Delilah was heading to the bakery when she realized that Lorelai and Rory were following her. "What are you guys doing?"
"Coming with you to work," Lorelai said. "Instead of 'Bring Your Kids to Work' Day, think of it as 'Bring Your Mom & Sister to Work' Day."
Delilah asked, "What are you guys really planning?"
"We just want to taste test wedding cakes," Rory said.
"Sookie's making one for free and I do not approve because you're just taking advantage of Fran's kindness, since you're not going to buy any cakes from there," Delilah pointed out. "I don't like it."
"Don't be so grumpy," Lorelai told her. "Besides, I might even change my mind."
Delilah laughed at that. "Yeah, you'll change your mind when pigs fly."
Needless to say, Lorelai and Rory ended up eating cakes at the bar counter in the bakery, while Fran was happy to bring out cakes for them.
Lorelai said, "Oh my god, here!"
"Wow," Rory replied.
Lorelai said, "With a crunch and a zing a hmm hmm hmm, hello!"
Rory said, "Okay, our house is burning down, and you can save the cake or me and Lila. What do you choose?"
"Well that's not fair," Lorelai said. "The cake doesn't have legs."
Fran came from the back, "So, how are we coming here?"
"Oh, Fran, so good," said Lorelai. "This cake is amazing."
"Beyond amazing," Rory added.
"Well, I should hope so. We've been doing this for about one-hundred-twelve years," Fran said.
"Huh, well, you don't look a day over a hundred-and-six," Lorelai told her.
"Mom," Delilah said, bringing a cake out.
"I meant my family's been doing it for that long," Fran said.
"Right, okay, well, I'm glad we got that cleared up," Lorelai stated.
Rory tried the raspberry cake and started flailing. "The raspberry, the raspberry, the raspberry!"
Fran asked, "So, when is the big day again?"
"Two weeks from tomorrow," Lorelai said.
Fran asked, "Have you picked a flavor?"
"Oh, I don't know," Lorelai said. "They're all so good."
Delilah knew that was code for, 'Sorry, I have Sookie making it for me for free.' So, she was irritated with the whole situation. Eli was cringing every time Delilah looked at him. He didn't like it any better than she did.
"Well, you have to try them again," Fran continued saying.
"Oh, no," Lorelai said in a false 'I can't, but I really do' voice. "I've already eaten so many."
"This is a very crucial decision, young lady. Cake is the glue of the wedding, so you will stand here and eat until you decide," Fran told them.
"Okay, if you insist," Lorelai said.
"I do," Fran said. "After all, what's more important than your wedding day?"
"Well, it ain't Guy Fawkes Day," Lorelai quipped.
"Yeah, well, I'll just go and see if there's anything else in the back," Fran stated, leaving.
Delilah and Eli went to go look at the wedding taste test cakes.
"Looks like we gave them all we had," Fran said.
Delilah looked at the shelves in the fridge. "We have the mocha crunch cream." She took it out and handed it to Fran.
Fran called out, "I'm bringing out a mocha crunch cream!"
Delilah looked at Eli really irritated. Eli just looked apologetic. He wasn't too thrilled with what Lorelai and Rory were doing either.
Instead of going home, she went to Samantha's house where Matt was too. They listened as she ranted and raved about the whole cake situation and they watched a few horror movies together, drinking some wine, before she decided to head home.
When she got home, she met Rory along the way to the kitchen.
Rory asked, "Do you smell something weird?"
Delilah nodded, "Yeah."
They went into the kitchen.
Rory asked, "What's that weird smell?"
"It's food!" Lorelai stated, sitting at the table, watching Max.
Max asked, "It smells weird?"
"No, just weird for this house," Rory explained. "It smells great."
Max asked, "Rory, Lila, can either of you get that?" He motioned to the broiler with his hand as he put a dish of food on the table.
Rory asked, "What?"
"Uh, right down there," Max said, "Uh, shiny handle."
Delilah opened the broiler to see what looked like garlic bread in there.
Lorelai gasped, "Did you know we had that?"
"Not a clue," Rory replied.
"I knew," Delilah stated, bewildered by the idea that they didn't know a broiler existed.
"Hey, it's on fire," Lorelai pointed out.
"It's called a broiler," Delilah stated.
"Wow," Rory said.
Max looked at Delilah, "What fallout shelter have those two been living in?"
"Sometimes I wonder the same thing," Delilah joked.
"He has much knowledge," Rory told Lorelai.
"We shall from a cult around him," Lorelai stated.
