By Pamie | Season 2 | Episode 13 | Aired on 02.04.2002
Rory follows CuteDean and asks him not to walk away "like that." CuteDean delivers a clunky line about how he'd do a silly walk right now if he were feeling more like John Cleese. Rory keeps her hands in her pockets and starts the "this isn't my fault" bullshit. Why can't she just give Jess ninety dollars? ["Or a swift kick in the nuts? Or a mouthful of bloody Chiclets? I HATE HIM. I don't even love to hate him. It brings me no satisfaction to hate him. He just completely sucks in every possible way and wrecks the show whenever he's on it with his total, unadulterated sucking. Rrrrr." -- Wing Chun] Rory says she wouldn't do this on purpose and that she'd never do anything to hurt CuteDean. CuteDean tells her that she's hurting him right now. He walks away as Rory just watches. Break up with her, CuteDean. She's no good for you. Drive off in her car before she fucks Jess in it. ["YEAH." -- Wing Chun]
Cardigan Man sells a basket for twenty-five dollars. It's time for Sookie's basket. Sookie points at the basket and looks at Jackson so he knows that's her basket. Jackson is too pissed at Sookie to care. Kirk bids ten dollars. They guy behind Kirk outbids him. Sookie motions for Jackson to bid, but he doesn't. Kirk and the other guy outbid each other, with a moment where Kirk outbids himself. Sookie tries to stop the bidding, but Cardigan Man won't let her. The other guy, named Andrew (so they can do the "Andrew!" "Jackson!" joke), wants to know if the basket has pie. Cardigan Man says there are no contingencies. Kirk wins the basket for thirty-five dollars. Sookie runs after Jackson, yelling at him for not bidding on her basket after she told him that it was hers. Jackson says it didn't feel right to bid on the basket. Sookie complains that she put four kinds of pesto and other food things in there. And the basket is an edible pretzel with a goat cheese filling. Now that I'd love to eat. Seriously. Jackson has to beat it into Sookie that he's upset that she didn't want to move in with him. Jackson says that things are going really well with them and he wanted to take it up to another level. Sookie says she hadn't even thought about it. Jackson starts to leave, but Sookie says she was lying: "I have thought about it. A lot. Our bathroom would be pink." She does want to be with him, but she's nervous. He might get sick of her. He says she might get sick of him. She says that's not going to happen. Jackson says he doesn't see what the problem is. Sookie says the problem is that Kirk is going to eat her goat cheese basket. Jackson says he'll fix it. He dips her into a kiss. He leaves to get the basket back from Kirk.
