01:18,595 --> 00:01:20,344
Can the help sit
at the table, too?
35
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:23,179
As long as they don't sing
folk songs or tell bawdy stories.
36
00:01:23,382 --> 00:01:25,256
What's with Narcoleptic
Nate over there?
37
00:01:25,422 --> 00:01:26,569
[Moaning]
38
00:01:26,712 --> 00:01:29,062
He's not much of
a morning person.
39
00:01:29,834 --> 00:01:32,503
Now say, "I can't believe
I ate the whole thing."
40
00:01:32,705 --> 00:01:35,499
It takes him about an
hour to become Jackson.
41
00:01:35,702 --> 00:01:38,052
- Hey, I had a good idea for the wedding.
- Cool.
42
00:01:38,242 --> 00:01:41,228
Instead of wrapped Jordan
almonds things at every place setting...
43
00:01:41,447 --> 00:01:43,797
- what if we wrap up a few Aspirin?
- Aspirin?
44
00:01:43,985 --> 00:01:46,018
For the morning-after hangovers.
45
00:01:46,192 --> 00:01:49,019
- That's funny.
- 'Cause Jordan almonds are so done.
46
00:01:49,231 --> 00:01:52,217
Jackson, what do you
think? Aspirin over almonds?
47
00:01:52,435 --> 00:01:53,468
[Jackson groaning]
48
00:01:53,601 --> 00:01:55,315
- Can we take that as a yes?
- No.
49
00:01:55,474 --> 00:01:58,858
Everything eventually registers. He'll
chime in on this in a couple of days.
50
00:01:59,095 --> 00:02:00,128
- Days?
- Days.
51
00:02:00,260 --> 00:02:03,530
Hey, is Jackson in the
house? Let me hear you say...
52
00:02:03,757 --> 00:02:05,710
- A new toy.
- Shameless.
53
00:03:02,279 --> 00:03:04,551
- How's it going?
- I hate these books. Hate them.
54
00:03:04,735 --> 00:03:05,733
No.
55
00:03:05,859 --> 00:03:08,528
See that? They're trying to
escape. They hate me, too.
56
00:03:08,731 --> 00:03:09,958
Your books don't hate you.
57
00:03:10,104 --> 00:03:12,773
Rory, my brain is full.
It has reached capacity.
58
00:03:12,977 --> 00:03:14,691
It's Shea Stadium
when the Beatles played.
59
00:03:14,850 --> 00:03:17,915
It's cramped, girls are screaming,
and George is fighting with Ringo.
60
00:03:18,138 --> 00:03:21,170
- You have a very active head.
- I cannot ingest any more information.
61
00:03:21,384 --> 00:03:22,781
- Take a break.
- I don't have time.
62
00:03:22,883 --> 00:03:24,201
Close your eyes,
clear your head.
63
00:03:24,339 --> 00:03:25,974
Clearing my head
just means that...
64
00:03:26,130 --> 00:03:29,400
all the knowledge I have painstakingly
stuffed in there will leak out.
65
00:03:29,625 --> 00:03:33,088
In order to make room for stuff, I
lose stuff. It's a very vicious circle.
66
00:03:33,330 --> 00:03:34,647
I'll make some coffee.
67
00:03:34,787 --> 00:03:36,694
- I hate finals.
- Nobody likes finals.
68
00:03:36,869 --> 00:03:39,696
Thank God I'm graduating and
it's the last time I cram like this.
69
00:03:39,906 --> 00:03:41,701
My pursuit of higher
education has led me...
70
00:03:41,863 --> 00:03:44,452
to an interesting discovery
about myself. You wanna hear it?
71
00:03:44,652 --> 00:03:47,116
- Sure.
- I despise academics.
72
00:03:47,315 --> 00:03:50,858
Learning, knowledge, it's all worthless.
I have no idea what you see in it.
73
00:03:51,104 --> 00:03:52,102
Learning is fun.
74
00:03:52,227 --> 00:03:55,100
Plus, for me, there's that I'm a
minor, so it's mandatory thing.
75
00:03:55,307 --> 00:03:57,976
That's what kills me. This is
self-inflicted. I'm a masochist.
76
00:03:58,179 --> 00:04:01,802
I might as well be carrying a switch
and periodically lacerating myself with it.
77
00:04:02,050 --> 00:04:05,196
That diploma hanging on the wall
is going to make this all worthwhile.
78
00:04:05,421 --> 00:04:09,327
I guess. Unless I turn into John
Nash and start drooling on people.
79
00:04:10,291 --> 00:04:12,846
- You're graduating.
- I know.
80
00:04:13,039 --> 00:04:16,184
No, you're graduating.
There's gonna be a ceremony.
81
00:04:17,201 --> 00:04:18,950
I don't know. It's a
community college.
82
00:04:19,116 --> 00:04:20,514
Community colleges
have ceremonies.
83
00:04:20,656 --> 00:04:24,119
My college doesn't even have a lawn.
They won't necessarily have a ceremony.
84
00:04:24,361 --> 00:04:26,427
- They must. Did you ask?
- No.
85
00:04:26,941 --> 00:04:31,369
Well, now that you mention it, I
think someone said something about...
86
00:04:31,645 --> 00:04:34,279
some cheesy ceremony
for my business class.
87
00:04:34,475 --> 00:04:37,268
- When is it?
- I don't know. Next Thursday.
88
00:04:37,472 --> 00:04:39,697
- That's great. You have to do it.
- I don't know.
89
00:04:39,886 --> 00:04:41,282
- You have to do it.
- Really?
90
00:04:41,426 --> 00:04:44,173
Yes. You've never been a part
of an actual graduation ceremony.
91
00:04:44,382 --> 00:04:46,607
I know. That's because my
conservative high school...
92
00:04:46,796 --> 00:04:49,703
wouldn't let me be in the ceremony
and nurse you at the same time.
93
00:04:49,917 --> 00:04:51,712
- Don't be gross.
- You think I should do it?
94
00:04:51,873 --> 00:04:54,667
- You've worked hard. You've earned it.
- I guess.
95
00:04:54,870 --> 00:04:58,379
Come on. You know that deep
down you really want to do this.
96
00:04:58,617 --> 00:05:01,047
I'll admit I've always wanted
to wear one of those gowns.
97
00:05:01,238 --> 00:05:02,236
And the hat?
98
00:05:02,363 --> 00:05:04,430
For the tassel. You
know my thing for fringe.
99
00:05:04,610 --> 00:05:08,437
They call out your name, and
people clap, and you get your diploma.
100
00:05:08,689 --> 00:05:12,073
Then you do that thing where you
move the tassel from one side to the other.
101
00:05:12,311 --> 00:05:13,503
Very symbolic, very dramatic.
102
00:05:13,643 --> 00:05:15,630
- That's it. You're doing it.
- If you insist.
103
00:05:15,807 --> 00:05:17,952
- Who do you want to invite?
- I don't know. You.
104
00:05:18,138 --> 00:05:19,728
- And?
- That's cool with me.
105
00:05:19,886 --> 00:05:21,873
- Sookie and Jackson?
- That would be fun.
106
00:05:22,051 --> 00:05:24,606
- And Grandma and Grandpa?
- Oh, no.
107
00:05:24,797 --> 00:05:27,261
Come on. It's your graduation.
They should be there.
108
00:05:27,462 --> 00:05:30,289
- Forget it. They won't want to be there.
- Of course they will.
109
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:33,531
Rory, I was supposed to graduate
from high school, go to Vassar...
110
00:05:33,747 --> 00:05:37,891
marry a Yale man, get myself a
proper nickname like Babe or Bunny.
111
00:05:38,159 --> 00:05:40,986
Instead, I got pregnant. I
didn't finish high school...
112
00:05:41,197 --> 00:05:43,831
I didn't marry your father,
and I ended up in a career...
113
00:05:44,028 --> 00:05:46,662
that apparently Jessica Hahn
would think was beneath her.
114
00:05:46,858 --> 00:05:47,971
I humiliated them.
115
00:05:48,107 --> 00:05:51,491
The two proudest people in
the world, and I humiliated them.
116
00:05:51,728 --> 00:05:54,714
I spoiled their plans. I
took their fine upbringing...
117
00:05:54,933 --> 00:05:58,237
in a world of comfort and
opportunity, and I threw it in their faces.
118
00:05:58,470 --> 00:06:01,582
I broke their hearts, and
they'll never forgive me.
119
00:06:01,801 --> 00:06:03,946
I guess I can't expect them to.
120
00:06:04,132 --> 00:06:07,164
Maybe you're wrong about how
they feel. It was a long time ago.
121
00:06:07,378 --> 00:06:11,886
Rory, I don't want them to
go. It'll just hurt them, and me.
122
00:06:12,456 --> 00:06:14,170
- Okay?
- Okay.
123
00:06:15,953 --> 00:06:18,780
- You should get back to your studying.
- Fine.
124
00:06:19,699 --> 00:06:20,925
- Great.
- What?
125
00:06:21,072 --> 00:06:24,024
I've already forgotten everything
I read in the last two hours.
126
00:06:24,236 --> 00:06:25,667
- No, you haven't.
- Yes, I have.
127
00:06:25,817 --> 00:06:28,691
In fact, I may have forgotten
everything I've ever known.
128
00:06:28,897 --> 00:06:31,202
- Child, what be your name?
- Study.
129
00:06:34,641 --> 00:06:36,518
LORELAI: Just explain
the concept one more time.
