Episode 9.22 "To Larry Wong: Thanks for Everything"

The newest addition to the Danes/Gilmore clan is proving popular with everyone as Luke and Lorelai bring little Ellie home to Stars Hollow. In fact, some of the residents are perhaps a bit too interested; surely you shouldn't have to deal with paparazzi when you're only a few weeks old? Richard and Emily are concerned for their new granddaughter's future, while Rory's concentrating on her little sister's life in order to avoid complications in her own. In addition to dodging townies and changing diapers, sad news at the diner means that Luke is saying goodbye (and thanks for everything) to a familiar face.

Episode 9.21 "Baby Danes's First Day...Ever"

This is the big one! With Baby Danes about to make an appearance, hijinks abound from the Hollow to the hospital. Luke and Lorelai are otherwise occupied, leaving Rory and April to handle everything from cell phones to CDs to junk food runs. The town gossips go to new heights - and distances! - to get the scoop, while Hep Alien makes their own special "delivery." Meanwhile, Richard and Emily may be MIA, but Jimmy, Paul, and a couple of Barrys make an appearance. It's a little on the wacky side, but we wouldn't want it any other way when it's Baby Danes's first day... well, EVER!

Episode 9.20 Strange Bedfellows

Remorse and repercussions abound when Rory's softball injury meets with less than stellar reviews. Kevin is feeling the heat, and feeling the need to make a peace offering. Meanwhile, bedrest begets boredom which in turn pushes Luke to the brink and Lorelai learns that a life of leisure is not all a bed of roses. Tensions are high, everyone is one edge. Can an unexpected visitor broker peace? It doesn't take a U.S. Senator to know that politics, even the family kind, can make for Strange Bedfellows.

Episode 9.19 Something Old, Something New, Something Black and Something Blue

At the Dragonfly, plans to cover Lorelai's duties are finally going into overdrive. The discussion of such important decisions leads to exactly what you would expect - sniping and arguments amongst the staff. Thankfully, the atmosphere elsewhere is a little lighter, as romance is in the air! Two of Stars Hollow's finest are going on their very first date, and farther afield, Paris and Doyle's big day is upon them. Of course Rory has her Maid of Honor duties to think of, but a favor she does for Kevin threatens to derail her best laid plans. Whatever happens, we promise you something old, something new, something black and something blue!

Episode 9.18: How Do You Say Unsettled in Swahili?

It's a busy week in the hollow, as Lorelai's due date grows closer and she and Luke try to fit in a bit of househunting before the big day. The tight timeline causes tension between the elder Gilmores, as Emily takes on extra duties at work, helping to prepare the inn for her daughter's absense. Elsewhere, Rory's dealing with a completely different kind of tension, as her most recent online date seems to actually go well. Sookie and Jackson have romantic plans of their own, too bad they just keep getting derailed! Everything's a little bit out of whack, but can someone tell us, how do you say unsettled in Swahili?

9.17 Vested Interests

Rory is getting into the swing of things at work, and her most recent assignment has her thinking hard about her relationship with her father. Chris and Rory might be far apart, but a different father/daughter pair is suddenly spending more time together, as Richard asks for Lorelai's help on a project. She may be feeling a bit closer to her dad, but Lorelai's putting some distance between her and Luke. With a little research, hopefully her loving husband can figure out the problem. After all, he does have a vested interest in the outcome.

9.16 Oh, Bee-Have!

We'll just go ahead and spell it out for you - St. Patrick's Day in Stars Hollow is normally filled with green snow, dancing leprechauns, and beer, but this year, Taylor has other plans. Lorelai is disappointed, but, as usual, Taylor is getting his own way, so all the Gilmore-Danes crew is soon on board. Rory's got a busy week as she starts her new job, but that doesn't stop her making a trip back home to participate, armed with embarrassing first day of work stories to boot. Between IQ tests, cookie overload, and a little rule-breaking, it just might make you tell someone - oh, bee-have!

9.15 The Pros and Cons of the Winds of Change

This week it's the Gilmore Girls' turn to exercise a little free will. Rory's weighing job possibilities and Lorelai and Luke are discussing options for the baby's birth. It may be pregnancy hormones or just two very stubborn people butting heads, but it looks like there's some trouble in paradise. At least they don't need a mediator, which is more than we can say for Luke and Anna. Cue the pro/con lists, because the winds of change are whirling quickly into town and some decisions just have to get made!

Proving that even Hartford can be a small town, word of Rory's run-in at traffic school has reached her grandparents. The question is, will they manage not to intervene? A better source of advice comes in the form of a phonecall from an old friend. While Rory is busy making decisions, Lorelai has picked up a new hobby, which is making both Luke and Sookie very nervous. Luke, however, has problems of his own to worry about, as Anna finally makes plans to come back to Connecticut, giving him plenty of food for thought.
