There's a knock at the door. Paris puts on her sweater, saying that Jamie's here. She thanks Rory for the help, and tells her to get into the closet. She doesn't want Jamie to walk in and see another potential datable and change his mind. She doesn't want competition before the date even begins. Uh, there's still a guy at the door, y'all. They keep arguing about whether Rory should get into the closet until Paris pleads with her and Jamie knocks on the door again. Rory gets into the closet. "When you get home, you need to get a new therapist," Rory says, "because the one you have is really not working." Paris thanks Rory through the closed closet door. She opens the dorm-room door. Jamie stiltedly tells Paris that she looks really nice. "Well, this is a really good sweater," she explains with embarrassment. It's my favorite line of the episode. Jamie asks if she likes Italian food. She does. He's happy, because he made a reservation at a place that the Zagat guide said was really good. They leave, shutting the door as the sultry strummy-strummy-la-la kicks in. Inside the closet, Rory works on her letter to Jess, holding a flashlight above her notebook. Yes, Rory. Banish that love to the hidden dark, dusty corners where it belongs. Hide it. Keep it a secret. Put it away. Store it with mothballs.
