So, Lorelai couldn't have been more
than, what, 8 or 10 years old?

But she was very definite
about the whole thing.

She looked me directly in the eye,
and she said,

"When I grow up,
I'm going to marry Tip O'Neill."

I swear to you,
I nearly had a heart attack.

I liked the name "Tip." I thought it
was cute, like a puppy or a bunny.

Anyway, I'm happy that
you two got married,

and quite relieved not to have
had Tip O'Neill as a son-in-law.

Here's to your marriage --

our heartfelt congratulations.
We also got you a little gift.

Oh, yes,
which is crying out to be opened.

It's just a little token to
commemorate the occasion.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

I love the look of
this wrapping paper.

- To the happy couple...
- Oh, well, not the time.

- ...to Lorelai and Christopher.
- Hear, hear!

To Lorelai and Christopher.

Long may they live.
Okay, time to open?

Yes, Lorelai,
you may open your present.

For heaven's sake,
you're like a dolphin at feeding time.

Wow.

I mean, d--

I -- it's -- it's like, "wow."

It's an etching by Kiki Smith.

It's extraordinary, this item.

- Wow.
- Wow, right?

It's called "Wolf Girl."

Baldwin, our dealer,
is a big fan of Kiki Smith.

She's all the rage in New York.

That was very generous of you.

It's our pleasure.

All couples should
cultivate an art collection.

Well, this is gonna start
our collection off...

with a bang.

I'm so happy you love it. We were
flying blind without a gift registry.

Well, you flew great, mom.

Of course, I imagine it's
difficult to have the forethought

to register when you
decide to suddenly elope.

Everything changes when a couple elopes,
doesn't it?

Nothing is done in quite
the traditional manner --

for instance,
informing your parents of your marriage

I didn't say they were
home when I told them.

Mom, you're such a chicken.

You left a message
on their machine?

She certainly did.

I come home, and I push "play" on
the machine, and what do I hear

between a message
from Lily Margulies

about her fund-raiser
for tanzanian children

and one from my tennis pro,

but my very own
daughter telling me,

guess what -- she's married.

- Mom, I'm sorry. I just --
- Why just talk about it?

- Why not share it?
- No, no! Hey, hey!

Hey, just wanted you guys to know,
Christopher and I are back from Paris.

G.G.'s all set.

And, uh, we just ended up, uh...
getting married.

So, anyway,
see you friday. Bye!

Isn't that lovely?

Mom, erase that, please.

I most certainly will not.

Your father and I plan
to treasure it forever.

We're going to have it as
a keepsake or a memento.

"Remember when Lorelai
told us she was married?"

"Ah, yes, and what was
it exactly that she said?"

"I think it was
something like this."

Hey, just wanted you guys to know,
Christopher and I are back from Paris.

G.G.'s all set.

And, uh, we just ended up, uh...
getting married. So, anyway--

The lamb is delicious, Emily.

Who's being Mr. "Favorite
son-in-law happy smile face"?

I'm glad you're enjoying
it, Christopher.

My butcher had it flown
in from New Zealand.

- First class, I hope.
- Well, the dinner is very nice.

It is.

It ought to be.
We have cause to celebrate.

Yes, we do.
Speaking of which, we have decided

that we would like to throw
you two a wedding party.

- Oh, that's very sweet.
- Very sweet.

Very sweet, mom, but you know what --
it's totally unnecessary.

Look, you already gave us
"Wolf Girl," which, I mean, ah?

- How do you top that?
- We insist.

Dad, we're already married.
Isn't it too late?

No, but soon it will be.
We need to get on this right away.

We don't want it to look as if there's
anything to be ashamed of here.

If we don't throw a party,
who knows what people will think?

Why don't you give us
an anniversary party?

Like a 10th?
Wouldn't that be nice, honey?

I mean, what is 10 --
bronze, sandstone, particleboard?

Actually, it's tin.

But that's not for 10 years.

Giving you plenty of
time to plan. Tin?

Things just stick in my brain.

Lorelai, you ought to
celebrate your marriage.

We did. We did celebrate --
right after we got married,

we went out and had a beautiful meal,
didn't we?

We had a beautiful meal.

Yeah, we had a chocolate mousse and
a para liqueur and a cheese plate.

A cheese plate?

Since when is a hunk of
fermented milk a suitable means

- for celebrating a marriage?
- Look mom, we're good.

- Honestly, we're celebrated out.
- But what about us?

Hey, if you and dad want a party,
it's fine by me.

Buy some 40s, rent an inflatable
bounce house. That's great.

- Knock yourselves out.
- What about Rory?

What about Rory?

Rory, now tell me, don't you think this
marriage should be officially celebrated?

Well... yes, actually.

I think it would be nice.

Christopher?

Well, I think it would be fun.

I'm not one to turn
down a free cocktail.

Lorelai?

Okay, then, let's celebrate.
Let's have a party.

Wonderful.

Now, if we book the Harbor Club,
we can't have more than 400.

So Lorelai, I'll need a list of your
people as soon as it's earthly possible --

you too, Christopher.

Well, I can give you my list right now.
It's me, Chris, Rory,

Logan --
if Rory wants him there --

Sookie, Jackson, and Michel.

That's it?

