to lorelai on her one hundredth episode.

Gilmore Girls 0513 Wedding Bell Blues

Direct from TWoP, the recaplet for the episode 0513:

Hundredth-episode shenanigans get rolling when Luke and Lorelai go a few more rounds in the diner about his going or not going to Richard and Emily's big, rich-people vow renewal. He, of course, bows to the iron Gilmore will, and agrees to attend -- a decision he will later regret. As Lorelai and Rory prepare for their carbfest, Cop Rock marathon, hee, Emily calls with a trumped-up excuse to visit, and the Girls realize they're supposed to be throwing a bachelorette party for a sixty-year-old woman who has already been married for forty years. After rounding up all the ladies in Stars Hollow and getting Emily a snoot full of rum and Cokes (rums and Coke?), everybody drags ass into the wedding facility the next day, slungover but happy. Well, everybody's happy but Luke, who feels uncomfortable because the elder Gilmores are making him feel uncomfortable because they are jerks. Christopher shows up at the soiree (late, of course), and the awkward part of our evening begins. Luke is just about to rise above the whole thing when all hell breaks loose: Rory has oozed off into an anteroom with that Backstreet Boy she has such a crush on and is on the verge of hittin' it when Lorelai, Christopher, and Luke walk in and insert their own mess into her private moment. The drama boils until Christopher shouts out that everybody knows, just like Emily told him, that this thing with Luke and Lorelai was only temporary. Luke swiftly exits. Lorelai? Gets real mad. She rages out just in time for a family picture and brilliantly and viciously declares her relationship with Emily to be over. Finally.


best. episode. ever. well, one of the best, anyway. sure, it was almost definitely written to be as such because it was the hundredth episode, and... i'm rambling. and, hey, no-one's making you read this blog, so you'll just have to put up with it.

"You and me? We're done."
