Emily moves on from berating Lorelai to berating Sookie, who, though some of her tea dishes are divine, has made the inexcusable mistake of suggesting spinach quiche, which might result in unsightly spinach getting stuck in the girls' teeth. I don't mean to make light of a serious tragedy, but uh...it also might result in their deaths, so yeah, don't serve spinach. Sookie excitedly presents her next offering: mini PB&J sandwiches. "I just thought that since the girls were only ten," she gushes, "that they'd enjoy it more than the smoked salmon sandwiches." Emily recoils: "They're ten, they're not animals. This is a proper tea, Sookie. I'm not interested in circus food." Sookie is appropriately ashamed. "Stings, don't it?" Lorelai whispers in support, and Emily moves on to be escorted by Michel, her true soulmate, to see the room where the tea will be held. Emily does, however, take one parting shot on the way out: "I like your hair like that, Lorelai." This causes Lorelai to frown visibly. I guess we'll never see her hair up again.
