Bedroom

The sun shines through the large veranda, lighting up the room. Rory is asleep underneath the white silk sheets, on the queen sized bed. She opens her eyes and sits up in the bed, looking around the room. Moving the covers to one side, she gets up out of the bed…her long night shirt, straightening out and falls to her knees. She walks over to the veranda and opens the door, stepping outside. Taking in a deep breath, she smells the sea air and smiles looking down to the crystal blue sea.

Rory: "Wow."

Logan walks up behind her, already dressed. He smiles.

Logan: "Morning Ace."

Rory turns around and faces him, a huge grin on her face.

Rory: "Morning."

Logan: "Sleep well?"

Rory: "Like sleeping beauty."

Logan: "I'll take that as a yes. Anyways, you ready for brunch?"

Rory looks down to what she's wearing. Logan looks her up and down and then shrugs.

Rory: "I'm not dressed."

Logan: "So?... Come on."

Logan takes her by the hand and leads her off the veranda and through the bedroom. They walks out of the bedroom and down the hallway into the dining room area. The gang already. Colin, dressed is reading the newspaper. Rosemary and Juliet also dressed, cutting the fresh fruit into bits. Colin looks up.

Colin: "Gilmore, you shock me. I thought you'd be the first one up, at the crack of dawn. Of course I'm building on the stereotype of you young and studious people."

Rory and Logan both sit down at the table.

Rory: "Sorry to disappoint Colin, but I can procrastinate with the best of them."

Rosemary: "Colin cut her a little slack, Rory and Logan didn't get on the boat until late last night. Besides, it's summer and the only reason I got out of bed so early was because Juliet was snoring."

Juliet: "I do not snore, I breath heavy."

Colin: "Same thing."

Juliet: "No it isn't! It's completely different."

Colin: "Yeah, if different means the same."

Rosemary: "Alright children, let's play nice."

Rory smiles picking up a few strawberries from the bowl and putting them onto her plate. Logan butters a bread roll and puts half on Rory's plate. Colin, Juliet and Rosemary watch. Logan looks up.

Logan: "What?"

Colin: "Nothing, just wondering if you'll butter my bread roll too."

Logan smirks, throwing a bread roll at Colin. Finn walks into the dining room area, wearing a girl's night shirt, which is slightly short…just covering the top of his thighs. Everyone looks at him, Rory swallows her strawberry.

Finn: "Morning."

Finn sits down at the table, with everyone still staring at him. Finn looks around.

Finn: "What?"

Colin: "Nothing…just wondering where you keep your balls."

Logan: "Colin, come on!"

Finn: "Thank you Logan…"

Logan: "…you know he probably keeps them in his make up bag."

Logan smirks.

Rory: "Don't listen to them Finn, I think you look good…"

Finn looks at Rory and nods.

Finn: "Thank you Rory and for sticking up for me, your prize will be a rendezvous in my bedroom later."

Finn winks at Rory.

Rory: "Oh, I'm sorry…I'm not a gay."

Colin, Logan, Rosemary and Juliet laugh. Finn looks around them.

Rosemary: "Finn, why exactly are you wearing a girl's night shirt?"

Finn: "It's breezy!"

Everyone laughs. Rory picks up her buttered bread roll and eats it, looking around the table with a smile on her face.

The Deck

A swimming pool is situated in the center of the deck, with a large Jacuzzi just to the right. Logan is standing at the bar, making cocktails while Colin and Rosemary are sunbathing on the sun beds. Juliet and Rory are sat at one of the tables, playing cards…while Finn swims in the pool, with a giant sombrero on. Music is playing loudly in the background.

Logan walks over to Rosemary and Colin setting down two cocktails by them and then over to Juliet and Rory, setting the tray down on the table.

Juliet: "How are you doing it?"

Rory: "Luck?"

Juliet: "You've won every game so far, it's not fair. Logan, you have a card shark of a girlfriend."

Juliet picks up her cocktail and walks over to the sun beds. Logan sits down in her place and looks at Rory, questioningly.

Logan: "What were you playing?"

Rory: "Snap!"

They both laugh. Logan hands Rory her cocktail and picks up his own.

Rory: "What is it?"

Logan: "It's a Down Under Snowball."

Rory raises an eyebrow.

Logan: "Just try it."

Rory takes a sip from the cocktail.

Logan: "Well?"

Rory: "Well…if you ever go bankrupt, then bartending is definitely the career for you." Rory takes another sip. "Mmm what exactly is a Down Under Snowball? It's weird though, I mean Down Under is a reference to Australia…and I have it on good authority it doesn't snow there!"

Logan: "It's just a name Ace, don't read too much into it."

Rory: "No history behind the cocktail…aw, it must feel so left out. I mean the other cocktails have histories, they have stories…take a Manhattan for instance, it's a classy cocktail that Carrie Bradshaw drinks on a night out in..." She pauses "…Manhattan! The name of the cocktail is very important, it practically tells the story: a Sea Breeze, a Bloody Mary, a Sex on the beach…"

Logan smirks.

