    i feel that lorelai feels that by telling her mom about her breakup, it will be another thing that she will feel dissapointed about with her.

    Luke has a new hat to stop reminding himself of the relationship he had with lorelai

    Caroline reminds me of lorelai because just the way she acts at the party is how u would expect lorelai to act when she was young because she hated those parties…i liked how that lorelai was looking at her and she reminded her of her own childhood…like she was reflecting back on her life.

    lorelai is surprised to find the cotillion fun because as a child she hated that stuff

  2. Jenny says:

    When Emily says to Lorelai “I like your hair like that”, the look on her face is great.
