Lily: well there are ways to make the time go by faster.
Logan: and those would be?
Lily: well, you can play eye spy, you can play guess what.
Logan: those sound like childish games.
Lily: well they might sound like it, but that doesn’t mean that they are does it.
Logan: no not always, but I’m really kind of trying to figure out what to say to a girl.

Logan: umm…….come in, make yourself at home, I’ll be right back.
Lily: okay.
Logan goes after Rory.

Rory ignores him. Lorelai looks at Logan, then at Rory.
Lorelai: it’s good to have you back Logan, me and Luke will be upstairs.
Luke smiles. The both head upstairs.
Logan: Rory?
Rory keeps ignoring him.
Logan: she’s not an ex.
Rory: oh great so she’s just a one night stand.
Logan: no.
Rory: whatever, go and catch up, I’ll be here.
Logan: but you’ll be mad.
Rory: we’ll if you stay I’ll be mad too, so either way your not gonna get anywhere.
Logan: okay.
Logan heads into the living room.
Rory: he should have stayed now I’m even madder.
There’s a tap at the back door. Jess sticks his head in.
Jess: hey Rory.
Rory: hey Jess.
Jess: did Logan come back?
Rory: yep.
Jess: where is he?
Rory: talking to Lily.
Jess: does he know your mad?
Rory: yeah, I told him, and he didn’t really say much except nothing happened, and I told him to go ahead and catch up, because if he stayed I still would be mad, and he left.
Jess: oh, how nice of him.
Rory: yeah.
Jess: there’s a new girl in town.
Rory: really?
Jess: yeah, her names Cecilia.

Rory: well that’s good.
Logan comes in.
Logan: hey Rory we…….
Logan looks at Jess.
Logan: oh, hey Jess.
Jess: Logan, it’s good to see you.
Logan: I wish I could say the same about you, but your always with my girlfriend.
Jess: well how much longer is she going to be your girlfriend with Lily in town.
Logan: I don’t know probably about as long as you don’t have a black eye.

THE NEXT MORNING
**************
Rory moves the chair away from the door, opens it, and goes into the kitchen, she accidentally steps on Logan’s hand.
Rory: what in the world?
Rory looks down.
Rory: Logan?
Logan stretches.
Rory: what are you doing on the ground?
Logan: well since I was locked out of your room, and Tristan had the couch, I decided to just take the floor, in front of your room.
Rory: you could have slept in the chair.
Logan looks into the living room at the chair.
Logan: oh, I could have.
Rory goes to the table and sits down.
Rory: so did you have a good time with Lily?
Logan: yes, we talked about our lives, I think your name came up more than the letter a.
Rory: really?
Logan: yes really.
Logan gets up from the floor and goes and sits next to Rory.
Logan: Rory, I promise you nothing happened between me and Lily.
Rory: I don’t know if I can believe that.
Logan: and why is that?
Rory: because she looks like one of the girls from your past.
Logan: she is in my past.
Rory: you just said she wasn’t.
Logan: no, I said nothing happened between us.
Rory: she’s from your past, and you didn’t do anything?
Logan: no.
Rory: I find that really hard to believe.
Logan: Rory.
Rory: don’t Rory me. I know your past Logan, maybe not all of it, but I know who you we’re and what you did, and she was in there.
Rory gets up and goes back into her room. She stands, leaned up against her door and slides down it and starts to cry. Logan goes over to the door and listens. There’s a knock at the front door. Tristan wakes up instantly.
Tristan: I’ll get it.
Tristan stumbles to the front door.
Tristan: yeah?
Jess: well I like your snoopy pants.
Tristan: oh shut up, all my others are in storage.
Jess: so you wear these ones?
Tristan: yes.
Jess chuckles.
Jess: is Rory here?
Tristan: if she is, she’s in her room.
Jess: okay, thank you.
Jess comes in and goes into the kitchen. He sees Logan up against the door.
Jess: didn’t get your good morning kiss, so you had to get it from the door.
Logan: shut up.
Jess: what?
Logan: come here.
Jess: umm……did you fall and get amnesia or something?
