The top community for Gilmore Girls. Keeping Gilmore Girls alive and news on what the Gilmore cast is up to now. Daily updates since 2005.
In ‘The Perfect Dress‘, Paris reveals one of her oddities. That she can’t sleep through the night… because of a movie. And one you wouldn’t expect.
“I, as you know, haven’t slept through the night since the first time I saw the Wizard of Oz, thank you Mom.”
Now, I wonder…. what is it about this movie that keeps Paris awake??

In ‘He’s Slippin’ ‘Em Bread… Dig?‘, Paris doesn’t seem surprised that Rory is coming back to Yale. She says:
Rory: I just wanted to tell you something. Brrrrrrrrrrring, I’m coming back to Yale!
Paris: What was that sound?
Rory: It was a drumroll.
Paris: You really had to do a drumroll for that? Of course you’re coming back to Yale. What are you gonna do without a college degree–drive a forklift?
Why wasn’t Paris surprised by this when it was such a huge concern to her before?

In ‘But I’m A Gilmore‘, Paris gives Doyle a clean shirt to wear. On the shirt, it reads, “Women belong in the house… and the senate.” It got me to thinking… if Paris were to run for a political position – heck, maybe even for President some day! – would you vote for her? Why or why not?

In ‘Girls in Bikinis, Boys Doin’ The Twist‘, Rory and Paris decide to escape the frigid Winter at Yale by going down to Florida… during Spring Break. Now, they don’t seem much like “Spring Break” kind of girls, do they? So why did they go? Was it all about the heat?
The girls both did their best to enjoy Spring Break (after their movie night) – going to the beach, going clubbing, and Paris kissing Rory. I think they discovered that “their” Spring Break enjoyment (the movies) were better suited to them than the wild stuff they tried. What do you think?

In ‘A Family Matter‘, we find out that Paris hasn’t yet broken up with her “boyfriend”, Jamie, though she’s dating Asher Fleming, something we discussed a few days ago.
Though apparently ga-ga over Asher, and “done” with Jamie (pshaw, who needs a boy your own age when you have a 60-year-old teacher), we find out that Paris has yet to tell Jamie their relationship is over. Instead, she merely blows off plans they had for the night and is rude to him on the phone.
Why does Paris do this? Is she too cowardly to break up with Jamie? Is he her “back up”, in case Asher is just a fling? Or does she simply not care enough to do anything about it?

In ‘The Nanny and the Professor‘, Rory keeps catching Paris kissing Asher Fleming, a professor who is 60 years old! Paris is hiding this from Rory, lying and saying she’s still with Jamie, but Lorelai suggests to Rory that probably Paris & Asher are doing “older man things” aside from just kissing.
I want to know what you think about this relationship… is Paris simply in awe of a man so smart, thereby thinking him attractive despite his age? Is she being taken advantage of? Does she truly not care about his age? If so, why try to hide it all from Rory?
And later, when it seems like Paris wants to ooh and ahh about it to Rory, saying dreamily “I smell like pip tobacco,” she seems to be head over heels for Asher… or maybe just the concept of him, or his attention for her. Maybe she feels more special because someone “important” is paying attention to her?

In ‘The Big One‘, Rory gets her “big” envelopes from Harvard and presumably also Yale and another school. However, Paris was not so lucky. First off, who was surprised that Paris didn’t make it into Harvard?
After finding out she didn’t make it into Harvard, Paris has a bit of a meltdown when giving a speech at Chilton. She ends up breaking down not just about Harvard, but about just having slept with her boyfriend, Jamie.
“I’m not going to Harvard, I’m not going to Harvard. I had sex, but I’m not going to Harvard.”

Paris had earlier confided the sex news to Rory, admitting that she thought sex was ‘inevitable’ in a relationship. I’m not sure she feels she had sex for the right reasons. Why do you think she took this step?
Now Paris says she feels like a slut and worries that Jamie won’t love her, now that she’s not a Harvard girl.
“After all the trouble this sex thing has caused me, I had better’ve been good.”
It’s not clear to me which thing upsets Paris more – having sex or not getting into Harvard. What is clear, though, is that Paris isn’t sure of herself or her decisions. Being rejected from Harvard maybe made her feel like Jamie would reject her too. What do you think?
