MamaLane's antique shop. Sookie asks Lorelai how she could not tell her parents about Christopher. Lorelai says that everything was so quiet and peaceful with them out of town and Rory away. "It just seemed quieter," she says. Sookie holds up a white naked male statue lamp thing and asks if it's "manly." "In an Oscar Wilde sort of way," Lorelai answers. Sookie tells Lorelai that she'll have to tell them tonight. Lorelai is wearing some kind of lingerie top that she must have stolen from Sheryl Crow. Sookie finds a shaving table. She thinks it's perfect. Lorelai points out that it costs $1200. MamaLane rushes up and barks that it's an antique. "Where did she come from?" Sookie asks, a little frightened. MamaLane says that they're looking at Sherman's shaving table: "General Sherman. Burned Atlanta. Liked a close shave." Everyone missed MamaLane, I know. MamaLane offers Sookie 10\% off. Sookie says that she still wants to look around. "It's very nice," Sookie says. "I know it's very nice," MamaLane says as she leaves. Lorelai notes that MamaLane would have made a very good nun. Sookie asks how Lorelai's going to tell her parents about Christopher. She says she was planning on doing it like Nell. "Chicka chicka chicka baaaay!" I think that perhaps Lauren Graham has never seen Nell, and didn't we all stop doing Nell jokes in 1998? Just wondering. Lorelai promises to tell them. Sookie coos over a mounted trout. "It's a dead fish," Lorelai winces. "It's an antique," Sookie corrects, planning on putting it over the mantle. She thinks it's manly. Very "Ralph Lauren." Lorelai calls it "Leon Troutsky." I think perhaps Amy let her husband do a little script tweaking, wondering if we'd still hate the script if it had her name on it even when he wrote it. I can tell he did it and I'm not falling for no Daniel Palladino in my tailpipe. Lorelai giddily announces that she's off to go pick up Rory at the airport before she swings by to pick her and Jackson up for the festival. Pick up to go where? Isn't the festival just outside their doors? And how much exposition do we need? Lorelai offers MamaLane ten bucks to not let Sookie buy the fish. MamaLane asks for twenty. Lorelai gives it to her.