Logan (whispering): I think she’s crying.
Jess: what?
Logan: I need you to listen.
Jess comes over and presses his ear against the door. Lorelai comes in.
Lorelai: well, morning boys. Is this some strange new way of saying you like the same girl?
They both ignore her. Lorelai gets her coffee watching the boys and goes into the living room. Tristan is half asleep on the couch.
Lorelai: what are they doing in there?
Tristan: what I’m not asleep.
Lorelai giggles and goes upstairs. When she gets to her room she sees that Luke’s not in bed.
Lorelai: Luke?
Lorelai looks in the bathroom, he’s not there.
Lorelai: Luke, where are you?
There’s no answer. Lorelai climbs into bed. Then Luke jumps out of the closet.
Luke: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Lorelai: today’s not birthday, it’s in three days.
Luke: that’s the bad part.
Lorelai: what’s the bad part.
Luke: the morning, just the morning of your party.
Lorelai: yeah?
Luke: I won’t be here?
Lorelai: why?
Luke climbs into bed.
Luke: I have to go to an important diner meeting in Hartford.
Lorelai: you have to?
Luke: yeah, someone ratted me out about yelling at Kirk, so they’re seeing if I’m suitable for running the diner.
Lorelai: why didn’t you tell me?
Luke: cause I’m just going to bring Kirk along, then they’ll know I’m suitable.
Lorelai: oh thinking outside the box.
Luke: actually I’m thinking outside of Taylor’s box.
Lorelai: you think it was Taylor that did this?
Luke: I do, cause I told him we we’re all out of his wheat pancakes.
Lorelai: oh you didn’t.
Luke: I did.
Lorelai: I think it’s him too.
Luke smiles.
Luke: so what are you thinking of doing for your fortieth birthday?
Lorelai: oh well defiantly going all out.
Luke: you want to go all out?
Lorelai: of course, cause you know I only turn 40 once, and I want people to remember it.
Luke: so no over the hill stuff?
Lorelai: oh no, none of that stuff, I’m not over the hill, I’m just reaching the part where you start walking up it.
Luke chuckles.
Luke: well do you have a color theme you want?
Lorelai: oh yeah, purple, silver, and lime green.
Luke: oh wow. That’s interesting.
Lorelai: you bet it is.
Luke: I’ll see what I can do.
***************
NOON
**************
Rory’s on the phone walking to Luke’s.
Rory: are you sure you don’t want to come and eat?
Lorelai: I’m sure.
Rory: you only come for Luke don’t you?
Lorelai gasp, but doesn’t say anything.
Rory: I knew it.
Lorelai: you can’t prove it.
Rory: then come and have lunch.
Lorelai: oh it’s okay, Sookie can make me something.
Rory: proof.
Lorelai: darn.
Rory: talk to you later.
Lorelai: bye.
Rory hangs up her phone and she walks into Luke’s.
Jess: you know he’s not here so you can talk on the phone right?
Rory: I know, but it just happened perfectly.
Jess: okay, sit where ever you like.
Rory sits at the counter by a tall girl with blonde hair. Rory looks over at her. Jess comes by.
Jess: Rory, this is Cecilia. Cecilia this is Rory.
Cecilia: so your Rory.
Rory: so your Cecilia.
The both giggle.
Cecilia: I’ve heard a bunch about you.
Rory: I can say the same.
Cecilia: Jess was just getting ready to give me the full fledge Jess Mariano tour of Stars Hollow, you wanna help?
Rory: I’m okay, I’m gonna eat and start planning my moms birthday.
Cecilia: oh that sounds fun.
Rory: yeah, but she freaks out if she doesn’t get what she wants.
Cecilia: I know a few people like that.
Jess: you ready?
Cecilia: yeah.
Jess: I’ll go get my tour brochure and I’ll be right back.
Jess goes upstairs.
Cecilia: I have to ask you something.
Rory: okay?
Cecilia: how do you go all day hanging around Jess and not wanting to kiss him?
Rory: excuse me?
Cecilia: I mean he is so cute.
Rory: I don’t know, I guess it helps that I have a boyfriend, for the time being, but…..
