6 | |
7 | !!Tropes |
8 | * BlatantLies: Invoked. Lane accuses Rory of lying about liking sex, like she wasn't gonna find out it's awful. |
9 | * {{Bookworm}}: Rory has read a lot of Asia travel books. With highlighters and page flags. |
10 | * CallBack: |
11 | ** For all the times Luke has given Kirk practical advice, Kirk tells Luke he can only give him a job because he's more of a "teach a man to fish" kind of guy. |
12 | ** Lane says her mother was right to say that sex sucks, and admires her for being the only woman brave enough to admit it. |
13 | * CaptainObvious: Luke explains to T.J. that he's about to fix the giant hole in his wall. |
14 | * ComicallyMissingThePoint: |
15 | ** Kirk thinks Chuck E. Cheese is a real person, but not that a giant mouse could open a chain of restaurants by itself. |
16 | ** Sookie had hoped that instead of telling Luke she slept with Christopher, Lorelai told Kirk the difference between antiperspirant and deodorant. |
17 | * ConspiracyTheory: Lane figures the narrative about sex being pleasant is just really good advertising. |
18 | * ContinuityNod: |
19 | ** Lorelai asks herself W.W.T.B.F.C.D? -- what would the barefoot contessa do? In season three, she claimed that the Barefoot Contessa talked to her through the screen once. |
20 | ** Luke claims he doesn't care that they're broken up, since Lorelai's the one who proposed anyway. Which she did, in the fifth season finale, and he caught a lot of disappointed "oh"s for it in the sixth season premier. |
21 | * EmbarrassingNickname: Lorelai nicknames Rory "loin fruit" for the morning. |
22 | * FeminineWomenCanCook: |
23 | ** Suddenly Lorelai can make waffles. |
24 | ** Averted as usual with Liz, who can't tell her oven is broken and not cooking the tunaloaf she put in it for hours. |
25 | * GrammarNazi: You can't shorten "what would the barefoot contessa do?" to "W.W.T.B.F.C.D?", because as Rory points out, "barefoot" is one word. |
26 | * HiddenDepths: Liz and T.J. know a lot about quantum physics. |
27 | * HypocriticalHumor: Lane tells Rory that she and Zach had sex on the beach "until some pervert in a diving mask showed up". |
28 | * {{Malaproper}}: Liz claims that invention is the mother of necessity. |
29 | * NoTrueScotsman: Lorelai claims that real grown-ups don't call themselves grown-ups; they call themselves adults, and they pronounce it ah-dults. |
30 | * ProductPlacement: Chuck E. Cheese. Pedro's Paradise. |
31 | * SelfDeprecation: Zach tells Rory that he learned something about himself on his honeymoon in Mexico: namely, that he is not moreally opposed to murder, he's just too cowardly to do it. |
32 | * ShoutOut: |

38 | ** Renting an Film/AnAffairToRemember is [[Recap/GilmoreGirlsS01E17 an acceptable way to deal with a breakup]] as far as Rory is concerned. |
39 | ** Lorelai argues that Creator/GwynethPaltrow is imperfect as she did Film/ShallowHal. |
40 | ** Rory claims Music/BritneySpears doesn't know which side is which on a baby. |

46 | ** T.J. watches Franchise/BattlestarGalactica. |
47 | ** Liz thinks Luke and Lorelai are like Creator/KeanuReeves and Creator/SandraBullock in ''The Lake House'', but T.J. thinks they're more like Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock in Film/{{Speed}}. |
48 | * SincerestFormOfFlattery: Kirk opens his own diner, names it Kirk's, wears a backward baseball cap and serves pancakes. |

55 | * TooMuchInformation: |
56 | ** T.J. is in this episode. |

58 | * WhatTheHellHero: Rory finds out Lorelai slept with Christopher, and figures it had to be sometime in the three days since she and Luke broke up. It pisses her off. |
