Now that Luke and Lorelai have reconciled, Kirk is collecting everyone’s ribbons. Lulu won’t give hers back because it’s pink and she likes pink. Kirk has been having problems with his mother lately. She’s allergic to Lulu. Luke tells him he should move out of his mother’s house.

A photographer from a travel magazine is coming to the Dragonfly because it’s one of the top ten inns in Connecticut. Michel has been to California and he comes back with Botox and whitened teeth. He brings back a smog globe for Lorelai and He’s Just Not That Into You for Sookie. He also got to be on The Price is Right and he won a motor home. The Price is Right people drive up with it on the day the photographer is there, and it gets in the way. Lorelai gets pissed and yells at Michel. She feels bad later and tries to help him sell it.

Rory goes to Friday night dinner and Emily is surprised and disappointed when Lorelai doesn’t come with her. She thinks that because she told Luke to go back to Lorelai, things should be back to normal. She assumes Luke must not have done it.

Lorelai and Rory go shopping and they see Logan having lunch with some girl. Lorelai gets mad about him being on a date, but Rory says they’ve agreed to keep things casual. When Logan asks if she saw him, she acts like she’s totally fine with the whole thing. The next day, Logan’s friend Robert asks Rory to go with him to Finn’s birthday party. Rory accepts.

It’s a Quentin Terrantino themed party and Rory wears her Chilton uniform. Logan is Bruce Willis, his date is the Bride and Robert is “dead extra number two.” It looks like a pretty interesting party. Logan comes up to Rory and says he wants to leave with her, but she reminds him they both came with dates. Logan is bothered and he doesn’t like that he’s bothered.

Luke and Lorelai go on their first post-breakup date, and when they get back they find Kirk sleeping in the boat in Lorelai’s garage. He’s taken Luke’s advice and moved out of his mother’s house. He ends up sleeping in Michel’s mobile home.

Lorelai has gotten Luke a cell phone and he doesn’t know how to do anything, so Lorelai has put her number on speed dial for him. Emily comes to the diner and yells at Luke for not getting back together with Lorelai. Luke speed dials Lorelai so she can hear Emily’s yelling, so she races to the diner and tells Emily to shut up and get the hell out.

Kirk: I had an imaginary girlfriend for a while when I was younger, but she left me.
