Jess was sat on the couch reading when Rory and Libby returned home.
"Daddy." Libby ran in, she had a sun hat with what looked like the front half a stuffed toy dog sticking out of the front.
"Hey Lib." Jess picked her up and sat her on his knee. "Nice hat."
"She picked it out herself." Rory set her bags down on chair. "We don't want her getting sun stroke in Florida."
"I guess you bought more than swimsuits."
"There's even a nice pink bag that I'll show you the contents of when she's asleep."
"You took her to Victoria's Secret?"
"She was asleep." Rory shrugged. "How did it go with the lawyer?"
"Hey Lib why don't you watch Barney?" Jess put on the video for her. "Mommy and Daddy will be around."
"Okay." Jess set her on the couch to watch TV.
They went into the kitchen.
"So?"
"Other than being really long winded. He says the contract is solid and it's a good deal."
"That's good." Rory leant against the counter while Jess made coffee.
"Old money are slightly boring." Jess said.
"I know. Did you make a decision?"
"Do we really want our lives invaded?"
"Jess we live in a small, crazy and very protective town. We'll be fine."
"If not I'll get my grandmother to lecture them on appropriate behaviour or Mom to just start babbling. Or we could introduce intruders to TJ."
"You know you're crazy."
"Jess, this is really good for you. It's great for your career. Besides I'll never forgive you if you don't do the Oprah thing."
"What is the obsession with Oprah?" Jess asked.
"She's worth over a billion dollars."
"I'll agree to Oprah, just give me a few more days on the movie."
Rory wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him. Jess wrapped his arms around her waist.
"I love you." Rory whispered.
"I love you too."
"Juice." Libby appeared in the doorway.
"Go and sit down and Mommy will bring you your sippy cup." Rory told her.
"Okay." Libby agreed.
"I'll finish making the coffee." Jess told her.
Rory gave him a quick kiss and filled Libby's sippy cup up and took it to her.
"How is Barney doing kid?" Rory said next to Libby.
"Yaba daba doo." Libby yelled out.
"That's a different Barney Lib. That's the Flintstones with Fred and Barney and Wilma and Betty and Dino."
"Bam Bam." Libby supplied.
"And Pebbles." Rory kissed the top of her head.
"Pebbles?" Jess questioned as he brought Rory some coffee.
"Yaba daba doo." Libby repeated her earlier cry.
"Maybe letting her watch the Cartoon Network is a bad idea." Jess suggested.
"Who doesn't love the Flintstones?" Rory asked as she started singing the theme song.
"Are you done?" Jess asked when she finished.
"I don't know are we done Lib?"
"Yaba daba doo." Libby yelled.
"Obviously not." Jess sighed. "How about we stick to Sesame Street in future and Bert and Ernie and their rubber duckie. Please don't sing it."
"Daddy's no fun Lib." Rory teased.
"Yaba daba doo."
The Barney on the TV started singing his song.
"You're all crazy." Jess sighed. "I think it must a genetic female thing."
Rory tossed a cushion at him.
Jess glanced at the clock.
"Spaghetti good for dinner?" Jess asked.
"You want spaghetti Lib?" Rory asked.
"Yay!" Libby clapped her hands together.
