In the hospital waiting room, Lorelai, Rory and Emily anxiously await word on Richard’s condition. When Logan hears what is happening, he borrows a helicopter to be by Rory’s side, but Lorelai is unable to reach Christopher, who is still angry over their fight the night before. Upset by Emily’s attempt to remain calm by dealing with her social calendar, Lorelai is relieved when Luke shows up unannounced and volunteers to run errands for Emily. Christopher finally arrives to be with Lorelai, but the scene at the hospital is more than he can take when he sees Lorelai talking to Luke.
Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)A revealing episode where the Lorelai/Christopher marriage takes another hit. Not great but still good. hide show
This is the aftermath episode, nothing ever seems to happen in these ones but at least it was entertaining. It was very interesting to see Luke and Logan rush to the Gilmore's side but Christopher was no where to be seen. This was extremely horrible on his part...but then luckily I think he just missed the calls somehow...however his reaction to Luke who had been nothing but nice was just plain wrong place, wrong time.
For gods sake Christopher your wife's father just had a heart attack...and you're bringing up a fight that shouldn't be relevant...very petty and immature. That annoyed me and probably lowered my score somewhat. What I did like was Emily and Lorelai bonding...the formers devastation was done really well.
I found the Logan/Rory stuff to be kind of boring...I never get the business talk.
Overall the episode wasn't that big...Emily was very funny and Luke showed what a nice guy is...Richard survived and will be fine...but that's really about it.
The entire episode takes place at the hospital because Richard had a heart attack. hide show
WTH is Chris doing not showing up at the hospital to support Lorelai? I just don't get it, it seems so out of character for him. When you love someone, it doesn't matter how angry you are, you are there for them when they need it. And Lorelai really needed him... When Chris' dad died, Lorelai was there for him. And when he finally shows up, he's angry because Luke is there!?! And Lorelai is just to weak to do anything about it, she doesn't really stand up to him, and just lets him be angry with her... Thank god Luke was there. This marriage is soooo over IMO...!
Great episode. One of the better ones this season. hide show
You know, sometimes I wonder why I hate Christopher. He is not really ugly, he can be funny at times and he and Lorelai have a certain connection. But then this episode came and it was like oh yeah that's why I can't stand you. You're selfish and when your wife needs you the most, you're not there for her. And it doesn't matter you had a big fight and you are sure that you where right (which he wasn't but that's a whole other story I'm not getting into right now.)you suck it up and you be there for her, like Logan was there for Rory. I'll admit I'm not a big fan of Logan but I liked him in this episode. So overall it was a great episode. But Christopher really has to stop pissing me of.
Richard's in the hospital, Luke and Logan are there, but where's Chris and why is Emily so crazy? hide show
Richard has a heart attack and goes to the hospital. Wait, wait, no, this is not season 1's 'Forgiveness and Stuff', this is season 7! Even tough a lot was different, it was kind of boring because, well, we've seen that.
Emily is just insane, worried about dinner reservations and Richard's will. Tough it did get a little too much, it was a great opportunity for us to see what an amazing actress Kelly Bishop is. She just mastered Emily's craziness with her worry for her husband. And her scene when she cries in front of Lorelai was just really great.
Even tough I hate Logan, I'll admit he was kind of sweet. Plus, we got to see Richard's study and that paiting of Rory reading they did so long ago!!! I missed that! =)
Luke was also really cute, he just loves Lorelai so much, it's adorable. But the end was really painful, with Chris getting there and seeing him and Lorelai talking. As much as I love Christopher, he should've been there for Lorelai, no matter what. He's her husband.
Not the best, not the worst. I'm not really excited for the next one, I don't want to see Lorelai and Christopher's end.
We've known it all along but, just in case you weren't sure, Chris is on his way out... hide show
I wanted Lorelei and Luke together. When the writers dragged out their romance and paired Lorelei with Chris, I did turn traitor and hoped they'd (L&C) be together. The scene where Luke tells Lorelei they just didn't fit made sense. Maybe they just didn't. Clearly, though, this relationship (taken way too far by the writers) has run its course. I don't care what you are arguing about...when your loved one is going through something as harrowing as this, you come! Bottom line! Logan was there, playing the part of the devoted boyfriend. Luke was there, doing his part (even though he shouldn't considering the treatment he's gotten from the senior Gilmores). Chris was nowhere to be seen and, when he does show up, it's only to broach an argument over Luke. Swallow it and argue later. Not in the hospital. Did the writers really need to villify him like this? Who knows? But, at this point, any L and C fans are probably shaking their heads, thinking, "Ok...back to L and L." As for the two, Emily behaved just as I'd expected. Keeping as busy as possible is a form of grieving. The final moment where she breaks down, as only Emily can, in the shop, and Lorelei is there for her...it's a sign of more bonding between the two to come.
