‘I Can't Get Started’

Season 2, Episode 22 -  Aired May 21, 2002

Sookie's wedding day is finally here. Jess moves back to town as Lorelai tries to patch things up with Luke. Meanwhile, Paris talks Rory into running for vice president of the student body.

Quote from Luke

Jess: I just- I just wanna come back.
Luke: [clears throat] You know what people told me when I said you were coming here? They told me I was crazy. They told me I was insane. They told me to start writing letters to Jodie Foster. But... I ignored them. I was so sure that I knew what I was doing. And then you showed up, and you know what happened? You proved them right. I was crazy. And now, after all that has happened, after all the chaos and havoc that you have wreaked, you're seriously standing there wearing a T-shirt with a picture of a butt with hands that are flipping me off, telling me you want to come back?
Jess: You didn't pack up my stuff yet.
Luke: Uh, no, I've been a little busy.
Jess: When were you planning on sending it back to me?
Luke: Well, hey, am I wearing a little brown uniform with UPS stamped on it?
Jess: So what do you think?
Luke: Things are gonna have to be different, Jess.
Jess: I know.

Quote from Jess

Luke: I got to get back to the diner.
Jess: I'll help you close up later, all right?
Luke: Sure. She's not home.
Jess: Who?
Luke: She's at Sookie's wedding with Dean. They're still together. They seem to have gotten through the whole car incident. They're doing really good, Dean and Rory.
Jess: Good.
Luke: Just leave it alone, Jess. She's got a boyfriend. Just let it go.
Jess: I don't know what you're talking about. I'm just going out for a walk.
Luke: You heard what I said?
Jess: Yeah, I heard what you said.

Quote from Paris

Rory: [answers phone] Hello?
Paris: We got the band.
Rory: What?
Paris: We got the band. I knew we had most of the academic clubs tied up, but the band they were the wildcard. Because believe me, if anybody's going to be truly scared of me it's some artsy loser with a tuba.
Rory: Paris, how did you get this number?
Paris: Oh, relax, I won't call you on Prince William's precious phone again. I just wanted you to know that we did it. We're in. Welcome to the show.