You can invite more people than that.
It's your day.

That's my list.

Why don't you invite some of your
charming Stars Hollow friends?

That's okay, mom.

We can make it black-tie optional,
if that will help.

It's not because they
don't have black ties.

Suit yourself.
Now, what do you think --

a string quartet, or something more fun,
like a swing band?

My god, woman,
is there a book you don't own?

I'm so sorry.

I think I may have
re-activated my scoliosis.

Suck it up, people.
That was the last of it.

So much for one trip, huh?

Well, who knew I had nine
trips' worth of stuff?

Your place is so big, it made my
stuff look small and inconsequential.

Did I mention I'm so sorry?

Two copies of "The
Norton Anthology"?

They were gifts.
I can't get rid of gifts.

Okay, looks like all that's left
to do now is the paperwork.

- Paperwork?
- The lease.

- You want me to sign a lease?
- Well you are subletting from me and

the last time you lived here, you just
up and left in the middle of the year.

Um, you kicked me out.

You moved all my stuff out in
the hallway and locked the door.

Well, now you'll have a
legally binding contract

that will negate my ability
to do that in the future.

All right. What does it say?

Standard boiler-plate stuff --
just sign here and here.

And initial here and here.

Okay. What is this?

"Rights and privileges of Logan
Huntzberger or any other paramours"?

If Logan is going to be
spending an enormous amount of time here,

it's only fair to assess a daily
tariff for water and power use.

- Paris!
- It's a very simple formula,

based on the number of nights he
spends per month at the apartment,

times the approximate minutes per day he
spends showering, brushing his teeth,

and/or surfing the internet.
And sunday is no charge.

It's okay. I'll kick in, Paris.

Thataboy, Rockefeller.

- All right.
- Okay.

- Welcome back to the hood.
- Thanks.

- It's good to have you back, Rory.
- Oh, thanks, Doyle.

- All right, I better take off.
- Oh, no.

You just got here,
and we spent the whole time moving.

Why don't you come
in on thursday?

I've got to wine-and-dine some clients,
but you should join us, it'll be fun.

We'll rack up an obscene bill at
Nobu and charge it all to my dad.

I can't.
It's Lucy's 21st birthday on thursday.

We're throwing her a big party.

I was hoping you
might be able to come.

I can't -- Nobu.

Nobu, schmobu.
It's a college party.

Don't you miss college parties?
Our theme's 2002.

- Why?
- Just because.

- What's your theme?
- Contracts.

Boring. 2002's so much better.

Just bring your clients,
and we'll let them tap the keg.

- Right.
- Come on.

It's a 2002 party, right?
In 2002, you were a college freshman.

You would have been
bored by businessmen

and thrilled to go to a party
thrown by hot senior girls.

It's all very tempting,
but I have to go.

- I know.
- I love you.

Love you, too.

I'll put you down for
half a day, Logan.

Good morning.

Well, good morning,
madame Defarge.

Good morning, Mr. "I remember stuff
from english class in high school."

Can I ask how long this Mr.
"Long sentence

of words strung together"
thing is gonna last?

I'm not sure, Mr.
"Doesn't understand

the more annoying you tell me a bit is,
the more I want to do it."

Look at you, knitting away,
just like a proper married lady,

the picture of domesticity.

So what's for breakfast, Martha Stewart?
Poached eggs? Blueberry muffins?

Oh, is there gonna be
fresh-squeezed orange juice?

'Cause I'd really appreciate it
if you could strain the pulp.

Yeah, I got your strained
pulp right here, buddy.

So what exactly
are you knitting?

It doesn't matter
what I'm knitting.

I'm knitting just to knit.

Someone's philosophical.

No, someone is in training
for the knitathon.

And we get pledged
by the skein,

so I'm just working
on my speed.

- "Knitathon"?
- Yeah.

You didn't hear
about the knitathon?

I did not hear about the knitathon.
Do you want something?

Yeah. Poached eggs and
some orange-juice pulp.

- How about coffee?
- Sold.

So, we are holding a knitathon
the day after tomorrow

to raise money to rebuild
the old muddy river bridge.

What's wrong with the bridge?

Well, we rebuilt it a couple years ago,
but now it's started to rot.

- Oh yeah?
- Yeah.

It's too bad, too,
'cause it was gorgeous.

We all loved, loved, loved it.

It was sturdy and strong, made out
of these beautiful japanese maple --

which it turnes out is exactly the
kind of wood that attracts beetles,

and I'm not talking
british-invasion kind of beatles.

I'm talking the kind of
beetles that like to eat wood.

So now we're gonna make it
out of a less-delicious wood.

Ah. So, how goes the training?

Are your fingers getting
strong and muscly?

My fingers are fine.
It's these needles.

I keep dropping stitches
'cause they're slippery.

I need nonslip needles.

Do they make nonslip needles?

I don't know.
You know what, I'm gonna go into town

and see if anyone's
selling them.

- Oh yeah ? I'll come with.
- That's okay.

No, no. I could use some air.

Yeah, but I have
errands to run.

Plus I got to go to
the dry cleaner's.

So?

So I don't want to subject you
to Lizzie the crazy dry cleaner.

It's very intense, you know.
She starts complaining about --

Why don't you want me to
come into town with you?

