9!!Tropes
10* AndThereWasMuchRejoicing: Paris quits her job as editor. After she leaves the staff room, everyone cheers.
11* ArtisticLicenseGeography: Richard declares that he has bought Exit-36 to 38. Why Richard and Emily would buy a stretch of highway in Georgia is a bit of a mystery.

13* CompanionCube: Rory thinks her books look sad after being bannished to the hallway.
14* EmbarrassingNickname: Rory calls Paris "hot-plate Harriet".
15* GodwinsLaw: Downplayed: Even Hitler came out of his bunker once in a while. Paris never comes out of her cardboard fortress that serves as her office in the newsroom.
16* MamasBabyPapasMaybe: Richard and Emily question whether April really is Luke's daughter, seeing as a twelve-year-old and her uncle performed the DNA test.
17* MathematiciansAnswer: Lorelai informs Rory that June third will still happen this year even if there's no wedding on that day.
18* MeetTheInLaws:
19** Luke has to do it again after he got back together with Lorelai.
20** Logan meets Christopher.
21* MessyHair: Paris on her last day as editor looks like she hasn't brushed her her at all during her short tenure.
22* MustHaveCoffee: Defied. Rory suggests everyone in the newsroom get coffee, but a girl says she's already so wired she's jumping out of her skin, so the idea is shot down.
23* NoExceptYes: Emily gets Lorelai to agree to bring Luke next Friday by establishing that neither one is saying "no", they're just not saying "yes".
24* PaperThinDisguise: Emily suggests she and Richard can disguise themselves with glasses and fake noses to visit Yale.
25* ProductPlacement: X-box 360
26* ProperlyParanoid: Emily and Richard find it suspicious that April showed up just when Luke got engaged to a woman of means.
27* RunningJoke: Yale journalists saying they won't vote for someone as editor and apologizing to them.
28* ShoutOut:
29** Lorelai fantasizes about being Mrs. Creator/GeorgeClooney.
30** Rory gives the following advice to her mother: ''[[Music/NoDoubt Don't Speak]]''.
31** Paris doesn't want to be Judith Miller at her newpaper, as she would have to overdo her lipstick.

33** Michel accuses Luke of dressing like a Comicstrip/{{Peanuts}} character.
34** Lorelai comments that Emily and Richard have more horror stories than Creator/WSomersetMaugham. Luke doesn't remember which one he was.
35** Lorelai's inner jury is out on all rich handsome dudes because of Creator/BradPitt.
36** Chris once got Lorelai Music/PatBenatar tickets for her birthday.
37** Rory had a peaceful normal day hanging out with her Dad, which Lorelai thinks is very Series/SeventhHeaven.
38** Rory sees through Lorelai's act because she doesn't call her [[Literature/TheScarletLetter Hester Prynne]].
39* TheStarscream: Paris's interpretation of Rory is that she's this.
40* TheStoolPigeon: Christopher feels like this as he tells Lorelai that Rory moved in with Logan, and asks her not to rat him out about ratting Rory out.
41* TitleDrop: Lorelai informs Luke that he's been Gilmored.
42* TrophyWife: A guy named Brian Hunter had one, but she left him because he didn't update his insurance policy.
43* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: Or at least awkwardness. When Luke and Lorelai discuss the dinner afterwards, they talk about how Emily and Richard kept refering to Luke as family, meaning they on some level validated their relationship. They don't know how to feel about it.
