- 2:22Speaker 1: music for the wedding. The opening, sukis Laurela to invite
- 2:26Speaker 1: Emily and Richard, but then Lorelei tells him that it's they.

- 3:09Speaker 1: and sees Jess. He tells her that he moved back,
- 3:13Speaker 1: and then Rory impulsively kisses him. Renie, there's a lot
- 3:19Speaker 1: going on in this thing, and she enjoyed the level.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Of drama upon me as it.
- 3:24Speaker 1: Was happening again.
- 3:26Speaker 2: It's been a long time. I've completely revisited it, like
- 3:29Speaker 2: it was a complete rewatch for me, like a new experience.
- 3:32Speaker 2: So I was really enjoying the newness of it, and
- 3:36Speaker 2: it was it was exciting. Trouble e way, you're comfortable.
- 3:43Speaker 1: You think Suki getting married has Loria reflecting on her
- 3:46Speaker 1: own love life?
- 3:48Speaker 2: Oh and thought of that? Oh yeah, Laura is so
- 3:53Speaker 2: like well behaved as a human and such a mature
- 3:56Speaker 2: friend that she would never show that to Suki, which
- 4:02Speaker 2: is nice. They don't even address that, but yeah, your
- 4:05Speaker 2: average chick would probably feel that loss.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Mm hmmmm. Were you rooting for the moment when the
- 4:16Speaker 1: camera revealed Jess was standing there towards the end.
- 4:20Speaker 2: No, it was, well, it was it was kind of
- 4:25Speaker 2: a like m m oh, okay, here this guy. All right,

- 4:56Speaker 1: that kiss they had, right, it's been a long time
- 4:59Speaker 1: coming to to the best of your recollection, Is that
- 5:03Speaker 1: the first time they've kissed it?
- 5:05Speaker 2: Right? Is it?
- 5:06Speaker 1: I don't think I think it is. That's their first kiss? Maybe? Right?

- 9:04Speaker 2: gracious Like, OKAY i hear. You you're coming to me for,
- 9:07Speaker 2: peace And i'm taking that in and he's kind of
- 9:10Speaker 2: taking his time with. It that's my. Feeling that's that's
- 9:13Speaker 2: MY i think that's WHAT i.
- 9:15Speaker 1: Felt do you think he doesn't have the bandwidth to
- 9:17Speaker 1: even deal with it and? Her do you think he's
- 9:20Speaker 1: realizing this is this is just too much for?
- 9:22Speaker 2: Me well he's a little slower moving with the whole
- 9:25Speaker 2: movie getting over it. Thing but isn't that just men and?
- 9:28Speaker 2: Women like she wants to she wants to apologize openly
- 9:34Speaker 2: and make official, peace and he's, Like i'm interacting with.

- 9:55Speaker 1: yeah but he.
- 9:57Speaker 2: Doesn't seem angry in that interaction to. Me he just
- 10:00Speaker 2: kind of seems, like.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Right well.
- 10:02Speaker 2: Stressed, yeah, yeah, yeah it must be weird for, you
- 10:06Speaker 2: like analyzing, it but, yeah.
- 10:08Speaker 1: No it's like a different. Person. Yeah well, yeah so long.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Ago it's so long, ago and it wasn't actually YOU i, know, RIGHT.
- 10:16Speaker 1: I can be, objected right.
- 10:17Speaker 2: Exactly but it's kind of funny to talk to you
- 10:19Speaker 2: about that.
- 10:20Speaker 1: Guy you, know what do you think is this push
- 10:23Speaker 1: him further away From laurala because he can't seem to
- 10:25Speaker 1: get back to where they were?
- 10:26Speaker 2: Before?
- 10:26Speaker 1: Right?
- 10:27Speaker 2: Oh does it push him away that he's not more
- 10:29Speaker 2: receptive to, her because.
- 10:31Speaker 1: If you're not moving, forward you're moving, backwards right in these.
- 10:34Speaker 2: THINGS i DON'T i don't remember it being like a
- 10:39Speaker 2: really like him shutting Her, okay so so she was,
- 10:43Speaker 2: like this, happened let's make, peace and he was just
- 10:46Speaker 2: kind of like, raw and she's, like, OH i Get
- 10:50Speaker 2: i've been left, right that's kind of what.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Happened he was Stone he wasn't even looking at her,
- 10:54Speaker 1: practically he was just stone walling the whole.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Thing, Okay, WELL i assume, That. LAURA i was, thinking
- 11:02Speaker 2: he just needs to he just needs a, Minute he
- 11:05Speaker 2: just needs a little, space and he'll get over, it
- 11:07Speaker 2: because obviously we both were screaming at each other about our.
