Meanwhile in Stars Hollow:
Luke flipped on his TV and settled on his sofa for a nice break from his customers.
He had put Caesar in charge for an hour so that he could take a break.
He flipped a few channels before stopping on the local news channel.
Luke's jaw dropped when he saw Rory and Jess sitting in a red convertible.
He studied Rory's face and grimaced.
She looked like she had just swallowed an entire lemon.
Her face was knotted into an awful glare, and she was staring straight ahead, right into the lens of the camera.
Then Luke glanced at Jess.
Jess looked utterly miserable, and he glanced at Rory every minute or two.
The camera focused on the crowd that was watching the car contest.
Luke spotted Lorelai holding half a granola bar and talking with Lane.
Luke grabbed his cordless phone and dialed Lorelai's cell phone.
The camera stayed focused on Lorelai as she picked up her ringing cell phone.
"Hello?" Lorelai said into the phone.
"Lorelai, what are Jess and Rory doing sitting in a car together on television?" Luke questioned.
"How did you find out about that?" Lorelai asked.
"I'm looking at you!" Luke exclaimed.
Lorelai's head shot up in surprise and she stared at the camera that was pointed at her.
"Oh!" she exclaimed, "Hi, Luke! Hi, Sookie! Hi, everyone in Stars Hollow!" Lorelai waved at the camera and smiled.
Back to the convertible:
Jess glanced at Rory and sighed, "Are you going to stay silent the whole time?"
Rory glanced at him and said nothing.
Jess nodded, "I guess that's my answer."
Rory turned her head away again and crossed her arms.
"You're being very childish." Jess said.
"Me?! I'M being childish? You're the one that left without saying a word! Just acted as if nothing was different! That you weren't leaving that very same day, on that same bus!" Rory shouted.
The camera turned back to the car and zoomed in on the activity-taking place inside the convertible.
Jess rolled his eyes up to the roof of the black roll top of the convertible, "I don't want to talk about this."
"Of course you don't! You never want to talk about ANYTHING!" Rory screamed at him.
Jess leaned as far away from her as he could and shuddered.
"Do you have to scream?" he asked.
"Do I have to scream? Do I have to scream?" Rory's voice rose an octave higher with each word, "Yes, I have to scream, because nothing else seems to get your attention!"
Jess sighed.
Maybe she had a point.
But, he didn't want to admit it, anymore than she wanted to admit that she still loved him.
Rory took a breath and glanced at her watch.
One hour and counting…
