[Burglar alarm ringing]
2
00:00:33,627 --> 00:00:35,778
- Crap!
- What's going on?
3
00:00:35,963 --> 00:00:37,921
Is it the smoke
detector? Are we on fire?
4
00:00:38,092 --> 00:00:40,653
- Not the smoke detector, it's the alarm!
- What alarm?
5
00:00:40,845 --> 00:00:42,803
- Our alarm.
- We don't have an alarm.
6
00:00:42,973 --> 00:00:44,805
Then we have really angry rats.
7
00:00:45,394 --> 00:00:47,989
- Did you cut your hair?
- I just trimmed it.
8
00:00:48,189 --> 00:00:50,147
You didn't tell me you
were cutting your hair.
9
00:00:50,317 --> 00:00:51,751
It was a
spur-of-the-moment thing.
10
00:00:51,902 --> 00:00:54,861
A spur-of-the-moment "Let's not tell
my mother I'm pulling a G.I. Jane"?
11
00:00:55,074 --> 00:00:57,094
Are we seriously gonna
have this conversation now...
12
00:00:57,118 --> 00:00:58,189
during the air raid?
13
00:00:58,328 --> 00:01:00,206
- You're right. Come on.
- What are we doing?
14
00:01:00,373 --> 00:01:02,489
I figured out that there
is a motion detector...
15
00:01:02,668 --> 00:01:05,229
and if you stand over here, it
can't see you and it calms down.
16
00:01:05,588 --> 00:01:08,547
- Great, so what now?
- We wait.
17
00:01:08,968 --> 00:01:11,358
Why didn't you tell me you
were getting your hair cut?
18
00:01:11,555 --> 00:01:12,384
It's just a trim.
19
00:01:12,396 --> 00:01:14,389
To the Braille
Institute, it's just a trim.
20
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,956
- Do you like it?
- Will you put it back if I don't?
21
00:01:17,146 --> 00:01:19,263
- Yes, I like it.
- Thank you.
22

[Lorelai sighing]
23
00:01:20,609 --> 00:01:21,644
Thank God.
24
00:01:21,777 --> 00:01:25,055
- Feels good when it's over.
- This is crazy. When did we get an alarm?
25
00:01:25,283 --> 00:01:28,402
Apparently, Kirk has recently joined
the Stars Hollow Security Company.
26
00:01:28,620 --> 00:01:29,690
No.
27
00:01:29,830 --> 00:01:32,220
And now that I'm the pretty
spinster living all alone...
28
00:01:32,417 --> 00:01:33,897
he's concerned for my safety.
29
00:01:34,044 --> 00:01:35,114
Did he tell you all this?
30
00:01:35,255 --> 00:01:37,326
You think I labeled
myself "the pretty spinster"?
31
00:01:37,507 --> 00:01:39,820
- What did you say?
- I haven't talked to him face-to-face.
32
00:01:39,844 --> 00:01:43,999
I come home to this and there
was a note and his card and his gun.
33
00:01:44,684 --> 00:01:46,961
And then when I called
the alarm-response center...
34
00:01:47,146 --> 00:01:49,297
to complain about the
alarm, no one answered.
35
00:01:49,608 --> 00:01:52,841
I had to leave a message
with Meg. She sweeps up.
36
00:01:53,071 --> 00:01:55,791
I can't even believe there's a
security company in Stars Hollow.
37
00:01:55,992 --> 00:01:58,951
- Nothing ever happens here.
- That's not true. Plenty happens here.
38
00:01:59,163 --> 00:01:59,656
Like what?
39
00:01:59,668 --> 00:02:01,519
Like, people now
break into your houses...
40
00:02:01,708 --> 00:02:03,780
- and install alarm systems.
- I heard about that.
41
00:02:03,961 --> 00:02:05,442
- We have a new mail carrier.
- We do?
42
00:02:05,589 --> 00:02:07,669
If you want your mail, you
have to go see Miss Patty.
43
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,474
- Why?
- 'Cause that's where he brings it.
44
00:02:09,636 --> 00:02:12,436
He brings Babette's mail to
Andrew, Norma's mail to the deli...
45
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,922
and Taylor still hasn't found
his, which, I admit, is fun.
46
00:02:15,018 --> 00:02:17,613
I rescind my previous
statement. This place is hopping.
47
00:02:17,814 --> 00:02:20,649
- So, did you eat yet?
- Nope. I thought I'd let you feed me.
48
00:02:20,860 --> 00:02:22,259
Sure. I can feed you...
49
00:02:22,403 --> 00:02:24,475
but I can't know if you're
getting your hair cut.
50
00:02:24,657 --> 00:02:26,888
I'll never do anything again
without telling you. Happy?
51
00:02:27,077 --> 00:02:29,547
I don't know. I'm finding this
guilt thing rather satisfying.
52
00:02:29,747 --> 00:02:32,217
No, where are you going?
Why did you do that?
53
00:02:32,417 --> 00:02:35,217
- I was gonna get my laundry!
- You made it mad!
54
00:02:35,421 --> 00:02:38,814
- I didn't mean to!
- Back in the corner! Back in the corner!

00:02:43,475 --> 00:02:44,510
Yeah.

- Mom?
- Follow the Post-its.
59
00:03:52,154 --> 00:03:54,305
Does our life seem
at all ridiculous to you?
60
00:03:54,574 --> 00:03:57,294
I spent all morning carefully
tracking that motion detector.
61
00:03:57,495 --> 00:03:59,134
What an excellent
use of your time.
62
00:03:59,289 --> 00:04:01,008
We're good as long
as we stay on the path.
63
00:04:01,167 --> 00:04:05,401
- So I should follow the Yellow Stick Road?
- We'll be here all week. Try the veal.
64
00:04:05,714 --> 00:04:06,864
- Stop.
- What?
65
00:04:07,008 --> 00:04:10,639
- Read.
- "Crouch down and hop." Come on.
66
00:04:10,931 --> 00:04:13,091
The motion-detector beam
at the top of the staircase...
67
00:04:13,225 --> 00:04:14,296
dips very low over there.
68
00:04:14,435 --> 00:04:16,196
You seriously want me
to crouch down and hop?
69
00:04:16,313 --> 00:04:18,350
Like a little hunchbacked bunny.
70
00:04:19,317 --> 00:04:22,037
You know, I had decided
that if I ever went to therapy...
71
00:04:22,238 --> 00:04:24,037
I was gonna leave
you out of it, but now...
72
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:25,314
Okay, you can stand up.
73
00:04:25,450 --> 00:04:27,727
Did you at least call the
stupid security company again?
74

Yes. Meg sends her love.
75

by on my way to the inn.

today, Persis Khambatta?
77

Today, I'm going
to do nothing...

but hang out in

perfect Stars Hollow day.

Look out.
81

I get to go over to the inn and
hear a contractor laugh at me...

cost too much more, right?"

So which way do I go?
86
00:04:52,739 --> 00:04:54,139
Just follow the Post-its.
87
00:04:54,283 --> 00:04:56,241
But they're going in
two different directions.
88
00:04:56,411 --> 00:04:57,606
- They are?
- Look.

I must have kicked some
out of the way by accident.
90
00:05:00,291 --> 00:05:02,520
- Which one do I take?
- Which one looks more intentional?
91
00:05:02,544 --> 00:05:05,264
- No Post-it path looks intentional.
- I'm drawing a complete blank.

my friend it is your responsibility...

- so I'm not accidentally in it.
- What?

coming home this weekend.

have been so crazy. I just figured...

talked, then we didn't.

is lame. I'm gonna bail.

- He did not just go to college.

- No, I'm not. I promise.

surprised. I mean, Dean's wedding...

- I know.
- But it's okay.
157
00:08:24,243 --> 00:08:25,924
It just means I have
to be more careful...

about where I go this
weekend. That's all.
159

did not go to Harvard.

- Get away from me! I mean it.

- Bye.

