if, in 7.13 the only reason chris doesn't help emily is that he's moping over the fight he had with lorelai it tells alot about the kind of man he is. on one hand, we has chris, who is married to lorelai yet he won't lift a finger to help out his mother-in-law for the simple fact that he's depressed. he should put his own feelings aside and think of emily, who is under alot of stree with richard being sick. on the other hand, we have luke, who is not married to lorelai yet he chooses to help emily with whatever she needs, i think emily will finally see the difference between chris and luke. it would be cool to have a scene where emily apologizes to luke for being so nasty to him in the past and that she thinks he's a good man who is worthy of lorelai, maybe lorelai would overhear this and then "boom" she realizes she married the wrong guy.

I think that the big fight that's in ep. 13 will start before Richard gets sick. it makes sense for Dopey to be sulking and then grudgingly showing up at the hospital and sulking some more. I don't see it as being they get to the hospital, Luke's being great, then Chris starts to sulk... you'd expect Chris to be super-husband if the fight started after they got there in order to prove himself against Luke, imo.

I too believe that after 7.10 there will be small fights that will lead to the big 7.13 blow out. I believe that starting from 7.08 we will see lorelai's regret.
So from now on the episodes will be quite alright to watch (except if we see the vows in 7.10-please please no)

What did i lose again? When is she talking to Sookie and what are they saying?


Yes katie i will share the evil laugh

so who thinks that the first question from the town after finding out about Paris is gonna be "are you pregnant?"

Mocha, I think that Chris might attribute Lorelai's not wanting to do the vows thing to her seeing Luke earlier, so he goes to confront Luke. I don't think that CL will do the vows anyways. The ep. description makes it seem like Chris leaves and then Lorelai/Emily have their discussion. But if they do go through with it, Lorelai wouldn't mess up the names, she'd just be like numb and sad the whole time, imo...

As for Lorelai, she needs to see that what she had with Luke is worth fighting for and that even if she can't have it that she still doesn't want Chris or any other guy. This part for Lorelai is seeing how great Luke is again while no relationship is involved. And that's huge. He's being this great guy not to win her back or anything, but just because that's the great guy that he is.

i hope I'm making sense... I just put in a random tape to see what it was and it was the ultimatum scene in partings and now I'm all emotional and crying and my mind's all jumbly.

Last - in the whole of Paris there is not one place open at 4 am serving food, anyone been to Paris, is this true?

*evil laugh* I'm so excited to see CL fighting! I've always loved their fights maybe more than LL's. And i'm sure lots of little tiny fights and disagreements will be popping up all over the place, and maybe a more major fight in every ep building until the huge one in ep. 13.

I think her regret has clear from the end of ep. 7 and will just continue on... it's clear in the DC, and when she's talking to sookie in ep. 9, and probably when she sees Luke in ep. 10, and i'm sure there will be things in eps. 11 and 12 too.

But once CL are done, LL have a lot to work through together. To figure out how to trust eachother again, and how to forgive eachother for what they each did to screw up the relationship. And they also have to accept what them themselves did to ruin it all and they'll have to forgive themselves.
