Gilmore Dinner. Emily tells Rory that Richard is bringing her something super special from Prague. Rory is excited about this and talks about an ex-cell, now hostel she would like to stay at. Lorelai is paying half attention because she's picking out avocados from her dish. This gets Lorelai and Emily snipping at each other, and it doesn't end when Emily asks Rory about the upcoming formal. Rory didn't mention it to either of them, but Emily read it in the Chilton Newsletter, which she thought it was only right to receive a copy of, being a major contributor of Rory's education. This only earns a mild eyeroll from Lorelai, though I feel like in the past (all 8 episodes lol) that may have earned a full on meltdown.
Oh hey, it's great to be back in Snark Squad HQ and it's even better that Mari let's me ramble about one of my favourite Gilmore Girls episodes.
Sweeney: Mari's out with a case of having the world's most inhumanly absurd schedule, but I agree that she is very great. (K: I have been wondering if she has a time turner somewhere.) Gif dance party for Mari in the comments. I'll start:

We open in the town square, prepping for one of their adorably ridiculous town festivals (get used to these - there are a lot of them!), with Lorelai bemoaning the fact that she hasn't had clean underwear in three days. When Rory asks what she's wearing under her skirt, she replies with, "Not underwear."(#RoleModelMom) In Connecticut. In October. Without stockings or anything. It could not be more clear that the show was produced in California.
This episode opens with a Friday Night Dinner where only Emily, Lorelei and Rory are in attendance. See how I used the term 'in attendance' because this is fancy? That's the kind of fanciness you can expect in my recap. If you're not already wearing your cravat, you should be.