00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:53,728
- Hi.
- Hi.
165
00:08:55,078 --> 00:08:56,398
Were you...
166
00:08:56,538 --> 00:08:59,179
- I was at Lane's.
- Right, Lane's.
167
00:09:00,419 --> 00:09:02,252
So, you're home this weekend?
168
00:09:02,463 --> 00:09:05,980
Yeah, I ran out of clean
clothes and quarters so...
169
00:09:06,802 --> 00:09:08,441
How are things?
170
00:09:08,597 --> 00:09:10,748
- Good. You?
- Good.
171
00:09:10,975 --> 00:09:14,014
- You like Yale?
- I love Yale. And Connecticut State?
172
00:09:14,229 --> 00:09:17,063
- It's good.
- Good. I'm glad it's good.
173
00:09:17,276 --> 00:09:19,396
Not that I would have had
any recourse if it wasn't...
174
00:09:19,570 --> 00:09:22,849
but this makes my lack of
recourse a lot easier to deal with.
175
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,831
- So, I see you've taken over the town.
- Yeah, Lindsay thought...
176
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,311
- She likes the gazebo, and...
- It's her wedding.
177
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:32,021
- It is her wedding.
- And your wedding. It's your wedding, too.
178
00:09:32,212 --> 00:09:34,727
Yes, it is. It's
my wedding, too.
179
00:09:34,925 --> 00:09:37,395
It's nice. It's pretty.
180
00:09:37,721 --> 00:09:40,521
It looks like heaven or a
Victoria's Secret commercial...
181
00:09:40,725 --> 00:09:43,081
which, to some people,
is basically the same thing.
182
00:09:43,270 --> 00:09:47,151
- Didn't know you'd be home this weekend.
- It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing.
183
00:09:47,401 --> 00:09:50,838
Because if I had known, I would
have, you know, invited you.
184
00:09:52,366 --> 00:09:53,437
It's...
185
00:09:53,576 --> 00:09:55,966
I didn't want you to think
I was just not inviting you.
186
00:09:56,163 --> 00:09:58,917
- No, I didn't think that.
- I just figured you'd be at school.
187
00:09:59,209 --> 00:10:01,247
- I just didn't know.
- I know you didn't.
188
00:10:01,420 --> 00:10:03,697
- I didn't want you to think...
- No, I don't think.
189
00:10:03,882 --> 00:10:06,318
I go to Yale now.
They think for you.
190
00:10:08,222 --> 00:10:11,341
But, since you are here, come.
191
00:10:11,768 --> 00:10:14,158
- Come?
- Come to my wedding.
192
00:10:14,939 --> 00:10:17,170
- Dean.
- You and Lorelai, I want you to.
193
00:10:17,359 --> 00:10:18,634
- Chicken or beef?
- What?
194
00:10:18,778 --> 00:10:21,293
Wait, beef. Of course beef.
195
00:10:21,490 --> 00:10:23,721
I mean, the two of
you are definitely beef.
196
00:10:23,952 --> 00:10:26,229
I mean, not like you
resemble beef or anything.
197
00:10:26,414 --> 00:10:29,851
- You know, you don't even have to...
- Okay, so, noon at the church.
198
00:10:30,128 --> 00:10:31,687
I'll be the one in the tux.
199
00:10:31,838 --> 00:10:34,991
Don't worry, we didn't write our
own vows and no one's singing opera.
200
00:10:35,218 --> 00:10:37,414
- I know you think that's lame.
- No, it's a wedding.
201
00:10:37,596 --> 00:10:39,872
It's supposed to be operatic.
202
00:10:40,057 --> 00:10:42,699
Okay, so, I better get over
there. Lindsay's expecting me.
203
00:10:42,895 --> 00:10:46,207
- So, I'll just see you two tomorrow.
- But...
204
00:10:54,619 --> 00:10:56,293
KIRK: Now? LORELAI: Nothing.
205
00:10:57,123 --> 00:10:59,274
- What about now?
- No, nothing.
206
00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:01,031
Okay.
207
00:11:01,796 --> 00:11:03,276
- Now?
- Nothing.
208
00:11:03,424 --> 00:11:06,144
- Kirk, what's supposed to happen?
- What?
209
00:11:06,345 --> 00:11:09,020
I don't know what I'm
supposed to be looking for.
210
00:11:10,099 --> 00:11:12,057
- Kirk?
- I'm not sure.
211
00:11:12,394 --> 00:11:14,386
Kirk, please come downstairs.
212
00:11:14,564 --> 00:11:16,317
Are you going to hurt me?
213
00:11:16,484 --> 00:11:19,398
I swear, they told me it
would be self-explanatory.
214
00:11:19,613 --> 00:11:21,093
I just had to get
in the main box...
215
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,914
and, in seconds, this
would be disabled.
216
00:11:23,077 --> 00:11:24,636
They didn't tell me
I needed a key...
217
00:11:24,787 --> 00:11:27,462
or that, if I didn't have a key, I
would be mildly electrocuted...
218
00:11:27,666 --> 00:11:29,977
and then, after all that,
when I got in the box...
219
00:11:30,169 --> 00:11:32,161
there's nothing
self-explanatory about it.
220
00:11:32,339 --> 00:11:34,490
- I was trying to do a nice thing.
- I know.
221
00:11:34,676 --> 00:11:38,114
Jimmy said he would install it for me,
because I do not have those skills yet.
222
00:11:38,348 --> 00:11:40,326
- The class was full when I got there.
- That's okay.
223
00:11:40,350 --> 00:11:41,864
Damn my constant tardiness.
224
00:11:42,019 --> 00:11:45,172
Kirk, please, what can we do
right now? The alarm is just so loud.
225
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,041
That's my fault, too. I
asked Jimmy to crank it up.
226
00:11:48,237 --> 00:11:49,386
He did.
227
00:11:49,530 --> 00:11:51,204
If you have an alarm,
you need it loud.
228
00:11:51,366 --> 00:11:54,086
You don't want a knife-wielding
gunman at your throat...
229
00:11:54,286 --> 00:11:55,800
and the neighbors
are going, like:
230
00:11:55,956 --> 00:11:58,187
"Is that a fan? Did I
leave the water running?"
231
00:11:58,376 --> 00:11:59,979
You want them to know,
hey, that's an alarm.
232
00:12:00,003 --> 00:12:02,041
Your imaginary attacker
has a knife and a gun?
233
00:12:02,214 --> 00:12:03,853
And a really dirty tank top.
234
00:12:04,009 --> 00:12:07,526
So, Jimmy's out of town, but
until he gets back we can...
235
00:12:07,763 --> 00:12:10,119
- Change the code.
- Really? To something I know?
236
00:12:10,308 --> 00:12:12,069
- You can pick it.
- You know how to do that?
237
00:12:12,186 --> 00:12:13,905
- Yes, I do.
- That is perfect.
238
00:12:14,356 --> 00:12:17,110
Okay, here we go. Just punch
in a seven-number sequence.
239
00:12:17,318 --> 00:12:18,593
- You got it.
- Hey!
240
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:19,808
Hi.
241
00:12:19,947 --> 00:12:23,385
Did you know your phone's not
working? I've been calling you for an hour.
242
00:12:23,619 --> 00:12:25,896
I had the operator check
it. She said it's cut off.
243
00:12:26,081 --> 00:12:28,232
- It was working this morning.
- I'll be right back.
244
00:12:28,418 --> 00:12:29,897
- Kirk?
- I have tape.
245
00:12:30,045 --> 00:12:31,957
- You look tired.
- Yeah, Kirk.
246
00:12:32,131 --> 00:12:35,011
Right. Listen, I
got a call today.
247
00:12:35,218 --> 00:12:38,212
- From?
- Michel. A very upset Michel.
248
00:12:38,432 --> 00:12:39,467
Why?
249
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,070
Apparently, he called you,
and you never called him back.
250
00:12:42,270 --> 00:12:45,229
- When did he call me?
- He said he called you in July.
251
00:12:45,441 --> 00:12:48,561
- I was in Europe in July.
- I think that he thinks...
252
00:12:48,780 --> 00:12:50,738
we're trying to ace
him out of the Dragonfly.
253
00:12:50,908 --> 00:12:54,220
- Why would he think that?
- I don't know, but he was so hysterical.
254
00:12:54,454 --> 00:12:56,765
His voice got into that
high-pitched squeal he does...
255
00:12:56,957 --> 00:12:59,552
and all I could make out
was "fire" and "abandon me."
256
00:12:59,753 --> 00:13:02,030
And something about not
receiving a thank-you card...
257
00:13:02,215 --> 00:13:03,976
- for the Statue of Liberty.
- That is crazy.
258
00:13:04,134 --> 00:13:06,331
He knows we always
intended to take him with us.
259
00:13:06,513 --> 00:13:09,586
- I mean, we love Michel, right?
- Right.
260
00:13:11,061 --> 00:13:15,260
- He's the best concierge in the world.
- Absolutely. A little abrasive.
261
00:13:15,525 --> 00:13:17,164
- Kind of impatient.
- But charming.
262
00:13:17,319 --> 00:13:19,516
And great at what he
does, knows the community.
263
00:13:19,698 --> 00:13:23,659
- Willing to go that extra mile.
- Tiny bit obnoxious.
264
00:13:23,912 --> 00:13:27,508
Makes you want to scream, "Life's
too short!" two, three times a day.
265
00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:30,949
- But...
- Picture life without him.
266
00:13:32,090 --> 00:13:35,163
- We do need him, right?
- Let's just go down there and talk to him.
267
00:13:35,386 --> 00:13:36,422
Right.
268
00:13:40,518 --> 00:13:43,352
We know where all those
Calvin Klein ads went to die.
269
00:13:43,565 --> 00:13:45,442
They look like they all
have the same mother.
270
00:13:45,608 --> 00:13:48,807
That must be one tired
supermodel. Excuse me, we're...
271
00:13:49,031 --> 00:13:52,423
- I wouldn't talk to us, either.
- Talk to a boy. A boy will be nice to you.
272
00:13:52,660 --> 00:13:53,696
Okay.
273
00:13:54,413 --> 00:13:57,805
Hi. Excuse me. We're
looking for Michel Gerard.
274
00:13:58,043 --> 00:14:00,797
