FAN RECAP

Lorelai is devastated about breaking up with Luke and Rory asks Logan to hang out. A brilliant continuation of the previous episode, sad as well.

NO! I can't believe that duo Emily and Christopher have broken them up, it is so stupid. It was sad to see Lorelai so upset, crying on the bed, not wanting to get up. Also she was desperate begging Luke to let her talk to him. But annoyingly Luke tells her he can't be with her because its too much. Taylor was an ass for giving around those ribbons, talk about rubbing it in someone's nose.

I was glad to see Rory shout at Taylor, doing the right thing. She also had an awkward moment with Luke. The end was sad, Luke rushes to Lorelai's house after he gets a message from her (Shows how much he cares) and it ends up with them making the break-up official, an upset Lorelai tells him she accepts and walks inside. I really hope they get back together, sooner rather than later,

Rory was great here, coming to Lorelai's aid brining everything she needed. Her story was really about her and Logan. I liked the advice scene, where Paris pulled two girls a side and asked for dating advice. I think Logan and Rory are good together, how he calls her 'Ace'. She asks him to hang out but it turns out to be a poker game, Logan lets her borrow his limo to go to Lorelai.

Plus he tells her she's going away, she tells him she wanted to be alone with him. They end up kissing. Sigh..... I wish they didn't break-up but it was still an excellent episode. My only complaint would be that I wanted there to be a Lorelai/Emily confrontation, because Emily is evil and deserves everything she gets, I can't wait to see that.moreless

Luke and Lorelei break up, and Rory and Logan hang out

9.6

By leo23dc, Apr 04, 2008

This was a heart-wrenching episode where Luke tells Loreleo he just can't handle "all this" and Lorelei begs Luke to give her another chance. But they are broken up and Lorelei takes to her bed. Rory calls Logan and asks if they can just "hang out" and Logan says to come over, but when Rory gets there she finds Logan in the middle of a poker game. She says the only thing she knows about poker is from "The Odd Couple". She falls asleep on the couch only to get a call from Sookie that her mother is in trouble. She doesn't have her car becuase it's at the dealer's being repaired. Logan comes to the rescue offering her his car and driver, Frank. She rushes over to her mother's house where she finds Lorelie very depressed and in bed. She finds out from Lorelie that Luke "is gone" but tries to reassure her that this is just a bump on the road of their relationship. She uses Frank to get comford food for her mother. Lane helps with this. Lauren Graham does a great job of acting out heartbreak. A true series classic.moreless

Amazing episode, kind of sad...

10

By karatiz, Jan 03, 2008

After that scene Lorelai went after Luke.

Luke just disappeared and looks like everyone is worried, Babette and Morey were all "Oh-oh" to everything she said. Finally she got lucky per say, she run into Kirk and he told her Luke was at the movies. This was the beginning of the end, ever since Emily went to visit Chris. She is the reason of everything that happened.

Paris taking advices from Janet and Althea was fun, then it's Rory time... Poor Logan, not one but three adults yelled at him when he was with Rory, two of them almost hit him, that must had been bad lol

The next day after the "wedding" the whole town was divided, pink ribbons for Lorelai and blue for Luke. And Luke saying that at Doose's, that he could be in that relationship...

Rory calls Logan to hang out but it backfired, they were playing poker...

Lorelai had planed a birthday party at the Inn but Sookie can't find her. Rory fell asleep at Logan's poker game and the next day she gets a call from Sookie asking her to came home. Lorelai is really down, she never got like that before, that dream of hers was weird, was bad.

Logan was sweet to give Rory is car and driver, Frank. She used it to get some things for Lorelai. Rory stepping up like that was good, she defended her mother, that Taylor is a jerk.

My favorite scene is the one when Lorelai calls Luke, almost at the end. They broke up, he couldn't be in the relationship like that and she was heartbroken. First of all they are friends, best friends and she need her best friend by her side to help her. It's an important scene, the fact that she begs him to come over and be with her. And of course she regrets it the second after, she even runs to the diner and steals the tape from the recording machine.