Oh. Well, you know...

I just want to give people...
time to adjust.

- To?
- To you and me.

I mean, I just want to be sensitive,
you know?

You're not who they expected,
and I--

I just don't want the marriage
to seem sudden, you know.

I-I want to kind of
ease them into it.

Is that why you didn't want to invite
any of your friends to your mother's party?

No. Well, yeah, but 90% of it
was I didn't want them to have

to deal with salsa dancing and
the peabodys and the sandborns.

But I guess 10% is I
didn't want to feel like

I'm shoving our marriage
down their throats.

By inviting them to a party?

So soon. I just don't want it to
seem like we're flaunting, you know.

I want to give them
time to adjust.

They're not gonna adjust
if they never see me.

Yeah. You're right.

Come on.
Let's go for a stroll.

Okay, but a stroll.
Not a strut.

Yes, I promise I will keep my
chicken-walking to an absolute minimum.

- How long is this gonna go on?
- Couple more days.

It's ridiculous already.
Somebody's gonna poke an eye out.

You're just bumming
'cause April's gone.

First, get your hand
off my shoulder.

Second, I'm not bumming,
and April is not gone.

She just went back to
living with her mother.

I'm just saying,
I'm feeling you, Luke.

- Luke.
- T.J.

- I need a drink.
- We don't serve alcohol.

Well, then,
anything that's carbonated.

If I drink fast enough,
bubbles tend to have the same effect.

What are you doing here?
Is Liz okay?

She's gonna have a
baby at any moment.

- It's not good, Luke.
- What?

We're having a
baby at our house.

We talked about this.
You're gonna be a great dad, T.J.

No. You don't understand. We're having
a baby at our house any minute now.

Liz wants to have our
baby in our living room!

What? Why?
What about a hospital?

She won't go! She's got it in her head
that this should be done at home.

My sister is gonna
have her baby at home?

She got the idea from --
phew! -- Marcy Hedges,

who plays the midwife at
the renaissance festivals.

Only Marcy has five kids --

all born in hospitals --

and now she's telling Liz
how amazing and natural it is

for her to do it at home.

This is crazy.

Liz said she had Jess at a hospital,
and she wants to have this one at home.

She has this birth coach,
called a doula.

That's not her real name.

Don't call her that.
She's very touchy.

Her real name is Sandy.

Okay. Sandy the doula.

Anyway, Sandy's done about
200 of these home births,

and she says statistically, they're
every bit as safe as hospital births.

I can't believe she's
having her baby at home.

Anyway, she wants you to
be there at the birth.

She wants the baby to
be born around family.

So I promised I'd
get you to come.

Of course, sure. I'll be there.

Just call me whenever,
and I'll come right by.

Great. Thanks, Luke.

That feels good.

Yeah, all right,
I'll see you later, T.J.

Just let me know when
the water breaks.

Go take care of her, all right?

- All right.
- See you, man.

That's it! All right,
this diner is now a knit-free zone!

Stop knitting or
get the hell out!

..yarn around,
new loop through, old loop up.

Needle in, yarn around,
new loop through, old loop up.

Keep a gentle tension
on the strand!

Humongous needle!

Careful! Just because
it's decorative

doesn't mean it's not sharp!

- I don't like root beer.
- No?

Not without carbonation.
You want it?

- Your used dum dum?
- It's not used. It's vintage.

It was nice of Lizzie, though.

Dude, 15 minutes of
perchloroethylene talk?

We earned those dum
dums fair and square.

All right, knit and purl,
like brick and mortar!

- Hey, Babette!
- Oh, hey!

Keep going with the
rib stitch there.

How are you, sweetheart?

Hey, Christopher.

How you doing, Babette?

Congratulations on the
getting-married thing.

I'd give you a hug,
but my hands are kind of full here.

- So, you eloped.
- Yeah.

We were in Paris,
and we eloped.

That's smart, eloping. Smart.

Who needs the hassle
of a real wedding, you know?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

All the planning and the fuss,
so much stress.

Exactly.

Plus the dress.
I mean, why would anyone want to buy

a big, expensive wedding dress
you could only wear once?

Except for me.
I got to wear mine twice.

But once was for Halloween.
I was the bride of Chucky.

Oh, yeah?
Did Morey go as Chucky?

Huh?! No,
he was a futuristic pirate!

So, welcome to Stars Hollow!

Thank you.
It's good to be here.

Knit and purl!

Lorelai, Christopher,
there you are.

Hey, Patty.

I'm sorry I didn't get
this to you sooner.

Part of my job as
town social chair

is greeting all newlyweds with
the Stars Hollow welcome wagon.

Look at all this.
Thank you so much.

Just a few odds and ends from our
town merchants to say "welcome."

This is so cool. I didn't know the
welcome wagon came in a real wagon.

Yeah.

Well... so there you go.

- Oh, terrific. Thank you.
- Thank you, Patty.

So, how are you adjusting to
Stars Hollow, Christopher?

Oh, it's terrific.

I'd bet you're bored
senseless here.

No, no. Not at all.

There's hardly any nightlife.
I mean, a worldly guy like you

must feel like he's
out in the sticks.

Well, my discothequing
days are mostly behind me.

