When is a commercial? When? My fingers are killing me. Rory can't just get her cast buzzed off anywhere, she has to go to the Medical Office of Dr. Ronald Sue of Orthopedic Medicine. Lorelai asks Rory if she's sad at all that the cast is coming off. Rory isn't, even though Lorelai has named it Casty. Rory says that Lorelai has to stop getting so attached to inanimate objects. Lorelai almost shoves Casty into her mouth to talk to it. Ew, that thing would totally stink. The doctor enters, and Rory is very happy to see at least one sane person around. As the doctor goes to get his saw, we hear some guy yelling in the hallway looking for Rory's room. It's Christopher, once again really just a bit too late, pretending to be a responsible father. He announces that he's "The Dad," as if that's a name he's been earning all this time. Like they should have been waiting for him. The girls, predictably, are all a-swoon at Christopher not letting them down at the last moment for once. Here's what bothers me about Christopher. I've figured it out. He looks like Joey Lawrence. Have I mentioned that before? Because he does. I keep waiting for the "Whoa!" Lorelai can't believe Christopher showed up, since he was just there (weeks ago). Christopher asks Lorelai if she's getting sick of him. "Frankly, yes," she says. Christopher makes a really lame joke about keeping the arm, and Lorelai just melts into the floor all smitten. Well, choosing a man is much easier when you alienate all the other options, isn't it, Lorelai? Oh, hey! Commercial! Woohoo!
