Chapter 18 - The Re-enactment
Richard comes looking for a bowl for the dog to eat out of. Emily gives him a chipped and asks him to throw it out afterwards. Emily inquires on the food for the dog. He says he will pick out met pieces from the stew his valet has made. Emily is outraged at Richard being served this level of food and tells his valet is being paid to make something more substantial and makes him promise to. They joke about the stew. Emily after him as he leaves.
/ Chloe, Rory and Lorelai. They are chatting on the phone with each other about the re-enactment. Scene cuts from Rory's dorm to Lorelai's living room and Chloe's dorm. Lorelai is sewing a costume and talking on the phone.
Lorelai: From what I gather, this woman made eyes at a British general and the British general was feeling a little randy.
Rory: Such a salacious history our town has.
Chloe: it's one way to keep a man busy.
Lorelai: And she led into her house and kept the fellow occupied.
Rory: Occupied his brains out, huh?
Chloe: Eww, mental image. All night.
Lorelai: Hey, don't warp the loo...Girls.
Rory: Sorry.
Chloe: Fine.
Lorelai: But why do you think they didn't just kill him?
Rory: I don't know, maybe they knew that we would ultimately make peace with England and they wouldn't want to kill a potential great-great-grandfather of a Winston Churchill or a Benny Hill.
Chloe: They didn't know the result of it would be.
Lorelai: Chloe-Doll your right. It was very forward thinking of them. Lorelai examines the dress. Boy, do I know how to dress a slut or what? I am very proud.
Chloe: You should be.
Rory: So you haven't said anything about our first snow.
Lorelai: That's right, I haven't.
Chloe: Why not? You love snow.
Rory: Why? You don't sound so excited.
Chloe: What happened?
Lorelai: Well, girls, snow and I had a bit of a bumpy ride today.
Rory: Bummer.
Chloe: How so?
Lorelai: I blame myself. I may have been too needy with snow. Too clingy. So it had no choice but to push me away, create a boundary.
Rory: Snow and mean have a lot in common.
Chloe: Amen, sister.
Lorelai: What about you two? Anything exciting happen to you two today? You two get in a snowball fight with a Nobel Prize winner or something?
Rory: No, no. Nothing out of the ordinary. But I'm sorry that snow was so mean to you today.
Lorelai: And you Chloe?
Chloe: Just classes and Logan and wedding planning stuff. A normal day for me now.
Rory: Eww…too much information.
Lorelai: Oh, it's okay. It wasn't snow's fault. We had one bad day. Every relationship has its bad days. It doesn't mean you drop and run, you keep going, right? Peaks and valleys keep a relationship fresh.
Rory: I agree.
Chloe: True.
Lorelai: Tomorrow is another day.
She changes the buckets where water is dripping from the ceiling. She looks up at the leak and sighs.
Chris and Lorelai's house – outside – morning
Lorelai comes out of the house and locks the door. She begins to walk toward the Jeep, then stops. The Jeep is buried in a pile of snow.
Lorelai: No.
As she watches, a branch from the tree above the Jeep falls onto it, bringing more snow down.
Chris and Lorelai are digging out her jeep as Lorelai physical assaults the snow. Chris comments about where she parked her car and Lorelai retorts she's always parked there. Chris says she looks deranged. They argue over her relationship with snow. She comments about her foot modelling career being over. Lorelai breaks up with the snow and Chris says she's not. She rants about the snow. She threatens to revoke the cancellation policy so not that people without a good reason within three years of the date. She isn't giving a refund. She complains about her feet being wet. Lorelai insults snow and asks Chris to be with on this. Lorelai is basically angry with snow.
/ The Hayden Family. Chris, Lorelai, Elizabeth, Michael, Chloe, Nana Cece, Grandma Francine, Rory, Grandpa Straub and Grandfather Edward are eating lunch and are chatting.
Chloe: So why lunch today? Michael laughs.
Michael: You are so like your Nana it isn't even funny.
Cece: Isn't that why you named her after me?
Lorelai: I kind of agree with Chloe. Explain yourself?
They reveal that the news about Straub's health has been leaked and they should prepare themselves for reporters phoning or contacting them for information. They all agree to help out as best as they can and chat and eat and talk about their lives.
/ Friday night dinner. Rory and Lorelai and Chloe knock on the door. The valet answers.
Chloe: Hi.
Lorelai: Hello, Robert.
Robert: Good evening, ladies.
Richard: Hello, girls.
Rory: Hey, grandpa.
Chloe: Hi Uncle, Richard.
Lorelai: Hi, Dad.
Richard: Did you THREE come together tonight?
Lorelai: Oh, no, just a lucky coincidence.
Chloe: Hi Aunt Emily, are you joining us tonight?
Emily is sitting by the fireplace.
Lorelai: Well, hello, Mom.
Emily: Hello, girls and not officially.
Rory: Hi, Grandma.
Emily: Just go about your drinks. I'm just here to sit with the dog.
Lorelai: Dog?
Chloe: You have a dog?
Rory: Oh, he's cute!
Lorelai: When did you get a dog?
Chloe: Probably recently.
Emily: She's not our dog.
Lorelai: No less confused.
Richard: And, it's a he.
Emily: The dog?
Richard: The dog is a boy.
Emily: I thought you said it was a girl.
Richard: I got another peek. It was rolling around on its back and it was painfully obvious.
Emily: They're so hairy down there.
Richard: This one especially.
Lorelai: It's going from weird to weirder.
Chloe: Tell me about it. I'm just confused
Richard: The usual beverage for everybody?
Rory: So he's not your dog?
Emily: It just showed up in our yard yesterday morning. We have no idea how it got here or where it came from. It has no tags.
Chloe: Poor thing.
Richard: He's a very big mystery, this dog.
Emily: Oh, now I'm monopolizing things and I'm not even here. Please, go about your drinks.
Richard: No, no, I'm having Robert make one up for you as well.
Emily: Are you sure? Because I'm not officially here.
Richard: Absolutely.
Robert brings in the drinks. Emily: Thank you, Richard.
Rory: So how long are you going to keep him?
Richard: As long as it takes to find the owners.
Chloe: Who's been looking after him?
Emily: Richard had to miss a half day of work yesterday.
Richard: But Emily has agreed to write a note excusing my absence, so it should be okay.
Chloe: That's nice of her.
Emily is smiling: Okay, now pretend I'm not here. You girls and I can chat later.
Lorelai: Okay. Well, um, Rory, Chloe oh my God, did I tell you about the horrendous thing that Mom did? She can be such a witch with a 'B'.
Emily: Lorelai.
Lorelai: Oh, geez, Mom, I forgot you were there. My pretending is that good.
Chloe: We can't pretend you're not here.
Rory: I agree, We can't really pretend you're not here, Grandma.
Richard: That's true, Emily. You have a presence that cannot be ignored.
Emily: Well, fine. I can leave.
Richard: No, no! The dog likes you there. Join in the conversation if you wish.
Emily: Well, I am curious to know when you girls got the bad news today.
Lorelai: You know!
Chloe: We all know. Chloe whispers. Rory nods.
Emily: You know already?
Lorelai: Well, Christopher is my husband and we share many things. We don't keep secrets from each other.
Rory: We found at weeks ago and were told to keep it a secret.
Chloe: Grandpa wanted it that way.
Emily: Well how is he?
Chloe: Well, he is doing well considering. He is still having chemo. We are staying positive.
Emily: Lorelai how's Christopher?
Lorelai: He is doing well, as can be expected. Michael is busy keeping the family strong.
Chloe: The family is sticking together.
Richard: Send our best wishes to them.
Emily: I sent flowers with both of our names.
Richard: Thank you, Emily.
Lorelai: Christopher is doing well as can be expected.
Chloe: Daddy is concerned and stressed.
Emily: Send our love.
Lorelai: Will do.
Emily: How's Francine?
Chloe: Grandma is doing her best right now.
Emily: Tell her if she needs anyone to talk to, have her call me.
Richard: Let Straub know he has our support.
Chloe: Thank you, Aunt Emily, Uncle Richard for the support.
Emily: Rory, you haven't said a word. Are you okay?
Lorelai: You okay, hun. Rory nods.
Richard: How is the wedding planning going?
Lorelai: Yes, How did this weekend go? The final wedding fittings.
Chloe: They went fine. We got ours dresses and the guys got their tuxes and paid the deposit for both of the venues and I got Jimmy Choos!
Rory: I got my dress and also Jimmy Choos. I spent a lot of time with Chloe's friends.
Emily: That's good at least you're taking the planning seriously.
Lorelai: I want to see the shoes. So, jealous by the way you shopped in Jimmy Choos.
Chloe: We also got our wedding rings.
Emily: When is the big day? Or the bridal shower? Who's the maid of honour?
Richard: Emily, calm down. Ask one question at a time.
Emily: Alright, Richard.
Chloe: It's March 4th, Rory, Honor and Steph, I think are planning it, not sure yet. Rory's the maid of honour.
Lorelai: I want to help with the Bridal shower.
Rory: Sure, we'll take any help from anyone.
Lorelai: Thanks, Hun.
Emily: Bridal shower, when is it?
Chloe: They are keeping it a surprise from me, so I don't know.
Richard: Okay…
Emily: The dog stands up. Emily is surprised: Oh! He moved! Is it supposed to do that?
Chloe: Yes.
Richard: Oh, Emily. Let me show you how he likes his blanket arranged. He's a bit picky.
Emily: I appreciate your help.
Chloe: They look kind cosy.
Lorelai: I know it's freaking me out. Really freaking out.
Rory: This dog has brought them closer together I think.
Chloe: You're right. I think maybe we should keep an eye on them though.
Lorelai: Do you think we should ask them what's going on between them now, or later?
Rory: Don't talk to them at all; you'll only make it worse.
Chloe: I agree, they will get defensive and we won't find out anything from them.
Lorelai: Fine, that's probably the best option.
Rory: What do we do now?
Lorelai: Watch them.
Chloe: Watch them do what?
Rory: Talk obviously.
Lorelai: Drink and eat obviously.
Chloe: Fine, but I'm missing an evening with my fiancé to be here.
Rory: Sorry, but you promised to be here. Chloe nods.
Richard is rolling up a corner of the blanket near the dog's head.
Richard: - this, the bump acts as a kind of pillow.
Emily: Very clever!
Richard: There's a dog hair in your drink. I'll have Robert make you another one.
Emily: Oh, that's okay.
Richard taking the glass: No, no, I insist. He gets up Robert, we need dog hair removal.

