Episode starts with Sookie and Lorelai standing in front of the old mansion that Luke just bought. That house is friggin' huuuuuge! Sookie jokes that now Lorelai will have enough space for a sewing room. HA. Sookie also questions Lorelai about her track record with engagements -- and makes sure that she won't be bolting anytime soon.
Luke's in the diner while his brother in law TJ's installing shelves. TJ thinks he did such a great job that he starts handing out business cards, only they already had stuff printed on them and he just crossed out their stuff and wrote in his own information.
Lorelai tells Luke that the house he just bought was too big, and that she didn't want to move out of the house she loves so much. They talk about keeping the house and what it could be used for, and Luke gets guys to help him make Lorelai's house bigger.
Meanwhile, in Hartford, Rory's bored. That and she begins her 300 hours of community service. They show her in a room with all these funky looking people for her CS orientation.
They show her watching some show on TV about diving and man, she's really bored. She goes to the main house and starts chatting in Espanol with the maid of the week. I think she was from Guatemala. Rory's so bored that she even helps the maid polish the silver. Emily walks in and freaks out. Dumb grandma even asks what language they were speaking in because she didn't know it was en Espanol.
Logan doesn't appear in this episode, btw. Neither does Laine.
In Stars Hollow, some adopt-a-pet thing is going on, and dogs and cats and pot bellied pigs are everywhere. Lorelai decides she wants a pet, even though Miss Patty tries to convince the adopt-a-pet lady that Lorelai's not the best pet owner because her turtle and hamster died.
Lorelai gets a dog, and she names him PAUL ANKA. How cute is that??
Rory accidentally walks into Emily's DAR meeting. These hoity toity bitches are all tipsy and discussing which of the ForeFathers was the best lover. Names like Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and George Washington are thrown out. Emily tells Rory that a job with the DAR has opened up, and it's really flexible so she can work at home while she's doing her 300 hrs of CS. In order to work for the DAR, though, she has to join the DAR. The papers are filled out for Rory.
Lorelai goes home and finds that there's a huge ass hole in her bedroom. Luke's sister convinces Luke to let TJ help with the renovation. TJ went crazy and knocked out a friggin' hole.
Paul Anka, doesn't like stairs, so Lorelai has to carry him down the stairs. He likes jumping out of her jeep, though. And he even managed to get back into the jeep, close the door, and lock it. I like Paul Anka.
Emily drops Rory off on her first day of CS in the Jag. Emily got Richard's secretary to print out info regarding interaction with prisoners and goes down the list. She even gives Rory a pack of smokes because that's what they use to barter in prison.
Rory's fellow CS don't like her off the bat and she offers them the smokes. Fast forward to later and they show her picking up trash on the side of the road and she gets into a shoving match with another chick and they get into a chick scrap. Rory gets called in and lectured by the head dude in charge and he tells her to put her fight face away.
She realizes there ain't shit to do in Hartford so she goes back home to Stars Hollow and visits Luke at the diner. He pours her some coffee and he lets her know that he and her mother are engaged. She doesn't even take a sip of her coffee when she says that she has to go.
Lorelai's pissed that Luke told Rory, but he defends himself and calls her out, saying that both she and Rory are stupid and they need to work it out. Lorelai goes back to her whole "tough love" speech.
Final scene has Lorelai driving down the highway and she spots Rory picking up trash. She pulls over to the side of road and they exchange words. Rory thanks her mom for letting her know about the engagement. And Lorelai just takes off.
Next week they have Rory shacking with Logan and gossiping with Emily. Lorelai also tells Luke that they can't set a date for the wedding until everything is good again with Rory.