Anyway, I probably should run.
Enjoy the wagon.

- Thank you.
- Bye, Patty.

You want a ride?

No. That's okay.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Um, I have some 2002
paraphernalia here.

Okay.

Are Lucy and Olivia home?

No.

'Cause they said to
bring this stuff by.

Do you know when
they'll be back?

No.

Do you know where they went?

- Just down the hall.
- Rory!

- Yay! Rory's here!
- Oh, hey, guys.

- You brought stuff.
- As promised.

- Let's see.
- Boyfriend.

Nice poster work.

I went with double-sided
tape rather than thumbtacks.

I think it gives
it a cleaner look.

I think you're right.
Plus, double-sided tape is so 2002.

- You're a genius.
- You're my inspiration.

- You brought J.Lo?
- Of course.

- And I have boots.
- Oh, my god, so did we!

We are gonna ugg-ugg!

My feet were so much more
comfortable in 2002.

What do you think, boyfriend?

Very Clydesdale.

Hey, compliments only from
boyfriends on birthdays.

- You're beautiful.
- Thank you.

- Hey, Luke.
- Hey, Anna.

- How's April doing?
- She's doing great.

I'm pretty sure as of friday,
she had shown her appendix scar

to every one of her teachers and
classmates. She's quite proud of it.

I'm just glad she's doing good.

Yeah, me too.

Um, can we talk in private?

Sure. Come on up.

Caesar, I'll be back!

Oh, the place looks nice.

April's handiwork.

Right. She told me -- cerulean.

So, um... my mom --

Yeah. How's she doing?

Still recovering.

I think I have her
care all worked out,

but it is an ongoing rubik's cube
of day, night, and weekend nurses.

That's tough.

Yeah, especially being on the
other side of the country.

And she's really lonely.

I thought about
moving her up here.

But she's been living in
that house for 42 years,

and I just feel like
it would be cruel.

Yeah. Say,
April can stay with me any time.

Whatever you need.

Luke...

I've decided that April and I
are gonna move to New Mexico.

Oh. Really? Wow.

Yeah, I-I'm sorry,
but my mother is all alone.

Yeah. Yeah.
Uh, it's, uh... wow.

But it's where I grew up,
so I know the area.

They have a lot of
really good schools.

Does April know?

- I told her last night.
- How's -- I mean...

is she okay with it?

Well, she's not thrilled.

It'll take some
getting used to, but...

So, when? How soon?

As soon as possible.

Tina, my assistant manager,
is gonna run the business for me.

I've already been
looking online at houses,

found a nice
little neighborhood.

And I just --
I wanted to, you know, let you know.

Yeah. Hey, uh, I guess you got to
do what you got to do, you know.

I mean, when my dad was sick...

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I should go.

- I have some things.
- Sure. Sure.

Yeah.

Drat you,
you dratted spaghetti,

you slippery, slithery,
uncooperative --

- Am I interrupting something?
- No.

Seriously, if you and spaghetti need
privacy, I can come back later.

In the middle of the night last night,
I woke up with an idea.

Yeah?

For days,
I've been trying to figure out

what to serve at my
knitathon booth, right?

So, it's 2:00 a.m.
Flash! I have a vision.

Balls of yarn made
out of spaghetti,

with breadsticks stuck in the middle,
like knitting needles.

It's brilliant!
Brilliant! Horrible!

Not that appetizing. Why don't
you just make regular spaghetti?

'Cause that's not theme-y.

Why are you in early? I thought
you were not coming in till late.

Well, I was,
but I had some paperwork and...

And, um...

Christopher and I just
walked through town.

And?

Everyone was very cordial.

Ooh. Cordial?

Yes. They said hello.
They shook his hand.

They welcomed him
to Stars Hollow.

Jeez, really? Cordial?

Yes. Creepy, right?
I saw miss Patty and Babette.

Neither one of them
pinched his butt.

Well, honey,
you married an outsider.

I know.

We just --
we all thought you and Luke...

I knew people thought me and Luke.
I thought me and Luke.

But it's not me and Luke.
It's me and Christopher.

I know. It's just --
people really loved you and Luke.

Right. But it's not their life.
It's my life.

And frankly, I don't see why I
should have to go around feeling bad

that my life didn't turn out
the way everybody wanted it to.

- I know--
- I'm sick of it. I really am.

And, look,
I understand that you liked Luke

and you're not so sure
about Christopher,

but, Sookie,
you're my best friend.

I really need your
support here.

I mean,
Christopher is my husband,

and it would be great if
you would just get on board.

- Okay.
- Okay?

Yeah, I'm on board.
What do you need?

I'll swab the deck, I'll hoist
the sail -- anything nautical.

Okay, I need you to help me get
the rest of the town on board.

- Okay.
- Okay. What do we do?

- We need a campaign.
- Right. A campaign.

Oh, he could walk Paul
Anka around town.

Cute guy, cute dog --
very appealing.

Paul Anka's not good with sidewalks --
sensitive paws.

He could pull him in the
welcome wagon -- or Jackson.

You want him to pull
Jackson around on a wagon?

No, maybe he and Jackson
could do something together.

You know,
Jackson's got a lot of clout.