Lorelai: Must you do that?
Rory: Do what?
Chris: What's she doing?
Lorelai: Sip
Rory: Sip? You object to sipping?
Lorelai: If it's done at a decibel level rivalling Louis Armstrong blowing a high 'C' then yes! I object!
Chris: Would you mute yourself?
Rory: I'll put my mute on.
Lorelai: Thanks, Satchmo.
Chloe: Nice!
Rory: Mm! We're just minutes away from the big re-enactment!
Lorelai: Oh, my God, do not talk in that high-pitched girly voice of yours!
Chris: It is pretty bad.
Rory: Oh, now, come on.
Lorelai: You come on.
Chris: Can you change your voice?
Rory: I'm a girl, my voice is my voice.
Lorelai: Well, I should have had a boy in anticipation of times like this.
Chris: It's not how it works.
Rory: So it's your fault.
Lorelai: Or Christopher's. Whoever supplies that girl or boy part of the chromosomes.
Chris: Hey!
Rory: It's the guy.
Lorelai: I'm sorry I'm not vivacious.
Chris: I'm not feeling good.
Rory: It was for a good cause.
Lorelai: I never remember to drink water. That is the key.
Rory: Lots of water!
Chris: Milk?
Lorelai: Pancakes!
Rory: What about 'em?
Lorelai: Sure-fire thing to make my head feel less awkward for being attached to my neck.
Chris: I like coffee.
Rory: Then you are getting pancakes.