- The corner of Mercer and Broome.
- Excuse me?
275
00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:03,202
Janet Jackson's on the phone.
276
00:14:03,383 --> 00:14:05,773
- No worries. Hi.
- Us?
277
00:14:05,970 --> 00:14:08,566
- Yes.
- We're looking for Michel Gerard.
278
00:14:08,808 --> 00:14:10,958
- Michel.
- Yes, Michel...
279
00:14:11,145 --> 00:14:13,421
- Janet again.
- She's very needy lately.
280
00:14:13,607 --> 00:14:16,077
You have some
guests at the front desk.
281
00:14:16,277 --> 00:14:19,236
- No worries. He comes like the wind.
- Thank...
282
00:14:19,448 --> 00:14:22,441
- He doesn't need our thanks.
- He has Janet, so...
283
00:14:22,660 --> 00:14:24,473
MICHEL: The tickets are
under the hotel's name.
284
00:14:24,497 --> 00:14:26,330
You have reservations
at Tamtam at 7:00.
285
00:14:26,500 --> 00:14:28,571
Don't order the duck.
It will take forever...
286
00:14:28,753 --> 00:14:29,982
and you will miss the curtain.
287
00:14:30,129 --> 00:14:33,168
If you have any problems at
all, you have my pager number.
288
00:14:33,384 --> 00:14:35,103
Just call me. Goodbye.
289
00:14:35,678 --> 00:14:39,116
- Look who the cat dragged in.
- Hi, Michel. We've missed you.
290
00:14:39,351 --> 00:14:41,707
Yes? I have missed you, too.
291
00:14:41,896 --> 00:14:43,295
This place is wonderful.
292
00:14:43,439 --> 00:14:46,797
You look so important, walking
around, talking to yourself...
293
00:14:47,028 --> 00:14:49,020
but you're not really
talking to yourself.
294
00:14:49,198 --> 00:14:52,555
You're actually talking to someone
else in a headset with your headset.
295
00:14:52,786 --> 00:14:56,383
- How are you?
- Me? I am wonderful, and yourselves?
296
00:14:56,625 --> 00:14:57,740
We're great...
297
00:14:57,876 --> 00:15:00,346
and we're breaking ground
on the inn on Monday.
298
00:15:00,547 --> 00:15:02,585
Yes. Is that still happening?
299
00:15:02,758 --> 00:15:05,148
- It is still happening.
- That's lovely.
300
00:15:05,345 --> 00:15:07,622
There's a small charge
for the use of the Internet.
301
00:15:07,807 --> 00:15:10,368
All instructions are in the
minibar. I'm so pleased.
302
00:15:10,561 --> 00:15:12,439
I know you're a
little upset with me.
303
00:15:12,605 --> 00:15:15,120
- Upset? I don't think so.
- I told her about the call.
304
00:15:15,317 --> 00:15:17,468
- What call?
- The call you made to me yesterday.
305
00:15:17,654 --> 00:15:20,613
The one where you told me you
called Lorelai and she didn't call back.
306
00:15:20,825 --> 00:15:23,625
- I make so many calls.
- The one where you cried.
307
00:15:23,829 --> 00:15:25,821
Are you sure it
wasn't another Michel?
308
00:15:25,999 --> 00:15:28,560
You called me. You kept me
on the phone for over an hour.
309
00:15:28,753 --> 00:15:31,348
I missed the beginning of
Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
310
00:15:31,549 --> 00:15:33,830
- When I got back, they were all gay.
- It doesn't matter.
311
00:15:33,927 --> 00:15:35,679
If there was any
misunderstanding...
312
00:15:35,846 --> 00:15:38,680
about wanting you to come with
us to the Dragonfly, we're sorry.
313
00:15:38,892 --> 00:15:42,330
- I'm not.
- Very sweet of you to say. Thank you.
314
00:15:42,773 --> 00:15:46,484
Unless you don't want to come with us.
I mean, this place is very impressive...
315
00:15:46,737 --> 00:15:48,774
and I would understand
if you didn't want to leave.
316
00:15:48,947 --> 00:15:51,019
Yes, this place is
impressive, isn't it?
317
00:15:51,242 --> 00:15:54,441
I mean, the uniform alone,
it's like working in your jammies.
318
00:15:54,664 --> 00:15:56,702
And these headsets,
are they not fabulous?
319
00:15:56,918 --> 00:15:59,752
Especially when, for example,
you're in the bathroom...
320
00:15:59,963 --> 00:16:01,875
a place one would normally
choose to be alone...
321
00:16:02,050 --> 00:16:05,009
then suddenly, bang,
someone is yakking in your ear.
322
00:16:05,221 --> 00:16:08,453
- How delightful. You can never get lonely.
- I suppose not.
323
00:16:08,683 --> 00:16:12,644
And the people who work
here? A joy: so young, so talented.
324
00:16:12,898 --> 00:16:16,689
Some of them are actors in
ambitious off-Broadway revues.
325
00:16:16,946 --> 00:16:19,416
They play cockroaches
and derelicts...
326
00:16:19,616 --> 00:16:21,927
and do Shakespeare
dressed like punk rockers.
327
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,237
It gives me chills
just thinking about it.
328
00:16:24,414 --> 00:16:26,485
Yes, extra towels are
complimentary, Matthew...
329
00:16:26,668 --> 00:16:28,944
and stop asking me who
the hottie I'm talking to is.
330
00:16:29,129 --> 00:16:32,328
I tell you what. I'll think about
it and get back to you, okay?
331
00:16:32,551 --> 00:16:35,783
- Nice to have you aboard, Michel.
- I'm busy. Go.
332
00:16:38,892 --> 00:16:40,122
Thank God.
333
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,319
Matthew, what?
334
00:16:42,481 --> 00:16:44,119
So, he invited
us to his wedding.
335
00:16:44,276 --> 00:16:47,076
- And we're having beef.
- But what was his body language like?
336
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,350
Tall.
337
00:16:48,489 --> 00:16:51,927
No, I mean, did he squirm or
back away when he invited you...
338
00:16:52,162 --> 00:16:53,561
or was he all dart y-eyed?
339
00:16:53,705 --> 00:16:57,621
Not much squirming, no backing away,
but there was a little bit of dart y-eye.
340
00:16:57,878 --> 00:17:00,268
- So he was nervous?
- We were both nervous.
341
00:17:00,465 --> 00:17:03,618
We didn't expect to run into each
other, and I think he invited us...
342
00:17:03,844 --> 00:17:05,518
'cause he felt like
he had to be nice.
343
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,991
- That does sound like Dean.
- So, do we go?
344
00:17:08,184 --> 00:17:10,381
I can't decide this.
He's your ex-boyfriend.
345
00:17:10,562 --> 00:17:12,952
- It seems weird that we go.
- Then we don't go.
346
00:17:13,149 --> 00:17:14,219
But if we don't go...
347
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,509
it may look like we're
trying to make a statement.
348
00:17:16,695 --> 00:17:18,733
- Then we go.
- If I had just stayed at Lane's...
349
00:17:18,907 --> 00:17:20,740
- for two more minutes...
- Yeah, fate.
350
00:17:20,910 --> 00:17:23,346
Yes, it is fate. Do
we ignore fate?
351
00:17:23,538 --> 00:17:25,179
Do you have any
important papers due soon?
352
00:17:25,333 --> 00:17:26,403
- Why?
- In case.
353
00:17:26,542 --> 00:17:28,521
- Fate's gonna flunk me?
- It's always a possibility.
354
00:17:28,545 --> 00:17:29,906
- Then we are going.
- Going where?
355
00:17:30,048 --> 00:17:31,607
Dean's wedding.
Fate's making us.
356
00:17:31,758 --> 00:17:34,559
I hope fate will cough up
$40 for a salad spinner for him.
357
00:17:34,763 --> 00:17:35,912
Please. There is no fate.
358
00:17:36,056 --> 00:17:39,175
What do you mean there is
no fate? Of course there is fate.
359
00:17:39,393 --> 00:17:44,071
There is no fate. There is no destiny.
There is no luck. Astrology is ridiculous.
360
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,670
Tarot cards tell you nothing.
You cannot read a palm.
361
00:17:46,862 --> 00:17:48,695
Tea leaves make
tea and nothing else.
362
00:17:48,865 --> 00:17:52,747
Jim Morrison is not hanging out with
Elvis. The Kennedys did not kill Marilyn.
363
00:17:52,996 --> 00:17:55,830
- I knew you were gonna say that.
- I came over here. My fault.
364
00:17:56,042 --> 00:17:58,478
I read your mind. It spoke
to me. We're psychic.
365
00:17:58,671 --> 00:18:01,505
- Enjoy the fries.
- Where does this leave us?
366
00:18:01,716 --> 00:18:04,436
I think that Dean's gonna
expect us to go, and it is his day.
367
00:18:04,638 --> 00:18:06,948
I don't want him to feel
like I don't care about him.
368
00:18:07,142 --> 00:18:09,019
- I know.
- I just want him to be happy.
369
00:18:09,185 --> 00:18:12,259
Okay, we'll get him a salad
spinner first thing tomorrow morning.
370
00:18:12,482 --> 00:18:13,631
Thank you.
371
00:18:14,694 --> 00:18:17,414
There you are. Honey,
I've got your mail.
372
00:18:17,614 --> 00:18:20,892
- Great.
- I'm exhausted.
373
00:18:21,202 --> 00:18:23,035
I've been looking
all over town for you.
374
00:18:23,205 --> 00:18:25,675
You could have left me a
message. I would have picked it up.
375
00:18:25,876 --> 00:18:27,948
There was something
marked "Urgent" in there...
376
00:18:28,129 --> 00:18:29,962
and I just wanted to
make sure you got it.
377
00:18:30,132 --> 00:18:31,486
Thank you.
378
00:18:31,633 --> 00:18:35,708
All right, I'm leaving. I'm
gonna kill that mail carrier.
379
00:18:35,973 --> 00:18:38,204
I don't care if he
doesn't have a tongue.
380
00:18:38,393 --> 00:18:40,385
Our new mail carrier
doesn't have a tongue?
381
00:18:40,563 --> 00:18:43,204
- You've got to be kidding me.
- That's what Patty said.
382
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,041
