I'm really looking forward to your thoughts on this pivotal piece of 'Gilmore Girls' inspiration.

LUKE: I'll make some more. LORELAI: No, I got it. LUKE: Do you know how? LORELAI: Do I . . . uh. I am Cathy Coffee, mister, the bastard offspring of Mrs. Folger and Juan Valdez.

Lorelai: It's not used, it's left over. Emily: How nice. I'll just put it in the kitchen next to my half-empty box of Cheer. -"Kill Me Now," Season 1, Episode 3 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 00:32:02 GMThttp://gilmoregirls.goboardz.com/forum_topic.asp?ID=7491 http://gilmoregirls.goboardz.com/forum_topic.asp?ID=7491 One of my favorite scenes of all times ... their timing was just PERFECT! LORELAI: What Mom? What are you thinking? Just tell me. EMILY: I was thinking I guess I have to return your gift. LORELAI: My gift? EMILY: That's right. LORELAI: You'll have to return my gift. That's…that's what you were thinking? EMILY: That's right. LORELAI: That's it? EMILY: That's it. LORELAI: Oh. So you got me a gift already? EMILY: You were getting married. Gifts are expected. It's the proper thing to do. So how's ice cream sound? RORY: Ice cream sounds great. LORELAI: So what'd you get me Mom? [Emily walks out of the room. Lorelai follows her.] EMILY: I'm not gonna tell you that. LORELAI: Why not? It's for me. EMILY: But you're not getting it now. LORELAI: Iced tea spoons, right? EMILY: Lorelai. LORELAI: Because nobody really needs iced tea spoons ever. I mean, you probably would use 'em if you remembered to use 'em but nobody remembers to use 'em because they're always in a different drawer than the everyday silverware. Out of sight, out of mind. So people just grab a regular old everyday spoon to stir with, and you know what, they work fine. EMILY: It wasn't iced tea spoons. LORELAI: Oh, uhhh…oh, oh! Corn on the cob holder thingies! Sterling silver corn on the cob holder thingies? EMILY: Nope. LORELAI: Hah! EMILY: What? LORELAI: The tiny forks. EMILY: What tiny forks? LORELAI: The tiny forks with the tiny prongs and the tiny handles that I can only assume are used to eat the tiny food. EMILY: They're for lobster tails. LORELAI: So you did get the tiny forks! EMILY: You know what, I'm not returning the gift. I'm going to put it away in a closet and you won't know what it is until you do get married someday. LORELAI: Tell me now! EMILY: Sorry. LORELAI: Come on! Mom, I may never get married. I may be a free spirit my whole life or fall in love with a separated catholic guy like Katherine Hepburn did and then, and then not get to go to his funeral when he dies. EMILY: Well then you'll never get to know what I got you, will you? LORELAI: I've gotta know! EMILY: No. LORELAI: This is torture! EMILY: Tough. LORELAI: Okay, fine, forget it. I'm going to the bathroom. EMILY: I'm going to the kitchen. LORELAI: Hm. EMILY: Hm. [They both walk away. Cut to Rory, still sitting on the couch, listening to them.] LORELAI: HAH! EMILY: Oh God, you scared me! LORELAI: Come on, tell me! EMILY: Lorelai, get away. LORELAI: Tell me now. EMILY: I'm serious, get away from me. LORELAI: Please tell me. EMILY: This is not funny.

Season three is in my opinion maybe the best Gilmore Girls season, and this particular episode is wonderful. For instance, Rory's graduation speech is fantastic, and I love how Lorelai runs over to Sookie's house to celebrate that Mia is selling the inn. Moreover, I think it it is so funny when Paris says to the headmaster: "No hard feelings." There are so many beautiful and/or sad moments in this episode. The speech, as mentioned, when Rory hangs up on Jess, when Lorelai and Rory say goodbye to Chilton ... All in all, I believe this is one of the best episodes Gilmore Girls has to offer.

