Dragonfly. Lorelai and Sookie are making Michel and CuteDean carry a bookcase around the lobby, trying to fit it in a spot. It's too big, much to the amusement of GrumpyTom, who didn't have this particular item cleared through him. Michel is furious that he's hurting his cuticles hauling this piece of wood back and forth, but CuteDean takes all the heavy lifting in stride. Michel asks Lorelai if she has any other places she'd like them to carry the bookcase: "Maybe to the Lincoln Memorial, in his giant lap?" The delivery is awesome, and it's one of those lines that keeps me giggling long after it's been said. Michel quits when they suggest moving it by the front desk, so CuteDean carries it all by himself. CuteDean's hair has reached mushroom proportions, and somebody has to be fired because of it. Seriously. The kid's cute. Quit making him look like he can't read. Lorelai decides to send her thousand-dollar bookcase over to Rory at Yale. Because dorm rooms are so spacious. Enter Lindsay, who is so peripheral that they always have to go, "Hey, Lindsay!" every time she's in a scene so we know who the tall blonde is, and don't mistake her for Janet. Lindsay asks Michel if he's okay, since he's standing funny. Michel explains that this is how you stand in the pants he's wearing. I love Michel. CuteDean gives Lindsay some keys, and they flirt by the staircase as Lorelai and Sookie gush over how perfect they are for each other -- how they "float" around each other. Michel pouts that the Deans of the world always get the Lindsays, and that the "pretty little things" end up lifting bookcases. Michel has a bit of a freak-out over the bookcase, wishing it had never been born. GrumpyTom says that if the bookcase had been ordered through him, Michel wouldn't be experiencing this psychological trauma.