No, Taylor has sent me a
cease-and-desist order on the inn.
383
00:18:46,237 --> 00:18:48,673
"Dear Lorelai Gilmore, it
has come to the attention...
384
00:18:48,866 --> 00:18:50,585
"of the Historical
Preservation Society...
385
00:18:50,744 --> 00:18:52,338
"that you and Miss
Sookie St. James...
386
00:18:52,497 --> 00:18:54,475
"intend to begin construction
on the Dragonfly Inn.
387
00:18:54,499 --> 00:18:57,219
"Any proposed renovations
must be discussed and approved...
388
00:18:57,420 --> 00:18:59,650
"by the Stars Hollow
Historical Preservation Society."
389
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,600
"We must therefore
ask that all work halt..."
390
00:19:01,717 --> 00:19:03,629
"Until this procedure
has been followed."
391
00:19:03,803 --> 00:19:05,364
"Thank you, and
have a historical day."
392
00:19:05,515 --> 00:19:07,153
- Is he kidding?
- What are you gonna do?
393
00:19:08,018 --> 00:19:10,488
- I'm going to talk to him.
- Cool.
394
00:19:10,688 --> 00:19:12,489
Don't say "cool." It's
gonna be very pleasant.
395
00:19:12,566 --> 00:19:14,204
You said you were
gonna talk to Taylor.
396
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:15,874
I own my own business now.
397
00:19:16,029 --> 00:19:18,749
I'm gonna have to deal with
tiny men like Taylor all the time.
398
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:22,069
You can't go yelling at people, no
matter how historical they might be.
399
00:19:22,287 --> 00:19:23,358
Bummer.
400
00:19:23,498 --> 00:19:26,298
You have to learn to separate
the personal from the business.
401
00:19:26,502 --> 00:19:27,538
Okay.
402
00:19:27,754 --> 00:19:30,429
Remember in The Godfather,
Michael telling Sonny...
403
00:19:30,633 --> 00:19:33,069
how he was gonna kill Tattaglia
and Captain McCluskey...
404
00:19:33,262 --> 00:19:34,377
in that Italian restaurant?
405
00:19:34,513 --> 00:19:37,393
He lays out the whole thing
very calmly, very unemotionally...
406
00:19:37,601 --> 00:19:39,194
'cause that's what
you do in business.
407
00:19:39,353 --> 00:19:41,709
Yeah, but then he went and
shot two guys in the head.
408
00:19:41,898 --> 00:19:43,458
I wasn't describing that scene.
409
00:19:43,609 --> 00:19:46,250
But if you know you
already like lime...
410
00:19:46,446 --> 00:19:51,045
then you're not sampling, you're
savoring, and that's just gluttonous.
411
00:19:51,745 --> 00:19:53,339
Hi, Taylor.
412
00:19:53,832 --> 00:19:56,825
Hello there, Lorelai, Rory.
What can I get for you?
413
00:19:57,044 --> 00:20:01,165
Gosh, look at all the
choices. Really hard to pick.
414
00:20:01,426 --> 00:20:04,067
I think I'll try a scoop
of Butter Brickie Crunch.
415
00:20:04,263 --> 00:20:04,531
Rory?
416
00:20:04,543 --> 00:20:06,344
I'll try the Chocolate
Chocolate Chocolate.
417
00:20:06,516 --> 00:20:07,586
Coming right up.
418
00:20:07,727 --> 00:20:11,767
While I have you here, I
received this letter in the mail...
419
00:20:12,024 --> 00:20:14,744
and I'm having a blonde day. I
wonder if you could explain it to me.
420
00:20:14,944 --> 00:20:17,061
It says you have
to get approval...
421
00:20:17,239 --> 00:20:19,277
before you can start
construction on the inn.
422
00:20:19,451 --> 00:20:20,886
That's what I thought it said.
423
00:20:21,037 --> 00:20:23,154
I have to tell you I'm
a little concerned...
424
00:20:23,332 --> 00:20:27,122
because we have a construction
crew coming Monday, so, yikes.
425
00:20:27,378 --> 00:20:29,848
The Dragonfly is a
historical building, Lorelai.
426
00:20:30,049 --> 00:20:32,405
Yeah, but the whole
town is a historical building.
427
00:20:32,594 --> 00:20:36,066
George Washington ate, slept, or
blew his nose all over the damn place.
428
00:20:36,308 --> 00:20:38,778
He only blew his nose in
the park. You've read the sign.
429
00:20:38,978 --> 00:20:41,414
That inn needs
love. It's falling down.
430
00:20:41,607 --> 00:20:44,282
We have no intention of
ruining its historical aspect.
431
00:20:44,486 --> 00:20:48,004
- We'd just like some running water.
- Running water was not always historical.
432
00:20:48,242 --> 00:20:50,233
You're telling me I can't
put in running water?
433
00:20:50,411 --> 00:20:52,847
My God, this is incredible.
434
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,951
It's called Chocolate
Chocolate Chocolate...
435
00:20:55,125 --> 00:20:57,926
but it's seriously chocolate,
chocolate, chocolatey.
436
00:20:58,589 --> 00:21:01,503
- Sorry.
- I'm just telling you there are rules...
437
00:21:01,718 --> 00:21:03,073
and they have to be followed.
438
00:21:03,721 --> 00:21:04,756
Fine.
439
00:21:04,889 --> 00:21:08,646
What do I have to do to get the
Historical Preservation Society's...
440
00:21:08,895 --> 00:21:10,124
stamp of approval?
441
00:21:10,272 --> 00:21:13,471
- A formal presentation is necessary.
- When?
442
00:21:13,694 --> 00:21:17,404
Any town function or gathering
is open to a presentation, Lorelai.
443
00:21:17,657 --> 00:21:20,252
- Okay, so, like, the town meeting tonight?
- If you like.
444
00:21:20,453 --> 00:21:23,651
- The town meeting it is.
- Now, don't look sad.
445
00:21:23,874 --> 00:21:25,991
I went through this
with my place, too.
446
00:21:26,169 --> 00:21:29,447
Of course, I knew the rules, so I
didn't get the embarrassing letter.
447
00:21:29,841 --> 00:21:32,482
Right, okay, great. We'll
see you later, Taylor.
448
00:21:34,264 --> 00:21:36,825
- Yes?
- That'll be $3.50 for the ice cream.
449
00:21:37,018 --> 00:21:40,900
And worth every penny, let me
tell you. Sorry, but this is really good.
450
00:21:43,152 --> 00:21:46,350
So, any additional
landscaping to the town square...
451
00:21:46,573 --> 00:21:49,327
will be paid for directly
from the town park funds...
452
00:21:49,535 --> 00:21:51,413
and town park funds only.
453
00:21:51,872 --> 00:21:53,352
All righty.
454
00:21:54,500 --> 00:21:57,015
- Long one tonight.
- Astonishingly long.
455
00:21:57,212 --> 00:21:59,887
- We've got to be next, right?
- We've got to be.
456
00:22:00,091 --> 00:22:01,730
Michel, are you okay over there?
457
00:22:01,886 --> 00:22:04,037
He says the guy next to
him has unforgivable B.O.
458
00:22:04,222 --> 00:22:05,983
Michel, you're French.
How can you even tell?
459
00:22:06,059 --> 00:22:09,212
- Could we have a little quiet, please?
- Sorry, we're just waiting here...
460
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,041
very patiently, as you can
see, all ready and everything.
461
00:22:12,234 --> 00:22:14,590
Yes, the next item, people...
462
00:22:14,779 --> 00:22:17,249
is a wonderful feather
in Stars Hollow's cap.
463
00:22:17,449 --> 00:22:20,044
One of our very own,
fourth-grader Donny Pass...
464
00:22:20,245 --> 00:22:22,044
was named a runner-up...
465
00:22:22,206 --> 00:22:24,403
in the Connecticut state
story-writing contest...
466
00:22:24,584 --> 00:22:27,703
for his work entitled
The Happiest Doughnut.
467
00:22:27,922 --> 00:22:29,914
I think I'm going to give
birth out of boredom.
468
00:22:30,092 --> 00:22:32,653
Donny's mom is here tonight.
Let's give her a big hand.
469
00:22:32,845 --> 00:22:36,320
I almost think he's
doing this on purpose.
470
00:22:36,332 --> 00:22:37,045
Almost?
471
00:22:37,310 --> 00:22:38,824
Bordering on "pretty damn sure."
472
00:22:38,980 --> 00:22:41,894
I won't spoil the plot of The
Happiest Doughnut for you, folks.
473
00:22:42,109 --> 00:22:45,705
Except to say it's funny and
a little sad and truly inspiring.
474
00:22:45,948 --> 00:22:48,098
But a caveat for
all you parents...
475
00:22:48,284 --> 00:22:51,404
the dunking scene may be too
intense for preschool-aged children.
476
00:22:51,622 --> 00:22:53,534
How can a stupid
doughnut be happy?
477
00:22:53,709 --> 00:22:56,702
See, he's got you curious.
That's the genius of Donny Pass.
478
00:22:56,921 --> 00:22:58,959
I've got a bunch
of your mail. Here.
479
00:22:59,133 --> 00:23:01,603
I've got some of yours,
too, and some of AI's.
480
00:23:01,803 --> 00:23:06,481
- Will you pass this back to him for me?
- Yeah. If you hand this up to Andrew.
481
00:23:06,768 --> 00:23:07,883
Can do.
482
00:23:14,321 --> 00:23:15,960
I can't smell anything.
483
00:23:16,115 --> 00:23:19,188
I'm breathing it all in
so it's not reaching you.
484
00:23:19,411 --> 00:23:24,123
- Thanks for taking that grenade for me.
- People, could we have some order here?
485
00:23:24,418 --> 00:23:26,774
Gypsy, the letter from
my girlfriend's open.
486
00:23:26,963 --> 00:23:30,241
Yeah. Sorry, Andrew. It must
have fallen open accidentally.
487
00:23:30,468 --> 00:23:31,618
You read my private letter.
488
00:23:31,762 --> 00:23:34,721
There's nothing private in that
letter, except for the medical stuff.
489
00:23:34,974 --> 00:23:37,694
Taylor, I got your Pennysaver
and your girlie magazines.
490
00:23:38,020 --> 00:23:40,615
Those are lifestyle magazines.
491
00:23:40,815 --> 00:23:44,606
