OPEN AT LORELAI'S HOUSE
[The phone is ringing. Lorelai rushes down the steps to answer it, but the machine picks up before she can get it.]
LORELAI: [on answering machine] Hey, we're not in, so ah, bashed my thumb! Leave a message.
EMILY: I am so tired of this ridiculous machine. I get it every time I call. . .
LORELAI: Oh, that was close.
EMILY: You are Rory are always out. What is it that you do? Is your house that awful you can't be in it? It's too much excitement, if you ask me. . .
LORELAI: Well, what isn't in Emily's rules of conduct?
EMILY: I don't want to talk to a machine, I'll just call you later. [hangs up]
LORELAI: If you had your way, Mother, you'd lock us up like veal. That's what she wants, veal children.
[phone rings again]
LORELAI: [on answering machine] Hey, we're not in, so ah, bashed my thumb! Leave a message.
EMILY: It's me again. Listen. . .
LORELAI: You're talking into the machine.
EMILY: Don't forget that my DAR meeting is on Tuesday. Please. . .
LORELAI: It's b*rned into my brain. It's there forever.
EMILY: . . . it's at three o'clock and all the women are all extremely punctual.
LORELAI: When I'm senile and ga-ga and drooling into a cup, and yet I can't remember my name, I'll still remember that your DAR meeting is that Tuesday.
EMILY: . . . this Tuesday. I'll talk to you about some other things later. [hangs up]
LORELAI: I'm gonna have to be de-programmed by cult de-programmers to get that Tuesday out of my brain.
[phone rings again]
LORELAI: [on answering machine] Hey, we're not in, so ah, bashed my thumb! Leave a message.
EMILY: Your phone message is annoying. . .
LORELAI: Unbelievable.
EMILY: Do you know how annoying it is?
LORELAI: I think I have a standard against which to measure it.
EMILY: . . .to it yourself. Have you heard it lately?
LORELAI: I can't because I'm amputating my ears.
EMILY: . . .and that thumb bashing thing, is that a joke? Why is it that your jokes are always. . .
LORELAI: Ah, an earless world, what a dream!

CUT TO INDEPENDENCE INN
[In the dining room, Emily is sitting at a table tasting soups as Lorelai and Sookie stand by watching.]
LORELAI: Haven't you already tasted that one, Mom?
EMILY: Mm.
