" Hi, Mrs. Gilmore." Luke said waving slightly.
April looked a little confused and asked Luke in a whisper, "Who is Mrs. Gilmore?"
Luke leaned down and answered her, "Lorelai's Mother."
"O." April said to herself knowing exactly who she was. Lorelai and she talked a lot about her family while they were away at sea and Emily was a common and hilarious discussion between them.
"Hi Luke and April." Rory said kindly taking there papers and leading them to the car. As the group was walking Emily halted. Lorelai turned around and saw her mom.
" What are you doing mom?" Lorelai said rather annoyed.
"I'm waiting for my cab." She said standing perfectly still.
"What?!" Lorelai gasped. "You came all this way just for a picture of me in my black and white stripes."
"Lorelai are you hurt or do you need any legal help?" Emily said simply.
"Well, no." Lorelai said thinking. "I guess me and Luke took care of everything."
" Lorelai, I most likely would have never found out about this except for the fact that Rory needed your birth certificate. Would you have told me?" Emily said looking at her.
"Well, no. I would have buried this misunderstanding so deep into the ground; I would have discovered the second China."
"Lorelai I'm glad your fine. And next Friday when you come for dinner, I'm sure you, Luke, and this young girl April can tell me all about your very auspicious vacation. By the way I don't think you mentioned you and Luke were back together. I have to get going now, I have a DAR meeting in four hours." Emily began to walk to the cab.
"Mom by the way I'm back with Luke and that's his kid April." Lorelai said yelling at her back. "Now you can't say I didn't tell you."
"Lorelai thank you for an explanation to a very observable scene." Emily said getting into the cab.
"Hey, mom." Lorelai yelled back.
"Yes." Emily responded.
"What exactly are you going to do with that picture?" Lorelai said hesitantly.
"Lorelai, it's called Karma. And it's a bitch." After making the comment she took off in the taxi.
"Wow, Grandma learned how to develop a Fergie attitude over the summer." Rory said in amazement of her Grandmas speech.
"She's been watching MTV. Dammit." Lorelai said walking back to the group.
" Come on mom, lets go back to the apartment. You guys can shower and feel like humans again." Rory said walking to the car.
Rory takes the three jail birds back to Jess's apartment.
Lorelai walks out of one of the rooms drying her hair with a towel and walks towards Rory who is in the kitchen preparing some food.
" Ok, remember my obsession with coffee?" Lorelai asked Rory.
" You mean your life long addiction?" Rory said handing her a poptart.
"Yeah, I think I lost it. I haven't had coffee in two weeks. I think I broke the habit." Lorelai said smiling. Rory turned towards the coffee pot and turned around about to yell coffee anyone, when Lorelai comes right behind her with a cup.
"Your habit is as broken as Brittanys." Rory pours her a cup.
"I contemplated in joining her in her G.I. Jane statement when my hair began to smell like a swamp."
"How did you find the cups so fast? It took me a week to figure out their organization." Rory said looking around.
"Babe, its called a sixth sense." Lorelai said taking a sip of coffee. Rory and Lorelai moved into the living room where Luke and April were sitting on the couch relaxing.
"What happened?" Rory blurted out after everyone was settled.
Luke looked at Lorelai and April, " O Rory, its such a long and mind-numbing story, you wouldn't want to hear about it. Let's hear about something more stimulating, like New York. That's stimulating, right? With all the cars and busy bodies and restaurants. How's the traffic by the way? I swore I would never drive in it." Luke finally stopped rambling.
"Come on Luke. I need to know why I had to bail you three out of New York Immigration. I know there's a story here, call it my journalistic intuition." Rory gave him a smile.
"Lorelai, go on ahead."
"Why thank you Luke."
"Well, honey our boat was stolen along with everything we brought with us. We were stuck on the Gulf of Mexico when this happened. We ended up on a fishing boat. At that time we still looked like Americans, before the cave man effect took place. And the fishermen gladly accept us…"
"Rory, lets just say the real reason was your mom wasn't wearing much and the fishermen hadn't seen any women in a few months."
"I had that cute two piece we saw in the mall three months ago at Maurice's."
"O you got that. It was cute."
"Hey focus please." Luke said getting agitated.
"Ok, ok. So the fishermen ported at New York. And well unknown to us it was more than fishing boat. They were also smuggling some immigrants from Mexico into the city. The state thought we were and taken into captivity, where my hair began to smell like a swamp."
"And that was the basic story." April said trying to stop any further questions.
"One thing I don't get is how was your boat stolen?" Rory asked.
"O nothing important, anyone want to watch the science channel." April said taking the remote.
"O come on what happened?"
" Nothing." Luke said turning his head.
"Nope, nothing." Lorelai said looking down.
"Mom, what happened?"
" How's Logan, Rory?" Lorelai said smiling.