130
00:06:36,597 --> 00:06:38,194
DEAN: And be mocked
again? No, thank you.
131
00:06:38,346 --> 00:06:40,094
- Come on.
- Maybe we're missing something.
132
00:06:40,261 --> 00:06:42,134
You go to a special
shooting range.
133
00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:43,810
- A skeet shooting range.
- Right.
134
00:06:43,965 --> 00:06:46,679
There's two of you, and the
guy with the gun yells, "Pull."
135
00:06:46,878 --> 00:06:49,990
The other guy releases a clay
pigeon from a machine into the air...
136
00:06:50,209 --> 00:06:51,435
and you try to shoot it.
137
00:06:51,582 --> 00:06:53,932
- No, I don't think we're missing anything.
- I knew it.
138
00:06:54,122 --> 00:06:55,632
- You shoot pigeons?
- Clay pigeons.
139
00:06:55,786 --> 00:06:58,136
- When you hit them, does blood come out?
- They're clay.
140
00:06:58,325 --> 00:06:59,721
And why do you like to do this?
141
00:06:59,865 --> 00:07:03,487
My dad shot skeet when he was my age,
and he wants to pass the tradition down.
142
00:07:03,736 --> 00:07:05,564
What if you accidentally
hit a real pigeon?
143
00:07:05,734 --> 00:07:07,562
- Does that count?
- That's never happened.
144
00:07:07,732 --> 00:07:10,366
What if a clay pigeon hits a
real pigeon? Does that count?
145
00:07:10,562 --> 00:07:11,833
I've only done this once.
146
00:07:11,977 --> 00:07:13,204
If you get really good...
147
00:07:13,351 --> 00:07:16,337
do you move on to other animals,
like clay chickens and clay sheep?
148
00:07:16,556 --> 00:07:18,463
We didn't go skeet
shooting. I made it all up.
149
00:07:18,638 --> 00:07:20,227
I got to go in here.
150
00:07:20,386 --> 00:07:22,577
- What do you need?
- Just general stuff.
151
00:07:22,758 --> 00:07:25,870
- You guys go and be in love.
- See you back at the house.
152
00:07:26,088 --> 00:07:28,723
What if you shoot the person
who throws the pigeon in the air?
153
00:07:28,919 --> 00:07:29,986
Would that count?
154
00:07:36,494 --> 00:07:37,492
Sorry.
155
00:07:37,618 --> 00:07:40,206
No, I should have
signaled or honked. My fault.
156
00:07:40,406 --> 00:07:41,802
- Okay.
- Well.
157
00:07:42,654 --> 00:07:45,005
I guess it was inevitable,
us running into each other.
158
00:07:45,193 --> 00:07:47,465
- It's a very tiny community.
- I guess so.
159
00:07:48,564 --> 00:07:50,994
- How's the diner?
- It's still there.
160
00:07:51,354 --> 00:07:55,101
Yes. I knew that. I'm able
to empirically, with my eyes...
161
00:07:57,929 --> 00:08:00,961
- Hey, Luke, do you think we could...
- I got to get back.
162
00:08:01,177 --> 00:08:02,846
Okay. Right.
163
00:08:03,549 --> 00:08:04,695
Right.
164
00:08:05,755 --> 00:08:07,106
I'll get it.
165
00:08:09,293 --> 00:08:10,928
- Hi, Grandma.
- Hello, Rory.
166
00:08:11,082 --> 00:08:12,797
Thanks for seeing me
on such short notice.
167
00:08:12,956 --> 00:08:15,420
I'm thrilled to see
you on no notice.
168
00:08:15,620 --> 00:08:19,163
So tell me, what's this about? You
were so mysterious on the phone.
169
00:08:19,407 --> 00:08:21,519
I wanted to talk to you
about something in person.
170
00:08:21,697 --> 00:08:23,128
Well, come in.
171
00:08:26,191 --> 00:08:27,224
Wow.
172
00:08:27,357 --> 00:08:28,992
It's an English tea service.
173
00:08:29,147 --> 00:08:31,532
One of the advantages of
our having an English maid.
174
00:08:31,728 --> 00:08:33,523
That, and the fact that
she speaks English.
175
00:08:33,684 --> 00:08:36,716
- You didn't have to do this.
- But it's teatime, and I wanted to...
176
00:08:36,931 --> 00:08:40,235
Oh, no. Beatrice, I told
you to doily-line the plates.
177
00:08:40,468 --> 00:08:42,297
You don't have to
doily-line the plates.
178
00:08:42,466 --> 00:08:44,261
- Hello.
- We're in the dining room.
179
00:08:44,922 --> 00:08:47,477
- Rory, you're already here.
- You're out of breath.
180
00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:50,338
- I ran over from the office.
- You didn't have to run.
181
00:08:50,542 --> 00:08:53,289
Your grandmother said you
had something to discuss with us.
182
00:08:53,497 --> 00:08:55,166
That certainly justifies a run.
183
00:08:55,328 --> 00:08:57,633
All right, everybody, sit.
184
00:08:59,907 --> 00:09:01,780
Pour the tea, Beatrice.
185
00:09:02,696 --> 00:09:04,808
Actually, Beatrice,
could you hold off on...
186
00:09:04,985 --> 00:09:07,494
pouring the tea for just a
minute? Thank you very much.
187
00:09:07,691 --> 00:09:11,075
Grandma, Grandpa, I would
like to propose an idea to you.
188
00:09:11,311 --> 00:09:14,184
You can go for it or
not. It's entirely up to you.
189
00:09:14,392 --> 00:09:17,424
But I would like for you to promise
me that you will not get upset.
190
00:09:17,638 --> 00:09:18,636
We won't get upset.
191
00:09:18,762 --> 00:09:21,271
- And you will try to keep an open mind.
- All right.
192
00:09:21,468 --> 00:09:24,852
And you will let me finish my
presentation completely before you respond.
193
00:09:25,089 --> 00:09:26,962
She's been hanging
around you far too much.
194
00:09:27,129 --> 00:09:30,399
Rory, we accept your
terms. Please proceed.
195
00:09:30,625 --> 00:09:31,817
Thank you.
196
00:09:31,957 --> 00:09:35,069
First, let me start by saying
that Mom doesn't know I'm here.
197
00:09:35,286 --> 00:09:39,590
She'd probably be mad if she knew
that I was, but I feel this is important.
198
00:09:39,865 --> 00:09:42,215
As you know, Mom's been
going to business school...
199
00:09:42,405 --> 00:09:44,392
at the community college
for three years now.
200
00:09:44,568 --> 00:09:45,761
I believe she's mentioned it.
201
00:09:45,901 --> 00:09:48,808
She's doing very well
and she's finishing up.
202
00:09:49,022 --> 00:09:53,008
Actually, she's graduating Thursday,
and there's going to be a ceremony.
203
00:09:53,268 --> 00:09:55,936
I think it would mean a lot
to her if you guys were there.
204
00:09:56,140 --> 00:09:58,173
It may not seem like
it would, but it's true.
205
00:09:58,346 --> 00:10:01,378
If it would mean so much to her,
why didn't she invite us herself?
206
00:10:01,593 --> 00:10:03,307
'Cause she didn't
think you'd want to go.
207
00:10:03,466 --> 00:10:05,930
And I get that, but I
think it's a mistake.
208
00:10:06,129 --> 00:10:07,481
I had a school thing once.
209
00:10:07,628 --> 00:10:10,422
I wasn't sure if Mom would
want to go, so I didn't invite her.
210
00:10:10,625 --> 00:10:13,009
It was my kindergarten
Salute To Vegetables pageant...
211
00:10:13,206 --> 00:10:15,874
and I was Broccoli and I
did a tap dance with Beets.
212
00:10:16,078 --> 00:10:19,507
And the entire number, I was
just thinking, "Mom's not here."
213
00:10:19,740 --> 00:10:22,046
And it was my fault
that she wasn't there.
214
00:10:22,237 --> 00:10:24,792
Well, it was kind of
a life lesson for me.
215
00:10:24,985 --> 00:10:27,176
Now, if the thought of
going to Mom's graduation...
216
00:10:27,358 --> 00:10:30,344
upsets you, or makes you unhappy,
or uncomfortable in any way...
217
00:10:30,562 --> 00:10:32,197
then please don't go.
218
00:10:32,353 --> 00:10:34,783
Because this is an
important night for Mom...
219
00:10:34,974 --> 00:10:38,517
and if you go, you should go
under the right circumstances.
220
00:10:41,925 --> 00:10:44,560
Those are the tickets.
It's Thursday, 7:00 p.m.
221
00:10:44,756 --> 00:10:48,299
It's indoors, so weather's not an
issue. You can use them or not.
222
00:10:48,544 --> 00:10:50,769
No hard feelings. Do
what you feel is best.
223
00:10:50,958 --> 00:10:54,659
And, if you don't mind, I
would really appreciate it...
224
00:10:54,912 --> 00:10:57,705
if you would keep this
conversation between the three of us.
225
00:10:57,908 --> 00:11:01,099
That's all I have to say. Thanks
very much for your patience.
226
00:11:01,322 --> 00:11:04,672
I believe I have time for a
scone before my bus leaves.
227
00:11:05,984 --> 00:11:07,937
Beatrice, the tea, please.
228
00:11:08,315 --> 00:11:10,382
Emily, these look delicious.
229
00:11:10,770 --> 00:11:13,042
So, Richard, how
was your day today?