Chloe: I still can't believe I got suckered into driving.
Logan: You're the only one who actually knows where were going.
Chloe: GPS works for anyone.
Logan: But we need to get their before everyone else so that we have time to set up.
Steph: Logan did promise to drive us back.
Finn: Can everyone keep it down. I'm trying to sleep.
Rory: Finn, its 9am in the morning when most people are up for the day.
Chloe: I told you not to drink the night before an event every single time, but do you listen? NO! So stop our complaining,
Colin: Seriously, dude, didn't you learn your lesson from last time.
Steph: Never complain about something that you caused to happen to yourself, or you will get an earful.
Finn: I forgot, Little One, forgive me please Finn pouts. Chloe smiles and nods her head.
Tristan: You know she can hear you, right?
Rory: Maybe you shouldn't say another now Steph. Seeing Chloe look quizzically at Steph and Colin.
Logan: What's going on back there?
Chloe: They are up to something, I can tell by the looks of their faces.
Rory: This time better, I'm not wearing a blindfold.
Tristan: Speak for yourself, I am wearing one.
Steph: It's only fair, we made Rory do it.
Colin: That was only to prevent her from exposing us, we didn't know what she would do with the information she found out or already had.
Chloe: Steph, the costumes are done, right?
Steph: Of course they are, I have everything under control and I have Colin helping if I don't, so don't you worry.
Logan: You know if you say that, she'll still worry her head off.
Chloe scowls. Chloe: I'm a worrier, so sue me.
Finn: Make much longer?
Chloe: Actually we're almost there.
Steph sees something. Steph: I think we're here.
Tristan: Why?

