Lorelai brings Christopher to Friday night dinner, much to Richard and Emily's delight. However, when Christopher tells everyone that Sherry sent him a letter about how much she regrets leaving him and Gigi and how she wants Gigi to come visit her in Paris, Christopher and Lorelai get into an argument during dinner. Logan returns to the States on business and surprises Rory. At first Rory is ecstatic to see him, but after having dinner with Logan and his new business colleagues, she soon realizes that she's not a part of his business world. Meanwhile, Stars Hollow is covered in a bad odor when a train carrying pickles derails and Taylor refuses to pay for cleanup.

Episode Quotes |
| |
(to Sookie and Michel about the smell)
Lorelai: I don't think we are having a communal massive heart attack. | Michel: If all the air around you smelled like pickles and there was no where to run, no where to hide, would you find that at all bothersome? | (Christopher grabs for the remote)
Christopher: Gimme that.
Lorelai: No, no.
Christopher: Gimme.
Lorelai: No! Not until you explain your choices.
Christopher: What?
Lorelai: The View, Girlfriends, Sabado Gigante? Who controls this thing, you or Pedro Almodovar?
Christopher: It's the nanny!
Lorelai: Sure, it's a likely story.
Christopher: Gimme, gimme, gimme. | Rory: Why are you smiling at me?
Logan: You are very cute when you're jealous. | Rory: And most of all I hate the fact that in a few seconds you will be in that car leaving me again.
Logan: That's a hell of a long way to go just to say I miss you.
Rory: Any thoughts or response?
Logan: I miss you too Ace.
Rory: Five words. You only used five words.
Logan: Yeah, well, I'm not done yet.
(Logan kisses her) | Lorelai: Uh, tennis balls.
Christopher: I actually have tennis balls.
Lorelai: Penn or Wilson?
Christopher: You're joking?
Lorelai: Paul Anka's must be Penn, they must be new, they must be green, not orange and green, just green. |

Episode Goofs |
| |
Near the end of the episode, Richard throws his napkin down twice when he gets up to see Emily's jail photos on Lorelai's camera phone. | During Friday night dinner, Emily mentions that Christopher and Lorelai once stole and drank a 1975 wine that they had been saving for 10 years, which would mean that they drank it in 1985. However, Rory was born in 1984 and Lorelai and Christopher split up once Lorelai ran away with Rory, making it highly unlikely that the two of them drank the bottle together. |