230
00:11:14,225 --> 00:11:17,688
LORELAI: I am feeling so
good, sister, because it's over.
231
00:11:18,138 --> 00:11:19,251
[Lorelai sighing in relief]
232
00:11:19,387 --> 00:11:22,657
No more finals, no more studying,
no more school. The pressure's off.
233
00:11:22,883 --> 00:11:25,268
Do you know how much
pressure I felt? Do you?
234
00:11:25,463 --> 00:11:29,131
All last week, I felt like a giant man
and his brother were sitting on my chest.
235
00:11:29,376 --> 00:11:30,966
- A giant man?
- And his giant brother.
236
00:11:31,125 --> 00:11:34,032
- Did they have names?
- Clem and Clem. Same names.
237
00:11:34,246 --> 00:11:36,710
Which did not reflect well
on their mothers' imagination.
238
00:11:36,910 --> 00:11:38,546
- Mother.
- Mothers. There were two Clems.
239
00:11:38,700 --> 00:11:41,005
- 'Cause they were brothers.
- Yes, so they had mothers.
240
00:11:41,197 --> 00:11:42,867
You're drawing me
into your drunken world.
241
00:11:43,028 --> 00:11:45,254
It's not a bad place
to be, my friend.
242
00:11:45,442 --> 00:11:46,838
Tank's empty.
243
00:11:48,065 --> 00:11:50,052
- What is this?
- What?
244
00:11:50,312 --> 00:11:52,265
This life plan book thing.
245
00:11:52,435 --> 00:11:56,580
A gift for the grads from the happy
people at Hartford Community College.
246
00:11:56,848 --> 00:11:59,232
Hey, how many margaritas
is too many margaritas?
247
00:11:59,428 --> 00:12:01,653
If you can't remember
where the living room is.
248
00:12:01,843 --> 00:12:02,911
I'm still good.
249
00:12:03,049 --> 00:12:05,843
Okay, here's an
interesting question for you.
250
00:12:06,046 --> 00:12:10,588
"Have you given any thought to how
children will work into your future plans?"
251
00:12:11,457 --> 00:12:13,762
They're not gonna stand
in my way, that's for sure.
252
00:12:13,955 --> 00:12:16,987
I plan to have some, of course,
but I'm just gonna knock them out...
253
00:12:17,201 --> 00:12:19,507
and have nanny catch
them and care for them...
254
00:12:19,698 --> 00:12:21,731
make sure Mick Jagger
doesn't come near them...
255
00:12:21,905 --> 00:12:23,653
and then return them
to me when they're 21.
256
00:12:23,820 --> 00:12:25,046
What about me?
257
00:12:25,193 --> 00:12:28,702
You are my favorite eldest
child. You get to stay by my side.
258
00:12:28,939 --> 00:12:30,132
I feel so privileged.
259
00:12:30,271 --> 00:12:31,304
[Phone ringing]
260
00:12:31,436 --> 00:12:32,469
I'll get it.
261
00:12:32,602 --> 00:12:36,747
Now, if that's Mick Jagger, hang
up, and blow that whistle I gave you.
262
00:12:38,887 --> 00:12:40,522
- Hello.
- Hi.
263
00:12:41,967 --> 00:12:44,000
- Hello?
- Hi.
264
00:12:44,173 --> 00:12:45,366
Is this a bad time?
265
00:12:45,506 --> 00:12:47,617
No. Just hold on a sec.
266
00:12:49,501 --> 00:12:51,807
The music. I'll be right back.
267
00:12:57,909 --> 00:12:59,624
- Hi.
- You said that already.
268
00:12:59,782 --> 00:13:01,894
I did. You're right. Sorry.
269
00:13:02,072 --> 00:13:03,945
- So, what's up?
- Nothing.
270
00:13:04,985 --> 00:13:06,813
- What about you?
- Same.
271
00:13:07,232 --> 00:13:10,059
So, what have you been doing?
272
00:13:10,271 --> 00:13:13,417
Nothing much, just hanging
out, in the park mostly.
273
00:13:13,893 --> 00:13:16,084
- Central Park?
- Washington Square Park.
274
00:13:16,265 --> 00:13:18,899
It's cooler. It's where
David Lee Roth got busted.
275
00:13:19,095 --> 00:13:21,320
Right. I hope he's
got it together now.
276
00:13:21,509 --> 00:13:23,416
Sounds like you got
a party going on there.
277
00:13:23,591 --> 00:13:26,021
- No, it's just me and my mom.
- Right.
278
00:13:27,545 --> 00:13:30,497
Okay, well, I'm gonna
go. This is long distance.
279
00:13:30,708 --> 00:13:32,980
Yeah, it is long distance.
280
00:13:34,038 --> 00:13:36,105
So, see you.
281
00:13:36,535 --> 00:13:38,442
Yeah. See you.
282
00:13:48,772 --> 00:13:50,805
[Lorelai groaning softly]
283
00:13:50,979 --> 00:13:52,535
Mom? What's wrong?
284
00:13:52,685 --> 00:13:53,957
I'm experiencing frustration.
285
00:13:54,100 --> 00:13:57,563
At the general state of things in
the world or something in particular?
286
00:13:57,805 --> 00:13:59,361
What do you wear
to a graduation?
287
00:13:59,511 --> 00:14:01,306
- A cap and gown.
- I mean underneath.
288
00:14:01,467 --> 00:14:03,182
Whatever you want.
The gown will cover it.
289
00:14:03,341 --> 00:14:05,214
It's complicated. I don't
want to overdress...
290
00:14:05,380 --> 00:14:07,254
so I'm sweating if it's
hot in the auditorium.
291
00:14:07,420 --> 00:14:09,850
But if I don't have enough
on and it's cold, I'll freeze.
292
00:14:10,042 --> 00:14:12,187
It is complicated,
especially if you over think it.
293
00:14:12,373 --> 00:14:13,371
I need a helpful comment.
294
00:14:13,497 --> 00:14:16,370
Take light layers. Wear your
turquoise-and-tan dress you just got.
295
00:14:16,578 --> 00:14:18,803
It's cool and it will look
good without your gown on.
296
00:14:18,992 --> 00:14:22,262
Wear your turquoise sweater over
it. It will look great with the dress...
297
00:14:22,487 --> 00:14:24,793
and it'll keep you warm if
it's cold in the auditorium.
298
00:14:24,985 --> 00:14:27,211
- You are a fashion genius.
- You taught me everything.
299
00:14:27,399 --> 00:14:29,784
- My brain's not working.
- You're excited. It's a big day.
300
00:14:29,980 --> 00:14:31,138
What time will you get there?
301
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:33,825
I have newspaper stuff after
school. But no later than 6:00.
302
00:14:34,017 --> 00:14:36,129
- We'll go out to eat after?
- Anyplace. It's on me.
303
00:14:36,306 --> 00:14:37,344
You don't have to do that.
304
00:14:37,430 --> 00:14:39,067
You're a graduate.
You get to be pampered.
305
00:14:39,220 --> 00:14:42,445
Then I'd like to go to Chateau Jean
Georges La Jean Georges in Paris.
306
00:14:42,675 --> 00:14:45,139
I'll look it up in Daggit and
book the Concorde. I got to go.
307
00:14:45,339 --> 00:14:46,407
I got to get ready.
308
00:14:46,546 --> 00:14:50,771
Wait, I wanna see my little graduate
one more time before the big event.
309
00:14:51,208 --> 00:14:53,479
Do I look like I'm ready to
make my way in the world?
310
00:14:53,664 --> 00:14:55,181
If all else fails,
you can marry rich.
311
00:14:55,328 --> 00:14:56,918
I love that we always
have that option.
312
00:14:57,077 --> 00:14:58,303
What'll you do with your hair?
313
00:14:58,450 --> 00:14:59,807
I got the curling
iron warming up.
314
00:14:59,949 --> 00:15:02,617
Mom, the cap. You put it on,
it's gonna smoosh the curls down.
315
00:15:02,821 --> 00:15:04,888
- You are a genius.
- See you tonight.
316
00:15:05,068 --> 00:15:08,691
Try to seat us next to a celebrity on
the Concorde, like Sting or someone.
317
00:15:08,940 --> 00:15:10,132
I'll try.
318
00:15:10,397 --> 00:15:13,065
- I told her, "Look, Missy..."
- You called your adviser "Missy?"
319
00:15:13,268 --> 00:15:14,266
It was attitudinal.
320
00:15:14,392 --> 00:15:17,583
I said, "I'm not taking AP Calculus
from Henemen. I'm going with Branch."
321
00:15:17,805 --> 00:15:20,474
"Branch is a graduate of MIT,
and Henemen went to Berkeley."
322
00:15:20,677 --> 00:15:23,822
"He may have majored in Math, but
what did he minor in, bean sprouts?"
323
00:15:24,049 --> 00:15:27,353
I'm telling my adviser all this
and I look in her trash can...
324
00:15:27,586 --> 00:15:30,221
and there's this half-eaten
banana in there. Nothing else.
325
00:15:30,417 --> 00:15:34,118
I pictured her sitting in this shoebox of
an office, eating a banana by herself...
326
00:15:34,372 --> 00:15:35,723
and I almost felt sorry for her.
327
00:15:35,869 --> 00:15:38,901
Then she questioned my judgment
about Berkeley, so I eviscerated her.
328
00:15:39,116 --> 00:15:42,068
She was welling up at the end,
but she held it in until I was gone.
