CuteDean walks Rory to the dance floor and says that Paris seems like lots of fun. Rory says Paris is a blast. Rory puts her arms around CuteDean and he tells her that "this dancing thing" is not something he wants her "to get used to or comment on." She says that goes both ways. They dance. CuteDean asks, "Hey, if I kiss you is a nun gonna come out and boot me out of here?" Rory says it's not a Catholic school. ["That might be a shout-out, since Pamie's said a few times that she thinks it is." -- Wing Chun] She says he can kiss her. He does.
The camera spins away from Rory and CuteDean and finds Philllipppe standing against a wall watching them kiss. Philllipppe's date, who he had said earlier would be named Cissy, prances out and says she's perfect now and is ready to dance. Philllipppe doesn't want to dance. She asks if he wants to eat. He doesn't. She asks if he wants to go make out. Bored, he replies, "Yeah, all right. Let's go."
Back to Rory and CuteDean. "So, Ponyboy," he asks her. "You happy?" She says he is. My boyfriend stomps by. "What is your problem?" I ask him. "I was such an asshole in high school. I should have been CuteDean. He makes me want to be a better man."
Emily brings Lorelai some banana toast. Lorelai says she thinks somebody already ate it. Emily says she used to make it all the time for Lorelai when she was a little girl. "Whenever you were sick I made this." Lorelai: "Are you sure it wasn't the other way around?" Emily says she'll just take it back to the kitchen, but Lorelai says she wants it and that Emily should leave it there. Emily says that Lorelai can't be comfortable in her current position (legs thrown over the back of the couch, back propped on the side of the couch) but Lorelai insists that she is. Emily comments that Lorelai isn't eating. Lorelai picks up the toast, brings it to her mouth, points it at Emily and says, "Mom. Please don't make me eat this." Emily says that Lorelai has to eat something. Sookie left burritos in the fridge. Emily says she'll heat one up, but Lorelai says she likes it cold. Emily looks like she wants something to do, and Lorelai recognizes that, so she tells Emily that a warm burrito would be nice as well. Man, I wouldn't trust that woman to warm my burrito. She didn't know what a cookie sheet was. Emily leaves to warm the burrito. Lorelai throws a napkin over the banana toast, grabs the bottle of muscle relaxers and takes one.
