Yale. Paris is upset that Rory's walking around the dorm room so carefree when she has a cold and is probably still coated in germs. When I watched this episode for the first time, I had a fever of 102, and in my near-delirium and misery, I kind of thought Paris was talking to me. It was scary. Rory says she's not contagious anymore. Paris still coats the doorknob with an aerosol spray. Rory points out that it's deodorant. Cue the classic Daniel Palladino vaudevillian punchline: "Then what the hell did I spray under my arms?" Soon, you too will be able to spot one of these scripts in eight minutes flat. Poor Paris is using Rory's old iMac, I think. From Season 1. Poor Paris. Rory gets a cell-phone call from Lane, who is standing in her new, completely empty apartment. Hey, Lane. Who pays your cell-phone bill these days? Rory asks how Lane can afford the apartment. Lane says she's sharing with mfTL and Brian, and that it's totally innocent. She has her own room, and they'll sleep in the living room. She moves her stuff in the next day, as long as MamaLane hasn't sold all of her things. Lane celebrates the arrival of her first piece of mail (her mailbox is apparently in the center of her empty living room): a Chinese menu. Rory suggests that Lane frame it. Rory hangs up to find Paris holding a lighter under their doorknob. "Fire kills germs," she explains. She holds her sweater over her face like Nosferatu and continues, "And I'm sleeping with one of the other girls tonight." Rory declares that to be "very The L Word." I want Paris's clothes from that scene. I can totally pull off the sexy spinster look.