Logan: "Sex on the beach, now there's an idea…but for now I guess the Down Under Snowball, with no history will just have to do Ace."

Rory takes another sip.

Rory: "I taste rum."

Logan: "Well at least we know your taste buds are working…it's rum, peach schnapps orange juice and grenadine."

Rory: "Tasty!"

Finn gets out of the swimming pool and walks over to the table, picking up his cocktail.

Rory: "Nice sombrero Finn!"

Finn: "Thanks, I picked it up last year when we went sailing…I'm just hoping that this year the boat doesn't sink."

Logan: "We're in a yacht not a sail boat this year, much sturdier!"

Rory: "That and the fact your not the captain this time!"

Logan: "Yeah, well that was one of the conditions to taking the yacht, I wasn't allowed in any way or form to Captain it."

Rory: "Aw, well see now that's what happens when you sink a million dollar sail boat!"

Rory smirks picking up her drink and walks over to the Jacuzzi, getting in. Juliet and Rosemary join her. Finn looks at the three of them and then over to Logan.

Finn: "Three beautiful ladies and they all want me."

Colin walks up behind Finn.

Colin: "In your dreams Finn!"

Finn turns and looks at Colin, raising an eyebrow and using his index finger to push his sombrero up slightly. Logan and Colin both laugh.

Gilmore Residence

Lorelai is sat in Richard's office opposite him.

Lorelai: "Thank you again for looking over the papers…dad, I really appreciate it."

Richard looks up from the paper to Lorelai.

Richard: "Well, I'm glad you came to me. I'll look over them this evening and then drop by the Inn tomorrow and tell you my findings."

Lorelai smiles and stands up.

Lorelai: "Great, uh well if your not too busy…you could stay for lunch?"

Richard looks at Lorelai, a little shocked…pleasantly shocked.

Richard: "That sounds delightful. I'll be there."

Lorelai: "Great. Well, I better go."

Richard: "Goodbye Lorelai."

Lorelai looks to the door and then back to her father. Richard looks at her curiously.

Richard: "Was there something else Lorelai?"

Lorelai: "Uhm, I was just wondering if you or mom had heard from Rory?"

Richard: "I believe she phoned your mother earlier today."

Lorelai: "Oh, great. I was just curious is all. Okay, well I gotta go."

Lorelai stands up from the seat and grabs her jacket. She puts her jacket on as she walks out of her dad's office. As she goes to open the front door, Emily walks in.

Emily: "Lorelai."

Lorelai: "Hey mom."

Emily: "What are you doing here?"

Lorelai: "I was just casing the joint…"

Emily raises an eyebrow.

Lorelai: "Kidding, I was just here to see dad about some business."

Emily: "Really?"

Lorelai: "Yes…really!"

Emily: "Hmm, well if you say so."

Emily walks past Lorelai, Lorelai turns around and looks at her mother.

Lorelai: "What does that mean?"

Emily turns back around taking off her coat and giving it to one of the maids.

Emily: "It's 8.30 at night, Lorelai."

Lorelai: "I can tell the time, have been able to since I was 4."

Emily: "Nobody does business at 8.30 at night Lorelai, not even your father. Why are you really here Lorelai?"

Lorelai looks at her blankly.

Emily: "Don't play dumb Lorelai, you and Rory had an argument last night."

Lorelai: "What? Did she tell you that?"

Emily: "She didn't need to…She came by late yesterday and asked when she got back if she could stay in the pool house."

Lorelai: "The pool house…your pool house?"

Emily: "Yes…"

Lorelai: "And what did you say?"

Emily: "I said yes, of course."

Lorelai, sarcastically: "That's just great."

Emily: "I was hardly going to let my grand-daughter sleep on the streets."

Lorelai: "She's got a billionaire boyfriend, she's got a best friend who lives in an apartment, she's got a home, with her room in it…that's hardly the streets."

Emily: "I just figured a time out would be best, to let you both cool off"

Lorelai: "Please, don't pretend you did this for my sake! You thought, finally I'll have the daughter I've always wanted, the daughter I can put under my lock and key."

Emily: "Don't stupid Lorelai."

Lorelai: "Don't worry mom, I won't get in the way…I'll ship her things to you tomorrow."

Lorelai turns around and storms off. Emily watches her go.

Emily: "Lorelai!"

Lorelai slams the door shut as she leaves.

Luke's Diner

Luke is wiping down the counter, the place is practically empty apart from Kirk who is sitting at the counter eating.

Kirk: "This is good pie…is it homemade? Store bought…I think it's probably store bought, it has the signature of store bought written all over it."

Luke: "It's home made, Kirk."

Kirk: "Are you sure? I've seen a cake like this in a store before!"

Luke: "Which store?"

