Emily throws down her fork and declares that to be it. She wants to know why Rory's having a silent temper tantrum tonight, gushing all over her grandfather, but giving Emily the cold shoulder: "What is wrong with you?!" Rory is snotty in her responses, including informing Emily of the name of her own maid. Emily is upset that Rory will compliment and chat with everyone in the house but Emily herself: "This isn't you, this attitude of yours. This is your mother." Rory says she knows Emily's memory can't be this short. Emily tells Rory to walk out of the house and come in again, starting over. Richard tries to play mediator, but it's no good. Emily tells Rory that they have a contract. Every week, Rory comes to dinner because they are paying for Yale. Rory stands up and yells at Emily: "I mean, what did you expect? Ten Acropolis postcards and I would forget the fact that you broke up Mom and Luke? Now, I respect our contract, and I will continue to come every Friday night and eat dinner with you. But I won't guarantee an attitude that will please you. Excuse me." Emily doesn't excuse Rory. Rory totally doesn't care. She will "skip the Port," as she says. Richard: "Rory!" Rory tells Richard good night and that she'll see him in a week. Rory leaves. Richard and Emily are speechless.