- 11:10Speaker 2: Kids BUT i don't, know she seems like a pretty patient.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Person she is, actually isn't She she really.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Is, yeah she's really patient and forgiving and, yes realistic
- 11:27Speaker 2: ABOUT i THINK i don't. Know, well she's been through
- 11:31Speaker 2: she's already been through it with men quite, young in
- 11:34Speaker 2: a high stakes, setting and she's okay with. It she's
- 11:40Speaker 2: kind of like found. Out it seems like that holding
- 11:43Speaker 2: onto the holding onto anything doesn't do her any good
- 11:46Speaker 2: because she's.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Got stuff to, do right, Rug polls don't bother. Her
- 11:50Speaker 1: she's been. Thrown, yeah you.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Don't get the sense that she freaks out.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Easily been, there done. That, yeah that's to just apologize
- 12:00Speaker 1: and apologize and apologize and hope for the best and.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Whatever, right she's done her, part and it's kind of
- 12:06Speaker 3: one of those reasons why she's such a fun, character
- 12:10Speaker 3: because she's not, boring but she's still kind Of OH
- 12:13Speaker 3: i could use a little of.
- 12:14Speaker 2: That not a reactive, person right, right.

- 13:27Speaker 2: see the love in those Little this is the a
- 13:32Speaker 2: Nice this is HOW i like that the show has
- 13:35Speaker 2: the moments towards the men because they sort of separate.
- 13:38Speaker 2: SOMETIMES i feel like there's the girls and there's the,
- 13:40Speaker 2: boys and the way that the it shows how how
- 13:46Speaker 2: men are vulnerable and it's not the. Same so it
- 13:50Speaker 2: was just a really, sweet, vulnerable realistic male moment and
- 13:57Speaker 2: it must be, awful like it's kind of. That it
- 13:59Speaker 2: was like sucteinct in that. Moment you, see, gosh how

- 14:10Speaker 2: see well you don't see why his son isn't with,
- 14:12Speaker 2: him but you just see that like they're not that,
- 14:13Speaker 2: close but that there's a loss there and a desire
- 14:18Speaker 2: for both of.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Them he Just luke needs to be respected and he
- 14:22Speaker 1: wants to play and he and he wants to be
- 14:24Speaker 1: there for that. Boy you, know he really feels it
- 14:27Speaker 1: because That's jesus last. Chance there's nobody in his life
- 14:31Speaker 1: that's going to pull him out of his train wreck
- 14:33Speaker 1: of his. Life, yeah so there's real compassion. There.

- 17:50Speaker 2: cares so. Much SO I i related to. THAT i liked.
- 17:56Speaker 2: THAT i thought that was that was sweet and made
- 18:00Speaker 2: me like her more.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Basic human. Psychology it's tough growing. Up what a funny
- 18:10Speaker 1: scene that she pulled well in two, areas but in, Likability, no.

- 19:35Speaker 2: make people feel.
- 19:36Speaker 1: Bad rory is To paris As luke is To. Jess
- 19:41Speaker 1: a lot of. Compassion there a lot of.
- 19:43Speaker 2: Chaos, yeah she's like her.
- 19:45Speaker 1: Parent yeah, yeah somebody's got a, razor, Right.
- 19:50Speaker 2: Yeah that's that's a good. Point it is a sort
- 19:55Speaker 2: of yeah, caretaker yeah, yah which is sweet too because
- 20:01Speaker 2: they're just little little. Ladies they're little, kids and it's
- 20:05Speaker 2: like it's like it's also it's also real for, them you,
- 20:09Speaker 2: know it's a big. Deal all of, it all.
- 20:11Speaker 1: These, dynamics all, Right laura And. Christopher there was a
- 20:15Speaker 1: lot Of, christopher a lot Of LAUREL i in THIS
- 20:18Speaker 1: i can't be objective, Here but what did you think of? This?