"Build a statue many stories high," Rory added.
"We shall grow our hair long and stop bathing," Lorelai said.
"Please don't do any of that," Max told them.
Rory asked, "Are we eating at the table?"
"Wherever you want," Max told them.
Lorelai said, "TV?"
"I'll get a tape," Rory said.
Lorelai asked, "Can I at least grab some dishes?"
"Far away from me," Max stated.
Lorelai said, "Alarmist."
They took their food and made their way to the living room.
Lorelai and Rory chose to sit on the floor, while Max and Delilah sat on the couch, to watch the movie that Rory picked out. She wasn't surprised that Rory put on Billy Jack.
She loved her family, she did, but sometimes it was annoying re-watching the same movies to the point where it seems like they could start quoting the entire movie by heart.
"You don't learn very fast...Injun," the man on the TV said.
Lorelai asked, "How fast do you learn Billy Jack?"
"Fast enough," the man replied.
Rory started speaking, "Billy Jack, I'm gonna kill you if it's the last thing I do."
Lorelai groaned, "He so jinxed himself with that one."
"Yeah, he should've said, 'Billy Jack, I'm gonna kill you or buy myself a lovely chenille sweater," Rory said.
"Ooh, yeah, either way, he wins," Lorelai said.
Max asked, "How many times have you seen this movie?"
"Way to many times," Delilah said.
"Yeah, I'm out of digits," Lorelai chimed in.
"You can't see a Billy Jack movie too many times," Rory stated.
Max started asking, "Who's the guy Billy Jack's..."
Lorelai shushed him.
"All right you cats...very slowly now," the man on the TV said.
"Let's do some jumping jacks," Lorelai stated.
"Spread out," the man on the TV ordered. "One—"
"Oh, it's the counting part," Rory stated.
"He means it, Daniel," a man said. "Two."
"Ooh, here comes my favorite and my least favorite line all rolled into one," Lorelai said.
"I'm gonna cut your bowels out," the man stated.
Lorelai made gagging sounds while Rory said, "Ahh, yuck!"
"I've heard worse from the movie Full Metal Jacket," Delilah told Max. "Matt wanted to watch it. The bathroom scene haunts me a little."
Max asked, "What was the bathroom scene?"
"It's best if you don't know," Delilah told him, remembering the scene.
"Hey, hey, be quiet, we're missing the good parts," Lorelai told her.
"You talk throughout the whole movie, and when Lila and I say something, you're shushing us," Max defended himself.
"That's because you two are talking through parts that we talked through last time, so we haven't seen those parts in a while," Lorelai responded.
"Ah, well, now it's clear," Max responded.
The phone rang.
Lorelai stated, "Max?"
"What?" Max asked, "The phone?"
"Whoever's closest answers," Lorelai said.
"House rule," Rory told him.
"You're both closer," Max stated.
Lorelai pointed out, "Oh, but I'd have to walk around the coffee table so my path would be farther."
"And my foot's asleep," Rory stated.
"Plus you're taller," Lorelai added.
"With longer legs," Rory continued.
"You'd get to the phone faster if we all got up to get it," Delilah pointed out.
"Exactly," Lorelai stated.
"I got it," Max told them, getting up to answer the phone.
"I'm gonna like having him around," Lorelai said.
"Poor, Max. He has to do all your evil-bidding," Delilah joked.
"I know," Lorelai replied a evil grin.
Delilah went off to bed and was rudely shaken awake by her mother. Delilah groaned, "What?"
"You know, I never asked how you felt having Max moving in," Lorelai said.
"It's fine," Delilah said. "If I had a problem, I'll let you know."
"Well, you've been crabby since Max proposed," Lorelai told her.
"That's because I think the whole thing is a little weird and I'm mad you took advantage of Fran's kindness to eat free cake for breakfast, when Sookie was going to make one for free," Delilah said.
"How do you feel about him moving in? I know it's going to be life altering and nothing's going to be the same," Lorelai said.
"I think you're the one bothered with this," Delilah countered. "Shouldn't you be in bed?"
"I have a boy in my room," Lorelai said.
"He's a grown man," Delilah said. "Go bother Rory. I have to go to Fran's bakery in the morning and I don't think they'll appreciate me face-planting in the batter because my mother decided to project her issues onto me at one in the morning." She pulled her blanket over her head as she rolled over, facing away from her mother.
According to Francine, it turned out that Doose was putting in a traffic light and metered crosswalk."
Eli asked, "Shouldn't the mayor have approved of the traffic light and crosswalk?"
