Really Authentic Chinese Food

In this episode we start by complimenting our very authentic Chinese food (As authentic as Al’s Pancake World) , we talk about why you never ask a women how many coffees she has had in a day. Both of us talk aobut our fan theory for why Paris and Rory have been having a better relationship so far despite the how not showing a softening of the animosity that we saw in the last season due to their shared desire to ensure The Franklin is a excellent student run paper. We explain to any zoomers listening what a video store is. Simon decides to spend a minute talking about Director Paul Verhoven. We spend the majority of the episode discussing Richard’s less then admirable conduct after effectively being forced to spend a day in Star’s Hollow so that he doesn’t annoy Emily. From his comments on her breakfast (which we think leads to Luke stocking grapefruit in future episode) to her conduct at work, and how much food she orders from Al’s Pancake World, as well as his attempt to get Dean’s car he built for Rory declared unsafe. We discuss why The Franklin doing an article on small town censorship would have actually been a award winner in the early to mid 2000s. We have a little side discussion asking what bands did Richard mean when he referred to Rory not having Death Rockers as posters on her walls. We discuss about the Harvard Yale fight, Simon slightly defending Richard’s point but not his way at making it. We end discussing how we both thought this episode would have had a much darker ending when we originally saw this involving Richard.