329
00:15:42,279 --> 00:15:45,311
I have enough faculty recommendations
to run for Student Council...
330
00:15:45,526 --> 00:15:48,194
so I don't need her
anyway. My locker's this way.
331
00:15:55,391 --> 00:15:56,901
- Are they closed?
- They're closed.
332
00:15:57,056 --> 00:15:58,452
- Are you sure?
- I'm sure.
333
00:15:58,596 --> 00:16:02,105
Okay, one second, and open.
334
00:16:03,175 --> 00:16:05,320
You made me a tassel-hat cake.
335
00:16:05,505 --> 00:16:08,775
Filled with two pounds of crushed
chocolate-covered espresso beans.
336
00:16:09,002 --> 00:16:10,558
- You're evil.
- And you're graduating.
337
00:16:10,708 --> 00:16:12,741
- Yes, I am, aren't I?
- Here.
338
00:16:12,998 --> 00:16:16,063
I brought the pictures you wanted
to see of my high school graduation.
339
00:16:16,286 --> 00:16:17,319
Hand them over, lady.
340
00:16:17,452 --> 00:16:19,723
- Okay, but don't laugh.
- I promise.
341
00:16:19,906 --> 00:16:22,291
I was younger
then, not as refined.
342
00:16:22,487 --> 00:16:24,394
- You're stoned.
- Totally.
343
00:16:24,569 --> 00:16:26,794
- I thought you hated that.
- It was peer pressure.
344
00:16:26,983 --> 00:16:30,015
If Gilbert Garcia offered you
a toke, you took it or took off.
345
00:16:30,229 --> 00:16:31,864
Gilbert had a snappy slogan.
346
00:16:32,020 --> 00:16:33,689
I was nauseous all day.
347
00:16:33,851 --> 00:16:34,919
Your parents?
348
00:16:35,058 --> 00:16:37,646
For the traditional, parents
flanking their graduate child.
349
00:16:37,847 --> 00:16:39,959
- Don't they look proud?
- They do. Very proud.
350
00:16:40,136 --> 00:16:41,204
What is that?
351
00:16:41,343 --> 00:16:43,534
It's pictures of Sookie's
high school graduation.
352
00:16:43,716 --> 00:16:45,510
What was your high
school graduation like?
353
00:16:45,672 --> 00:16:48,102
It was dignified, as most
French ceremonies are.
354
00:16:48,294 --> 00:16:52,121
Poetry was read, a string quartet
played, a ballerina performed.
355
00:16:52,373 --> 00:16:56,120
Drank Boone's Farm out of a bota
bag and knocked a beach ball around?
356
00:16:56,369 --> 00:16:58,402
I don't understand
half of what you say.
357
00:16:58,575 --> 00:17:00,245
That's why we work.
358
00:17:00,407 --> 00:17:01,917
[Cell phone ringing]
359
00:17:02,863 --> 00:17:04,770
- Hello.
- Hey, Lor, how you doing?
360
00:17:04,943 --> 00:17:07,328
Christopher. I'm
good. I'm excited.
361
00:17:07,524 --> 00:17:09,829
You should be. It's a big
day. Did you get my present?
362
00:17:10,021 --> 00:17:12,576
- What present?
- A basket. You should've gotten it by now.
363
00:17:12,768 --> 00:17:15,800
- Did a basket come for me?
- It came. It was heavy.
364
00:17:16,015 --> 00:17:18,922
I felt a twinge, so I
dropped it for health reasons.
365
00:17:19,137 --> 00:17:21,011
It's probably still intact.
366
00:17:21,176 --> 00:17:23,606
My cracked staff has just
informed me of its arrival.
367
00:17:23,799 --> 00:17:25,513
I'm going to find it.
368
00:17:28,502 --> 00:17:29,535
Wow.
369
00:17:29,668 --> 00:17:31,496
I put it together myself.
370
00:17:31,666 --> 00:17:33,971
- And it's all for me?
- All for you.
371
00:17:37,035 --> 00:17:38,829
A $25 savings bond.
372
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:40,188
That's a long-term investment.
373
00:17:40,323 --> 00:17:42,707
Don't touch it for 30
years, you're looking at $45.
374
00:17:42,904 --> 00:17:44,811
- A youth hostel card.
- For the young girl...
375
00:17:44,985 --> 00:17:47,130
who doesn't mind sharing
a bathroom with strangers.
376
00:17:47,316 --> 00:17:50,268
"What Color ls Your Parachute?
A practical manual for job hunters."
377
00:17:50,479 --> 00:17:53,431
Helping you answer: what you
wanna do and where you wanna do it.
378
00:17:53,643 --> 00:17:56,516
A DVD of The Graduate. Got to
have that. The Portable Nietzsche.
379
00:17:56,723 --> 00:17:57,721
Light, cheery reading.
380
00:17:57,846 --> 00:18:00,481
An application to
join the armed forces.
381
00:18:00,677 --> 00:18:03,584
If your dreams don't pan
out, it's a viable option.
382
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:06,513
And something in a
nice little velvet box.
383
00:18:08,336 --> 00:18:11,288
A necklace. The
pearl almost looks real.
384
00:18:11,499 --> 00:18:13,805
It better look very
real, because it is.
385
00:18:14,372 --> 00:18:16,483
- That's not funny.
- This is not a funny gift.
386
00:18:16,660 --> 00:18:20,611
Christopher, this is extremely
not funny. This is totally humorless.
387
00:18:20,864 --> 00:18:22,499
It's beautiful.
388
00:18:22,654 --> 00:18:24,005
I think you're awesome, Lor.
389
00:18:24,153 --> 00:18:26,866
With everything you do, and
raising Rory the way you did...
390
00:18:27,067 --> 00:18:28,656
you're superwoman.
391
00:18:28,814 --> 00:18:29,882
Have a great day.
392
00:18:30,022 --> 00:18:32,213
Wish I could be there.
Take lots of pictures for me.
393
00:18:32,394 --> 00:18:34,188
The camera. I forgot the camera.
394
00:18:34,351 --> 00:18:36,020
Look in the basket.
395
00:18:37,764 --> 00:18:39,160
You thought of everything.
396
00:18:39,304 --> 00:18:40,893
- Have a great night.
- Thanks.
397
00:18:41,177 --> 00:18:43,210
You, too. Bye.
398
00:19:05,610 --> 00:19:07,041
Could you...
399
00:19:08,481 --> 00:19:10,706
Excuse me. Sir, do you know...
400
00:19:11,353 --> 00:19:14,067
Excuse me. Do you
know where Washington...
401
00:19:14,267 --> 00:19:16,300
Excuse me, ma'am.
Washington Square Park?
402
00:19:16,473 --> 00:19:18,426
- End of Fifth.
- Thank you.
403
00:19:21,010 --> 00:19:22,963
Excuse me. Where's Fifth?
404
00:19:31,208 --> 00:19:32,275
Hi.
405
00:19:34,996 --> 00:19:36,427
How you doing?
406
00:19:36,578 --> 00:19:39,405
- Good. How about you?
- Good.
407
00:19:41,822 --> 00:19:43,570
- You hungry?
- Starved.
408
00:19:44,152 --> 00:19:45,662
I know a place.
409
00:19:53,809 --> 00:19:55,717
I feel very urban today.
410
00:19:55,890 --> 00:19:58,116
Yeah, the plaid
just screams urban.
411
00:19:58,304 --> 00:20:01,131
- I think I look like a native.
- How well do you know Manhattan?
412
00:20:01,343 --> 00:20:03,614
I've been here a few times.
We saw the Bangles here.
413
00:20:03,799 --> 00:20:05,025
When was that, 20 years ago?
414
00:20:05,172 --> 00:20:07,681
- It was a reunion, and they were great.
- They're okay.
415
00:20:07,878 --> 00:20:09,785
A couple of years ago,
Mom drove us in to shop.
416
00:20:09,959 --> 00:20:13,661
She couldn't find a good parking place,
and all of the lots were total rip-offs.
417
00:20:13,913 --> 00:20:16,059
So she kept making
u-turns and cutting off taxis...
418
00:20:16,245 --> 00:20:18,913
and we were being screamed at
in so many different languages...
419
00:20:19,117 --> 00:20:20,911
that we just turned
around and drove home...
420
00:20:21,073 --> 00:20:23,378
and bought a Hummel at
the curio shop in Stars Hollow.
421
00:20:23,570 --> 00:20:24,682
Very adventurous.
422
00:20:24,819 --> 00:20:27,124
I'm just saying I'm no
stranger to the Big Apple.
423
00:20:27,316 --> 00:20:29,383
You are if you're
calling it the Big Apple.
424
00:20:29,563 --> 00:20:32,198
So I don't have the lingo
down yet, but I have the attitude.
425
00:20:32,394 --> 00:20:33,586
- You do?
- Yeah.
426
00:20:33,726 --> 00:20:35,838
When I was getting a
locker for my backpack...
427
00:20:36,015 --> 00:20:39,161
at the bus stop there was this guy
just standing there staring at me.
428
00:20:39,387 --> 00:20:42,975
And instead of ignoring him, I
fixed him with a really withering stare.
429
00:20:43,216 --> 00:20:44,965
- That I've got to see.
- No.
430
00:20:45,131 --> 00:20:47,242
Come on. Let me see
your withering stare.
431
00:20:47,420 --> 00:20:49,089
It's dangerous.
I could hurt you.
432
00:20:49,251 --> 00:20:51,284
- I've been hurt before.