"Yeah, but I wouldn't put it past Doose into annoying Mayor Porter into submission," Delilah pointed out.
"I wouldn't put it past Doose into doing it regardless of what Mayor Porter said," Marjorie stated
"He's putting the traffic light in front of Luke's Diner," Francine added.
"Oh, he's trying to annoy Luke into moving his diner, I assume," Eli said.
Delilah nodded, "Definitely. That sounds like Taylor."
Eli asked, "How come Doose hates Luke?"
"Luke stands his ground when it comes to Taylor. Taylor is more of the whole 'my way or get the hell out'," Francine said. "To be fair, he does do some good and he cares about the town. He's just so insufferable about things."
After dinner that night, they walked along the sidewalk. Dean had gone with Rory.
"Ugh, I can barely walk," Max said.
Delilah looked at Max's shoes, "You wore shoes that weren't meant for walking?"
Lorelai agreed, "Yeah, bad shoes?"
"I ate a cow," Max said.
"You had a steak," Lorelai pointed out.
"Plus the sides," Max corrected, "Five people, eight baked potatoes. "
"Uh, you always exaggerate," Lorelai told him.
To Dean, Max asked, "Am I exaggerating?"
"Nope," Dean replied.
Rory said, "Ooh, ice cream!" She took off running.
"Ooh, Lila and I are right behind you!" Lorelai called after Rory, taking off after her.
Delilah sighed and went after them, feeling like she had to get some ice cream too.
She got some black cherry ice-cream, but instead of getting a cone, she got a bowl. Lorelai got Max chocolate chip, while Rory got Dean a cone.
They ate their ice cream on the way home.
As they got up the porch, Lorelai groaned, "I'm so full. Why'd you let me eat so much?"
"Yeah, they'll blame you," Dean told Max.
Lorelai headed inside.
Delilah had no clue what that meant. "What does that mean?"
"Nothing," Dean told her.
"It's past eleven, guys," Max told them, going inside.
"Okay," Rory replied.
Delilah rolled her eyes and went inside to go to her room.
Delilah stood outside a nightclub with Lorelai, Samantha, Sookie, Rory, Miss Patty, and Michel.
"Oh, this place looks like fun!" Miss Patty declared.
"They're never gonna let me in," Rory whined.
"They will let you in," Lorelai told her.
"This is a felony, you know, corrupting minors. We'll all end up in the bookie," Michel said.
Samantha asked, "Who invited the Debbie downer?"
Michel retorted, "Who invited the blonde with the attitude problem?"
"I'll bite you," Samantha told him.
"Please stop arguing," Lorelai said. "You'll get us all thrown in the back of the line."
"Just try to look older," Sookie said.
Rory took a hold of Delilah's arm and asked, "How?"
"Look like you're thinking about retirement or 401Ks and stuff," Sookie stated.
"Yes, you should've brought your fakes beards and mustaches," Michel said.
"Yeah, I agree with Sam," Lorelai said. "Who invited Mister Schnicklfritz?"
"He heard us planning and wanted to come," Sookie said.
"I did not know the evening included babysitting," Michel said.
Lorelai said, "They're going to get in." Her cell phone rang. "Sorry." With a smile, she answered it. "Hey!" There was a reply of some sort, "What? Why?" Max had replied with something. "Oh my god, what happened?" Max replied with something again. "Why did he do that?" Max replied. "Poor Jan." He replied. "Ugh. Ouch. How drunk was he?" There was a reply. "Huh." There was a reply of some kind. "What is he saying?" Another reply of some sort, "All right, well, take him home, and then go hit a strip club?"
Samantha said, "What?"
"I am telling you, this is your last chance to look at another woman's breastage," Lorelai said. She hung up after what sounded like Max replied to it.
"You could've gone with boobage," Samantha said.
"Or cleavage," Delilah said.
"Okay, new rule for the evening. No call to fiancés or boyfriends or anything else like that." Sookie stated, "Its girls' night out." She pointed at her coworker, "Plus Michel."
They finally reached the club entrance, and the bouncer said, "Its twelve bucks." He looked at the three girls, "And it's eighteen and over."
"Oh, they're eighteen," Sookie said.
Rory nodded, "That's right. Last week for me and Lila. So it's a new eighteen, but it's eighteen, yup."
"I celebrated my eighteenth birthday last month," Samantha said.
The bouncer asked, "You got some ID?"