- 20:22Speaker 2: WELL i like my first thought was how Sweet laura
- 20:27Speaker 2: And christopher were as, Friends that they have an obvious
- 20:31Speaker 2: physical chemistry just based on the, past but that they
- 20:36Speaker 2: were both kind of okay with, it like they could
- 20:39Speaker 2: rise above. It when he was spoken for in the
- 20:42Speaker 2: beginning and And LAURA i was just, LIKE i don't,
- 20:46Speaker 2: know she was just his, friend but there was a
- 20:49Speaker 2: really nice energy between, them and it just seemed like
- 20:53Speaker 2: they were kind of nailing the whole co parenting the.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Best it was like the best scenario because they were
- 20:59Speaker 2: both just being they were both coming from a place
- 21:04Speaker 2: of thinking the best of each. Other and then the,
- 21:08Speaker 2: CHEMISTRY i could see how that would happen because they
- 21:11Speaker 2: do have, chemistry and there is the, past and he just.
- 21:15Speaker 1: Seems to, me does he seem to you like he
- 21:18Speaker 1: he comes off so much younger Than. LAURA i, yeah
- 21:22Speaker 1: so less, capable so much. YOUNGER i, MEAN i know
- 21:25Speaker 1: the same, age but he comes off like, he's you,
- 21:28Speaker 1: know five to seven years, younger and.
- 21:31Speaker 2: He's, yes well he's the guy that he. Was he hasn't, changed, right.
- 21:36Speaker 1: Right that's the that's the immature.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Guy, yeah and she's always loved him because of their
- 21:42Speaker 2: nice chemistry and because of the good vibes between, them
- 21:45Speaker 2: but he always lets her down because that's how he.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Is, yeah this is a big one.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Thought oh, YEAH i was, like oh and he had
- 21:54Speaker 2: to do it? Right why she walks down the, Aisle
- 21:57Speaker 2: that's like it couldn't wait ten? Minutes. Whoa that's when
- 22:05Speaker 2: you really Respect LAURA, i because she's just, Like, okay
- 22:09Speaker 2: have a great. Baby, wow that's a sure.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Lady right? Right what else can you? SAY i, mean
- 22:19Speaker 1: these guys are, now they're. Intimate you, know they're together.
- 22:22Speaker 1: Again everybody's.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Happy everybody's so. HAPPY i Mean rory just like The
- 22:29Speaker 2: Rory park is, like why did they make this huge
- 22:32Speaker 2: announcement like one day after they got together for one?
- 22:36Speaker 2: Night like that seemed a little. Premature they could have
- 22:38Speaker 2: waited a. Minute there was that like they made this
- 22:42Speaker 2: huge national announcement at the, Wedding like, WELL i mean
- 22:45Speaker 2: they told several people where it's like it could be
- 22:49Speaker 2: wise to take a little. Time BUT i guess they
- 22:53Speaker 2: just were. BOTH i Think LAURA i was the one
- 22:55Speaker 2: who was just like so. Trusting she had to get
- 22:58Speaker 2: hurt again to sort of slow. Down, maybe but he's
- 23:03Speaker 2: just the one who's like more impulsive. Anyway. Maybe. Well oh,
- 23:08Speaker 2: yeah it was Very it didn't feel. Unrealistic though it
- 23:13Speaker 2: felt like things like, this it seemed like it wasn't like.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Unbelievable it was just more. Information mm.
- 23:21Speaker 1: Hm tough to. Watch whole thing was tough to.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Watch but that's why it was so hard to, watch
- 23:25Speaker 2: because it was like you could see the best and
- 23:28Speaker 2: the worst of. EVERYBODY i, mean he didn't just like
- 23:31Speaker 2: change his mind for no. Reason it was a legitimate.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Reason he just didn't handle it too.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Well it's just such A i, mean his his. Character you,
- 23:44Speaker 1: know it's LIKE i, know he's not. Cheating he's like
- 23:48Speaker 1: With LAUREL, i which you know he gets he gets
- 23:51Speaker 1: a pass for for some reason because It's LAUREL, I.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Right everybody Wants laurela to be, happy so they have
- 23:56Speaker 1: this blind. Spot, yeah what does can pontentially do to? Her?
- 24:00Speaker 1: Again and this guy he just when she, said when
- 24:05Speaker 1: he turned around for the last time and looked at
- 24:08Speaker 1: her and he was depressed that he had to leave
- 24:11Speaker 1: because his girlfriend was pregnant with his. Kid oh, yeah
- 24:16Speaker 1: so he's got so. Much how do you how do
- 24:20Speaker 1: you even come. Back, wow, guy go take care of your.
- 24:25Speaker 1: Kid you got a baby, coming you. Know oh my,
- 24:28Speaker 1: God oh, terrible, terrible. Terrible that was.