Cecilia: oh that would make it little easier.
Rory: it would.
Jess comes back downstairs.
Jess: alright we’re ready.
Cecilia: we are.
Jess: you sure you don’t want to come Rory?
Rory: I’m sure, you guys have fun though.
Jess: I’ll see you tonight.
Rory: kay.
Jess and Cecilia leave.
***************
Lorelai: Sookie?
Lorelai walks into the kitchen.
Lorelai: Sookie where are you?
Sookie stands up.
Sookie: over here.
Lorelai: what are you doing on the floor?
Lorelai walks over.
Lorelai: we’re you crying?
Sookie: no……..um I was cutting onions.
Lorelai: what?
Lorelai looks around.
Lorelai: I don’t see any onions.
Sookie: I ate them.
Lorelai: what’s wrong?
Sookie starts to cry.
Sookie: I can’t do this Lorelai. I’m loosing my mind. I haven’t slept in 3 weeks. I haven’t ate since God knows when, and I’m running errands for my mayor slash produce man all the time when he could do them. I have a job too.
Lorelai: come here.
Lorelai hugs Sookie. Michel comes in. He looks at the Sookie and Lorelai.
Michel: did I walk in on something?
They stop hugging.
Sookie: no.
Michel: okay, well Lorelai you have a call from you mom.
Lorelai: tell her I’ll be there in one minute.
Michel: you know she’s gonna time you right?
Lorelai: yes.
Michel: okay.
Michel leaves.
Lorelai: you can do this Sookie, I know you can. When Martha was born, you didn’t start sleeping until 5 weeks, you didn’t eat at all ever, and as soon as Jackson became mayor you started to have to do errands for him, it’s nothing new.
Sookie sighs.
Sookie: I guess.
Lorelai: it may seem new since you have another person to take care of, but it’s not.
Sookie: your right.
Lorelai: you okay?
Sookie: ye………
Michel (yelling): your mother!!!
Lorelai: I gotta go, if you need me……
Sookie: no it’s okay, I’m fine.
Lorelai: okay.
Lorelai leaves.

THAT NIGHT
**************
Rory is sitting in the living room. Tristan walks in.
Tristan: hey Rory.
Rory: hey Tristan.
Tristan: what are you doing?
Rory: sitting here.
Tristan: your just sitting there?
Rory: yeah.
Tristan: that’s a shocker.
Rory: not really.
Tristan: you want to talk about it.
Rory: I’m okay.
Tristan: okay, if you ever need to, I’m here.
Rory: I know.
Tristan: well this is my last night in the Gilmore house.
Tristan sits down.
Rory: what?
Tristan: yeah, my house is done. I can move in as soon as tomorrow.
Rory: oh, that’s great Tristan.
Tristan: yeah, I’m excited.
Rory: I would be too.
Rory and Tristan sit in silence for a minute.
Rory: it’s gonna be weird not having you on the couch anymore.
Tristan smiles.
Tristan: oh well I’ll be here tonight, you can take a picture, it’ll last longer.
Rory giggles.
Rory: I’ll do that.
Tristan: make sure that I look good, cause I don’t want the last memory you have of me to be an ugly one.
Rory: last memory?
Tristan: well I figured that since I was not in Stars Hollow you really wouldn’t have any need to talk to me.
Rory: that’s what you figured?
Tristan: yeah, it makes sense.
Rory: I could smack you.
Tristan: what?
Rory: just because your moving doesn’t mean we can’t still talk.
Tristan: it doesn’t?
Rory: no. I’m in Hartford a lot, my grandma lives there, and now I need to go to visit you.
Tristan: I’m a reason to visit Hartford?
Rory: of course, your definitely a reason.
Tristan: okay, that’s good.
Rory: and you’ll still have to come and visit me.
Tristan: oh that will not be a problem.
Rory: good.
Lorelai and Luke come rushing through the front doors with groceries.
Lorelai: oh my gosh you should have seen the lines at Dosey’s Rory, it was the longest I had ever seen it in 3 years, and that was only when he marked milk half off.
Rory: what was the sale?
Lorelai: any 5 items for 5 dollars.
