By Pamie | Season 1 | Episode 20 | Aired on 2001.05.03
Rory is running out of Kim's Antiques. Lane is close behind her. She apologizes for not telling her about CuteDean, but she assumed that Rory wouldn't want to know. Rory says she understands. She asks Rory to stop walking. Rory speeds up. Then she whips around and says that now she knows about CuteDean and life will go on. Lane asks her to not be mad. Rory says she isn't, and runs off. Lane watches her with concern as we fade to black.
Pan down to Rory in bed, moaning in her sleep. She's wearing Lorelai's Paul Frank pyjamas. Excited knocking at the door. Rory covers her head with her pillow and Lorelai walks in and jumps on the bed. She says she has a huge dilemma. Apparently she's very pretty today, and she's not sure whether she's suddenly gotten prettier, or if she just didn't realize how pretty she was until just now. Rory grumps out of bed and says she's going to take a shower. Lorelai asks Rory why she's so "charming." Rory says she had "an annoying visit from the Stars Hollow Wake-Up Fairy." Rory says she can't find her tie. Lorelai tells her that it's in the living room. It's been seeing the doily in the coffee table, and this isn't the way she wanted Rory to find out about their love. "Don't take this personally," Rory sneers. "But get out." Lorelai says that Rory's crabby, and that the best cure for that would be an all-day trip to the mall. She tells Rory to cut school and go shopping with her all day. Rory refuses. Lorelai says it might make her feel better. Rory says she feels fine, and that she doesn't want to shop. Lorelai says she knows Rory's been in a funk over CuteDean, and she shouldn't dwell on it all the time. Rory says she's going to be late for school. Lorelai tells her to meet her after school for Indian food and they'll ruin their dinner together. "Whatever," Rory mumbles as she pouts out of the room. Lorelai thanks her for the enthusiasm and asks whether "Up With People" knows about Rory.