If people see that
Jackson likes Christopher,

then maybe they'll
like Christopher.

You think Jackson's
got a lot of clout?

Jackson has tons of clout.
He's lousy with clout.

Okay. What should they do?

Something where
they'll be seen.

Ooh, how about a movie?

- Too dark.
- Yeah. Yeah.

Pancakes at Al's?

Jackson is off of wheat.

But, ooh, how about
country night at miss Patty's?

Chris and Jackson?

Well, I mean, Jackson is a fiendish
two-stepper, but he's handsy.

- What do regular guys do?
- Grunt?

- Scratch?
- Leave the toilet seat up?

- Talk about sports?
- Talk about cars?

- Burp?
- Beer!

- Drink beer.
- At Casey's!

- Perfect.
- Oh, like manly.

- Simple.
- Ooh!

And while they're scratching and grunting,
we can actually go do something fun.

- Country night at miss Patty's.
- Mm-hmm. Hee-haw.

So, what are you up for tonight?
I was thinking we could

rent "A brief history
of time" again.

Maybe I'll understand something
more than the credits this time.

Sure.

Look... your mom told
me you were moving.

- To New Mexico.
- Yes, it's not so bad.

You've been there visiting
your grandma before, right?

I don't want to
move to the desert!

It's just--
there aren't even any seasons!

It's hot,
and it's a miserable place,

- and I hate it!
- Let's take a walk.

Come on. Come on.
Come on. Come on.

Look, I know you're
a little upset,

but this could be a
really good thing --

I mean, the new people you'll meet,
the teachers you'll impress.

- I'll never see my friends again.
- Of course you will --

Breaks from school
over the summer.

No, Janie Freedman moved to
Virginia at the end of last year

'cause her dad got
some teaching job.

And she said she'd stay
in touch with everybody,

and she did for like a week.

And then after that,
nobody ever heard from her again.

It doesn't have
to be like that.

We're moving 2,000 miles away!
That's how it's gonna work!

- Mom is ruining my life!
- April.

I'm finally happy.
I finally have friends.

It took me forever,
and now I'm just gonna be

that weird,
dorky loser girl all over again!

I know. Come on.
It's gonna be fine.

- I don't get it.
- What?

- 2002 party.
- It's a theme.

How is that a theme?

It's just supposed to be funny.

- I'm not laughing.
- Well, you don't have to go.

Why not 2001?

It could be 2001, I guess.

"Space odyssey" --
that's a theme.

People dress up like
astronauts or apes.

I don't know what
to tell you, Paris.

- Will there be dancing?
- Yes, it will be dancing.

What kind of dancing?

I don't know. 2002 dancing?

So we're talking
mostly hip-hop.

Paris, you don't have to
hip-hop-dance at this party.

I can hip-hop-dance.
Don't you worry.

Doyle and I will be
scorching the floorboards.

Looking forward to that.

- Hi, mom.
- So what are you gonna pledge me?

- In the knitathon?
- Yeah, what do you say?

- Like 10 bucks a skein?
- How about $5?

- So, $15?
- Make it $3.

- $20 a skein?
- A buck 50.

- 25 smackeroos?
- 75 cents.

We have no idea how to haggle,
do we?

No idea. Why don't you just
put me down for $30 even?

I will not take less than $30,
and then you got a done deal.

The best I can do is $30.

All right, you give me $30,
and it's a deal.

Do I have to pledge dad, too?

No, no, he's just a spectator.
Although, you know what he's doing?

He's going on a
man-date with Jackson.

Cute. A mandated man-date?

Yes, it was
suggested enthusiastically.

What is that you're
listening to?

That's Paris. She and Doyle are
threatening to scorch the floorboards

at Lucy's party.

Aw. Poor floorboards.

Hey, how did all
the party prep go?

Good. We're just about ready
to party like it's 2002.

There's just one thing though --
this whole Marty debacle.

It's just so annoying
to be around him.

Is he still acting
all cold and weird?

Beyond cold and beyond weird.

You're a hard one to get over, kid,
you know. He probably just feels bad.

When guys feel rejected,
they act all cold and weird.

Yeah, but I rejected him,
if that's even what happened, years ago.

I mean, isn't there a statute of
limitations for being a jerk?

Marty just probably
feels awkward.

Maybe you should
try to be nice.

He's not exactly
being nice to me.

Well, you have to be
the bigger person.

Why doesn't he be
the bigger person?

Because you're 11 feet tall
and he's a mere mortal.

I hate being 11 feet tall.

I know.
It's hell finding jeans that fit, huh?

I got to go.
I got a man-date fashion disaster.

All right,
I'll talk to you later.

So, uh, $30 a skein?

- Total -- $30 total.
- Yeah.

Hey.

W-What?

Is that what you're wearing?

What? What's wrong
with what I'm wearing?

Nothing. It's just
that it's, um...

- What?
- ...black.

- It's a black shirt.
- Yeah.

Okay, then.

It's very Joaquin
Phoenix at the Oscars.

I have no clue what that means.

It's very fitted.

I should wear a shirt
that doesn't fit?

No.

- Should I tuck it in?
- No!

Why are you grimacing
at this shirt?!

Um... I don't know.

Maybe it's not the best thing to
wear on your man-date with Jackson.

