Sasha- well would you like to come in or do you have other plans
Luke- actually we were going to pick up Lily and go down to the beach with Jess and Rory, and then maybe go out for a bite to eat
Sasha- well I have a better idea, why don't you come over here for dinner we could order pizza and watch movies the Gilmore way
Lorelai- you heard about that
Sasha- actually I lived it, and I thought we were the only ones to do it like that
Lorelai- really, you know what Sasha (goes up to her and puts her arms intertwined with Sasha's) I think this is a start for a beautiful friendship between us

Lorelai- ok great, Sasha will talk to you then come on Lucas
Luke- bye, Sas see you then
Sasha- bye guys
Luke and Lorelai walk to Ana's House
Luke- you are aware that I don't get along with Jimmy right
Lorelai- yes, but if Jess wants Jimmy to be in his life, then you and Jimmy are going to at least have to get along, you don't have to like each other but you do have to get along
Luke- but I can't my hate for him is so strong
Lorelai- Luke please… do it for Jess do it for me if not for him then me
Luke- fine, I'll do it for both of you
Lorelai- thanks you wont regret it, I promise (she kisses him they get to Ana's house)

Ana's Sister opens the door
Hi, you must be Luke and Lorelai
Lorelai- yup
My name is Avery; I am Ana's sister
Luke- well hi Avery, we are here to pick up Lily to go to the beach Ana can join us if she wants too
Avery- (calls for Ana and Lily) will you Guys come here
Ana and Lily walk in to view
Lily- Luke
Luke- Lily how are you sweetheart
Lily- I am good, how are you
Luke- I am good; this is Lorelai Rory's mother
Lily- hi nice to meet you, this is Ana (points to her friend)
She is the same height as Lily and has blonde hair, and bright blue eyes, she has a tan, her and her sister look a lot alike except Avery has a lighter blonde hair color.
Ana- hi
Lorelai- how are you
Ana- good, you?
Lorelai- good, would you and Lily like to come to the beach with my daughter Rory and her boyfriend Jess, as well as Luke and I?
Lily and Ana- ok
Ana- Can I go Avery?
Avery- did you finish cleaning your room
Ana nodded her head
Avery- ok well you know your sleeping over at Lily's tonight right
Ana- I am
Avery- yeah remember I have to work and you're not allowed to be home alone
Ana- that's this week, I forgot sorry
Avery- why are you apologizing, you're allowed to forget
Ana- ok well I hope you have fun at work tonight
Avery- thanks and I know your going to have a blast, so go get your bathing suites on and get your bag Ana
Ana and Lily- ok (they are no longer in the living room)
Lorelai- where do you work, that you are going to have fun, if you don't mind my asking
Avery- I work in the day care center every other week, so Ana sleeps over at Lily's for three out of seven days of the week, and the other two I get off early so I pick her up.
Lorelai- sorry for being so rude but where are your parents
Avery- no problem, they died when I turned 18, and they left us some money so I could take care of Ana and not have to put her in the system, right now I am 20 and I've been taking care of her since she was 11, I finished high school but I haven't gone to college yet, and I am probably not going to for a while.
Lorelai- I am sorry, but it's good that Ana can have a good chance at life instead of being put in the system, and she has you, and it looks like your doing a very good job.
Avery- thanks (Ana and Lily walk in to the entrance)
Ana- were ready to go
Avery- ok Ana, you be good for Sasha and I will call you I promise (Avery hugs her sister) and be careful
Ana- ok bye Avery I'll talk to you later
Avery- bye Lily, (she hugs Lily) have fun you two
Lily- bye, we will
Lorelai- ok guys let's get going, Bye Avery it was nice meeting you
Luke- it was, bye
Avery- bye guys
Lily, Luke, Lorelai and Ana are walking on to the sidewalk
Lorelai- Ana, your bag that you have for Lily's, give it to me I'll go give it to Sasha
Luke- do you want us to come
Lorelai- no you have to go meet Rory and Jess there waiting
Luke- ok will meet you at the book store (he kisses her) I love you
Lorelai- I love you too, bye guys
Ana and Lily- bye Lorelai, see you soon
Luke, Ana, and Lily start walking towards the bookstore and Lorelai goes to Sasha's house, Lorelai gets to Sasha's to see her walking out of the door
Lorelai- Sasha wait, here is Ana's bag
Sasha- I was just going to go get it, (she walks up to Lorelai and takes it)
Lorelai- well I am here to give it to you
Sasha- well thanks, (she puts the bag in to the house then locks it again) so I am on my way towards the beach, would like to walk with me
Lorelai- I would be delighted to, so I need to talk to you
Sasha- ok shoot
Lorelai- you know how we have dinner tonight, well I noticed Luke and Jimmy don't get along
Sasha- when did you notice that
Lorelai- when we got hot dogs at inferno and Jimmy and Luke weren't really communicating like they like each other, actually Luke was being rude and Jimmy took it
Sasha- I know, it's because Jimmy left Liz and everything went downhill from there, but things have changed since then
Lorelai- Jimmy said that, but Luke didn't believe him
Sasha- I have no idea, how to convince Luke that Jimmy changed, that he isn't the Jimmy he use to know
Lorelai- well I think that we should at least get them to interact with each other they don't have to like each other, but cant they at least be civil, we should use tonight as a way to seal the crack between them.
Sasha- I agree lets brainstorm ways to do that, and do it tonight because I think Jess would still like to be in contact with Jimmy, and Luke is going to have to except that.
Lorelai- I told him that, tonight let's look for signs of a way to bring them together and were in town till the 5th of July or even longer where not sure yet.
Sasha- well back in high school they were best friends and they use to play sports together, tonight we should play basket-ball and then everyone leave when they are so caught up in the competition and let them tell each other why they are mad at each other.
Lorelai- that might-work for a few hours, the rest we can worry about it when it comes up, they are going to be friends if it's the last thing we do.
Sasha- yes we are, so I enjoyed are talk and I have to go this way now
Lorelai- ok bye Sasha
Sasha- bye Lorelai
Lorelai walk over to the bookstore and meets up with everybody they then go to the beach and they all go swimming and they are there till 6, they get there stuff together and they then go back to the hotel and they each take turns in the showers, and they change in to there clean, and dry clothes and they hang up the wet ones on the balcony, to dry then at 6:55 they walk over to Sasha' s house and get prepared to eat dinner, with the family.