People, this meeting has degenerated
into our usual weekly anarchy.
492
00:23:44,863 --> 00:23:48,300
- I say we adjourn. See you next week.
- Taylor!
493
00:23:48,534 --> 00:23:52,131
Everyone pick up a free copy of The
Happiest Doughnut on your way out.
494
00:23:52,666 --> 00:23:55,546
We were supposed to make our
presentation about the Dragonfly.
495
00:23:55,753 --> 00:23:58,223
Yes, you're bringing
this up kind of late.
496
00:23:58,423 --> 00:24:00,381
- We've been sitting here.
- It won't take long.
497
00:24:00,551 --> 00:24:03,192
It was your idea.
You suggested this.
498
00:24:04,015 --> 00:24:07,168
Okay. People, your
children and elderly...
499
00:24:07,395 --> 00:24:10,195
are going to have to wait a
while for you to get home...
500
00:24:10,399 --> 00:24:15,111
because Lorelai Gilmore and her associate
want to discuss some proposed changes...
501
00:24:15,531 --> 00:24:17,603
to a beloved town structure.
502
00:24:17,784 --> 00:24:19,981
Thank you. Let's go,
Sookie, Augustus Gloop.
503
00:24:20,162 --> 00:24:21,881
RORY: Knock them dead.
504
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,719
Guys, I know we've
been here forever...
505
00:24:24,877 --> 00:24:28,155
but I very quickly want to tell
you what we have in mind...
506
00:24:28,382 --> 00:24:31,216
for this beautiful
Dragonfly property.
507
00:24:31,429 --> 00:24:33,865
- Historic Dragonfly property.
- That goes without saying.
508
00:24:34,057 --> 00:24:36,572
I don't think you should try
to hide the fact it's historic.
509
00:24:36,769 --> 00:24:39,569
- I'm not hiding anything.
- Proceed, please.
510
00:24:39,898 --> 00:24:41,378
Okay, we're very excited...
511
00:24:41,526 --> 00:24:43,756
How many guest rooms
will this establishment have?
512
00:24:44,322 --> 00:24:45,437
Ten.
513
00:24:46,408 --> 00:24:49,083
Yeah, 10. Anyway, the
property's been unoccupied for...
514
00:24:49,287 --> 00:24:52,440
- Parking? How many parking spaces?
- Eighteen.
515
00:24:54,044 --> 00:24:55,796
Something wrong with
the parking, Taylor?
516
00:24:55,962 --> 00:24:57,954
Two people to a room,
each with their own car...
517
00:24:58,132 --> 00:25:00,124
that's 20 cars. You don't
have enough parking.
518
00:25:00,302 --> 00:25:02,772
Some people will be driving
there together, in one car.
519
00:25:02,972 --> 00:25:06,170
- So, you have a crystal ball, do you?
- That's just common sense.
520
00:25:06,393 --> 00:25:08,783
If you have a crystal ball
I would like to borrow it...
521
00:25:08,981 --> 00:25:10,938
to take to the racetrack.
522
00:25:11,108 --> 00:25:12,941
No, I don't have
a crystal ball...
523
00:25:13,111 --> 00:25:15,312
but if the parking's not enough,
we can always add more.
524
00:25:15,490 --> 00:25:16,526
Easy.
525
00:25:16,659 --> 00:25:19,539
- "Pave paradise and put up a parking lot."
- Not what we're saying.
526
00:25:19,746 --> 00:25:22,136
I heard you're planning to
serve alcohol. Is this true?
527
00:25:22,333 --> 00:25:23,528
There will be a restaurant.
528
00:25:23,668 --> 00:25:25,706
Wine, cocktails, give the
people what they want.
529
00:25:25,879 --> 00:25:29,875
So it'll be a party spot?
Catering to that crowd...
530
00:25:30,135 --> 00:25:32,013
hip-hoppers, the Manson family?
531
00:25:32,180 --> 00:25:33,614
It's a little country inn.
532
00:25:33,765 --> 00:25:36,485
A perfect secluded spot for
murderers to revel in impropriety.
533
00:25:36,687 --> 00:25:39,157
Have you noticed? This
is not going very well.
534
00:25:39,607 --> 00:25:42,043
Taylor, everyone, there
will be millions of questions...
535
00:25:42,236 --> 00:25:45,867
some of them even legitimate,
but the bottom line is: You know me.
536
00:25:46,116 --> 00:25:48,757
I've been a part
of this town for...
537
00:25:48,953 --> 00:25:51,947
Look how big my
daughter is. For that long.
538
00:25:52,166 --> 00:25:54,807
Opening this inn has been a
dream of mine and of Sookie's...
539
00:25:55,004 --> 00:25:56,438
for most of that time.
540
00:25:56,588 --> 00:26:00,026
Along with Michel, we plan
to make this community...
541
00:26:00,261 --> 00:26:03,732
as proud of the
historic Dragonfly Inn...
542
00:26:03,974 --> 00:26:05,010
as you were...
543
00:26:05,143 --> 00:26:07,224
when this same team was
running the Independence Inn.
544
00:26:07,396 --> 00:26:09,707
You mean the place that
burned down on your watch?
545
00:26:09,899 --> 00:26:11,333
Can I slap him?
546
00:26:11,819 --> 00:26:14,129
Now, this will also help our
local economy because...
547
00:26:14,323 --> 00:26:15,472
[Cell phone ringing]
548
00:26:15,615 --> 00:26:18,176
Because we plan to employ...
Sorry. We plan to employ...
549
00:26:18,369 --> 00:26:19,690
[Cell phone ringing]
550
00:26:20,706 --> 00:26:23,938
- This call is coming from the house.
- Our house?
551
00:26:24,169 --> 00:26:26,081
- It's flashing our number.
- But we're here.
552
00:26:26,255 --> 00:26:27,576
I know. That's the weird part.
553
00:26:27,716 --> 00:26:31,073
Sookie, keep it going in
here. I'll be just a quick second.
554
00:26:31,637 --> 00:26:34,027
Okay, if you have
any questions...
555
00:26:34,224 --> 00:26:37,696
Yes, about the
Dragonfly or deodorant...
556
00:26:37,938 --> 00:26:41,170
The places to buy it, how
to apply it, that sort of thing.
557
00:26:41,401 --> 00:26:42,836
Hello?
558
00:26:42,987 --> 00:26:45,343
I responded to activation of
an alarm at your residence...
559
00:26:45,532 --> 00:26:47,763
and I apprehended a
prowler in the garage.
560
00:26:47,952 --> 00:26:49,101
- You did?
- Yes, Ma'am.
561
00:26:49,245 --> 00:26:51,681
Female, approximately
18 years old, Korean.
562
00:26:52,167 --> 00:26:55,638
- Kirk, that's Lane. You know Lane.
- I thought I knew Lane...
563
00:26:55,922 --> 00:26:57,960
but now I think she's
in some kind of gang.
564
00:26:58,133 --> 00:26:58,919
Lorelai, help.
565
00:26:58,931 --> 00:27:01,126
Their front is some
sort of musical group.
566
00:27:01,346 --> 00:27:03,702
They are a musical group,
Kirk. Honey, go sort it out.
567
00:27:03,891 --> 00:27:05,041
Got it.
568
00:27:05,185 --> 00:27:07,462
Rory's on her way over.
Brown hair, blue eyes...
569
00:27:07,647 --> 00:27:09,240
about 5'6". Don't cuff her.
570
00:27:09,399 --> 00:27:11,073
- Ten-four.
- Okay.
571
00:27:11,986 --> 00:27:14,706
- We failed you.
- He is a very unpleasant man.
572
00:27:14,907 --> 00:27:15,942
What happened?
573
00:27:16,075 --> 00:27:18,147
The second you
walked out the door...
574
00:27:18,328 --> 00:27:20,798
Taylor adjourned the
meeting over our objections.
575
00:27:20,998 --> 00:27:23,752
- Where'd he go?
- He was the first one out the door.
576
00:27:23,961 --> 00:27:25,361
Unbelievable.
577
00:27:26,589 --> 00:27:28,820
You can run, but you can't hide.
578
00:27:29,427 --> 00:27:33,024
This is cute. The
Happy Doughnut.
579
00:27:34,100 --> 00:27:36,900
Did we have a little
misunderstanding back there?
580
00:27:37,105 --> 00:27:39,016
Please don't sneak
up on me like that.
581
00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:41,580
- I almost blew my emergency whistle.
- We weren't done.
582
00:27:41,777 --> 00:27:43,218
- I thought we were.
- No we weren't.
583
00:27:43,363 --> 00:27:44,558
What more was there to say?
584
00:27:44,699 --> 00:27:47,419
Nothing was decided. You said
to explain what you're doing...
585
00:27:47,619 --> 00:27:48,734
then we can start our work.
586
00:27:48,871 --> 00:27:50,683
You can't do that until
after the walk-through.
587
00:27:50,707 --> 00:27:53,348
I'm in heels. Do you
mind? What walk-through?
588
00:27:53,627 --> 00:27:56,666
I and other members of the
Historical Preservation Society...
589
00:27:56,882 --> 00:27:58,874
need to examine the
property in person.
590
00:27:59,052 --> 00:28:00,885
You didn't think we'd
make a decision...
591
00:28:01,055 --> 00:28:02,410
based on a little chat.
592
00:28:02,557 --> 00:28:04,868
- I mentioned a walk-through.
- I don't think you did.
593
00:28:05,061 --> 00:28:08,020
- I'm mentioning it now.
- When's the walk-through?
594
00:28:08,231 --> 00:28:10,792
I'd have to check with the
other society members...
595
00:28:10,985 --> 00:28:12,784
set something up in
the next month or so.
596
00:28:12,946 --> 00:28:15,700
I have workmen coming Monday,
Taylor, the day after tomorrow.
597
00:28:15,909 --> 00:28:19,744
- Dear. That's cutting it pretty close.
- Let's do it tomorrow, please.
598
00:28:19,998 --> 00:28:21,227
- Tomorrow's Sunday.
- Yes.
599
00:28:21,375 --> 00:28:22,775
It would have to
be before church.
600
00:28:22,919 --> 00:28:25,230
- Okay, so mid-morning?
- 6:00?
601
00:28:25,422 --> 00:28:26,457
6:00 in the morning?
602
00:28:26,590 --> 00:28:28,741
Or another day. I could
take it up with the society.
603
00:28:28,927 --> 00:28:31,238
No, 6:00 is fine. 6:00 sharp.
604
00:28:31,430 --> 00:28:33,581
- See you then.
- Bright and early.
605
00:28:34,977 --> 00:28:36,888
- Good night.
- Good night. Thanks.
606

