"This looks nice." Rory commented when they arrived at the fair.
"They look like a bunch of idiots. Don't let TJ get you started about his 'airpants'."
" 'Airpants'?" Rory questioned.
"He wore Robin Hood tights for the wedding and decided to call them airpants."
"Okay." Rory said with a smile. "Any idea where your mom will be?"
"I've never been to one of these things and I don't want to again."
"You have your cell phone switch it on. If you go that way, and I go this way. Call me if you find her."
"Okay." Jess agreed. "Just don't let anyone convince you that running away to join the Renaissance fair is a good idea."
"No I'll just run away to the circus." Rory smiled.
"I think Lorelai would approve of that."
"Knowing Mom she would."

It was Rory who found Liz first. Since she was talking to a customer, Rory called Jess to tell him and then looked at Liz's jewellery.
"Can I help you?" Liz asked Rory.
"This is beautiful."
"Thank you." Liz smiled.
"You're Liz Danes aren't you?"
"I was until I got married." Liz confirmed. "Do I know you? You look familiar."
"I'm Rory Gilmore, Lorelai's daughter."
"Of course, you used to be my son's girlfriend. It's nice to see you."
"You too." Rory said.
"So what are you doing here?"
"I brought Jess." Rory replied.
"Jess is here?" Liz questioned.
"He's headed over here now."
"If you like those have them." Liz told her about the earrings she was holding.
"I couldn't." Rory said.
"You brought him all this way it's the least I can do."
"At least let me give you some money…" Rory started.
"Please." Liz said.
"Thank you." Rory said conceding.
"Liz." Jess said when he found them.
"Hey Jessie." Liz smiled. "This is a surprise."
"I need to talk to you about something."
"Is there any food around here I'm starving?" Rory asked want to give them a few minutes. Jess looked at her as they had only finish eating less than an hour ago.
"Take the first available right and follow the smell."
"Thank you." Rory smiled. "I'll meet you back here."
"So what's going on Jess?" Liz asked when Rory was gone. "It must be big if you had Rory drive you all the way out to Maine."
"It was her idea that I talk to you in person."
"Jess what's going on? You're not sick are you?"
"No." He paused. "Rory's pregnant."
"What!"
"You're going to be a grandmother."
"I thought you broke up." Liz said trying to get her head around it.
"We did, but it happened and she's pregnant."
"How is this going to work with you in New York? Doesn't she go to some big fancy school?" Liz asked.
"I moved back to Stars Hollow yesterday. Luke is letting me stay with him again, but he'll probably spend most of his time at Lorelai's anyway. She goes to Yale which is in New Haven so it isn't too far away. She's going to finish out this semester and take next semester and go back next year."
"Sounds like she has it all planned out."
"Rory is very good at planning given how impetuous Lorelai is."
"How did Lorelai take it?"
"Rory and Luke talked her out of wanting to kill be before I found out. I just thought you should know."