Is it an animal store? I know Luke purchases some really ugly cat pot holders there, but other than that ... Is it there Kirk gets his Cat Kirk? I wonder who owns the store?

Lorelai came to life through Lauren. The way emotions played across her face, especially when dealing with Rory, Luke, and her parents, is what endeared us to her. Just watch her in these scenes: - when Luke and Lorelai are behind the counter in the diner, hiding from Taylor and the townspeople, in "That Damn Donna Reed" (written by Daniel Palladino & Amy Sherman-Palladino) - when Lorelai is trying to find out why her mother is not happy about Lorelai's engagement in "Hammers and Veils" (written by Amy Sherman-Palladino) - when Rory says she is thinking "about it" in "Swan Song" (written by Daniel Palladino) - when Lorelai is about to answer Luke as to why she doesn't want him to move in "In the Clamor and the Clangor" (written by Sheila R. Lawrence and Janet Leahy) What can I say? I still like watching "Gilmore Girls" episodes, because I never get tired of the lead actress. Maybe it's because I still fondly remember watching the show with my daughter through her teen years. Maybe it's because ABC Family replays the episodes in order. I think it's because Lauren brought a great character to life. She looked great, had a "laughing voice," and always showed the necessary emotion. I continue to look forward to her next work.

Rory: Hey, What’s going on? Lorelai: Well, Stars Hollow smells like pickles. Rory: Pickles? Lorelai: Pickles. Rory: Pickles pickles? Lorelai: Pickles. Rory: Why? Lorelai: Because a pickle train crashed. Rory: Is this a joke? A long boring joke that I’m not going to get? Lorelai: No its no joke, the town smells like pickles because the pickle train was derailed. Rory: A train full of pickles, who knew there was such a thing? Lorelai: Pickle train conductors, for one. Sounds so fun. I would have been the greatest pickle train conductor. Can you see me, “All aboard you pickles.” Rory: Clearly you missed your calling. Lorelai: Well luckily there’s you. You're young, you’re clever, you’re our great pickle train conducting hope. Rory: I can’t believe I’m missing this. Lorelai: Well you can celebrate next year on the anniversary. Now what’s going on with you? Rory: Well, I can’t make it to Friday night dinner tonight, but I have a very good excuse. Lorelai: Pickle Train Conducting Seminar? Rory: Logan’s in town. Lorelai: No way! Rory: Yeah he showed up last night. It was a total surprise. Lorelai: I can’t believe you let me go on and on about pickle train conducting when you had actual news. Rory: You had news, Stars Hollow smells like pickles. I can completely see that scrolling along the CNN crawl. Lorelai: Logan in town is totally pre-pickle news. How long is he here for? Rory: 6 and ½ more hours. He flew in yesterday, bought a company, and he’s flying back out tonight. Lorelai: Oh my God, what are you guys going to do with your precious remaining hours? Or don’t I want to know. Rory: Mom. Lorelai: Well, you might be farming rutabagas or something, and I wouldn’t want to know because...boring. Rory: Well, tonight I’m meeting him in Manhattan to celebrate. Lorelai: Fancy restaurant? Rory: Rutabaga farm, actually. Oh, but I'm sorry about dinner. I didn’t mean to abandon you in your time of need. Lorelai: No worries. I’m not going to be totally defenseless; I’m bringing your dad. Rory: Really? Wow! Lorelai: Yeah! I thought it was time he meet the parents. Rory: OK, that is pre-pickle news, my friend. Lorelai: Aww, this conversation has been a disaster hasn’t it? Rory: Yes it has. Lorelai: Alright. Lorelai: Bring Bring. Hi Rory, how are you? Rory: Hi, Mom. Logan’s in town. Lorelai: Oh my goodness, that's wonderful. Rory: We're farming rutabagas. Lorelai: Oh! You're a filthy child. I will disown you. Bringing your father to dinner. Pickles, Pickles, Pickles, smell, pickle train conducting. Rory: Alas, Alack. Lorelai: Good Talk. Rory: The Best. Lorelai: Bye.
