"Dean. I really need to talk to you. Would you please come over to my house tomorrow," Rory pleads. "Sure. If you really need to talk, I can come over now," Dean continues, "I can even bring over movies." Rory replies, "There's no need for the movies. I really need to talk to you and I can't have any distractions." Dean ends the conversation and hangs up. Confused and worried, his mind starts wondering on the way to the house. What could she possibly want to talk to me about? I know something is wrong, but what?

Meanwhile, Rory is obsessing on how she is supposed to tell him that she like Jess. She's confused and worried also. She begins to worry. What is he going to say? Am I going to chicken out again like I have almost every time I try to tell him anything? How is he going to take this? I haven't even decided if this means we're taking a break or completely breaking up. I'm not even sure I should tell him or break up with him and tell him why.

Ring, ring, ring, goes the door bell. Rory's heart is beating faster than ever before. As she turns the doorknob, she goes over what she needs to tell him. She opens the door and sees Dean holding a dozen roses. The pressure is too much. She falls to the ground with a gigantic smack. When she wakes up, her mother and boyfriend are crowding her. She is sitting on their couch. "Are you ok?" Dean says with a quiver in his voice. "I'm fine," Rory continues, "Mom, could you excuse us." "Of course," Lorelai replies, while giving her daughter a great sympathy look. She is very aware of what Rory was going to tell Dean. Rory begins her confession with, "Dean, there's something I really need to tell you, " she continues, "Please don't interrupt me or I may never finish saying what I need to say."

Ring, ring, ring, goes the door bell once again. Who could it be? "I'll get it," Lorelai yells across the house. "I need to speak with Rory," Jess says. He comes running in the house. He runs right passed Dean without seeing him. He blurts out, "I think I love you Rory." Dean is infuriated. He shoves Jess to the ground. Dean winds up to punch Jess and Rory yells, "Stop it!" but it's too late. Jess is on the ground unconscious from the blow.