Okay, first of all,
if you say "man-date" one more time,

there is no way in hell
I am leaving this house.

And second, last I knew, I was about
to go and have a beer with a farmer.

I don't think it really
matters what I'm wearing.

Oh, it is very important that
you make a good impression.

Lor, come on,
how great did our walk through town go?

You were all worried about that,
and everybody was nice.

- They were nice.
- It went great.

- Eh.
- Didn't it?

- Nah.
- What are you saying?

I'm saying it didn't go so great.
They were cordial, they were polite.

But the wagon...

Was full of cleaning
supplies and shoe trees.

When Claude and Michael
Davies got married,

they got handmade clothing
and homemade baked goods,

and the pizza guy
whittled them bookends

in the shape of
senegalese tigers.

That's a welcome wagon.

We got a "we're tolerating
that you're here" wagon.

Sorry.

So, going out with Jackson
is important because...?

Jackson is loved.
Jackson is respected.

If you're in with Jackson,
you're in with Stars Hollow.

Okay, maybe I could wear
the gray polo shirt.

I love that idea!

- What about the jeans?
- They're fine.

They're just a little tight.

All right,
I'll change the jeans.

The shoes?

All right, I'll change the shoes.
I hate to say this out loud,

but all of a sudden, I'm very nervous
about my man-date with a farmer.

You're gonna be great.

Not too much stuff in the hair!

So, what do you think?

I'm down with any place where you can
throw your peanut shells on the floor.

Not exactly a
Manhattan hot spot.

A beer in Stars Hollow tastes
just as good as a beer in Soho,

and it's a hell
of a lot cheaper.

It's a Microbrew.

They brew it right
here on the premises.

So, what's your best crop?
Do you have a favorite?

Don't get me started.
I love them all.

But it has been a
standout eggplant year.

- Do you like eggplant?
- Yep.

Don't say another word.
I am your eggplant connection.

Guess I'm gonna have to get
rid of my other guy, then.

It's just -- it's just a joke.

Oh. Yeah.

- So, you and Lorelai, huh?
- Yeah.

That's quite an achievement. I mean,
many have tried, many have failed.

Yeah, I feel pretty lucky.

You know what I love about farming?
The commitment.

No shortcuts, no quitting.

You have got to be
there for your crops

morning, noon, and night.

I mean, you can have the
greatest soil and perfect seeds,

but if you are not
100% committed,

you might as well pave
over those 32 acres

and build yourself a strip mall.
You know what I mean?

It's a lot of responsibility.

It sure is.

It sounds like you
really love farming.

I do.

Sookie and I, we both do.

Me too.

Yeahn okay. If you want to come by,
I'll be in all afternoon.

Great. I'll see you then. Bye.

- Hey.
- Thanks for coming.

Sure. What's up?

Well, April --
she's pretty upset.

Yeah, I know.

I wanted to make sure we were
doing everything we could

to make it as easy as,
you know, it could be for her.

- So, what have you got in mind?
- Okay, well, I was thinking.

Instead of pulling her out in
the middle of the school year,

maybe you could wait to move
till the end of the school year?

And you don't think
I thought about that.

No, you could go back and forth,
and still be there for your mom,

and I could help
covering for April here.

No, I have to be out there full
time as soon as possible, Luke.

Oh, well, she could stay
with me to finish the year.

She's already been with me
for two months, you know?

I'd love it.
It would be great, actually.

Luke, I know you mean well,
but that's not gonna happen, okay?

I'm not splitting apart
from April for six months.

No, I understand.

Okay, so, maybe, you know,
we could buy her some plane tickets

so she'll know she's going
back and forth and when?

We can't make that plan now.

No, it doesn't have to
include everything.

But, like, I already told
her she could stay with me

for spring break
and part of the summer, so if --

Whoa. You told her that?

- You actually said that?
- Yeah.

I have no idea what
we'll be doing then.

I just assumed that --

You have no right making
promises to my daughter.

I just wanted her--

I don't want you talking to her
about this again. Are we clear?

- Anna.
- No, Luke.

Listen, these are my decisions.

I'm not gonna have you
going behind my back,

making promises to
April that I can't keep.

So, are you saying
she's not coming back?

I am saying I'm not
ready to make decisions.

And they are my decisions to make,
not yours, Luke.

Now I'm gonna go.

Hello?

It's showtime, Luke!

What the hell's going on over there?
Is Liz okay?

She's amazing!

We're having a baby, baby!

It's beautiful!
You got to get over here.

I'm on my way!

Free needles.
Free for everyone.

Free needles! Free needles!

See? Who says Stars
Hollow's not progressive?

- Hey.
- Hey, you guys.

- Yummy.
- Hey, Jackson. What's up?

Hey. How's it going? So wednesday
night -- we still on to watch the game?

Sounds good.

All right, we're gonna stake out
some prime knitting real estate.

See you later.

- Save us a spot!
- We will.

You're seeing Jackson
wednesday, huh?

Yeah, we were thinking maybe.

- I guess that could work.
- What do you mean?

- I have some other plans for you.
- Plans?

Yeah, you got bird-watching with Morey,
darts with Andrew.

Ooh, and Glenn Belkin wanted
to have coffee with you.

