Post sex strummy-la-la music. Lorelai -- not even bothering to put on clothes after the act -- walks down the stairs in only a robe. Hey, is it the robe she stole from the spa? And by the way, there's some boring sex going on upstairs, because Lorelai's hair isn't even slightly distressed.
Lorelai enters the kitchen and finds a very freaked-out Sookie. "Daffodils!" Sookie's crying. Sookie's in her wedding gown, pulling the flowers off the cake. She can't believe she put daffodils on a wedding cake. Lorelai tells her to stop. Sookie says there's too much pink and that pink is for girls; Jackson's a boy. Sookie finally realizes that maybe she didn't let Jackson have even a small say in the planning of this ceremony. Lorelai tells Sookie to put the pastry bag down. Sookie says she can't. Lorelai talks to Sookie like she's a German Shepherd until Sookie puts the pastry bag down and walks away from the cake. Lorelai asks what happened. Sookie says she went home and was fine and went to bed fine. Wait. So Sookie, the bride, is the only one not staying at the Inn? I really don't get it. Oh, is Christopher upstairs in a room because he's from Boston, but everyone else is staying at their own houses, except Lorelai who was working late fixing the Inn but actually staying at home -- she just brought a change of clothes so she can work in something more comfortable? Okay, that makes more sense, but isn't Rory worried about Lorelai at this time of night? Sookie says she dreamed her dress didn't fit in back so she put the dress on and it looks okay, but it might be the veil, so she put the veil on and it's fine, but then she realized she's serving salmon puffs (she repeats twice for emphasis) and they're completely wrong, so she ran over to fix that, but then she saw the daffodils and something snapped inside of her. Lorelai says it's natural to be nervous. Sookie says she's scared. She doesn't want to get a divorce, fight all the time, or be bitter. She says she doesn't want to be one of those women sitting around making jokes about husband #2. She wants #1 to last. Lorelai keeps saying, "I know," so Sookie shuts up before she says, "I don't want to turn into you." Sookie says she wants a guarantee.
Sookie adds that she wants to stop obsessing on this, so she asks Lorelai to talk about her favorite subject: Lorelai. So, Lorelai tells Sookie that she just had sex with Christopher, upstairs in her place of business, and that she's still fresh from sex. She just came down to get him a snack. Sookie, for some reason, is pretty happy that Lorelai had sex with her ex on the eve of Sookie's wedding. Lorelai says she thinks it's a good thing. Sookie's so happy at the thought of Lorelai and Christopher getting back together after all these years. Didn't these two already have this conversation the last time Lorelai and Christopher almost got back together? Lorelai says they haven't talked about it yet. Sookie makes a bunch of noises, and Lorelai says they'll talk about it when she gets back upstairs. "He's waiting for you!" Sookie coos. Lorelai gloats that he is. Sookie tells Lorelai to go back upstairs. Lorelai tells Sookie to get some sleep. Sookie says she wants to hear all the details tomorrow. Lorelai promises to grab Sookie between the walking down the aisle and the vows. As if she wouldn't. Sookie laughs off. Lorelai stops her and says, "You're in your wedding dress. You're beautiful." I like that, to make sure the dress and the veil fit, Sookie had to do her hair and makeup as well. Sookie and Lorelai hug. Sookie sighs. Lorelai tells her to go get some sleep. "And you go get some," Sookie says. Blah. They force a laugh to end the scene.