- 24:33Speaker 2: Awful but that's a big, episode.
- 24:35Speaker 1: So, right you have to have.
- 24:37Speaker 2: It, yeah and it makes you love lauralit, more which is.
- 24:42Speaker 2: COOL i, mean it's just, deeper it goes deep. Whatever but,
- 24:48Speaker 2: YEAH i did want to punch him in the. Face
- 24:50Speaker 2: BUT i wanted to punch him in the face immediately
- 24:53Speaker 2: because he was just a little too familiar WITH i don't,
- 24:56Speaker 2: KNOW i just, well you worry right away that he's
- 25:00Speaker 2: being a little irresponsible when he's, like should we just
- 25:03Speaker 2: make out on this?
- 25:04Speaker 1: Couch right when he sat down with the arm and
- 25:07Speaker 1: then she leaned back on his, arm and it was, like,
- 25:09Speaker 1: whoa this is a little too much, hair right too.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Fast you, worry, RIGHT i MEAN i worried right. Away
- 25:15Speaker 2: but THEN i was, like, well, look they really care
- 25:18Speaker 2: about each, other AND i, mean this is how these
- 25:22Speaker 2: things sometimes, happened so maybe and then it's like and
- 25:26Speaker 2: then they sit down and talk about it and it
- 25:27Speaker 2: all looks really of off, board and the worry was
- 25:31Speaker 2: the right. One but she would never have, KNOWN i,
- 25:34Speaker 2: guess because they hadn't really revisited this since What roy was.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Born, YEAH i. GUESS i, mean haven't they flirted? AROUND
- 25:43Speaker 1: i can't even, remember don't. Know it's like this guy's
- 25:48Speaker 1: always digging, around, right and he's looking for an, opportunity rooting,
- 25:52Speaker 1: around showing, up.
- 25:55Speaker 2: Just showing up and rooting, around.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Showing up in his, shirts my.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Shirts look at, ME i have a. Shirt look at.
- 26:04Speaker 1: Me i'm. Back it's on. Touck i'm. Casual, Now i'm so.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Casual i'm amazing Because i'm even here at. All, like
- 26:15Speaker 2: And rory's also so mature because she's just like so
- 26:21Speaker 2: kind with him and expects, nothing but she's so happy
- 26:25Speaker 2: for what he has to. Bring she's just a really
- 26:28Speaker 2: lovely little child of. Divorce you, know we're not.
- 26:31Speaker 1: Divorce you, know we skipped over that one scene THAT
- 26:48Speaker 1: i thought was so. Funny you, know they went To
- 26:50Speaker 1: friday night dinner And emily was offended at the when's
- 26:56Speaker 1: the wedding a week from? Now she, Could, oh so
- 26:57Speaker 1: it's a pity. Invite so the whole pity invite thing was.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Great and Then Laurel laurelai trying to change the. Subjects
- 27:03Speaker 1: this isn't doesn't.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Again it was like you see all, that like how
- 27:11Speaker 2: they they work together as a, team as a, Team
- 27:15Speaker 2: richard And emily worked together as a team because they're
- 27:18Speaker 2: both like right on the same page. Too he's like
- 27:20Speaker 2: that was a pity in, Fight they're, like, wow they're
- 27:23Speaker 2: really hooked up, Too like it's, nice it's kind of.
- 27:26Speaker 2: Sweet everybody's so close in their. Corners it.
- 27:31Speaker 1: Was it was very funny When emily showed up at
- 27:35Speaker 1: the wedding And laurela's questioning, her And emily, says, well
- 27:41Speaker 1: it would have been equally as rude not to show
- 27:43Speaker 1: up knowing that we didn't have anything else to. Do
- 27:46Speaker 1: that's called rising, above but be condescending her own daughter
- 27:53Speaker 1: by saying that's called rising.
- 27:54Speaker 3: Above so fun she really.
- 27:59Speaker 2: Is and so pretty and like put. TOGETHER i just
- 28:04Speaker 2: like WHENEVER i see her after not seeing her for a,
- 28:06Speaker 2: while and she's so pretty and, right everything is just
- 28:11Speaker 2: you just like where of me wants to be like,
- 28:13Speaker 2: that you, know and so just.
- 28:17Speaker 4: Spicy is there a part of you that wishes that
- 28:22Speaker 4: That lorela had fought harder instead of just sort of
- 28:26Speaker 4: accepting it and being so classy about, it you?