Kirk: "Well, I'm not quite sure but it was a store…or was it?"

Luke looks at Kirk unamused. Lorelai walks into the diner and over to the counter.

Lorelai: "Coffee, black and make it a double."

Kirk looks at Lorelai

Kirk: "You want some store bought pie?"

Luke looks at Kirk again, Kirk's eyes widen as he grabs the plate and runs out of the diner.

Lorelai: "What was that all about?"

Luke pours Lorelai a cup of coffee.

Luke: "It's Kirk…there is no explanation."

Lorelai: "True…"

Luke: "Rough day?"

Lorelai: "Something like that…I went to see my father earlier, with some business work…although I didn't really go there for business, I just wanted to know if they had heard from Rory."

Luke: "and had they?"

Lorelai: "Yes…and guess what? Apparently she'll be their new tenant!"

Luke: "What?"

Lorelai: "She's moving into their pool house!"

Luke: "The pool house? Your parents pool house?"

Lorelai nods.

Luke: "Well…no, we won't let her. I tell you what we'll do, we'll fly to California…rent a boat, track down Richie Rich and his little posse…and when we find them, we'll kidnap Rory bring her back to the house, until you two sort this thing out."

Lorelai smiles.

Lorelai: "I don't think it's as simple as that!" Lorelai looks at Luke and smiles. "Luke – will you marry me?"

Luke stops wiping the counter and looks around and then back to Lorelai.

Luke: "What?"

Lorelai smirks as she stands up and sits on the counter, swings her body around so she's on the other side. She jumps down on the floor and bends down on one knee.

Luke: "I haven't swept the floor yet, you'll ruin your trousers."

Lorelai: "Luke, you're my best friend…my love and my soul mate. I love you, will you marry me?"

Luke: "Get up off the floor."

Lorelai: "Not till you give me an answer."

Luke bends down and picks Lorelai up and sits her back onto the counter. Lorelai frowns.

Luke: "Have you always gotta be the one taking control…I'm the guy, I'm the one who is suppose to propose."

Lorelai looks down disappointed. Luke bends down slightly, lower than Lorelai but so his knee isn't touching the floor. Lorelai looks up smirking.

Luke: "Lorelai, will you marry me?"

Lorelai: "Yes!"

Lorelai wraps her arms around Luke and they kiss.

The Yacht

Rory is sitting in her bedroom, under the covers watching the TV. Logan walks into the bedroom and over to the bed, sitting down on it.

Logan: "You alright Ace?"

Rory: "I think I caught a little too much sun…that and the million cocktails I drank. How do you guys do this year after year?"

Logan: "Practice?"

Rory smiles.

Logan: "You wanna come down? We're gonna watch a movie."

Rory: "I don't know…I think I might just sleep. Is that alright?"

Logan smiles.

Logan: "It's cool Ace, night."

Logan leans down and kisses Rory's forehead before walking back out. Rory sits up in the bed and takes a deep breath. Getting out of the bed, she walks over to her suitcase and picks up her cell phone. She dials home, but no one answers. She sighs putting the cell phone back in the suitcase. She sighs, grabbing her dressing gown putting it on and walks out of the bedroom and over to the sitting area. Rosemary and Juliet are giving Finn a facial, while Colin and Logan are going through the dvd collection.

Rosemary: "Hey Rory!"

Rory: "Hey!"

Logan turns around and looks at Rory. Rory walks up to him, putting her arm around his waist. She kisses his cheek.

Rory: "So what are we watching?"

Colin: "It's a toss up between Happy Gilmore."

Finn laughs. Rosemary hits him

Finn: "Ouch! What was that for?"

Rosemary: "You need to keep your facial expression the same if the mask is going to work effectively. Didn't your father teach you anything?"

Finn: "Sorry, just found that funny. Happy Gilmore…Rory Gilmore, oh am I the only one?"

Rosemary: "Yes."

Logan: "or…Ace Ventura; Pet Detective."

Rory: "Wow, variety of choices."

Logan: "It's a tradition, when we do a movie night…we take a DVD from one person's collection…this is Colin's night."

Rory: "Colin's DVD collection?"

Rory takes a step closer looking at the DVD's.

Rory: "The Hot Chick, 10 Things I Hate About You…A Walk To Remember?"

Rory laughs.

Colin: "Don't mock my DVD collection."

Rory: "I'm sorry, I just – never figured you for a Mandy Moore fan."

Colin: "She has a beautiful voice."

Rory: "Sure."

Colin: "It's a heart warming story."

Rory: "Right."

Colin: "It's-"

Logan: "Cool it, Colin."

Colin turns and walks away. Rory looks up and Logan and they both burst out laughing.

Later

Rory is sat on the couch, leaning against Logan. Logan has his arm around her. Rosemary and Juliet are sat on the other couch, while Finn and Colin lie on the floor watching Get Over It. Rory looks around and smiles, looking at Logan.