"Hey, uh, sir, make way for Rory, Lila, and Sam. That's their names. And their only name. Rory, Lila, and Sam. Single name, they're that important. Rory is internationally known international supermodel and sometimes spokesperson for international products. Lila and Sam are international known singers and sometimes models in a girl group."
"Rory's very big in Germany," Sookie said.
"We're very big in Japan," Sam added. "We can't get out of Japan that much."
"Yah, yah, with the lederhosen and such," Lorelai said.
"Twelve bucks," the bouncer said with a grin.
"Thank you," Lorelai said. She rushed the three teens into the club.
"Lederhosen are for men," Sam hissed at Lorelai. "Dirndls are what women wear. And that is for Oktoberfest."
Lorelai asked the blonde, "How do you know that?"
"I've been looking into fashion from other countries," Samantha said.
"Well you got in," Lorelai said.
"The power of being white," Samantha grumbled.
A man wearing what looked to be a Marilyn Monroe outfit walked by carrying a tray.
"This is a drag club," Michel pointed out.
"It's called the Queen Victoria," Sookie told him. "What did you expect? Tea and crumpets?"
"Aw, you guys, I guess we're gonna have to stand."
Sookie pointed, "Wait, that one looks open."
"Oh," Lorelai said.
They walked towards the table to where Emily was sitting.
"Oh my god," Lorelai said. "What in Lucifier's reach is my mother doing here?"
"Oh, I invited her," Michel said.
Lorelai asked, "You what?"
"Just a little surprise for you," Michel said, "I thought it would be a kick."
"I like your attitude, Frenchie," Samantha told him with a smile.
"Don't call me Frenchie," Michel told her.
Lorelai dragged Rory, who dragged Delilah towards the table. Lorelai stated, "Excuse me sir, you look just like my mother."
Rory kissed Emily on the cheek, "Hi Grandma. Come here often?"
"I should say not," Emily said. "How did you get in?"
Rory explained, "Oh, apparently I'm an internationally known supermodel, while Lila and Samantha are internationally known singers in a girl group who supermodel sometimes." She sat down next to Lorelai. They started taking some seats, although Samantha had to sit on Delilah's lap, since there weren't other seats.
Emily nodded and looked at Lorelai, "Happy bacherlorette party, Lorelai."
Lorelai said, "Thank you, Mother,."
Emily said, "And in the future, when you plan one of these thing, and you tell a person to show up at eight o'clock, it is considered good manners for you to also show up at eight o'clock."
"Well, I didn't exactly invite you mother, Michel did," Lorelai told her.
"Ah, well, I feel much better now," Emily stated.
"Huh, let's drink," Lorelai stated.
"Looks like Emily's gotten a head start," Miss Patty said. To Emily, she asked, "What are you drinking, honey?"
"Manhattan. Good too. Not too sweet. I ordered it from that nice fellow dressed as Joan Crawford," Emily said.
"So, is there no dancing here? I was hoping there'd be dancing," Michel said, sitting next to Sookie.
Sookie patted him on the shoulder, "You need to strut Tony Minero?"
"It is a weekend and on the weekend I like to move, and the ladies, they like it too," Michel sated.
"Especially when you move out of town," Lorelai said. "Ba zing!"
A nice man who looked like Joan Jett came over with a chair for Samantha.
The blonde was rather comfortable sitting on Delilah's lap, but moved to the chair because it seemed like the nice thing to do.
Emily asked, "Has she eaten?"
"Yeah," Sookie said, "About a quart of wine."
A man dressed like Mae West came up to them.
"Hmm, hi Mae West," Lorelai greeted.
Mae asked, "What can I get for you?
"My dignity back," Michel told him.
Lorelai said, "We'll have a rum and coke, a margarita no salt, martini with olives, three Shirley Temples..."
"Love her!" Mae stated.
"I'll have her on the rocks please," Rory stated.
"I want a cosmopolitan," Delilah said quickly.
"Me too," Samantha added.
"One Shirley Temple, two cosmopolitans, and, uh, I will have giant Long Island iced tea," Lorelai told Mae.
"Coming up," Mae took off.
Emily asked, "So, Lorelai, how are you feeling?"
Lorelai replied, "Um, well, I'm tipsy, but just short of seeing pink elephants."
Emily said, "No, I mean about you getting married. It's only a week away."
Lorelai replied, "I'm fine. Everything's fine. I figured once I got the shoes to match the dress, the rest was just gravy."
Emily stated, "I must say, I admire your composure. The week before my wedding, I was a wreck.
Miss Patty added, "So was I, before all of mine."