He is the head coach of the
peewee little league teams.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yes.

He think he might have a plum
assistant-coaching job for you.

Assistant coach, huh?

All right, I'm feeling the
knitting vibes right here.

Hello, hello!

Hiya, kids.
Boy, it's a chilly one, huh?

Welcome, fair citizens
of Stars Hollow.

We come together on this
glorious autumnal day

to rescue our beloved
muddy river bridge.

And the knitting will commence
at precisely 10:00 a.m.,

and we will knit unceasingly
until our long day's journey ends

at the stroke of 10:00 p.m.

Taylor, 10:00 a.m.
is 40 seconds away.

What? No.
I've got 3 1/2 more minutes.

I've timed this speech to
last exactly 3 1/2 minutes.

Um, a bridge is not merely a feat
of engineering and architecture.

A bridge is also a metaphor.

Taylor, I'm sorry.
Your watch is wrong.

I have precise atomic clock time.
28 seconds.

I'm with Kirk! 26 seconds!

But I just got this watch.

- Make that 22, 21.
- 20.

As I was saying, a bridge is a metaphor,
a meeting place between here and there,

between the past and the future.
The Golden Gate, the Brooklyn...

to raise funds...

- our duty as citizens!
- Nine seconds!

Real-time accounting
of the funds approved.

Seven seconds!

- As we strive toward --
- Six!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

Oh, fine! Go ahead and knit!

Thank you! Thanks so much.

- Hey.
- Hi.

How are you enjoying
your first legal drink?

Third, actually.

I like it, although I kind
of miss being a lawbreaker.

Oh, my god. It's Paris Geller.

- I told you.
- You totally delivered.

Who's the dude?

That's her boyfriend -- Doyle.

- I'm fascinated.
- Go talk to her.

- Really?
- Yes, it's your party.

How do I look?

You look tiara'ed,
21, and fabulous.

Hi! Thank you for
coming to my party.

Barkeep, I'll have an upside-down
tequila slammer with a twist.

I don't know how to make that.

Yeah, I just made it up.

Really? Is this the
way it's gonna be?

I say something, and you grunt
and make me feel like an idiot?

Really? That's it?

What do you want me to say?

Well, what I would
like you to say

is that you've put me in a
really difficult position,

and the least you can do
is not be a jerk about it.

I'm sorry.

Yeah?

Yeah.

So you're done being a jerk?

Y-Yeah, I-I'm done.

Good.

So you still want that
upside-down tequila slammer?

- With a twist.
- Right.

- Probably has tequila in it.
- Yeah.

Um, the upside-down part,
I'll have to improvise.

But the slammer and the twist
are pretty straightforward.

You might want to stand back.

Oh, okay.

Go, Paris! Go, Paris!
Go, Paris!

Go, Paris! Go, Paris!

Shh! It's okay, sweet girl.

Y-You sure about
the name "Doula"?

She's such a Doula.
Isn't that right, gorgeous?

- It's cute, right?
- Yeah, no no.

What's that, Doula?

I want my uncle
Luke to hold me.

Oh, no, no, no. You keep her.

Please! Uncle Lukey!

- No, really.
- Come on, Luke.

I-I don't have to.

I want my uncle
Lukey to hold me!

Okay. Okay.

- Here you go, Doula.
- Here we go.

- Look at her.
- Hey, Doula.

Isn't she beautiful? Look at her eyes.
She's got Liz's eyes.

It's true.

And --
and aunt Sissy's chin, right?

- That's totally Sissy's chin.
- No, Sissy was adopted.

- So?
- So.

Well, I-I don't know how she does it,
but she's got her chin.

What do you think, Luke?

She's great.

That's your uncle Luke.

And Luke's daughter
is your cousin April.

Now, I bet April is gonna be
your number-one babysitter.

Am I right, Luke?

Yeah. Sure.

$2,200! Not bad, people!
Not good, exactly, but not bad.

And we have seven more hours to make
up the rest, so keep on knitting!

And as you do,
think of the bridge!

Who wants coffee?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Thank you, Christopher.

We're not gonna make it,
are we?

Not without doping.

You guys don't talk like that!
Think of the bridge.

We'll never be able to look it in
the I-bar again if you let it down.

How's it going?

Well, I can't tell if my
hands are cramping or numb,

but they just keep knitting. So I
guess I'm trying not to think about it,

although I guess, right now,
I am thinking about it.

Maybe scheduling an
outdoor event in november

wasn't such a great move.

It was a great move --
a Fred-and-Ginger-type move.

It's just a brisk fall day.

Nah, it's a bad move,

but it's part of a great
tradition of bad moves by Taylor.

Could I have everyone's
attention, please?

I just received a
donation of $7,800!

Thanks very much to Stars
Hollow's newest resident,

Christopher Hayden, for bringing
us up to our goal of $10,000!

Honey?

Christopher, you did that?

Yeah. Well, yeah, I --

Well, tha-- thank you.
Uh, i-it was really...

Generous. It's generous, right?

Yeah, generous.

Thanks, Christopher.

You're welcome.
I just figured --

So what?
Do we stop knitting now?

Okay, pack it up, people.

I guess we stop knitting now.

We've reached our goal.
Our work is done here.

