Lorelai invites Rory over to dinner to tell her that she and Christopher got married in Paris. Rory pretends to be thrilled while Christopher is in the room, but later tells Lorelai how hurt and angry she really is. Logan surprises Rory with a visit and an announcement that he is relocating to New York to start his new internet company. Meanwhile, when April faces a medical emergency, a frantic Luke turns to Lorelai for help.
Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)Rory had every right to be mad at Lorelai...and the younger Gilmore girl stood out here. hide show
Yes I said it...Rory was the star of the episode. While Lorelai is becoming a different character who rushes into marriage with Christopher and thinks Rory will be okay with it...come on! I loved the dinner scene...you could tell that Rory wasn't happy but she hid it. Then she told Lorelai that she was mad...was glad about that.
I also liked the thing about Rory's article and how she judged people. I liked watching her and Logan, the fight was well done and I did like the 'screw you Logan' at the end. But I was glad when she realised that she was wrong...Lucy and Olivia are growing on me...slowly. I'm glad that she made up with both Lorelai and Logan...
I can't think of much else because not much else is going on...better than 'French Twist' but only because of Rory.
Like watching a different show...just some RIDICULOUS moments. hide show
This episode was marginally better than the ones that preceded it - mainly because of Rory and Logan. I thought their story line was interesting, well written and well acted. It was good to see a bit of conflict but also to see them resolve it. Luke's character is completely pointless, there is no Luke without Lorelai. His whole charm revolved around how the two of them interacted, him on his own (or with April) just does not produce strong enough drama. I actually quite liked how when he met up with Lorelai he happened to see her wedding ring and discover she was married. It was a nice subtle moment, unlike so much of what is going on this season! However I thought the way it built up to Luke calling her was PATHETIC. Things had been extremely awkward between the two of them and out of the blue he calls her up and they are so casual and breezy. He didn't even seem that desperate or stressed when he phoned her - it just came across so unrealistic - bad acting, bad directing...just bad all round.
Lorelai's character has just changed out of all recognition. Christopher is acting like a complete thoughtless idiot, yet she seems to be bowled over by his 'charms'. The new creative team are making a complete mess of it. The way the supporting characters, the different story lines, the comedy and the drama were interwoven before was so subtle you didn't realise how good it was. Now it is not being done so skillfully it sticks out like a sore thumb and seems like a complete botch job.
This episode really was different... I mean the story is changing quite a bit now. It is still a good story though. hide show
The thing that really chaned it all was the part were Lorelai gave that chance to Luke and he lost it i guess... The fact that she went with Chris that day changed everything. I always though that once she was with Luke she would stay with him. It was really strange the way Rory acted in front of them when in the end she did not feel okay. But in the end who blames her when she wanted to be part of her mum's wedding. Luke is being a great father... I really am enjoying how the story is turning. I guess it was something i never expected when Lorelai and Chris got married but it was part of the story. I want to see the reaction on Emily and Richard's face whn they find out about the wedding....
Just a little boring... Lorelai was weird, loved Rory, and Luke has got to stop calling April 'sweetie'. hide show
Well, seeing Lorelai and Christopher as a lovely married couple was my dream coming true, yet they both seemed extremely weird. Not weird like they were unhappy together, but as the actors were still not used to the fact that they were now 'married'. Especially weird since Lauren Graham and David Sutcliffe are always wonderful, together or apart. But anyway, I always love them.
The scene where they tell Rory about their elopment was a really good one. The story about the chapel in Giverny was adorable (I wish we had seen it!) and Rory's reaction was, well, I wouldn't expect nothing less from her. She had every right to be mad at her mom. But their talk about it at the end of the episode was sweet and I had missed them together, talking as the best friends they've always been.
Rory was just wow this episode. I loved her with her parents, I loved her at Logan's party with his friends, I loved her article, I loved her fight with Logan. I usually disagree with everything Logan does, but he was right this time, Rory isn't really that different from him, trust funds apart. It was a nice change, Rory was making me so mad these past episodes. Luke is totally adorable with April, but calling her 'sweetie' is too much. That's not Luke. That's not even a little close to little boy Luke. But his worries about her at a boy-girl party were so cute and with her at the hospital, it was like I couldn't imagine Luke not being a dad. Not my favorite, a little boring, but good enough.
Better than the last few episodes,I'd say hide show
When I started watching this I thought: Finally something not boring, finally some good dialogue that actually makes sense!
Unfortunately, as much as I like Luke, I hated that scene where he tells April she can't go to the party, I'm sorry if I offend anyone but GOD that was stupid!!! Couldn't they think of a better excuse to make him meet Lorelai and find out she was married?
About Rory... I was beginning to wonder where her backbone had gone... she's been acting so brainless lately, it was good to see that her witt has not gone to waste, loved the paper, and loved her argument with Logan.
Still, things are going very wrong in this show...
Where is Emily Gilmore??? Where is Sookie????? Where is the rest of the town???
And where is the Gilmore apetite???? Oh yeah, as someone as mentioned before: did they stop having coffee??!!
