BRAN’S GILMORE GIRLS (SEASON 2 EPISODE 16) SYNOPSIS

We start at Luke's where some serious renovations are going on. Lorelai and Rory show up and Lorelai gets a call from her mom. She tricks her into agreeing to go to a spa weekend together. But Lorelai is on the case - she plans all their spa appointments to happen at separate times. Naturally, Emily picks her up in a limo.

Paris is looking for someone to study with this weekend. Rory says I have big plans.

When Emily and Lorelai arrive, Lorelai is shocked that the schedule has been changed. Emily explains she called to make sure they could do everything together!

Rory is making out with Dean. He asks if he can come over since her mom is gone and Rory says no. She wants to be alone tonight. He's confused but what else is new.

Back at the spa, it's impossible to relax with Emily around.

Paris crashes Rory's night alone. Rory agrees to study with her for 1 hour.

Lorelai convinces Emily to leave the spa with her and go get a steak. Rebels!

Jess comes over with a care package from Luke's. They do some flirty banter and he takes his jacket off to get comfy. He's shocked to see that Paris is there. She invites Paris to stay which bums him out.

Lorelai and Emily end up having to sit at the bar - very unlike Emily. But Emily is loving it.

Back at the house, Paris and Jess are arguing about books when Dean calls - he says he's on his way but will only stay a minute. She begs him not to come. She says Paris is here. Don't come. He's like I'll just be a sec. So she begs Jess to leave before he gets there. Of course, Dean is already there. He's real mad. Jess is like I really was just dropping food off. Paris, picking up on the tension, takes the blame. She says she invited Jess over. They kind of make up but he says he's still gonna leave and she kisses him.

She goes to thank Paris. She says you helped me tonight, I helped you. She goes to leave but Rory encourages her to spend the night, like friends. Paris is pumped.

Back at dinner, a hot older man comes over to hit on Emily. He asks her to dance and Lorelai encourages her to get out there. One fast dance turns to a slow dance. She gets uncomfortable and leaves and takes it out on Lorelai.

When they get back to the spa, Emily asks why they can't have what she and Rory have. She says me and Rory are best friends. She then says why don't we steal the robes. It'll be a thing we did together and they do it!

The episode ends at Luke's the next morning. Rory goes to thank Luke for the care package which he knows nothing about. She starts talking to Jess, giving him a hard time. Dean is watching through the window. Lorelai comes to talk to him and he's like Rory wouldn't lie, right? And she says Rory wouldn't lie and smiles.