Logan: I'll go help. Rory and Tristan share a look then quickly look after. Chloe and Steph see this. Logan and Colin walk out.
Chloe: Why don't Finn and Tristan, many hands and light work and all that.
Tristan: Why don't you help?
Chloe in a Russian accent: That is because us females need to talk without males and this way I have done it without telling you directly to leave.
Finn in a Russian accent: Of, your majesty, of course you need to talk with Grandmamma and my older sister. Let's bid these ladies adieu. They leave.
Steph in a Russian accent: Very good, dear one. But we need to make haste with the conversation.
Chloe in a Russian accent: Very well, Mama. Dear Ana, What is transpiring between you and George?
Rory looks confused and realizes they are acting and who she is to both of the women. Rory decides to play along. Rory in a Russian accent: Nothing, is going on between George and I. We are simply friends.
Steph in a Russian accent: Are you sure? Rory nods. Then you must let the boy down gently because from the way he way he was gazing at you, he feels and shares affection akin to what's between a husband and a wife. Rory looks shocked.
Chloe in a Russian accent: You must speak with him. Let your position be clear to him.
Rory in a Russian accent: Yes Mama, Grandmamma. I will speak with George soon. Thank you for your counsel. The hug and join the rest of the brigade.

Tristan: What do you mean by that?
Rory: I mean whoever would have thought that we could get along, never mind dancing together. Rory laughs. Tristan laughs.
Tristan: We we've come a long way since high school.
Rory: I know. They lock eyes. I'm having a great time tonight. Thanks for asking to escort me to the ball.
Tristan smirks. Tristan: My Pleasure, milady. Three hours ago by. They dance, sit and talk and eat.
Rory: I wonder….
Tristan: What?
Rory: It's nothing. It's pretty stupid.
Tristan: Tell me. I promise I won't laugh.
Rory: Yes you will. Rory huffs.
Tristan: How about if I promise not to
Rory: How about a pinkie promise? She puts her finger out. He does the same and they pinkie swear on it.
Tristan: I've done it.
Rory: I'm wondering how long does this ball last? my feet are starting to get tired. Do you think we can sneak out early?
Tristan: Why of course we can Milady, he makes sure none of their friends can see and pulls her out of the ballroom.
Rory: Whoa, thanks Tris, for doing that. As she goes to walk to her room. Tristan calls out.
Tristan: Where are you going?
Rory: I thought it was obvious, to my room.
Tristan: Well, in that case I shall escort you to your room.
Rory: You don't have to
Tristan: But I want to. I care about you Rory. They walk together side by side to Rory's room.
Colin eats and then dances with Steph. Colin: So does it meet your expectations?

