By Al Lowe | Season 6 | Episode 19 | Aired on April 17, 2006
Christopher is still in search of the bar when Jackson and Sookie come back from calling the baby-sitter. They quiz Rory on the location of the booze. "Shh," Rory says. "Don't say that so loud." Lorelai is appalled, but when the servers open the buffet, she says that they at least can get some food. "That food isn't for you," Rory starts to explain, but they all watch in shock as the Korean wedding guests practically sprint down the buffet, filling to-go boxes, pausing only to drop an envelope of money into a bag Lane is holding. Tires screech as they all nearly break their necks getting out of there. Lane is amazed by all the Korean craziness. "I can't believe your friends gave me all this money," she says to her mom, who nods as the last of her guests drive away. "Nice haul," MamaKim says, looking into the bag. "Lester Chin probably stiffed you." Lane says that's okay. Mrs. Kim thanks her for doing two ceremonies, saying that it was very important to her grandmother. "It was fun," Lane says. "Made my wedding seem a little more special." Mrs. Kim says it's good that she sees it that way. She smiles, saying that now that all her guests have gone, she's going to go home and go straight to bed: "I'm going to wear earplugs tonight, so I won't be able to hear anything that might be going on out in the street 'til all hours of the night." Lane throws her arms around her mother, thanking her. Pointing to Zach, who is now modeling his wedding robe for his friends, shesays, "Look at it this way -- you're not losing a daughter, you're gaining a son...who likes to wear a dress." Mrs. Kim throws up her hands. Back to her old curmudgeonly self, she tells Lane, "Don't let him take pictures in that thing." Lane waits until her mom is safely out of sight before giving the thumbs up to Kirk, who is waiting on the corner next to a huge truck. Kirk slaps a magnetic sign reading "Yummy Bartenders" on the side, and opens the door to release the booze and music. Lane and Zach meet in the middle of the street and are about to share a kiss, when Lorelai interrupts them: "Excuse me, there's something wrong with your dress!" Pulling away the long skirt, she reveals a short one underneath. "Yes!" Zach says. "My wife's got legs! So, let's get this party started."
