Emily: well how did the meeting go with Jason?
Richard: good, very well in fact.
Richard turns the paper to his newspaper.
Emily: well?…. Could you elaborate some?
Richard: he just wanted to know if I would want to ever go back in to business with him, cause he is finally starting a new business, and would love to have me help.
Emily: well I know that you told him no.
Richard sits there in silence and continues to flip through the paper.
Emily: Richard, you told him no didn’t you?
Richard still has no reply.
Emily: Richard?
Richard: I told him I would have to think about it.
Emily: what is there to think about?
Richard: I might want to go into business with him.
Emily: why? You have already done that, and it only leads to no good.
Richard: I only told him I would think about it. And that is the same as what I’m telling you.
Emily: Richard Gilmore!
***************
Taylor: What on Earth are you doing here?
Rory with a mischief smile: I’m a journalist, you know! And when a so much big issue is concerned, I must take note and inform all the inhabitants of Stars Hollows what it is all about!
Taylor: But it’s preposterous; you cannot do that to me!
Rory: Of course, I’m not. I’m doing it to the Stars Hollow!
Kirk: But you can’t!
Miss Patty: Shut up Kirk, Go on honey!
Taylor: But she’s the issue! She cannot write about herself!
Rory: It’s beginning to get interesting
She jots down a few notes.
Taylor: What are you writing down?
Rory: You’ll read it at the News Paper tomorrow! If I say it now, what will be the point to publish a paper?
Taylor: But that’s impossible!
Rory: Why?
Taylor: Because we haven’t discuss the matter!
Rory: What matter?
Taylor: Your journal things, here in Stars Hollow!
Rory: Yes, so what! All that will be discussed tonight will be written down, and at the disposal of reader tomorrow. That’s why I’m here!
Taylor: But I’m the Mayor of the town, young lady, and as the Mayor of the town, I haven’t given you all the authorizations for…
Rory: So you have changed the constitution, the right of the press, the right to write everything…
Taylor: Don’t play funny words with me, young lady!
Rory: Yes that what I’m saying. That was very funny when you made Kirk destroy Luke’s cantina. You put everyone before the fait accompli. You decided something, and consulted no one for that! You made the whole population in danger… Someone could have been killed! That’s the reason for the forth power, the power of the press, to say everything in order to prevent despotism acting… So now, we can begin the talking…
Lorelai: That’s my girl! The defender of the poor, and the oppressed, and the destroyed dinners…
As Rory was speaking Taylor’s face turned many colors. But as soon as Lorelai said the last words Taylor’s face turned bright red. But he went on with other matters.
***************
Paris: I can’t believe you didn’t tell me what you we’re going to do with all that money.
Rory: I’m sorry.
Paris: it is fine, but we are going to have to go find you an office, plus me your co-writer.
Rory: wait a minute how did you know I was going to ask you?
Paris: cause you told me on the phone that you would tell me when you we’re ready for my part and I just assumed, that you we’re ready.
Rory: okay I’m ready. But what about school?
Paris: well my mom and dad only pay by the semester, and the end of a semester is coming up, so I will just talk to them and they should be okay, cause they have to be sick of paying.
Rory: are you sure?
Paris: yeah.
Rory: okay.
Paris: but you will only have to do the business for a little bit.
Rory: okay.
Paris: plus if you need me to fly out here, I can fly anytime.
Rory: okay, but what are you going to do about after school? Where are you going to live?
Paris: I can look for a house out here.
Rory: okay this is going to work.
Paris: of course it is going to work. Why wouldn’t it?

Emily: so Rory, tells us all about The WIM?
Richard: yes Rory tells us.
Rory does a small smile and looks at her mom.

Rory doesn’t get to finish her sentence before it is interrupted by the maid.
Mandy: Dinner is ready mam.
Emily gets up and looks around.
Emily: well Rory, you continue after dinner.
Rory looks around in please.
Richard leads them into the dinning room, followed by Emily, Rory starts to follow, but it is soon stopped by Lorelai.
Lorelai: Rory, hey what was up back there?
Rory: what do you mean?
Lorelai: with the answers? You could have said a little more.
Rory: I know I just…… I feel weird talking about something I quit, I’ve never quit anything in my whole life!
Lorelai: what about dance?
Rory: I didn’t quit dance!
Lorelai: you didn’t??
Rory: no watch this.
Rory does a few moves.
Lorelai: oh! So when you bust the moves in the shower, that means you didn’t quit dance?
Rory: exactly.
Lorelai laughs.
Lorelai: honey, it’s okay to quit some things, everyone does. It will be okay.
Rory sighs.
Rory: okay mom I hope your right.
Emily: are you coming girls?
Lorelai: come on Rory, lets find out what the new weird thing is tonight.