- No.
433
00:20:52,290 --> 00:20:53,880
I'm disappointed.
434
00:20:55,703 --> 00:20:59,052
- So, your arm's okay?
- Yeah. It looks worse than it is.
435
00:21:00,115 --> 00:21:02,465
I like this Emily chick.
A friend of yours?
436
00:21:02,654 --> 00:21:05,322
She's a friend to all
of us dispossessed.
437
00:21:05,526 --> 00:21:08,319
- So here's our lunch place.
- A hot-dog stand?
438
00:21:08,523 --> 00:21:10,794
I eat here everyday.
It's nothing fancy, but...
439
00:21:10,979 --> 00:21:13,204
- No, I love it. It's perfect.
- Good.
440
00:21:13,393 --> 00:21:16,504
- One with everything on it.
- Make that two, please.
441
00:21:16,723 --> 00:21:19,073
So, how's...
442
00:21:20,136 --> 00:21:21,806
- Luke?
- Yeah.
443
00:21:22,259 --> 00:21:23,326
Okay.
444
00:21:23,965 --> 00:21:25,760
- He went fishing.
- Fishing?
445
00:21:25,921 --> 00:21:27,794
Yeah. He didn't
catch anything though.
446
00:21:27,961 --> 00:21:29,868
- He probably used the wrong bait.
- Yeah.
447
00:21:30,043 --> 00:21:32,631
That's a common fishing blunder.
448
00:21:34,455 --> 00:21:35,931
So he's good?
449
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,026
Yeah, he's good.
450
00:21:38,742 --> 00:21:41,411
I can tell him hello
for you if you want.
451
00:21:41,614 --> 00:21:42,841
Whatever.
452
00:21:44,611 --> 00:21:45,882
RORY: Thank you.
453
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,989
- My God. This is really good.
- I'm glad you like it.
454
00:21:53,809 --> 00:21:55,955
- So, how much time you got?
- I got a bit.
455
00:21:56,140 --> 00:21:57,969
There's a record store
you should check out.
456
00:21:58,138 --> 00:22:00,807
It's run by this insane freak
who's a walking encyclopedia...
457
00:22:01,010 --> 00:22:03,962
for every punk and garage
band record ever made.
458
00:22:04,173 --> 00:22:07,397
Catalog numbers. He's crazy.
The place is right out of High Fidelity.
459
00:22:07,628 --> 00:22:09,184
- Let's go.
- Okay.
460
00:22:10,375 --> 00:22:11,885
Where you going?
461
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,073
- Subway.
- I thought we were gonna walk.
462
00:22:14,246 --> 00:22:16,915
It's 15 blocks. Come
on, I think you'll like it.
463
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:21,104
- Do they allow hot dogs in the subway?
- You are so an out-of-towner.
464
00:22:41,010 --> 00:22:43,077
Excuse me. Hi. I'm
one of the graduates.
465
00:22:43,258 --> 00:22:45,131
Wow. You're hours early.
466
00:22:46,005 --> 00:22:47,912
I just wanted to beat traffic...
467
00:22:48,086 --> 00:22:50,641
and have time to get ready
and relax and also I've heard...
468
00:22:50,834 --> 00:22:54,024
the early bird gets the unwrinkled
gowns without the mysterious stains.
469
00:22:54,247 --> 00:22:57,278
- This is true. Take your pick.
- Thank you.
470
00:22:59,117 --> 00:23:00,751
[Sighing happily]
471
00:23:01,239 --> 00:23:04,305
This is so exciting.
Isn't this exciting?
472
00:23:04,528 --> 00:23:06,481
This is my eighth
year of doing this.
473
00:23:06,650 --> 00:23:09,001
So not so exciting
for you. Got it.
474
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,144
You're being so cryptic. Do
you need a power source or not?
475
00:23:31,375 --> 00:23:35,201
My batteries are all fully charged. It
just depends on how fast they deplete.
476
00:23:35,453 --> 00:23:38,088
- So we need one just in case.
- Mom.
477
00:23:38,784 --> 00:23:42,371
Lorelai, it's hours before the
ceremony. What are you doing here?
478
00:23:42,613 --> 00:23:45,679
I'm sorry, what are you doing here?
How do you even know about this?
479
00:23:45,901 --> 00:23:48,456
I shouldn't know about this? A
mother can't know about this?
480
00:23:48,648 --> 00:23:50,476
- No, I just mean...
- You're graduating.
481
00:23:50,645 --> 00:23:52,917
- I know.
- So we're here to see you graduate.
482
00:23:53,101 --> 00:23:54,498
This is Raul.
483
00:23:55,183 --> 00:23:57,250
So you and Raul are just
here to see me graduate.
484
00:23:57,431 --> 00:23:59,702
Don't be silly. Your father
will be joining me later.
485
00:23:59,887 --> 00:24:02,714
- My father?
- Yes. Remember him? Tall, bow tie.
486
00:24:02,924 --> 00:24:06,592
I remember Dad, Mom.
I just... Rory told you.
487
00:24:06,837 --> 00:24:09,631
Yes. That's okay, isn't
it? It's a little late if it's not.
488
00:24:09,834 --> 00:24:13,343
No, it's perfectly fine that you're
here. Absolutely. I'm just surprised.
489
00:24:13,581 --> 00:24:15,090
- Who are you?
- I'm Raul.
490
00:24:15,245 --> 00:24:18,152
- I just told you that.
- Did Rory invite Raul, too?
491
00:24:18,367 --> 00:24:20,081
Raul is my cameraman.
492
00:24:21,281 --> 00:24:22,552
Cameraman?
493
00:24:22,696 --> 00:24:25,842
He'll be filming the ceremony
for us. He's very talented.
494
00:24:26,067 --> 00:24:30,291
He screened an independent film of
his as an audition. Welcome to Scabland.
495
00:24:30,563 --> 00:24:32,868
It was disgusting, but
beautifully photographed.
496
00:24:33,060 --> 00:24:35,615
- It was supposed to be disgusting.
- I'm sure it was.
497
00:24:35,807 --> 00:24:37,283
Mom, all this stuff.
498
00:24:37,431 --> 00:24:40,224
Excuse me. All of this
equipment, it can't be here.
499
00:24:40,428 --> 00:24:43,652
We won't leave all of this equipment
here for everybody to trip over.
500
00:24:43,882 --> 00:24:44,994
We are not cretins.
501
00:24:45,131 --> 00:24:47,277
She's handling it. Right,
Mom, you are handling it?
502
00:24:47,461 --> 00:24:50,130
- This lighting sucks.
- Can we do something about the lighting?
503
00:24:50,333 --> 00:24:52,207
I don't think so,
ma'am. I don't know.
504
00:24:52,373 --> 00:24:55,359
It's a community college, we'll
have to cope. Think documentary.
505
00:24:55,579 --> 00:24:58,406
Mom, please. People will
be showing up here soon.
506
00:24:58,617 --> 00:25:01,364
Lorelai, I'm perfectly
capable of handling this.
507
00:25:01,573 --> 00:25:03,684
No one will be inconvenienced.
508
00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:07,668
Okay. I'm just gonna let
everyone deal with all of this...
509
00:25:07,899 --> 00:25:10,487
because I need to relax
and get a cup of coffee...
510
00:25:10,688 --> 00:25:12,833
and maybe hammer
a nail into my head.
511
00:25:13,018 --> 00:25:16,606
You're not needed here,
Lorelai. Go get your coffee. Relax.
512
00:25:18,138 --> 00:25:20,692
You're going to redo your
makeup later, aren't you?
513
00:25:20,885 --> 00:25:22,679
Maybe an Irish coffee.
514
00:25:28,086 --> 00:25:29,835
I haven't even heard
of half these bands.
515
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,543
I love that about this place.
Lane would want to live here.
516
00:25:35,829 --> 00:25:37,225
Who's Slint?
517
00:25:37,951 --> 00:25:40,540
- I don't know.
- Grunge band out of Kentucky.
518
00:25:40,739 --> 00:25:44,487
Two albums plus a double "A"
side single. Disbanded in '94.
519
00:25:45,111 --> 00:25:46,303
Thanks.
520
00:25:51,104 --> 00:25:52,899
- My God.
- What?
521
00:25:53,310 --> 00:25:55,343
- Look.
- The Go-Go's.
522
00:25:55,766 --> 00:25:58,400
- You must have that one.
- No. For my mom.
523
00:25:58,596 --> 00:26:01,231
This was her favorite
group when she was my age.
524
00:26:01,426 --> 00:26:02,744
It's signed by Belinda.
525
00:26:02,883 --> 00:26:05,029
This would be the
perfect graduation present.
526
00:26:05,214 --> 00:26:08,088
I've been looking all week
long, and I couldn't find anything.
527
00:26:08,294 --> 00:26:10,201
- Now I have Belinda.
- Graduation?
528
00:26:10,376 --> 00:26:12,170
From college. From
business classes.
529
00:26:12,332 --> 00:26:14,080
I'm surprised she
has time for anything...
530
00:26:14,246 --> 00:26:16,959
except lighting darts on fire
and throwing them at my picture.
531
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,147
It's not a lot of time, but...
532
00:26:19,325 --> 00:26:23,026
- Go on. Get it. She'll like it.
- Thank you so much for bringing me here.
533
00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:25,073
- This was fate.
- I think it was.
534
00:26:25,235 --> 00:26:27,903
And in return, I just might
show you my withering stare.
