Really liked this episode. Rory finally cracks under the pressure of the Dean situation, along with other things. I liked this storyline, it was interesting to watch. It was weird to see them both getting along well as always at the start, with another Luke and Lorelai hint in the 1 2 3 game. But then suddenly things change.
Max and Lorelai, we don't see much of them but there an okay couple. I can understand why max would dislike that Lorelai hasn't told anyone about them, but I was glad that another argument wasn't formed. The end was quite funny, Lorelai saying she'd ring everyone in her phone book and she actually started to.
The notes thing with Lane and Rory was funny, how she avoided Dean. but then Dean turns out to be Lanes science partner. I think Mrs Kim shouting at Dean was one of the funniest moments of the series, hilarious. I can understand why Lane wouldn't tell Rory but also get why Rory would be annoyed. Sadly for Lane, Rory walks in on them working on the science project.
Though it was entertaining, it was strange to see Lane and Rory fight, both scenes very well done, Rory storming out, Lane giving her coffee. Then the whole Rory distracted in class scene, enjoyable. Liked her comments at both Max and Paris. The fight she then had with Lorelai was very engrossing, some harsh comments here and there, very well done.
Lorelai's worry when she found Rory was missing was great, really added to the episode. Emily's delight that Rory had turned up was in character, she even seemed happy that Rory had, had a fight with Lorelai. Seeing her be nice to Rory, giving her all she needs was interesting.
Finally, Lorelai confronts Dean and finds out the truth about Rory's break up. Liked Lorelai talking to Rory at the end about saying 'I love you' Plus, Lane and Rory made up! Next, the 1st season finale!moreless

ADD TRIVIA-
When Lorelai is proposing different things they can do to cheer Rory up, she suggests they get Indian food. But in "There's the Rub", Rory is excited to have an evening to herself where she can order Indian food, which she doesn't get to do too often because Lorelei cannot stand the smell.
Possible Explanation: Because Lorelai is trying to cheer up Rory, it makes sense that she would want to do something that Rory really likes, like eat Indian Food, even if she, Lorelai, doesn't like it. Edit - In the beginning of the episode, Lane stops at the market on Wednesday. Dean was not there. The next day, Thursday, Rory stops at the market clearly stating it was not Wednesday. She runs away the same day (Thursday). Rory sleeps over Emily and Richard's house. The next day must be Friday, the day of the usual dinner. But, when Lorelai comes to pick Rory up, she states that she would see them tomorrow for dinner. The writers made a mistake with the days of the week. Edit
- If Sookie didn't know about Lorelai and Max being together again then wouldn't she have thought it was weird that he was there helping to look for Rory? Edit

- Lorelai: (to Luke) Just once, wouldn't it be nice not to be dressed like an extra from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers? Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is a musical about seven brothers who go into town and kidnap seven women to be their brides. It is based on the book: Sobbin' Women. The movie is set in the Oregon Territory in 1850 on the Pontipie homestead. All the brothers sport the plaid shirt fashion. Edit
- Lorelai: (trying to persuade Luke to try on a jacket) C'mon, just the jacket. Just once be too sexy for your shirt and do a little dance on the catwalk. This is a reference to Right Said Fred's song I'm Too Sexy. Edit