Sookie asked, "How many was that?"
Miss Patty rattled off, "Well, uh, there was Sinjin, John, Sergio, Sinjin. Three men, four times."
Sookie asked, "Do you regret any of them?"
"Well, Sinjin was a let down the second time, but he was my Burton and I was his Taylor. Just wish I could've found a little Mike Todd there in the middle," Miss Patty said.
"You know, I can't believe it was thirty-four years ago that I married Richard. I remember it so distinctly," Emily said.
"Ooh, this gonna be a romantic story," Sookie said.
Emily explained, "My stomach was not my friend. It was full of butterflies; I couldn't eat a bite the whole week."
Lorelai said, "Hmm, what a bummer."
Emily continued, "I was actually weak in the knees. Trembling all the time, can you imagine?"
Rory asked, "Really?"
Emily continued with her story, "When I wasn't actually with Richard, I was thinking about him. Constantly. Imagining what he was doing, was he thinking about me? Making up little scenarios in my head about how we'd run into each other accidentally at the club. And he would be playing golf and I would walk by and he would be so distracted that he'd completely miss the ball. Silly."
"Not really," Samantha said.
Sookie nodded, "It's sweet."
Emily said, "I was in love." She took a drink from her Manhattan.
Michel agreed, "It is wonderful to be in love."
Lorelai started eating some snack food that was on the table. Someone handed her the Long Island tea and she took a drink.
Delilah asked, "Is that any good?"
Emily was talking about her wedding and Lorelai passed it to Delilah, "Just a sip."
Delilah took a drink of Long Island tea. It wasn't surprising that it tasted like tea. She passed it back to Lorelai when hers and Samantha's cosmopolitans arrived. Delilah took a drink from the glass.
Emily said, "But the thing I remember most was that for the entire week before my wedding, I'd wait 'til my mother went to sleep, and I'd sneak out of bed and I'd put on my wedding dress and my tiara and my gloves, and I would stare at myself in the mirror and think how very safe I felt. How very right and wise and honored." She picked up her glass, "This is a very good drink. I highly recommend it."
Lorelai looked at Delilah and joked, "Is that any good?"
Delilah passed the glass to Lorelai, "Just a sip."
Lorelai took a drink as Sookie took her phone out of her bag, "Okay, I have got to make a call."
With a grin, Miss Patty asked, "Are you calling Jackson?"
Lorelai passed the drink back to Delilah.
Sookie had her cell phone to her ear. She said, "No. Well...yes, but it's only because I need to pick up something I left at his house, that if it's still there, I should – hi honey, it's me." She left the table.
To Rory who had her pager out, Emily asked, "And who are you writing to?"
Rory replied, "I just want to see if Dean's around."
Emily asked, "And thinking about you?" Rory blushed.
Delilah looked at Miss Patty, "You married those three guys four times?"
"Yeah, but that's a story for a different time," Miss Patty said. Lorelai got her phone out and Miss Patty grinned, "Ooh, no, not you too."
Lorelai said, "No, it's just...it's...I'll be quick." She walked away from the table.
"I have to shake my thing," Michel said.
"I hope you're talking about your ass," Samantha told him. Michel left the table.
Emily asked, "What about you two? Don't you want to see if Matt is thinking about either of you?"
"Oh, we know he is," Samantha said. "I don't need to confirm it." She put her arm around Delilah's shoulder, "And I know my lady here is thinking about me." She kissed Delilah on the cheek.
Emily asked, "Lila?"
"I hope he's having nice thoughts of us," Delilah said, taking a drink out of her cosmopolitan.
Sookie returned and a moment later, Lorelai returned, "Hey."
"Hey," Rory replied.
Lorelai asked, "Michel leave?"
"Nope. He said he had to shake his thing," Sookie said, taking the olive out of her martini. "So how's your guy?" Lorelai hummed, "How's Max doing?"
"Fine. Fine, everything's just fine," Lorelai replied, taking a drink from her Long Island tea.
To Delilah, it didn't sound like everything was 'just fine'.
Rory, Lorelai, and Delilah were in the kitchen. Lorelai was paying bills and Delilah was looking through the fridge.
"I can't believe school's already starting," Rory stated.
Lorelai groaned, "I used to hate school starting. I once flipped the pages back in a calendar my mom kept in the kitchen and tried to convince her it was June and not September."
Rory asked, "Didn't work?"
Lorelai hummed, "Oddly enough."
"I wonder why," Delilah stated.