535
00:26:28,107 --> 00:26:29,663
I'm a lucky man.
536
00:26:37,473 --> 00:26:40,380
- I think this one's mine.
- Yep. The sign says "Booneville."
537
00:26:40,594 --> 00:26:44,023
Excuse me. I'm so sorry to
bother you. Which way is 44th?
538
00:26:44,257 --> 00:26:46,323
- That way.
- Great. Thanks.
539
00:26:47,212 --> 00:26:49,006
- I got asked directions.
- I saw.
540
00:26:49,169 --> 00:26:51,394
He took me for a
native. That's so cool.
541
00:26:51,583 --> 00:26:54,456
That's very impressive.
44th is the other way.
542
00:26:54,662 --> 00:26:55,855
- No.
- It's all right.
543
00:26:55,995 --> 00:26:57,629
Man, I should go find him.
544
00:26:57,784 --> 00:27:00,453
He'll figure it out when he sees
the numbers getting smaller.
545
00:27:00,656 --> 00:27:02,452
He still thought I was
a native. That's cool.
546
00:27:02,613 --> 00:27:03,840
I'm your witness.
547
00:27:03,986 --> 00:27:05,939
- Well, I should go.
- Okay.
548
00:27:07,191 --> 00:27:08,939
I got to go to my
mom's graduation.
549
00:27:09,106 --> 00:27:11,899
- And give her Belinda.
- And give her Belinda.
550
00:27:12,352 --> 00:27:14,259
Go on. I'll check on the guy.
551
00:27:14,434 --> 00:27:17,863
I'll make sure he's not
wandering around looking for 44th.
552
00:27:25,672 --> 00:27:27,466
Why did you come here?
553
00:27:29,376 --> 00:27:31,885
- What?
- I said, why did you come here?
554
00:27:32,582 --> 00:27:36,647
You ditched school and everything.
That's so not you. Why'd you do it?
555
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:40,892
Because you didn't say goodbye.
556
00:27:45,860 --> 00:27:47,177
Goodbye, Rory.
557
00:27:47,732 --> 00:27:49,049
Bye, Jess.
558
00:28:03,133 --> 00:28:07,277
- Great. I'm Woody Allen in Annie Hall.
- You thought ahead. Smart.
559
00:28:07,753 --> 00:28:09,468
The mirror. Yeah.
560
00:28:09,626 --> 00:28:11,738
I never leave home
without all the essentials:
561
00:28:11,916 --> 00:28:14,380
mirror, makeup, picture
of Shaun Cassidy.
562
00:28:14,579 --> 00:28:17,134
- I'm done. Do you want to use it?
- Thanks.
563
00:28:18,784 --> 00:28:20,816
- Don't I look charming?
- You look great.
564
00:28:20,989 --> 00:28:24,179
I looked better. I had to run
here straight from work. Kinko's.
565
00:28:24,402 --> 00:28:25,878
Hey, Liza. That
gets me thinking.
566
00:28:26,026 --> 00:28:29,058
Maybe you and I ought to do a
little reproducing after the ceremony.
567
00:28:29,272 --> 00:28:30,668
- Clever.
- Don't be a snot.
568
00:28:30,813 --> 00:28:31,926
Shut up.
569
00:28:32,353 --> 00:28:34,464
- That's my boyfriend, Zach.
- Sure.
570
00:28:34,642 --> 00:28:37,515
We're breaking up 'cause we're
transferring to different schools.
571
00:28:37,722 --> 00:28:39,709
He's going to Florida
State. I'm going to UMass.
572
00:28:39,886 --> 00:28:41,601
Although I'm gonna
miss this place.
573
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,751
I'm not. This place
stunk. It's bush-league.
574
00:28:43,762 --> 00:28:44,633
Why'd you go here?
575
00:28:44,839 --> 00:28:48,030
My parents, wise investors that
they are, couldn't afford anything else.
576
00:28:48,252 --> 00:28:51,557
Yeah, that 2.0 grade-point
average didn't reason into things.
577
00:28:51,791 --> 00:28:53,018
- Shut up.
- Between the lines.
578
00:28:53,164 --> 00:28:54,277
Go die.
579
00:28:55,329 --> 00:28:58,553
Sure you don't wanna give it another
go, 'cause you're darling together?
580
00:28:58,784 --> 00:29:01,168
- Thanks for the mirror.
- My pleasure.
581
00:29:02,613 --> 00:29:06,280
Hey, a bunch of us are going
to Shaky's afterwards for pizza.
582
00:29:06,525 --> 00:29:07,796
You want to come?
583
00:29:07,940 --> 00:29:10,813
I'm going out with my daughter
after, but it sounds like fun.
584
00:29:11,021 --> 00:29:14,325
You won't believe this. There's some
blue-blooded rich woman out there...
585
00:29:14,559 --> 00:29:17,783
setting up professional film
equipment like she's shooting a movie.
586
00:29:18,013 --> 00:29:20,080
- You're kidding.
- Whose mother is it?
587
00:29:20,261 --> 00:29:23,008
I don't know. Little precious
must be around here somewhere.
588
00:29:23,216 --> 00:29:26,838
- I hate people with money.
- So do I, with every fiber of my being.
589
00:29:27,087 --> 00:29:29,358
Me, too. Money people.
590
00:29:43,279 --> 00:29:45,152
- Excuse me.
- Yes?
591
00:29:45,319 --> 00:29:48,384
- Are we leaving soon?
- I have no idea.
592
00:29:48,607 --> 00:29:50,435
Should you have an idea?
593
00:29:50,605 --> 00:29:52,989
There was an accident,
closed the interstate.
594
00:29:53,185 --> 00:29:55,932
All outbound buses
were told to stand down.
595
00:29:57,056 --> 00:29:59,929
And you don't know when we're
gonna be allowed to stand up again?
596
00:30:00,136 --> 00:30:02,884
Soon, I hope. I
hate missing dinner.
597
00:30:03,716 --> 00:30:05,192
Yeah. Me, too.
598
00:30:17,035 --> 00:30:20,147
There's our little graduate.
My God, look at that gown.
599
00:30:20,365 --> 00:30:22,114
You look just like
the Statue of Liberty.
600
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,994
- All big and stony?
- No. You look amazing.
601
00:30:25,193 --> 00:30:26,340
You look very GQ.
602
00:30:26,484 --> 00:30:28,834
Thanks to my best new
friend Ermenegildo Zegna.
603
00:30:29,022 --> 00:30:30,851
Don't you love how he
can pronounce it now?
604
00:30:31,020 --> 00:30:32,018
Very cosmopolitan.
605
00:30:32,144 --> 00:30:34,733
He got it for the rehearsal
dinner. It's his first real suit.
606
00:30:34,933 --> 00:30:36,728
And not my last. I look hot.
607
00:30:36,889 --> 00:30:38,796
You know that
Emily's out there, right?
608
00:30:39,137 --> 00:30:40,205
Why?
609
00:30:41,343 --> 00:30:43,219
- It's a long story. Just do me a favor.
- Sure.
610
00:30:43,383 --> 00:30:46,210
Keep an eye on my parents. Make
sure they don't disrupt anything.
611
00:30:46,421 --> 00:30:49,453
My mother doesn't behead anyone.
My father doesn't snore too loudly.
612
00:30:49,668 --> 00:30:52,177
- They won't do anything like that.
- Haven't you met them?
613
00:30:52,374 --> 00:30:55,201
- Why would they do that?
- They're here because Rory invited them.
614
00:30:55,411 --> 00:30:57,920
They can't say no
to that little face.
615
00:30:58,118 --> 00:31:00,627
It's like hitting a puppy
with a rolled-up newspaper.
616
00:31:00,823 --> 00:31:02,572
You guys are not
gonna believe this.
617
00:31:02,737 --> 00:31:05,803
- You're Mr. Announcement Guy today.
- You'll pipe in every time I talk?
618
00:31:06,026 --> 00:31:07,094
- Can it.
- Stuff it.
619
00:31:07,233 --> 00:31:08,351
- They're in love.
- Clearly.
620
00:31:08,398 --> 00:31:12,145
Mrs. Got Bucks out there not only has a
cameraman, she's got a sound guy, too.
621
00:31:12,394 --> 00:31:14,539
It's like a Baz Luhrmann
movie out there.
622
00:31:14,725 --> 00:31:15,918
That's Emily, right?
623
00:31:16,057 --> 00:31:18,521
- Rich people feel so entitled.
- Yes, damn them.
624
00:31:18,721 --> 00:31:20,708
I saw her wipe her
face with a $100 bill.
625
00:31:20,885 --> 00:31:23,679
We should line them up against
a wall. You know what I'm saying?
626
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:26,188
- Is Lorelai Gilmore here?
- Yes.
627
00:31:26,379 --> 00:31:29,172
Good. Have a look
at these, will you?
628
00:31:30,001 --> 00:31:32,556
- Wow. Pretty.
- Look them over and take your pick.
629
00:31:32,748 --> 00:31:33,895
- What for?
- To wear.
630
00:31:34,039 --> 00:31:36,627
- Are they for sale?
- No. They're paid for.
631
00:31:36,827 --> 00:31:38,860
These are from your
mother, Emily Gilmore.
632
00:31:39,033 --> 00:31:41,179
- Wow. Ritzy.
- I really don't want to wear a corsage.
633
00:31:41,365 --> 00:31:43,272
- They're all paid for.
- Really. It's too much.
