We question why Michel would go to a diner every day.  We  consider whether Dean’s reaction to finding out about the accident with Rory’s Car was to much or actually was a tame reaction.  We talk about both the story of Nanook of the North, and The Wind Done Gone with Simon assuring that Gone with the Wind is historically inaccurate . Simon then reminisces about Office Max and how it has changed since 2002. We look at the continuing theme of Jess being blamed entirely for the car accident and everyone being patronizing to Rory.

Both of us engage in fan canoning on whether Babette was a Hari Krishna. Simon and Abby discuss Richard’s reasons for wanting Lorelai to be his secretary, suggesting it is sentimental even if it is a bit ridiculous. Simon explains the plot of the movie The Jazz Singer. We end with a massive freakout by Abby about the Donuts Luke allowed Lorelai to eat at the end.
