Episode Report Card Pamie: B- | 1 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT But What About The Mattress?!
By Pamie | Season 4 | Episode 2 | Aired on 09.29.2003
Lorelai has ordered approximately $357 worth of delivery food for herself, Rory, Paris, and Tana. Lorelai's plan is to sample all of the possible take-out places to decide what's the best. They are also ordering by country. The girls can't remember where Indonesia is in relation to the Philippines. When Paris can't remember where Vietnam is in relation to the Philippines, Lorelai says, "Hoo, boy. You guys really need to go to college." Tana says she still smells glue. "From your glue gun," she says to Paris. "You're rich, you know that?" Paris says. Lorelai asks why the Indian food isn't mentioned on the chart. She says they need to judge quality of food, service, and the cuteness of delivery boy on a scale of 1 to 10: "We cannot work from memory on this." The phone rings. Lorelai says the phone is "under Mexico," and that it's probably the pizza. She asks Rory to come and help her. Maybe it's Luke on the phone, asking for his truck back.
Oh, my God. Ten pizzas. That's insane. Lorelai votes the delivery boy an 8. She pulls a pen from behind his ear and signs for her credit card. Rory says they are only four people, but they ordered for four hundred. And those mini-fridges can hold about three slices of pizza, tops. Lorelai asks if Rory wants to put a match to the keg and burn this mofo down. She calls out to all of the Durfee girls that food and partying and craziness are in Suite 5. She tells the girls to bring their appetites and opinions, and for someone to bring some music: "But if it's Evanescence, you will be severely mocked." The girls enter in pajamas, wearing those blankets around their shoulders that dorm girls do. What is that all about? Are they actually childhood blankies, or are skinny dorm girls really that cold all the time? And suddenly there aren't any boys on this floor. Hmm. The security door at the front of the dorm is pretty pathetic. Lorelai tells everyone to enter and rejoice, which kicks off some strange Saved By the Bell-sounding guitar.
Oh, it's Fountains of Wayne, I think. ["Correct, and that album rules." -- Wing Chun] Lorelai has ordered ice cream delivery, and asks the boy to count to ten before he leaves. She goes back into the room and tells the girls to look out the window and rate him. Someone's been unpacking the common room, because there are now paper lanterns strung up along the windows. Lorelai asks where ice cream goes on the chart. Rory says their organizational system broke down about an hour ago. Tana informs them that Germany fell on China. "That's Germany for ya," Lorelai says. She sighs and says they're out of Chinese completely. She decides that one of the places was a total bust, so they should lose the menus entirely, even though the delivery guy was a 9. Lorelai tells Rory where to get the best quesadilla and which guy should give it to her. Lorelai looks around and sounds a bit like Mrs. Garrett when she says, "All these girls. Together in one room and having fun. We should dance and sing a Motown song into our hairbrushes." Lorelai runs off to do just that, and for some reason Rory isn't mortified.