634
00:31:43,445 --> 00:31:45,796
- Your mother wants you to pick one.
- Really, it's okay.
635
00:31:45,984 --> 00:31:47,415
She'll just come
back here herself.
636
00:31:47,566 --> 00:31:49,791
- This one, thanks.
- Good choice.
637
00:31:49,980 --> 00:31:52,966
The cameraman said
that would look best on film.
638
00:31:53,393 --> 00:31:56,425
- So you're the rich girl.
- Maybe. I'm not rich...
639
00:31:56,639 --> 00:31:59,194
but my parents have money.
But I'm totally self-sufficient.
640
00:31:59,387 --> 00:32:02,736
I take nothing from them except
this corsage and my daughter's tuition.
641
00:32:02,966 --> 00:32:04,840
So, are you gonna stone me?
642
00:32:05,006 --> 00:32:06,801
I should've guessed.
Look at her friends.
643
00:32:06,962 --> 00:32:08,518
They're wearing
suits that drip money.
644
00:32:08,669 --> 00:32:10,383
Hey, pal, this was 30% off.
645
00:32:10,542 --> 00:32:13,494
That's why you didn't want to
get pizza 'cause it's below you?
646
00:32:13,705 --> 00:32:15,977
No, Liza. Pizza is not below me.
647
00:32:16,161 --> 00:32:20,351
I love pizza. I eat tons of pizza.
It's one of my four major food groups.
648
00:32:20,614 --> 00:32:22,521
Candy, popcorn, and pizza.
649
00:32:22,696 --> 00:32:25,489
See. It's two of my food groups.
That's how much I love pizza.
650
00:32:25,693 --> 00:32:26,691
I want to believe you.
651
00:32:26,817 --> 00:32:29,485
Enjoy your champagne and
caviar at the Ritz, Your Highness.
652
00:32:29,689 --> 00:32:31,040
I am not rich.
653
00:32:31,894 --> 00:32:32,962
[Pager beeping]
654
00:32:33,102 --> 00:32:34,135
My pager.
655
00:32:34,267 --> 00:32:37,810
- Maybe this suit was a little much.
- You're a fox. Now, don't start.
656
00:32:38,055 --> 00:32:39,406
- No.
- What?
657
00:32:39,554 --> 00:32:41,302
- Rory's running late.
- Late from what?
658
00:32:41,468 --> 00:32:42,501
She doesn't say.
659
00:32:42,633 --> 00:32:46,176
She'll be here, but if she's not
here by 7:00, she'll sneak in the back.
660
00:32:46,422 --> 00:32:48,295
- That's weird.
- She'll be here. Don't worry.
661
00:32:48,460 --> 00:32:49,493
I hope so.
662
00:32:49,626 --> 00:32:52,373
We'll sit in back, keep an eye
out for her, and save her a seat.
663
00:32:52,582 --> 00:32:55,852
Can you hang on to all my stuff for
me? I don't want to leave it in here.
664
00:32:56,078 --> 00:32:57,747
- Will do.
- Thank you.
665
00:32:57,909 --> 00:32:58,942
Bye.
666
00:32:59,075 --> 00:33:01,584
You don't trust your
valuables around us poor kids?
667
00:33:01,780 --> 00:33:03,450
Knock it off, Zach.
668
00:33:14,433 --> 00:33:16,148
You don't look happy.
669
00:33:16,307 --> 00:33:18,861
- I'm late.
- These buses are the worst.
670
00:33:19,054 --> 00:33:20,644
Why are we making so many stops?
671
00:33:20,802 --> 00:33:22,994
The bus didn't make stops
on the way into the city.
672
00:33:23,175 --> 00:33:27,319
That was probably an express.
This is a local. It makes a lot of stops.
673
00:33:27,587 --> 00:33:30,572
I should have checked the
schedule. I should have checked traffic.
674
00:33:30,792 --> 00:33:33,619
Note to self: Impulsive
definitely does not work for me.
675
00:33:33,831 --> 00:33:35,500
What are you doing?
676
00:33:35,994 --> 00:33:38,742
- It's for my spit.
- Your what?
677
00:33:39,242 --> 00:33:40,593
For my smokeless.
678
00:33:44,277 --> 00:33:46,628
Victor David Fuller.
679
00:33:48,815 --> 00:33:51,450
Nancy Brenda Gatson.
680
00:33:56,224 --> 00:33:59,733
Making sure the camera's
getting your best side, princess?
681
00:34:00,803 --> 00:34:03,676
Are you telling me that that is
the best commencement speaker...
682
00:34:03,882 --> 00:34:04,915
they can scrounge up?
683
00:34:05,048 --> 00:34:06,876
I hope Raul's getting
enough shots of Lorelai.
684
00:34:07,046 --> 00:34:09,317
I don't want the whole damn
ceremony and none of her.
685
00:34:09,502 --> 00:34:12,375
I disagree. I hope he
gets every inspired word...
686
00:34:12,582 --> 00:34:16,454
articulated by the East Coast
Marketing Director of Pup 'n' Taco.
687
00:34:16,744 --> 00:34:17,742
Raul.
688
00:34:23,237 --> 00:34:24,554
Oh, jeez.
689
00:34:25,777 --> 00:34:28,161
WOMAN: John Lawrence Gilfer.
690
00:34:30,688 --> 00:34:33,276
Lorelai Victoria Gilmore.
691
00:34:59,533 --> 00:35:01,486
Hey. Mom, Dad.
692
00:35:02,155 --> 00:35:03,302
Lorelai.
693
00:35:03,446 --> 00:35:06,000
- Well, I did it.
- Yes.
694
00:35:07,524 --> 00:35:09,670
Raul thinks he got
some good footage.
695
00:35:09,856 --> 00:35:11,763
I should hope so. He
certainly cost enough.
696
00:35:11,936 --> 00:35:12,969
I'm sure it'll be great.
697
00:35:13,102 --> 00:35:15,452
- Congratulations, Lorelai.
- Thank you.
698
00:35:15,641 --> 00:35:17,469
I'm glad you guys came.
699
00:35:17,639 --> 00:35:19,830
Yes, well, we should get going.
700
00:35:20,219 --> 00:35:22,967
I guess we'll see you
tomorrow for dinner.
701
00:35:25,797 --> 00:35:27,068
Hey, wait.
702
00:35:27,212 --> 00:35:29,358
- Aren't we gonna take a picture?
- Excuse me?
703
00:35:29,543 --> 00:35:32,132
The three of us. Me in
the middle with the gown.
704
00:35:32,332 --> 00:35:34,205
You know, the traditional pose.
705
00:35:34,371 --> 00:35:37,357
Well, we don't have
a camera with us.
706
00:35:37,993 --> 00:35:39,264
Hold on.
707
00:35:41,115 --> 00:35:42,863
- That's a camera?
- That's a camera.
708
00:35:43,029 --> 00:35:44,585
It looks like a toy.
709
00:35:44,735 --> 00:35:46,484
Raul, would you mind?
710
00:35:54,142 --> 00:35:55,140
So...
711
00:35:55,890 --> 00:35:58,922
Okay, on the count
of one, two, three.
712
00:35:59,303 --> 00:36:00,496
Cheese.
713
00:36:03,550 --> 00:36:04,821
Thank you.
714
00:36:05,755 --> 00:36:07,708
Yes, well, tomorrow then.
715
00:36:08,253 --> 00:36:09,604
Absolutely.
716
00:36:10,043 --> 00:36:11,632
Let's go, Richard.
717
00:36:12,374 --> 00:36:14,361
I'll be right there, Emily.
718
00:36:17,202 --> 00:36:18,758
Congratulations.
719
00:36:19,865 --> 00:36:23,374
- You don't have to do this.
- Put it towards something fun.
720
00:36:24,361 --> 00:36:25,951
Thank you, Daddy.
721
00:36:30,729 --> 00:36:34,192
- We're so proud of you.
- Yeah. You were great up there.
722
00:36:34,434 --> 00:36:36,659
Thanks, you guys. Where's Rory?
723
00:36:38,013 --> 00:36:40,807
- No Rory?
- She called your cell, and I answered.
724
00:36:41,010 --> 00:36:43,996
She said she got hung up on
something and she'll see you at home.
725
00:36:44,216 --> 00:36:47,043
Hung up where? Is she okay?
726
00:36:47,254 --> 00:36:50,047
She said she's fine.
She's sorry, but fine.
727
00:36:52,332 --> 00:36:54,558
As long as she's okay, I guess.
728
00:36:55,828 --> 00:36:57,974
Well, I should probably
get the gown back.
729
00:36:58,159 --> 00:37:00,543
Thanks for coming, Sook,
Marcus Schenkenberg.
730
00:37:00,740 --> 00:37:02,727
You want to go out to
eat? Celebrate a little?
731
00:37:02,905 --> 00:37:05,936
- I think I'll just go home to Rory.
- I thought so.
732
00:37:06,151 --> 00:37:08,058
- See you tomorrow.
- Thanks.
733
00:37:10,812 --> 00:37:12,243
Wait a minute.
734
00:37:12,394 --> 00:37:15,743
Aspirins instead of Jordan almonds?
But we already bought the almonds.
735
00:37:15,974 --> 00:37:18,642
Now, that's the longest
anything's ever taken.
736
00:37:18,846 --> 00:37:21,798
My family's not gonna get the
joke. Can't we just use the almonds?
737
00:37:22,009 --> 00:37:23,917
Okay, sweetie, calm down.
