The opening sequence with their carefully coordinated breakfast routine (which centers around pop tarts, coffee and fashion, I see!) is adorable! It reminds me of a less healthy, but rather safer, version of that scene with Sookie cooking in the pilot!
Okay, whoever that French singer is singing, “God Only Knows,” I kind of like her, LOL!! I’m rewinding that scene so I can just listen to the music now instead of Lorelai’s rant about failure and 18-year-old know-it-alls.
*snicker* the chick who shot the skier. Okay, that helps. *eye-roll* Cause God knows I won’t be able to write down her name no matter how many times Rory says it.
Okay, so Lorelai’s rant about business school answers a question I always had: how come Lorelai didn’t go to Chilton? The academic environment in which Rory thrives would’ve driven Lorelai out of her head.
Good lord, Lorelai has great legs.
And I love how that confusing scene made so much sense and ended with Lorelai ditching her studies to try and gossip with Lane and Rory. *snort*
Watching Lorelai watching Jackson and Sookie’s nervous dialogue is very amusing! The way she tilts her head side to side as she observes them would’ve had me laughing, if the stammering conversation between that pair didn’t already have me in stitches!
Okay, as Sookie is ranting about the amorphous date, is she slathering meringue on toast? Because first of all, I didn’t even know one could make meringue without whipping it, and she was definitely just folding it earlier. Now she’s putting it on what looks like rye bread. I just might be ill!
Lorelai assumes cell phones are bought so that you can reach someone anytime you want, particularly to arrange dates. Sookie assumes they are for disaster prevention. Bwahahahahahaha! How much does that say about each character?
I think Sookie may hyperventilate before she asks Jackson out for real
Wow, did Rory ever set Dean up! He HAD to agree to the double date by the time she twisted that whole conversation around, LOL! And then: “So can we…?” “Kissing! Right! Let’s go.” *snicker* Not quite so shy now, is she?
Hehehe - Lorelai got locked into a double date on the same night as Rory. I sense the episode’s theme…which I probably would’ve figured out if I had checked the episode title earlier. Doh!
“I’m a sexual harasser!” “Well, then, you need some false eyelashes!” “I am now desperate, lonely, AND a criminal!” “Sit down, you have exhausted all your talking rights by being crazy.” *spews water*
I like Sookie’s makeup, but Lorelai’s eyeshadow is a bit loud for my tastes.
…Hmm, I’m not fond of Sookie’s hair like that. I don’t think it flatters her, honestly, and it’s kind of dressy for that casual outfit.
Okay, how on earth will Lorelai have a coat that fits Sookie in her house? Ahhh… a wrap. That works.
Oh, dear. Jackson ’s cousin… Ruin??...is a nut job. OMG: “I can’t believe you set me up with that! What, was the bearded lady busy tonight?” What an asshole!
Wow, this guy just gets worse and worse. “East German maid”…”Size 9? Wow!”…Geez!
Okay, Jackson and Sookie have a very hard time setting business aside, don’t they? Her with the fresh mussels, him with the mealy carrots…
How awesome that the movie that night is “Attack of the 50-Foot Woman.” Bwahahahaha! Rather apt given Lorelai’s setup!
Awww, Poor Lane! She’s having a hard time with that Todd guy. Obviously neither one of them has good dating skills. She’s so desperate for conversation she’s chattering on nonsensically without figuring out how to engage him in the conversation, and he’s being a bit of an idiot and clamming up while he roles his eyes.
Aww, bless his heart, Todd actually is an idiot! “If I major in gym, I only have to take 4 classes my senior year!”
Oh, dear. Sookie’s pulling a Lane as far as her chattering on and on without engaging Jackson in the conversation.
Aw, how awesome that Lorelai is there to talk Sookie down from her panic and get them out of that uptight restaurant! And I’m right about her hair, lol!
“Beethoven!” Oh, dear. Todd’s FAVORITE movie is Beethoven? *Palm-face*
Lorelai is asking Luke to explain to Ruin (Rune?) what she brings to a relationship. Oh, the look on Luke’s face!
Oh, yeah! Rune ran out! And Lorelai got to call him, “Loon!” Hehe! I loved that Sookie gathered up her nerve and told Jackson to stay! I honestly don’t think that I would’ve. If he was starting to get up, I would’ve felt hurt that he was ditching me and I wouldn’t have said a word. So good for Sookie!!
Awwww, so Lorelai’s double date is going to be with Luke!!!
“Gimme four!” “Gimme four more!” Bwahahaha! Lorelai’s card playing skills are just so her.
Okay, the problem with watching this episode this late at night, is that I find I can’t keep from speaking out loud and yelling things at the characters. The issue with that is that my hubby is trying to sleep while I watch with my headset. So when Lane’s mom just walked by and saw Lorelai, I started yelling warning’s at Lorelai. My hubby now thinks I’m nuts. Er, if he didn’t already know that.
Oookay, Luke was in the process of asking Lorelai out (and she knew it!) when Mrs. Kim burst in and had her melt down. What a rotten moment!
Okay, at least Todd thinks that Lorelai is a babe! Beats being called an East German maid!
“I have to know where you are at all times, especially when you have my shoes on!” Okay, no way is Rory a size 9. Also, that was an awesome line. Laying down the law, but doing it with humor.
“I pretended to be my mother and wouldn’t allow me to speak to him.” Okay, seriously. I can’t quit laughing. Poor trying-to-sleep-hubby!
Is that a bed pan or a warming pan on the table? *rewinds* Hmm… I think that’s a warming pan.
Lorelai handled that situation with Mrs. Kim very well. She let her rant (which Mrs. Kim probably needed to do to an adult) and she complimented her a lot, and she didn’t get mad when the common ground they established was rather insulting towards Lorelai. Very mature moment for her!
Okay, it’s interesting that this episode opened up with Sookie feeling all nervous because that date thing was just hanging out there, open-ended, between her and Jackson. And now Lorelai and Luke are in a similar, though less-secure, situation, since Lorelai never accepted Luke’s offer.
…aww!! He started to finish the request about a date, and instead turned into “…kick your ass in poker.” And they’re both relieved. I mean, Luke’s relieved he covered for himself and Lorelai seems relieved he dropped it. Awwwwwww!!!!
Hmm… a burger sounds good now. Especially since Luke’s burgers are apparently so good.