"Lila and I got an interesting call today," Rory said, sitting at the table.
Lorelai asked, in a teasing manner, "Oh, yeah, who?"
"Dad," Rory stated.
"Cool," Lorelai said. "How is he? I – I – I talked to him last night."
"He did say that," Delilah said.
"Yeah, I was about to mention it myself," Lorelai told them.
"That is quite a coincidence," Rory said.
"Yeah," Lorelai said. "Did I not mention it last night?"
"No," Delilah replied.
"I could've sworn I did," Lorelai said.
"You didn't," Delilah said.
Rory asked, "Why'd you call him?"
"Oh, just to check in," Lorelai replied.
Delilah asked, "Why would you call him at your bachelorette party?"
"It seemed as good a time as any," Lorelai said.
Rory asked, "You catch up on calls?"
"Yeah, pretty much," Lorelai replied.
"Seems like a weird time," Rory replied.
Lorelai asked, "Did he call just to fink on me?"
Rory said, "No. He wanted to see what's up with you. He thought it was weird too."
Lorelai stated, "Heaven forbid I ever use the phone again."
Rory asked, "Was it when you told us you were calling Max?"
Lorelai replied, "Somewhere around there."
Rory asked, "Why would you tell us you were calling Max?"
Lorelai stated, "Honey, someday when you're a little older you will be introduced to something that is extremely seductive but fickle. A fair-weather friend who seems benign but packs a wallop like a donkey kick, and that is the Long Island iced tea. The Long Island iced tea makes you do things that you normally wouldn't do, like lifting your skirt in public or calling someone you normally wouldn't call at really weird times."
Rory stated, "I'm not looking forward to meeting the Long Island iced tea."
Lorelai told her, "I'd definitely walk the other way."
Rory said, "You know, Dad wants you to be happy."
Lorelai said, "I know."
Rory said, "And I really want you to be happy."
Lorelai replied, "I know, sweetie."
Rory asked, "You are happy about all this, aren't you?"
Lorelai asked, "Don't I seem happy?"
"I guess," Rory stated.
"No," Delilah said.
Lorelai looked at her, "What do you mean by that?"
"You came into my room in the middle of the night to bother me about my feelings about Max sleeping in your bed. Then you slept in Rory's bed," Delilah pointed out. "And last night, when you said everything is fine, you sounded like everything wasn't fine."
"I'll be in my room if either of you need me," Rory said, taking off.
Lorelai looked at Delilah, "Honey, it's just pre-wedding jitters."
"It doesn't sound like it to me," Delilah said. "It sounds like you don't want to marry Max and that's fine. It doesn't bother me; even though I wished you and Max didn't rush into this whole thing, which I assume that's why people wait a few years to get married. It's why I was so crabby, because from the way you were acting, I assumed that not even you want to marry him." She went to her room feeling better getting all of that off her chest.
Rory barged into Delilah's room, who was at her desk, looking through a recipe book.
Rory yelled at her, "Pack!"
Delilah was confused, "What?"
Rory went to Delilah's bed and slid the light pink wooden foot locker out from underneath the bed.
Rory tried to open it, "Mom said to pack everything because traveling light is for girls! Why won't this open?"
"I have the key because it has a padlock on it," Delilah said confused. "Why are we packing? I thought Max was living with us!"
"Mom doesn't want to marry him!" Rory said, opening Delilah's closet and started tossing clothes onto Delilah's bed. "Pack! Hurry!"
Delilah got a rolling suitcase and started tossing her clothes in it.
"Light layers," Rory said. "We're leaving at five in the morning."
"I should leave a voicemail for Max," Delilah said.
Rory asked, "Do you want me to pack all those leatherbound books while you do that?"
"Yeah," Delilah said.
Rory started putting the books in, "Ooh. This one is pretty."
"Rory," Delilah started.
"Fine, I'm taking Anna Karenina away from you to read to wherever we're going on the sole basis that it's pretty," Rory told her. "And because I want to read it again."
Delilah rolled her eyes, "Fine."
At five in the morning, after packing up the jeep, they were now driving through Stars Hollow.
"Wow, totally deserted," Rory stated.
"We're the last ones left," Lorelai joked.
Rory asked, "So are we almost there?"
"We're almost there and nowhere near it," Lorelai said. "All that matters is we're going."
"It's like we left Stars Hollow already," Delilah joked, even though they were still in the tiny town.
"Look out world," Lorelai said.
"Here we come," Delilah added. However, the red light stopped them from continuing to drive. "Damn you Doose."