[Boys singing raucously]
607
00:28:57,759 --> 00:28:59,990
That is our Stars
Hollow High fight song.
608
00:29:00,179 --> 00:29:02,011
Could have sworn it was Mozart.
609
00:29:02,181 --> 00:29:04,696
- What is this, guys?
- Pit stop!
610
00:29:05,562 --> 00:29:09,557
- Bachelor party phase one is over.
- Our boy Dean here is tying the knot.
611

Look, I was just closing up.
612
00:29:11,153 --> 00:29:12,986
- Luke!
- Dean!
613
00:29:13,156 --> 00:29:15,228
- That's funny.
- I wasn't even trying.
614
00:29:15,409 --> 00:29:17,720
We need to refuel for
phase two. It won't take long.
615
00:29:17,912 --> 00:29:20,632
You wouldn't turn away a man
on his wedding day, would you?
616
00:29:20,833 --> 00:29:22,033
It's not your wedding day yet.
617
00:29:22,168 --> 00:29:25,128
That's what I keep telling him.
It's your last day of freedom.
618
00:29:25,381 --> 00:29:28,022
- We should get strippers, right?
- And cake.
619
00:29:28,218 --> 00:29:30,972
My name's Luke, too.
We should start a club.
620
00:29:31,306 --> 00:29:32,535
That would be swell.
621
00:29:32,683 --> 00:29:34,560
Look, why don't you
go sit down over there?
622
00:29:34,769 --> 00:29:38,002
- I'll make some coffee.
- Tomorrow is the big day, man, big day.