Chloe and Logan are dancing. Logan: I'll give Steph credit for it. She really does know how to plan an event.
Chloe: I know.
Logan: This weekend has been brilliant so far and so relaxing.
Chloe teases. Chloe: That's because we don't have any of the responsibility and all of the fun to be had.
Logan: And?
Chloe: This is good practise for our first dance. Logan kisses the top of her head and they keep dancing.
/ Tristan and Rory. Rory's room.
Rory: Thank you for bringing me back to my room. You're a real gentleman.
Tristan: Why thank you, milady.
Rory: Can we stop the role playing now. I want to talk to Tristan, not George.
Tristan: Okay. So what do you want to talk about?
Rory: I want to… let's go into my room I don't feel comfortable doing this in the doorway.
Tristan chuckles and follows her into the room and sits on the couch with her. Tristan: So…
Rory: So… What I want to talk about is…us?
Tristan looks confused. Tristan: What about us?
Rory looks exasperated. Rory: What we are to each other? What's going on with us.
Tristan: We're friends, maybe even best friends. I have no idea what you mean.
Rory: Tristan we almost kissed.
Tristan: When?
Rory: When we got back from New York and were hanging out Monday night, the talking, the tickle fight.
Tristan doesn't say anything. Rory: God Tristan, if Paris hadn't come home when she did we would have kissed. Seriously, I have been in denial for weeks now, now I know how I feel and this is what I get, I have feelings for a coward…
Tristan cuts Rory by kissing her. Rory kisses back and soon realizes what happening and pulls away. Rory: What does this mean?
Tristan smiles a genuine smile. Tristan: It means Mary, that I like you too.
Rory sighs in relief. Rory: Is this why you've been avoiding me lately?
Tristan: No I haven't, Rory raises an eyebrow. Fine yes it is. I just didn't think you would ever feel the same way I feel about you because of our past history. I told myself to be fine with just friendship and not push like before. But why didn't you saying either?
Rory looks amazed. Rory: Wow, you really have grown up and matured. I was afraid I missed my shot with you.
Tristan: What made you suddenly just confront our feelings for each other?
Rory laughs. Rory: Who else? My cousin and Steph encouraged me to come clean.
Tristan: Remind me to thank them tomorrow. Tristan chuckles. Tristan looks at the clock.
Rory: What?
Tristan: It's late maybe I should go?
Rory: No, I mean stay a little longer, it's not that late. Tristan, what are we? Are we boyfriend and girlfriend because I won't be one of the many?
Tristan thinks about this so Rory punches him in the shoulder. Tristan: Ow, that really hurt, Mare. Of course I want you to be my girlfriend. You're special to me Rory, I was just playing with you.
Rory: Okay, as our now officially my boyfriend, I will ask you nicely to sleep in the same bed with me tonight, because this house scares me and I don't want to be alone.
Tristan: I accept, but I'll need to change into pyjamas first and meet you back here in 10. Are you sure this isn't too fast for you.
Rory: No it's not, we are just sleeping, it's perfectly innocent. Now go! See you in 10.
Tristan rushes out of the room and changes and comes back in the room and slips into bed beside Rory and pulls her to him. They kiss and fall asleep afterwards.

Logan seeing secret smiles shared between Rory and Tristan. Logan: What's up with you two?
Rory, Tristan: Nothing.
Steph: Yes, Logan's right, you guys let the ball early.
Finn: Mates, let them keep whatever they are keeping a secret because sooner or later will find out because we spend most of our time together.
Mollified Steph asks. Steph: Okay so did everyone have good time at the ball last night? Colin and I had a fabulous time.
Colin: The music and the food were great.
Chloe: I loved the dancing, especially with Logan.
Logan: I would have to agree with that.
Finn: Alas, Rosemary still hasn't given in to my charms. They all groan.
Chloe: How about you Rore? How was your first ball?
Rory enthuses. Rory: I felt like a princess for the night. I had a great time with Tristan.
Tristan: Who wouldn't Tristan jokes.
Chloe: Well, I'm glad that the ball was a success. Maybe it should be an annual thing?
Steph: You're so right. People love getting all dressed up.
Logan: Slow down, Bon let's get through this weekend and even after our wedding before planning anything like this again.
Chloe pouts but nods. Colin: You know he's right, Princess? Chloe nods.
Finn hugs Chloe. Finn: Little one, today will be so much fun that this will all be a distant memory.
Chloe: Thanks, Finny-bear.
Tristan grabs Rory's hand from underneath the table and squeezes it and Rory squeezes back.
Steph: If everyone is finished with breakfast? Then meet us at the meeting point by the pond for today's activities in about 30 minutes.
Finn: In Omnia Paratis.
Steph: Colin, you and the guys get the guns and us girls will get the machine with the clay pigeons. Meet you guys there.
All: Okay. They huddle together.
Steph: And break!

Rory sees Tristan's pleading look. Rory: I swear, I'm going to regret this but I'm in.
Colin Hell yes!
Chloe: Okay, put on the suit provided and me and Steph will speak to the guy. They come back 5 minutes later smiling.
Steph: He's okay with 7 of us doing it.

Finn: Get psyched up!
Colin: Is it time yet?

Tristan: Well done, Mary.
Rory giggles. Rory: Why thank you, Dugray. She pulls him in for a kiss. Making everyone stare at her.

Chloe: I'm just glad it finally happened. I just want her to be happy. They embrace.