738
00:37:35,786 --> 00:37:37,853
I'm so sorry.
739
00:37:38,035 --> 00:37:39,386
- You're okay, right?
- Yes.
740
00:37:39,533 --> 00:37:42,440
Everything's working. Your wrist
is okay. Nothing new is broken.
741
00:37:42,654 --> 00:37:43,652
I'm fine.
742
00:37:43,778 --> 00:37:46,003
Anyone you know, like
Lane, get sick today...
743
00:37:46,192 --> 00:37:48,542
or break an arm themselves,
or get in a car wreck?
744
00:37:48,732 --> 00:37:50,003
- No.
- Okay, good.
745
00:37:50,147 --> 00:37:52,702
Then I can get past worried
and move on to the other things.
746
00:37:52,893 --> 00:37:54,688
- I know you're hurt.
- You bet I'm hurt.
747
00:37:54,850 --> 00:37:56,996
I really wanted you there
today. More than anything.
748
00:37:57,181 --> 00:37:59,486
You're why I did this
stupid thing in the first place.
749
00:37:59,679 --> 00:38:01,036
It was a
once-in-a-lifetime thing.
750
00:38:01,176 --> 00:38:02,209
You should've been there.
751
00:38:02,342 --> 00:38:04,726
My best friend should have
been there. Whatever it was...
752
00:38:04,923 --> 00:38:07,307
you should have gotten
out of it. At least this once.
753
00:38:07,504 --> 00:38:09,490
- Was it school?
- It wasn't school.
754
00:38:09,668 --> 00:38:11,178
- Was it Paris?
- It wasn't Paris.
755
00:38:11,333 --> 00:38:12,684
- What was it?
- So stupid.
756
00:38:12,832 --> 00:38:14,501
Where were you? What happened?
757
00:38:14,663 --> 00:38:16,491
- I cut school.
- You what?
758
00:38:16,661 --> 00:38:20,964
I cut school, and I got on a bus,
and I don't even know why I did it.
759
00:38:21,406 --> 00:38:22,962
I have no excuse.
760
00:38:23,113 --> 00:38:26,939
I was just standing outside of
Chilton, and I must have had a stroke.
761
00:38:27,191 --> 00:38:30,257
- What does a stroke feel like?
- I don't know. Not good, probably.
762
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,704
I left school and I got on a
bus and I went to New York.
763
00:38:33,935 --> 00:38:37,319
That's it. I'm grounded
for six months or seven.
764
00:38:37,556 --> 00:38:39,509
And no TV, no
stereo, no reading.
765
00:38:39,679 --> 00:38:42,347
In fact, take all of my books
away from me and lock them up.
766
00:38:42,551 --> 00:38:43,982
Hold on, you went to New York?
767
00:38:44,132 --> 00:38:48,162
And no magazines, either. I'll do
all the housework. Laundry, dishes.
768
00:38:48,419 --> 00:38:50,724
We're gonna start eating
at home so we have dishes.
769
00:38:50,917 --> 00:38:52,790
Rory, stop. Why did
you go to New York?
770
00:38:52,957 --> 00:38:55,262
- To see Jess.
- Boy, do you know how to bury the lead.
771
00:38:55,454 --> 00:38:58,247
- I don't know what happened.
- You went to New York to see Jess.
772
00:38:58,450 --> 00:39:00,245
It was a stroke. It
made me someone else.
773
00:39:00,406 --> 00:39:03,041
- After his phone call last night...
- That was him?
774
00:39:03,238 --> 00:39:05,111
It did something to
me. I don't know what.
775
00:39:05,276 --> 00:39:07,548
In fact, you should take the
phone away from me, too.
776
00:39:07,732 --> 00:39:10,878
That's right. Add it to the list.
No books, no music, no phone.
777
00:39:11,104 --> 00:39:14,056
- I'm a horrible person.
- You're not a horrible person.
778
00:39:14,267 --> 00:39:17,060
I'm sick. I'm ill. I'm cracked.
This is not who I am.
779
00:39:17,264 --> 00:39:20,057
If I were to write this down in
my diary and I would read it...
780
00:39:20,261 --> 00:39:23,485
I would be like, "Who is this freak?
This isn't me. This isn't my diary."
781
00:39:23,716 --> 00:39:26,748
I wouldn't skip school
when I had finals coming up...
782
00:39:26,962 --> 00:39:28,677
to go see a guy that
isn't even my guy...
783
00:39:28,835 --> 00:39:32,707
and miss my mother's graduation,
which I wanted to be at so badly.
784
00:39:32,956 --> 00:39:34,148
That's someone else.
785
00:39:34,288 --> 00:39:37,354
That's someone flighty, and
stupid, and dumb, and girlie.
786
00:39:37,576 --> 00:39:39,371
I mean, I missed
your graduation...
787
00:39:39,532 --> 00:39:42,041
which is the worst thing I
could have possibly done.
788
00:39:42,238 --> 00:39:45,428
I hurt you, and I had to
spend hours on a stinky bus...
789
00:39:45,651 --> 00:39:47,956
next to a guy that was
spitting into a can...
790
00:39:48,149 --> 00:39:51,533
thinking about all the minutes going
by that I wasn't at your graduation...
791
00:39:51,770 --> 00:39:53,678
and they were hurting you...
792
00:39:53,851 --> 00:39:57,632
because it was so selfish of this
person who wasn't me to do what she did.
793
00:39:57,889 --> 00:40:00,239
- Take a breath.
- I don't deserve a breath.
794
00:40:00,428 --> 00:40:02,573
No breaths. You
should add that to the list.
795
00:40:02,759 --> 00:40:06,222
You should beat me, ground me, take
the phone away, and deprive me of air.
796
00:40:06,463 --> 00:40:09,449
Okay, look, nobody wants
to say this any less than me...
797
00:40:09,668 --> 00:40:13,131
but maybe you don't have a
medical condition or a mental problem.
798
00:40:13,372 --> 00:40:15,881
Maybe, honey, you
are falling for Jess.
799
00:40:16,078 --> 00:40:19,348
No. I love Dean.
Dean is my boyfriend.
800
00:40:19,575 --> 00:40:22,482
He will always be my
boyfriend. That's it. Forever.
801
00:40:22,696 --> 00:40:25,205
- Maybe not forever.
- Yes. Forever. I love Dean.
802
00:40:25,402 --> 00:40:27,627
Jess is gone now. Everything's
gonna be good again.
803
00:40:27,816 --> 00:40:30,246
- Everything's gonna be all right.
- Rory, you cut school.
804
00:40:30,438 --> 00:40:34,311
You got on a bus and went to a
strange city in your uniform to see Jess.
805
00:40:34,559 --> 00:40:35,557
I know.
806
00:40:35,683 --> 00:40:37,988
That doesn't mean nothing.
That means something.
807
00:40:38,180 --> 00:40:40,485
No. I don't want to
talk about this anymore.
808
00:40:40,678 --> 00:40:42,426
The only thing I
want to talk about...
809
00:40:42,593 --> 00:40:46,056
is the list I made on the bus of
all the ways I'll make this up to you.
810
00:40:46,297 --> 00:40:49,965
"You get total control over the remote
and the stereo for as long as you want."
811
00:40:50,209 --> 00:40:52,162
"Total control over
takeout food choices..."
812
00:40:52,332 --> 00:40:54,682
"And a special surprise
present every day for a month."
813
00:40:54,871 --> 00:40:58,255
- My God. I left your present on the bus.
- What present?
814
00:40:58,492 --> 00:41:02,001
It was a vinyl copy of the Go-Go's
original album signed by Belinda.
815
00:41:02,238 --> 00:41:04,668
But it's not the only copy.
I'm gonna find another copy.
816
00:41:04,860 --> 00:41:06,177
That's going on the list, too.
817
00:41:06,317 --> 00:41:08,747
Honey, please. Forget
about the list until tomorrow.
818
00:41:08,940 --> 00:41:11,767
Okay, I'll just go to bed
then. I'll go to my room.
819
00:41:11,979 --> 00:41:13,648
Hold on one second.
820
00:41:13,810 --> 00:41:15,638
Does this mean I
have to eat alone?
821
00:41:15,808 --> 00:41:18,363
It's up to you. Sending
me to bed without supper.
822
00:41:18,555 --> 00:41:20,781
You can't lose with that
punishment. It's a classic.
823
00:41:20,969 --> 00:41:22,684
I'd rather go out with
my daughter tonight.
824
00:41:22,842 --> 00:41:25,954
- I don't deserve it.
- No. But I do.
825
00:41:26,630 --> 00:41:28,583
Okay, just let me
take a shower...
826
00:41:28,752 --> 00:41:31,261
and get the horrible smell
of this horrible day off of me.
827
00:41:31,458 --> 00:41:34,648
Then we'll go anywhere you
want. My treat. And I won't enjoy it.
828
00:41:34,871 --> 00:41:37,096
Then we'll come home,
and I'll go straight to bed...
829
00:41:37,285 --> 00:41:38,920
and have a terrible
night's sleep, okay?
830
00:41:39,075 --> 00:41:40,222
Sounds great.
831
00:41:44,111 --> 00:41:45,939
I'm so, so sorry, Mom.
832
00:41:47,691 --> 00:41:49,087
Really?
833
00:41:50,022 --> 00:41:52,372
'Cause you didn't
make that clear.
834
00:41:53,352 --> 00:41:54,908
I won't be long.