So, what was phase one?
627
00:29:49,247 --> 00:29:53,163
A case of beer in the JC Penney parking
lot then batting cages and laser tag.
628
00:29:53,420 --> 00:29:56,095
I've decided that
I really like beer.

some pancakes real fast...

it is you drank?

got to get strippers.

How much do you give a stripper?

00:30:35,521 --> 00:30:38,958
- That depends on what she does.
- Are they really prostitutes?

they were prostitutes.

more. Don't play Jets.

- I don't know.
650
00:30:52,127 --> 00:30:54,438
Make up a dirty
version of the fight song.
651
00:30:54,630 --> 00:30:56,827
- Yeah!
- Great idea!
652
00:30:57,009 --> 00:30:58,239
Rory.
653
00:30:58,928 --> 00:31:01,921
- What did he say?
- He is so toasted.
654
00:31:02,308 --> 00:31:04,903
- Rory.
- Did he say what I think he said?
655
00:31:05,103 --> 00:31:07,459
Guys, you know what I
think? I think it's real late...
656
00:31:07,648 --> 00:31:09,845
and that maybe you
ought to cancel phase two.
657
00:31:10,235 --> 00:31:11,909
- No way.
- Hear him out, fellas.
658
00:31:12,071 --> 00:31:14,302
Think about it, guys, how
you gonna beat laser tag?
659
00:31:16,244 --> 00:31:18,122
Is Dean sick?
660
00:31:18,289 --> 00:31:19,688
He just needs his rest.
661
00:31:20,166 --> 00:31:22,124
Why don't you march
your friends out of here?
662
00:31:22,294 --> 00:31:24,764
I'll take care of the groom,
and he'll see you all tomorrow.
663
00:31:24,964 --> 00:31:27,241
He's right, guys.
Let's saddle up.
664
00:31:27,426 --> 00:31:30,146
- Aren't we getting pancakes?
- I'm not feeling good.
665
00:31:30,347 --> 00:31:33,022
Come on, big guy. Try to walk.
666
00:31:37,232 --> 00:31:38,553
Here we are.
667
00:31:39,235 --> 00:31:40,350
Okay.
668
00:31:40,486 --> 00:31:42,637
She's smart, man. You
know, she's so smart.
669
00:31:42,823 --> 00:31:43,973
I know, I know.
670
00:31:44,116 --> 00:31:46,267
- She could probably fix the world.
- Right.
671
00:31:46,453 --> 00:31:48,684
She could team up with
Kyle. Her brains, his brawn.
672
00:31:48,873 --> 00:31:51,150
- No, not Kyle. Rory.
- Almost there.
673
00:31:51,335 --> 00:31:52,928
She's the one, you know?
674
00:31:53,505 --> 00:31:56,817
Come on, Dean, just lie
down there, stop talking.
675
00:31:57,301 --> 00:32:00,579
And the hair, pretty hair. She
has the prettiest hair, and the head.
676
00:32:00,807 --> 00:32:03,527
- What is that?
- Just your shoes.
677
00:32:04,812 --> 00:32:06,087
I miss her.
678
00:32:09,110 --> 00:32:10,783
Why didn't she love me?
679
00:32:13,366 --> 00:32:14,481
[Sighing]
680
00:32:22,753 --> 00:32:24,586
Scrubbing shower
grout with a toothbrush.
681
00:32:24,756 --> 00:32:25,872
Sure.
682
00:32:26,009 --> 00:32:28,040
Flossing with that
really, really fine floss
683
00:32:28,052 --> 00:32:30,004
that cuts between
your teeth like a razor.
684
00:32:30,514 --> 00:32:32,586
- Staring into the sun.
- Till you're blind.
685
00:32:32,809 --> 00:32:35,929
- I feel very ugly this morning.
- Join the crowd.
686
00:32:36,231 --> 00:32:38,701
That unpleasant man
and his cohorts in there?
687
00:32:38,902 --> 00:32:40,859
And have been for
about 30 freaking minutes.
688
00:32:41,030 --> 00:32:42,941
Watching a foreign
movie without subtitles.
689
00:32:43,115 --> 00:32:44,796
Getting brain freeze
from eating ice cream.
690
00:32:44,951 --> 00:32:46,022
What are you doing?
691
00:32:46,162 --> 00:32:48,916
We're listing all the things
we'd rather be doing than this.
692
00:32:49,875 --> 00:32:54,587
- What a mug. It's like he sucked a lemon.
- I've really grown to hate him.
693
00:32:58,136 --> 00:32:59,536
Nice?
694
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:00,875
So much potential.
695
00:33:01,016 --> 00:33:03,485
- Yeah.
- It needs a lot of TLC.
696
00:33:03,686 --> 00:33:07,282
And we've got an abundance
of it, Taylor. Patty, please, help.
697
00:33:07,733 --> 00:33:09,964
He's killing me here, and
you've got pull with him.
698
00:33:10,153 --> 00:33:13,146
Honey, I got my own
remodeling to do on my studio...
699
00:33:13,366 --> 00:33:14,641
that Taylor has to approve.
700
00:33:14,785 --> 00:33:16,220
I'm saving my pull for me.
701
00:33:16,371 --> 00:33:19,330
Can I have just a little teeny,
tiny bit of your pull, please?
702
00:33:19,542 --> 00:33:21,659
He's gonna see us talking.
703
00:33:22,337 --> 00:33:25,376
- Lorelai, consultation, please.
- Okay.
704
00:33:26,134 --> 00:33:28,364
- This porch is falling apart.
- I know.
705
00:33:28,554 --> 00:33:30,387
- It's got live termites.
- Big, fat ones.
706
00:33:30,557 --> 00:33:32,788
- It's a safety hazard.
- It's the first thing to go.
707
00:33:32,977 --> 00:33:34,889
To go? This porch can't go.
708
00:33:35,063 --> 00:33:38,341
- You just said it's falling apart.
- I didn't tell you to tear it down.
709
00:33:38,568 --> 00:33:40,560
It's historical. It has to stay.
710
00:33:40,737 --> 00:33:43,127
The porch is not historical.
It was added in 1980.
711
00:33:43,324 --> 00:33:45,555
- So?
- It's a 23-year-old porch.
712
00:33:45,744 --> 00:33:48,738
Unless you think Kate Hudson
is historical, it's not historical.
713
00:33:48,958 --> 00:33:52,714
Not now, but how do you think we
get historical 200-year-old structures...
714
00:33:53,005 --> 00:33:54,917
if we tear them down
when they're just 23?
715
00:33:55,091 --> 00:33:56,126
It's rotting away.
716
00:33:56,260 --> 00:33:58,217
Which means that your
guests can't walk on it.
717
00:33:58,387 --> 00:33:59,901
So they should hover over it?
718
00:34:00,056 --> 00:34:02,731
No, you could build a bridge
over it, using appropriate materials.
719
00:34:02,977 --> 00:34:07,177
Or you could build a transparent
Lucite porch over this porch...
720
00:34:07,442 --> 00:34:09,275
so people could walk
on the Lucite porch...
721
00:34:09,445 --> 00:34:11,437
and see the old porch
underneath the new porch.
722
00:34:11,615 --> 00:34:14,768
Build a clear plastic porch
over the rotting wood porch?
723
00:34:14,994 --> 00:34:17,464
With the proper permits,
and those are hard to come by.
724
00:34:17,664 --> 00:34:20,418
- That's it.
- Lorelai, watch it. I've got church later.
725
00:34:20,627 --> 00:34:22,266
What did I do to
make you torture me?
726
00:34:22,421 --> 00:34:24,095
I don't know what
you're talking about.
727
00:34:24,257 --> 00:34:26,454
The hoops, the jumping
and the fire and the hoops.
728
00:34:26,636 --> 00:34:28,035
It's just business, Lorelai.
729
00:34:28,179 --> 00:34:30,615
I pay to shop in your store.
I eat your banana splits.
730
00:34:30,807 --> 00:34:32,526
I've never
physically hurt you...
731
00:34:32,685 --> 00:34:34,846
except for that one spit wad
in the one town meeting...
732
00:34:34,980 --> 00:34:37,450
but I didn't mean for it to hit
your eye, and I apologize...
733
00:34:37,651 --> 00:34:38,880
so put me out of my misery...
734
00:34:39,028 --> 00:34:40,905
and tell me what I need
to make this happen!
735
00:34:41,072 --> 00:34:42,666
- I want an ice-cream truck.
- What?
736
00:34:42,824 --> 00:34:44,736
I want to sell ice
cream off a truck.
737
00:34:44,911 --> 00:34:46,789
I want to park it in
front of the soda shop.
738
00:34:46,956 --> 00:34:48,788
I want to ring the
bell on it every day...
739
00:34:48,958 --> 00:34:50,597
but the only place
I can park it...
740
00:34:50,752 --> 00:34:52,757
is the space that's in
front of Luke's diner.
741
00:34:52,769 --> 00:34:52,983
So?
742
00:34:53,172 --> 00:34:55,323
- You have pull with Luke.
- I guess. Maybe.
743
00:34:55,509 --> 00:34:57,945
You're friends. You can
get him to agree to this.
744
00:34:58,137 --> 00:34:59,731
- Use my pull?
- If you don't mind.
745
00:34:59,890 --> 00:35:01,851
If I get Luke to agree to
this, the madness stops?
746
00:35:01,977 --> 00:35:04,492
- If that's what you call it.
- Work begins. The porch goes?
747
00:35:04,689 --> 00:35:06,362
All expedited, nice and neat.
748
00:35:06,775 --> 00:35:09,734
- An ice-cream truck?
- An ice-cream truck.
749
00:35:11,865 --> 00:35:13,094
You can go.
750
00:35:13,242 --> 00:35:16,395
This has been a
very successful outing.
751
00:35:16,622 --> 00:35:20,014
- Back on the bus, everyone.
- Unbelievable.
752
00:35:20,252 --> 00:35:22,688
Yep. When do you think you'll...
753
00:35:22,881 --> 00:35:24,520
Shortcut to Luke's.
754
00:35:24,675 --> 00:35:26,872
How is she going to
get over Potter's Creek?
755
00:35:27,178 --> 00:35:28,327
Jump it?
756
00:35:31,977 --> 00:35:34,173
- Give him his ice-cream truck.
- What?
757
00:35:34,522 --> 00:35:37,561
I forged a stream, and I almost
got attacked by a beaver...
758
00:35:37,776 --> 00:35:40,087
- and I'm not leaving here till you agree.
- To what?
759
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,431
You don't own the street.
You own the building.
760
00:35:42,617 --> 00:35:45,497
It's a public street. Let
him park his stupid truck.
761
00:35:45,704 --> 00:35:47,821
- I'm missing something.
- Don't change the subject.
762
00:35:47,999 --> 00:35:49,394
I don't even know
what the subject is.
763
00:35:49,418 --> 00:35:51,455
If you let Taylor park
his ice-cream truck...
764
00:35:51,629 --> 00:35:54,065
not even in front, but in
front of part of the diner...
765
00:35:54,257 --> 00:35:56,933
then I can start work on the
inn. But if you don't say yes...
766
00:35:57,137 --> 00:35:59,493
then you may not have to
see his truck parked outside...
767
00:35:59,682 --> 00:36:02,152
but you will have to see my
body swinging from that tree...
768
00:36:02,353 --> 00:36:03,502
because I will hang myself.
769
00:36:03,646 --> 00:36:06,685
- I am waiting for your answer.
- Sure.
770
00:36:08,903 --> 00:36:10,178
"Sure" what?
771
00:36:10,322 --> 00:36:12,643
- He can park it there. What do I care?
- Don't kid around.
772
00:36:12,825 --> 00:36:14,808
Your life's at stake. I
wouldn't kid around.
773
00:36:14,820 --> 00:36:15,340
That easy?
774
00:36:15,537 --> 00:36:18,894
Why'd you say no when
Taylor asked you before?
775
00:36:19,125 --> 00:36:21,163
- He never asked me before.
- He never asked?
776
00:36:21,337 --> 00:36:22,487
Not about a truck...
777
00:36:22,631 --> 00:36:24,623
about a giant ice-cream
cone a few months back.
778
00:36:24,801 --> 00:36:26,360
I said no to that.
779
00:36:26,511 --> 00:36:28,742
Probably why he thought
I'd say no to the truck.
780
00:36:28,973 --> 00:36:31,090
- He never asked?
- No.
781
00:36:31,268 --> 00:36:33,829
But you're fine with this,
and he could have asked?
782
00:36:34,021 --> 00:36:35,251
