Genuinely one of my favorite episodes of the show! I love that Lorelai gets to have this really earnest and cliche experience that she never had: graduating in front of proud parents. So sweet. And on the Rory end of things, I really really love this episode for her. As a character, she has so rarely to this point made impulsive decisions based on emotion, and I remember watching this as a young teenager when it aired and finding her actions in this episode so relatable. And that final scene with her and Lorelai also just brings back strange nostalgia of having those kind of moments when I was Rory's age: I know I've messed up, and you are so overcome with panic and guilt that you kind of punished yourself enough. Anyways, great episode, and can't wait to watch your reaction!!

Feels like every week I wanna say that an episode is my fave - season 2 might be unmatched

Was it Rory's own fault that she missed the graduation? Yes. Do I blame Jess anyway? You better believe it.

This is quite possibly my favorite sentimental moment between Lorelai and her parents. And it has so many layers. Not only are they proud of her, but in a way, they're also kinda coming to terms with the fact that despite life not going how they planned for her, they're still just happy to be a part of it

So relaxing to watch this after a long trip yesterday! What a lovely ep, and your reaction makes me giggle a lot.

When Jess called Rory during Lorelai's 'school's out' party, Rory asked him what he'd been doing and Jess said he was hanging in the park. She asked, "Central Park"? He said, "No, Washington Park"... so that's how she knew where Jess would be. He had no idea Rory was coming to see him!

To drive to NYC from Hartford, Connecticut, is about 1.5 hours. Taking a bus would make it at least 2 hours! I grew up in Connecticut, right where Stars Hollow would be. My town was just like Stars Hollow, though! Best place to grow up! I lived there until we moved to North Carolina 2 years ago! We miss the town, and our friends and family, but we don't miss the frigid winters with all the snow!

Jess would have known she was on the wrong bus!

Rory is simply not a real New Yorker because at no point did she say "I'm walking here!"

Darcie I know you've been watching this show too much when you side with Paris in a conversation we didn't see onscreen. You know she terrorizes people for sport.

A little rebellion is okay from Rory. Her youth also shows out at the end as she can't process that she's fallen for Jess & moved on from Dean.

I like where your head's at.

Lorelai gets about the reception you'd expect from Luke post-blowout. I love her continued quest to be fed elsewhere. I appreciate how she takes being ditched for Jess. She doesn't like him for innumerous reasons. Knowing Rory has fallen for him she's wisely picking her battles & not running him down. Jess's snide comment about her throwing darts at his picture definitely speaks to his victim complex but also hints at insecurity.

It truly was the best! The town only had @ 1200 people in it, but now we live in a much larger town, that only has 432 people living in it... much more remote, but we love it! We've settled in quite nicely down south!