- 28:29Speaker 1: Know The christopher thing, no, no The christopher, thing or
- 28:32Speaker 1: does that make her look?
- 28:33Speaker 2: BAD i think your average woman would have at least
- 28:37Speaker 2: thrown a little, tantrum made it about, herself and possibly
- 28:41Speaker 2: drawn this focus from the bride and felt stupid about it.
- 28:46Speaker 2: Later so she did the best. Thing she just. Had, like,
- 28:50Speaker 2: really maybe she's been through enough that she knows and
- 28:53Speaker 2: maybe maybe it's just Being emily's. Daughter she knows how
- 28:56Speaker 2: to how to have dignity in the face of. Indignity
- 29:01Speaker 2: but uh, NO i. DON'T i. DON'T i think she
- 29:06Speaker 2: knows him well enough that and she doesn't want him
- 29:12Speaker 2: there because she yelled at. Him she wants him there
- 29:14Speaker 2: because he wants to be, there and she wants to
- 29:18Speaker 2: let him maybe have the consequences of his own, choices so,
- 29:21Speaker 2: that you, know let him say with that without her
- 29:25Speaker 2: harping voice in his ear to. Blame, NO i doubt
- 29:28Speaker 2: that was. WHAT i doubt that was really her forethought about.
- 29:32Speaker 1: It but you, know here's a. Thought maybe she didn't
- 29:37Speaker 1: fight for him because she knew in her heart of
- 29:40Speaker 1: hearts that he was not capable of balancing his own
- 29:46Speaker 1: family and also being there For, rory so she just
- 29:49Speaker 1: gave him. Up it's like just go do that because he.
- 29:53Speaker 2: Leaves confirmation of her, fear her worries maybe right, right
- 29:56Speaker 2: it's like maybe he's. Changed and then she's, like oh,
- 29:59Speaker 2: god she hasn't.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Changed, right same old.
- 30:02Speaker 2: Guy, Yeah and he says to, her you KNOW i.
- 30:05Speaker 2: DIDN'T i wasn't here for. Worry it's just like that's
- 30:10Speaker 2: the whole. Point but she's, like that's, Okay i'd be
- 30:13Speaker 2: there for someone else's. Baby but, okay you, know it's
- 30:16Speaker 2: like ouch, ouch and she didn't show, it so you.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Don't it's almost like you feel her pain more because she.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Didn't you. Know he just is not good at, life is?
- 30:29Speaker 1: He he's he's not very good at. Life so there they,
- 30:33Speaker 1: are both women are women are standing there heartbroken over
- 30:36Speaker 1: what just.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Happened OH i.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Know just then they start stepping toward the. Wedding it's
- 30:44Speaker 1: a it's a contrast that is uh quite beautiful for
- 30:50Speaker 1: a season. Finale oh, yeah it.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Was it was sort of like the in the sadness
- 30:56Speaker 2: moment mixed dramatic.
- 30:59Speaker 1: Moments. Funny where would you rank this in your season
- 31:03Speaker 1: finale FOR tv, shows other shows that you're fond? Of
- 31:07Speaker 1: what do you think of this as a.
- 31:09Speaker 2: SEASON i can't think of a single other season well
- 31:12Speaker 2: CAN i nothing's coming to mind of a season finale in.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Particular but those are had some good ones you See
- 31:20Speaker 1: did you see?
- 31:20Speaker 2: Those AREN'T i don't remember IF i saw a. SEASON
- 31:24Speaker 2: i saw some, episodes BUT i don't have a memory
- 31:26Speaker 2: of the SEASON i, REMEMBER i don't. Know it's like
- 31:29Speaker 2: a really bad, memory like very shoddy pieces of. Memory
- 31:33Speaker 2: so WHAT i can say is that it's up there
- 31:37Speaker 2: now and and there's really nothing wrong with it in my.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Opinion SO i don't think we'll say season finales or
- 31:51Speaker 2: any episode. EVER i don't think things that you that
- 31:54Speaker 2: feel like they were really just spot on are, common
- 31:58Speaker 2: and so it's hard to it's nice to really give
- 32:02Speaker 2: credit to that because it's sort of like hard to
- 32:05Speaker 2: imagine how difficult it is to really pull that off
- 32:08Speaker 2: because so much isn't good.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Well whether whether it's a finale or. Not it. Was
- 32:13Speaker 1: it was one of my. Favorites great episode executed on every.
- 32:18Speaker 1: Level just just a great one to rewatch and rewatch.