Emily: now that everyone is done, Rory Richard and I have a little early birthday present for you.
Rory with eyes gleaming.
Rory: oh you shouldn’t have.
Emily leaves.
Rory looks over at Lorelai who is about to jump up and down.
Rory: oh what no snappy comment?
Lorelai: no, I thought I would take a look at it before I jumped.
Rory: oh I see.
Lorelai: yes you do, are you not glad that you aren’t blind?
Rory: yes, mom very happy.
Emily comes back, and hands a little envelope to Rory.
Rory opens the envelope.
Rory: oh my gosh you shouldn’t have.
Lorelai: what they get you?
Rory gets up and hugs Emily and Richard.
Emily: well we thought that since you don’t have to take a vacation, you could go for as long as you wanted, and we will pay when you want to come home.
Rory: you still shouldn’t have.
Emily: well I just thought we should.
Rory: thank you.
Lorelai: guys I still don’t know what this amazing gift is?
Rory sits down next to Lorelai.
Rory: there a first class ticket to Orange County California!
Lorelai: No Way! How many tickets??
Rory: 4 one way.
Lorelai: 4?
Rory: yeah 4.
Lorelai looks at Emily and Richard in confusion.
Emily: yes Lorelai 4, one for Rory, one for Paris, one for Lane, and one for….
Lorelai: me?
Emily says sarcastically: no Lorelai for the Queen of England. Yes You!
Rory gets up to hug them.
Rory: thank you guys so much you did not have to do this.
Richard: oh but we did, you need to see the site’s before you can’t see them anymore.
Rory looks confused.
Richard: I only mean, who knows how long it will be until you can go to California, isn’t this your first time?
Rory: yes it is, and I’m really excited. Thanks you guys.
Emily: well you are very welcome, but doesn’t you plane leave tomorrow so you probably should be getting home to pack shouldn’t you?
Rory looks at the plane tickets.
Rory: yes we probably should.
Rory and Lorelai get up.
Lorelai: is this a first?
Rory: for what?
Lorelai: to have grandma ask us if it is time to leave?
Rory: hmm…… I don’t think so.
Rory and Lorelai look for a minute at the door and then they both look at each other.
Lorelai and Rory: When they we’re having trouble!
Emily comes in from behind them with their coats.
Emily: who we’re having trouble?
Rory turns around.
Rory: what?
Lorelai turns around.
Lorelai: what was that?
Emily hands the girls their coats.
Emily: I said who we’re having trouble.
Rory and Lorelai look at each other.
Lorelai: oh Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie.
Emily: who?
Rory: celebs.
Emily: oh someone who means nothing to us.
Emily opens the door.
Lorelai: what how can you say that? Brad and Jolie, mean the world too us, since they have adopted a kid from every place in the world.
Rory and Lorelai head through the door and turn around.
Lorelai: you can not say that mom.
Emily: good night girls.
Lorelai: mom, but….
Rory: good night grandma, thanks again for the tickets you didn’t have too.
Emily: I know.
Emily shuts the door.
Lorelai and Rory look at each other.
Lorelai: do you think they are having trouble?
Rory: I don’t know grandpa didn’t say much at dinner, or after dinner.
Lorelai: well it is kind of hard when you got chatty Cathy talking 100 miles per hour.
Rory: I guess you are right.
Lorelai and Rory head for their jeep.
***************
Rory: Lane, what do you mean you don’t think you can go?
Lane: well I can’t just dump the kids on my mom, or on Zach that isn’t fair.
Rory: oh well now that you give me some more information you are right.
Lane: I want to go so bad, but I just can’t leave the kids on Zach, or my mom.
Rory: I know, I completely understand, your mother now, you don’t have time to go jump off of the Eiffel tower if wanted.
Lane: I could go, but I just don’t really want to die that way.
Rory laughs.
Lane: I’m really sorry Rory.

Lorelai: you can bet I am, and Paris is pretty sure she is going too.

Paris: Your delivery guy is a sore loser.
Rory giggles.
Rory: what did you have time to play with him?
Paris: a staring contest, well I won, and he started yelling at me, but I just shut the door in his face, he is paying for this pizza.
Lorelai looks at Rory and laughs.
Lorelai: are you ready for tomorrow girls?
Paris: California here we come.
Rory: why does that sound so familiar?