Rory: really?
Lorelai: me and Luke made out like wet bandits.
Luke: yeah I even got Jess some stuff.
Rory: oh, do you need me to take it over there?
Luke: would you?
Rory: sure, I don’t really have anything else to do.
Lorelai: oh but tell me how the party planning is going?
Rory: it’s good, purple and lime green go good with silver.
Lorelai: I told you Luke.
Luke: you did.
Rory: well I’m gonna take this stuff to Jess’.
Lorelai: okay hurry back.
Rory: I got to make a pit stop at the inn first though.
Lorelai: okay.
Rory heads for the door. Paris and Doyle come running through the doors.
Rory: Paris?
Paris: hey Rory.
Rory: what’s going on?
Paris: we have great news.
Rory: okay, what is it?
Paris: are you ready?
Rory: yeah.
Luke and Lorelai come up behind Rory.
Lorelai: Paris?
Paris: hey Lorelai, I’m glad you could be here. Doyle and I have great news.
Luke: oh great.
Paris: it is great, way to get in the spirit Luke.
Lorelai smiles.
Lorelai: what is it?
Paris: okay brace your selves.
Luke grabs a side table.
Luke: bracing.
Paris: Luke, your so funny.
Rory looks at Luke funny.
Rory: tell us.
Paris takes a deep breath.
Doyle: do you want me to tell them?
Paris (screaming): NO!!!!
Doyle takes a step back.
Doyle: she’s got it all under control.
Paris: thank you.
Luke: are you gonna tell us?
Paris: be patient. It’s important.
Tristan walks up.
Tristan: how important can it be?
Paris: shut up Tristan.
Tristan: still bossy.
Tristan hugs Paris.
Doyle: keep your grimy hands off of her.
Tristan lets go.
Tristan: calm down little man, she’s all yours.
Doyle: don’t tell me to calm down.
Luke sighs.
Lorelai: Paris, Luke is growing impatient.
Paris: sorry, sorry. Okay are we ready?
Rory: we’ve been ready.
Paris: your ruining the moment.
Rory: actually I think your doing that.
Paris gasp.
Paris: me, I’m the one who’s pregnant, how am I ruining it?
Rory’s jaw drops.
Rory: what!?
Lorelai looks at Luke.
Lorelai: really?
Luke: your what?
Doyle smiles.
Tristan: hmm……interesting.
Tristan walks back into the living room.
Paris: oh I kinda let it slip out, I wasn’t really going to tell you that way, but I am, I’m pregnant.
Rory stands there, and then hugs Paris.
Rory: oh my gosh Paris congratulations.
Paris: thanks.
Rory hugs Doyle.
Rory: way to go.
Doyle smiles.
Doyle: well being the editor of The Yale Daily News……..
Rory: that was like 2 years ago Doyle.
Doyle: sorry.
Lorelai hugs Paris, then Doyle.
Lorelai: that’s awesome Paris, your gonna make a great mom.
Paris: I hope so.
Lorelai smiles.
Lorelai: I know so.
Luke hugs Paris, and shakes Doyle’s hand.
Luke: I knew you had it in you.
Doyle: I knew I had it in me too.
Luke: okay, awkward.
***************
Rory goes up the stairs to Lily’s room and knocks. Lily answers.
Lily: hello?
Rory: oh hey Lily.
Lily: Rory? What are you doing here?
Rory: I came to see if you knew where Logan was?
Lily: yeah, he’s getting food.
Rory: oh okay.
Lily: you can join us if you want, I wanted to call and ask you, but Logan thought that would be a bad idea.
Rory: he was probably right, could you tell him I stopped by?
Lily: sure, but Rory?
Rory: yeah?
Lily: nothing happened between me and Logan, we met each other on a plane, and we talked. He mostly talked about you. He loves you. And I’m extremely jealous of you.
Rory: thanks.
Lily nods, and Rory leaves.
***************
Rory knocks at the door of Luke’s. There’s no answer. She knocks again. No answer. She grabs the spare key and unlocks the door. She walks up to the stairs and sees Cecilia and Jess are kissing.