When she gets home Luke is there, he ran over there just by hearing her message. He was really worried about her.moreless

Beautiful Episode. Wonderfully acted. Very spoilerish

9.5

By music_gurl411, May 15, 2007

Great Episode. Really cool to see the reversal of roles with Rory and Lorelai. And Rory freaking out on Taylor and then in the limo was tré cool as well. Seeing Rory and Logan's relationship really start to develop was cool. Logan jumping to the rescue to "save" Rory was sweet. You see a great example of Lauren Graham's acting in this episode. And the ending is amazing. With Lorelai calling Luke and then realizing she didn't want to be "that" girl who can't let go. So overall I give it a defenite 9.5 out of 10. This episode is total classic.moreless

I could kill Christopher!

7.0

By SMGslayer97, May 12, 2007

I could kill Christopher! I could kill him! I mean not only did he break Lorelai's heart back when Sherry showed up pregnant in season 2 but he aligned himself with the beast, aka Emily, and totally ambushed Lorelai at Richard and Emily's wedding. And now he managed to break up Lorelai and Luke! I could kill him, I could hit him over the head with a shovel bury him twenty feet underground and plant daisies above him. I could kill! And poor Lorelai, I mean you can not blame Luke for getting so scared off the way he did and for being so very angry on an epic level, neither he or Lorelai are to blame as they were both working on the issue of Christopher kind of decently with one another. But Emily and Christopher, sticking their noses in Luke and Lorelai's business like that. I could kill them both in fact. You just feel so terrible for both Luke and Lorelai in this episode, Lorelai's crying will break your heart.moreless

  EDIT SHARE
- When Lorelai and Luke are watching the film in the Black, White and Read movie theatre, she says "Man. They sure talked fast in these things." - This could be a tongue in cheek reference to the fact that Gilmore Girls is famous for it's speedy delivery of dialogue.
  EDIT SHARE
- In this episode, Lorelai goes to the diner and has a conversation with Luke's cook, Caesar. In this episode and future episodes, Caesar is a short, kind of squat guy but in the 2nd episode, "A-Tisket, A-Tasket", Lorelai runs into the diner in a frenzy looking for Luke there is a different Caesar who is taller and skinnier.

In the first scene where Rory comes in and sits down next to Logan the skis are right beside the door frame, on the left.

Later on when she visits Logan to "return" Frank the skis have moved again, now about a foot to the left, next to a cabinet.
  EDIT SHARE
- When Rory first gets home to comfort Lorelai and goes and lays on the bed with her, Rory's hair is down on both sides of her face, but when the shot switches to Lorelai, and back to Rory, the left side of her hair is brushed behind her shoulder, without her having moved her hand to brush it this way.
  EDIT SHARE

- Lorelai: I'm so sorry, Luke. I will never do this to you ever again. I am absolutely humiliated. I was hurting, and I knew if I called you you'd come. I never should have done that.
  Luke: It's okay.
  Lorelai: No, it's not okay. It's not okay. I am not that girl. I am not the one who cries and falls apart and calls her ex-boyfriend to come and save her. Thank you so much for coming, and for breaking my door. You're an

  EDIT SHARE
- Lorelai: Hey, Luke, it's me. I know I'm not supposed to be calling, but I am not doing really great right now, and… I was just wondering if, do you remember in 'The Way We Were', how Katie and Hubbell broke up because his friends were joking and laughing, and the president had just died, and she yelled at them and he was mad and he was going out to Hollywood, and, I mean, which she hated, and he broke up with her and she was really upset. And she called him and asked him if he would come over and sit with her because he was her best friend and she needed her best friend, and he did. And they talked all night, and they went out to Hollywood, which was a disaster, but it was good at first. With the boat, and uh, putting the books
  away. I've seen this movie a lot, so if you don't remember the putting the books away scene, don't feel stupid or anything. I was just sitting here thinking about it, because I, um, I'm in my house, and I was just, uh… Could - please come over. I - please. Really need to see you and talk to you, and please - come over. Please. Come – Oh, my God.
