Still sullen over her break-up with Dean, Rory has a fighter with her mother Lorelai and heads to her grandparents' house in Hartford.
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: Rory, tell me what happened with you and Dean.
Rory: I don't want to talk about it.
Lorelai: Well, I do.
Rory: Why?
Lorelai: Because I had a little chat with him today.
Rory: What? Why?
Lorelai: Well, because I was upset and in the mood to do a little yelling.
Rory: You didn't.
Lorelai: I did.
Rory: No.
Lorelai: There he was, stacking cookies and I'm railing on him about what a great kid you are and how it sucked that he dumped you, and then he said he told you he loved you. And I started feeling a little stupid.
Quote from Rory
Rory: He did tell me.
Lorelai: And you didn't say anything?
Rory: No.
Lorelai: It must've been rough on him.
Rory: He looked so hurt. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to hurt him.
Lorelai: I know.
Rory: I just got scared and I sat there.
Lorelai: I understand.
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: My point is that it's scary to be in love. That much I know. But it's also wonderful and special. And if you can't say it or fully express it then you're never gonna be able to experience it. I want you to experience everything that's great because you're so great. Are you hearing me?
Rory: Yeah, I'm hearing you.
Lorelai: I'm not saying you say "I love you" at the drop of a hat. It has to be right and real and it has to take a lot of thought. But someday, with someone, it will be right. I want you to be ready for that moment when it happens.
Rory: Are you ready for that moment when it happens?
Lorelai: I'm working on it. I do, however, know what dress I'll be wearing.
Quote from Lorelai
Max Medina: [answers phone] Hello?
Lorelai: Now, I'm starting with the 'A's,' so first up is Richie Andrews. He's either a second cousin on my mother's side or the guy who re-grouted the bathroom. Either way, I think he's gonna be thrilled to hear about us. After I've called everyone in here I'm gonna spread the word at the inn. I thought I'd put little notices in everyone's rooms 'Welcome to the Independence Inn. Max and Lorelai are back together.'
Max Medina: Can I see you after your dinner tomorrow night?
Lorelai: I don't know. I have a lot of phone calls to make. Ooh, the Internet. Let's go global!
Max Medina: Good night, Lorelai.