It's a public street.
783
00:36:35,399 --> 00:36:37,294
- And you would have said yes?
- I'd have said yes.
784
00:36:37,318 --> 00:36:39,355
And I wouldn't have
had to go through all this?
785
00:36:39,530 --> 00:36:41,123
- Probably not.
- You know what?
786
00:36:41,365 --> 00:36:43,642
I've learned something
very valuable here today.
787
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:46,763
Come on in. Sit down
there. Take a load off.
788
00:36:46,956 --> 00:36:49,107
- Very valuable.
- Good.
789
00:36:49,293 --> 00:36:51,365
I've had a business epiphany.
790
00:36:51,629 --> 00:36:55,704
It's like I'm Bud Fox, saying,
"Thanks for the lesson, Mr. Gekko."
791
00:36:55,969 --> 00:36:57,085
This will pass, folks.
792
00:36:57,221 --> 00:37:00,340
The Lorelai you knew
is dead. Remember her?
793
00:37:00,559 --> 00:37:02,551
Eager to please, fresh of face?
794
00:37:02,729 --> 00:37:05,244
She thought that success in
business meant working hard...
795
00:37:05,482 --> 00:37:07,599
applying yourself, and
respecting your coworkers.
796
00:37:07,777 --> 00:37:10,292
And she preached that
to others. Little child!
797
00:37:10,489 --> 00:37:12,288
You should probably
get some rest.
798
00:37:12,451 --> 00:37:15,331
It's about scratching backs,
my friend, and kissing things...
799
00:37:15,538 --> 00:37:17,610
- I won't be graphic.
- It is Sunday morning.
800
00:37:17,791 --> 00:37:19,783
It's dirty. That's
what business is.
801
00:37:19,961 --> 00:37:23,034
It's smoke-filled back
rooms with exposed pipes...
802
00:37:23,257 --> 00:37:27,776
and shady players chewing on fat
cigars and twirling their dirty mustaches.
803
00:37:28,056 --> 00:37:31,846
And when you go into those rooms,
you can't be a milquetoast Muppet.
804
00:37:32,102 --> 00:37:34,572
You have to have pointy
teeth and jaws that snap.
805
00:37:34,774 --> 00:37:36,492
The meek shall
not inherit the earth!
806
00:37:36,651 --> 00:37:39,565
- Thanks for the perspective.
- Do you have any coffee?
807
00:37:39,781 --> 00:37:43,173
- I'm not giving you coffee.
- I don't have time for coffee.
808
00:37:43,410 --> 00:37:47,086
I got to go find Taylor and close this
deal. You think he's back at the store?
809
00:37:47,333 --> 00:37:49,210
Or having his dirty
mustache cleaned.
810
00:37:49,377 --> 00:37:51,767
- You're good with the truck?
- I'm good with the truck.
811
00:37:51,964 --> 00:37:53,194
Bless you.
812
00:37:55,594 --> 00:37:57,711
I'll be right with you, folks.
813
00:38:01,519 --> 00:38:02,954
So, you're up.
814
00:38:03,272 --> 00:38:04,626
Yeah.
815
00:38:04,773 --> 00:38:06,048
I'm up.
816
00:38:06,192 --> 00:38:08,833
It took me a minute or two
to figure out where I am, but...
817
00:38:09,029 --> 00:38:10,748
That's all right. You've
never been here.
818
00:38:10,907 --> 00:38:12,979
Yeah, it's not that I
remember. I just kind of...
819
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,437
looked out the window,
and that's how I could tell.
820
00:38:15,622 --> 00:38:16,851
Good. Smart.
821
00:38:17,124 --> 00:38:19,719
Little concoction of mine.
It'll help with the hangover.
822
00:38:23,049 --> 00:38:25,610
Guess I had a beer or
two too many last night.
823
00:38:25,803 --> 00:38:27,032
Yeah, it happens.
824
00:38:27,221 --> 00:38:29,054
Hope the guys didn't
bug you too much.
825
00:38:29,224 --> 00:38:31,535
- No, they were fine.
- Good.
826
00:38:33,105 --> 00:38:34,664
So, you're all dressed there?
827
00:38:34,815 --> 00:38:37,730
Yeah, you know, big
day, getting married.
828
00:38:38,529 --> 00:38:40,089
Getting married.
829
00:38:42,785 --> 00:38:45,175
I'm due in the church
in about an hour.
830
00:38:46,206 --> 00:38:47,606
Dean...
831
00:38:47,751 --> 00:38:51,108
- And I still got to pick up my tux.
- Yeah, right.
832
00:38:56,679 --> 00:38:58,671
Thanks for everything, Luke.
833
00:38:59,099 --> 00:39:01,694
Yeah, sure. Good luck.
834
00:39:10,699 --> 00:39:12,133
So, a total strikeout?
835
00:39:12,284 --> 00:39:14,674
Total. And, you know, at
first, I felt bad for them...
836
00:39:14,871 --> 00:39:18,503
so lacking in talent, yet so clueless.
Then I just felt bad for their guitars.
837
00:39:18,752 --> 00:39:20,689
Where are all the good
young musicians these days?
838
00:39:20,713 --> 00:39:22,226
My ears wanted
to fly off my head.
839
00:39:22,382 --> 00:39:25,342
I'm going to the music store to
look at things I can't afford. Coming?
840
00:39:25,553 --> 00:39:28,114
- I have to go get ready for this.
- Right. Tell me how it goes.
841
00:39:28,307 --> 00:39:30,663
- I will. Hey, Luke.
- Hey.
842
00:39:30,852 --> 00:39:34,767
- Rory, where's your mom?
- Around somewhere. Why?
843
00:39:35,024 --> 00:39:36,424
I thought I'd find
her at Doose's.
844
00:39:36,568 --> 00:39:39,089
- Did she go back to the inn?
- She was going back to the inn...
845
00:39:39,197 --> 00:39:41,038
then she was buying a
wedding present for Dean.
846
00:39:41,158 --> 00:39:42,957
She hates it when
people send gifts later.
847
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:44,320
Then, depending on the time...
848
00:39:44,413 --> 00:39:46,724
I was either gonna meet her
back at home or at the church.
849
00:39:46,916 --> 00:39:49,909
- She have her cell on her?
- I think it's dead. What's going on?
850
00:39:50,129 --> 00:39:52,201
- Or a pager or something?
- Is something wrong?
851
00:39:52,382 --> 00:39:54,181
I just need to check
something with her.
852
00:39:54,343 --> 00:39:55,857
We can stop by
after the wedding.
853
00:39:56,013 --> 00:39:59,484
Don't go to the wedding.
Don't go to Dean's wedding.
854
00:39:59,726 --> 00:40:03,198
- Why?
- I just... Don't go.
855
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,192
- Trust me.
- Okay.
856
00:40:05,358 --> 00:40:07,954
- It'd just be better this way.
- Okay.
857
00:40:08,155 --> 00:40:10,875
- So, you're not going?
- I guess not.
858
00:40:11,075 --> 00:40:14,228
Okay, good. I'll
see you guys later.
859
00:40:14,455 --> 00:40:16,845
- Yeah, Luke, I'll see you later.
- Okay.
860
00:40:20,547 --> 00:40:23,017
- Lorelai, do you have a minute?
- Sure, Kirk.
861
00:40:23,217 --> 00:40:26,051
- We've had a successful disconnection.
- No more alarm?
862
00:40:26,263 --> 00:40:27,583
- No more alarm.
- Fantastic.
863
00:40:27,723 --> 00:40:30,284
The roofer will be out tomorrow.
The repair should take a day.
864
00:40:30,477 --> 00:40:33,073
- I'm not gonna inquire about that now.
- It's all taken care of.
865
00:40:33,273 --> 00:40:35,310
I want to apologize
for any inconvenience.
866
00:40:35,484 --> 00:40:36,520
It was no big deal.
867
00:40:36,652 --> 00:40:39,533
I have this strong sense of chivalry
when it comes to women living alone.
868
00:40:39,656 --> 00:40:40,772
That's very nice.
869
00:40:40,909 --> 00:40:43,106
My family tree dates back
to a 12th-century knight.
870
00:40:43,287 --> 00:40:46,246
As a kid I thought that meant
we were related to Ted Knight.
871
00:40:46,625 --> 00:40:48,936
I wrote him a lot of letters.
He never responded.
872
00:40:49,128 --> 00:40:52,121
- That's cute, though.
- I just want you to feel safe.
873
00:40:52,341 --> 00:40:54,060
You really do, don't you, Kirk?
874
00:40:54,219 --> 00:40:56,609
So, I hope you don't mind
my watching out for you.
875
00:40:56,806 --> 00:40:58,127
Not at all.
876
00:41:00,853 --> 00:41:02,969
Thank you. I'll see you around.
877
00:41:03,232 --> 00:41:04,427
See you.
878
00:41:06,152 --> 00:41:08,872
I think I found the perfect
wedding present for Dean.
879
00:41:09,073 --> 00:41:11,873
- Sweet, not personal, classy, yet cheap.
- We're not going.
880
00:41:12,077 --> 00:41:13,193
What?
881
00:41:13,329 --> 00:41:16,322
Luke was looking for you and ran
into me, and he was all nervous...
882
00:41:16,542 --> 00:41:18,659
and then he finally just
said we shouldn't go.
883
00:41:18,837 --> 00:41:20,829
- What does that mean?
- It means we shouldn't go.
884
00:41:21,006 --> 00:41:22,485
- Did he give a reason?
- Not really.
885
00:41:22,633 --> 00:41:25,148
- I'll go talk to him.
- No, he seemed really serious.
886
00:41:25,345 --> 00:41:26,946
If you saw him, you'd
feel the same way.
887
00:41:27,098 --> 00:41:29,010
- He was kind of upset.
- About Dean's wedding?
888
00:41:29,184 --> 00:41:31,335
- Yeah.
- So, we're not going?
889
00:41:31,563 --> 00:41:34,955
- I think it's better that we don't.
- Okay. Mystery, though.
890
00:41:35,192 --> 00:41:36,228
Kind of.
891
00:41:36,903 --> 00:41:38,861
You've got your "nothing
to do" weekend back.
892
00:41:39,032 --> 00:41:40,705
Yeah, got that back.
893
00:41:46,459 --> 00:41:49,134
Mom, Kirk's following
us in a little clowny car.
894
00:41:49,546 --> 00:41:52,016
- He's watching out for us.
- Okay.
895
00:41:56,056 --> 00:41:57,171
Ready?
896
00:41:57,724 --> 00:42:00,683
No, no, it's got to look like we're
actually demolishing the porch.
897
00:42:00,896 --> 00:42:02,096
We're gonna do pretend swings.
898
00:42:02,189 --> 00:42:04,704
Which would've been easier if
we had pretend sledgehammers.
899
00:42:04,901 --> 00:42:06,336
Why do they make these so heavy?
900
00:42:06,487 --> 00:42:08,718
Even without the swing,
this is a good picture...
901
00:42:08,907 --> 00:42:12,219
of the two of you about to
record an important moment...
902
00:42:12,453 --> 00:42:14,013
for the two of you.
903
00:42:14,164 --> 00:42:14,744
Michel...
904
00:42:14,756 --> 00:42:17,123
I would love a copy
of this for my mantel.
905
00:42:17,335 --> 00:42:18,275
Such a nice moment.
906
00:42:18,287 --> 00:42:20,328
You have to be in the
picture, too, Michel.
907
00:42:20,547 --> 00:42:24,258
- Me? I don't know. All right.
- That thing have a timer on it?
908
00:42:24,512 --> 00:42:26,106
It's set. I framed the shot.
909
00:42:26,264 --> 00:42:28,141
Grab your hammer and smile.
910
00:42:28,433 --> 00:42:29,663
[Camera beeping]
911
00:42:29,936 --> 00:42:31,769
- One more for safety?
- Okay.
912
00:42:36,779 --> 00:42:37,814
What?
913
00:42:41,702 --> 00:42:46,141
Just sometimes, it hits me. This
place had a long history before us...
914
00:42:46,418 --> 00:42:48,250
has a long future after us.
915
00:42:48,503 --> 00:42:52,578
I keep thinking it's a part of our
lives, but, really, it's the reverse.
916
00:42:52,843 --> 00:42:55,597
For a little while,
I don't know...
917
00:42:55,805 --> 00:42:57,524
it's like we're
a part of its life.
918
00:42:58,350 --> 00:42:59,546
Yeah.
919
00:43:05,110 --> 00:43:06,260