If we get that llama back in the next
half-hour, we're gonna save a bundle.

Wait, you guys, what are you doing?
W-Why are you leaving?

Well, you heard Taylor.

Yeah, but nobody ever listens to Taylor.
Come on, we got to keep knitting.

- It's seven more hours.
- What's the point?!

The point is, it's fun.
It's a festival.

We haven't even got rowdy. we haven't
even wrapped Taylor in yarn yet.

- Like a big Taylor cozy.
- Yeah.

But we already got all the money.
So, thanks very much, Christopher.

You're welcome.

Gypsy?

7,800 buckaroos.

Wow. You must really love
bridges, Christopher.

What are you doing?

I'm gonna go catch a movie.

Wait a minute.
Where is your Stars Hollow spirit, huh?

Where's the love of knitting
just for knitting's sake?

At the movies?

- Sorry, honey.
- Yeah.

I wonder what's playing.

I don't know, but I'll bet
it's nice and toasty in there.

Thanks again, Christopher.

Sure. Happy to help.

Okay, let's get those needles down!
And careful, there, fellas!

Just because they're decorative
doesn't mean they're not sharp.

How is she still dancing?

Paris?

No -- Lucy.

Paris I understand,

'cause Paris has been training for
this like it's an olympic event.

But Lucy?
Lucy weighs 11 pounds,

and I'm pretty sure most
of that is tequila by now.

The girl loves to move.

Oh, buzz-cut boys
going through.

Mmm! I'm going in.
I've got time for one or two

more awkward interactions
before the night is through.

Nice.

The bar is closed!

You finally quit.

Nope, just ran out of booze.

I think I drank most of it.

That upside twisted slammer
was living up to its name, man.

I don't know if I'm more
twisted or slammed.

I'm both.
I think I had three of them.

Or was it four?

You know,
the last time I saw you drunk,

you were passed out and
naked outside my dorm room.

So, the truth comes out
after all these years.

- You checked me out.
- I did not.

- It was uncomfortable and weird.
- Well, it's for the best.

I was quite the
scrawny freshman.

I think I actually
weighed 98 pounds.

But, you know, now...

- You've been working out.
- Can't you tell?

I'm huge. I'm massive.
I'm Marty Schwarzenegger.

I can tell.
You're looking good.

And you are more
beautiful than ever.

Um, you should be
out there with Lucy.

Hi!

Why should I feel bad that I donated
$7,000 to help save the bridge?

You shouldn't.

I don't. I thought the point
was to save the bridge.

Well, the point was to
save it with knitting.

- That doesn't make any --
- I know it doesn't make any sense.

That's Stars Hollow.
That's just how it is.

It's hard for outsiders
to understand.

So I'm an outsider?

For now.

I thought I was
doing a good thing.

I know. You just don't have to
drop all that money like that.

- I know I don't have to.
- You don't have to try so hard

to get people to like you.
What?

- That's funny.
- Why?

'Cause you're the one who's
making me try so hard.

Bird-watching,
backgammon, darts,

assistant-managing a
peewee baseball team?

I just want --

I know.
You want people to like me.

You know what?
I'm a likable guy.

I always have been. I may not be the
smartest guy or the toughest guy,

but I'm the guy
that people like.

You are?

And you know why people in
Stars Hollow are gonna like me?

Why?

Because I love you.

And I'm gonna be here,
loving you.

- You are?
- You bet.

You know, when you're a farmer,

you got to be there
for your crops.

It's not about the
seeds or the soil.

It's about being there,
being committed,

all day, every day, forever.

- Farmer, huh?
- Why not?

You know what, Mr.
"Doesn't seem like he knows

what he's talking about but
is actually pretty wise"?

What's that, Mrs. "Goes through 500
emotions every hour of the day"?

I love you a lot.

Yeah, you're okay, too.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- April's not here.
- I know.

She's sleeping at
Gabrielle Wilder's tonight.

So, what's up?

I also know that Gabrielle
has a peanut allergy,

and before I drop her off,

I check that April isn't
packing a snickers bar.

I also know that she likes
Gabby's coin collection,

so I thought I might take her
over to a coin shop in Stamford,

'cause she'd like it.

What are you doing here, Luke?

You know, you're always telling me that
I can't do this with your daughter

and that I can't do that
with your daughter.

Well, she's not just
your daughter, Anna.

She's my daughter, too.

- Luke --
- No. No.

I know I wasn't around
for all those years.

But, you know,
that was your decision.

That was your choice, Anna.

And, frankly,
it was a damn lousy one.

Okay, I didn't get to see her
born or take her first steps

or take her to her first
day of school -- none of it.

And I can never get any of that back.
It's gone!

But that's not gonna happen anymore.
That, I can guarantee you.

- What are you saying?
- That she's my kid, all right?

She's our kid.
She's not just yours.

And I'm not gonna let
you treat me this way.

I'm her father.
God, why do I even have to say that?

I mean, April and I,
we have this relationship, okay?

A-And you can't
just decide things.

That's not how
this works, okay?

I mean, we have to make decisions
together, decisions about April.

And I will fight you.

I will fight you for that,
Anna, if I have to.

I have rights.

I'm her father,
and I have rights.
