Rory’s application to Harvard has arrived! And it’s dropped off by a mailman who not only opens the front door to deliver the mail, but he leaves the door wide open because all Stars Hollow characters lack boundaries.

We begin this episode with Judgy WASP Mom and Lorelai giving each other the silent treatment. The cold shoulder. The freeze out. Rory struggles valiantly to make conversation, but she should stop trying. Her mother is right. Her parents reaction to the news that C-Money is having a baby with another woman was completely out of line. She was already hurting from C-Money’s bullshit, and then her own parents have to make it worse?
When they finally do start talking about the girl Lorelai went to high school with who shot her husband, Judgy WASP Mom says, “At least she had a husband to kill.”

SEASON THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOO HOO! I DID IT! LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME DOING STUFF AND THINGS THAT MATTER TO NO ONE BUT MYSELF!

The Emperor’s New Groove is a gift to humanity.
The episode opens with Sookie, Lorelai, Rory, and Michele listening to a song by Ella Fitzgerald. Sookie wants to walk down the aisle to this suicide anthem but no one wants a Heaven’s Gate situation to break out at a wedding (see? I can drop dated references into my shit, too.)

Here’s another one
The girls are still searching for a breakfast place since the great Luke/Lorelai Misplaced Anger Fight has made Luke’s a No Go Zone. They settle on…Sookie’s. They make a woman who cooks for a living cook during her off hours because they themselves are too lazy to pour cereal into a bowl. And they don’t go to Sookie’s house carrying bundles of pancake mix and eggs and fruit – Sookie pays for all of this out of her own pocket.

The episode begins and we’ve jumped ahead a few days (? I think?). Rory’s wrist is still in a cast, Broody is still gone, and Lorelai won’t tell Rory what happened between her and Luke the night of the accident. Lorelai and Rory walk to Luke’s to discover that he’s closed up and “gone fishing.” Rory thinks this is because Lorelai and Luke had a fight, Lorelai is all “nuh uh! LA LA LA! NOT LISTENING”

Another day in Stars Hollow, another Movie in the Square night! What’s the feature presentation? The same movie Taylor has chosen for the last three years, the sticky-sweet classic, The Yearling. I know I’ve seen this movie, but it was about a million years ago and I don’t remember much outside there’s a deer in it. If this was Homeward Bound I could tell you everything about it (including how it rips your heart out and stomps on it for a full 90 minutes. Also, many animals died during filming of that gut punch of a movie.)
