Mia, former owner of the Independence Inn, is getting married in Charlotte, North Carolina. Rory doesn’t want to go because she has a lot of work to do and she wants to be around for Logan. However, Logan is acting like a jackass. Mitchum comes over to Logan’s apartment to yell at him and tell him to grow up, and Logan gets really pissed when Rory agrees with him. After a big fight, Rory decides to get the hell out of Dodge and go to Charlotte with Lorelai.

Emily is going crazy trying to deal with Richard being at home all the time. He’s walking around wearing sweatsuits and he won’t deal with anything businesslike. Emily overhears Lorelai and Rory talking about their trip to Charlotte, and she invites herself along. During the drive, Emily gets annoyed when the Girls keep talking about good times with Mia. Rory gets it and tries to explain to her mother that they’re making Emily feel bad, but Lorelai says the whole trip is about Mia and Emily should just get over it.

Mia calls the motel the night before the wedding and insists on Emily coming to the wedding. Emily’s irritated because she wanted to spend the day at a spa. Naturally, Emily doesn’t approve of anything about the wedding and she acts all bitchy the whole time. She sits on the sofa and doesn’t talk to anyone. Mia says to Lorelai that it must be hard for Emily to see her with the Girls. And to that I say: why did you insist on Emily coming to the wedding?

Logan shows up at Mia’s house during the wedding and says he wants to talk, but Rory yells at him and tells him to leave. He spends the day leaning against his car waiting for Rory to come talk to him. She finally comes outside and Logan apologizes and explains how he’s been feeling lately. He also says he has officially quit working for his father, and Rory finally warms up and says she’s proud of him.

Lane and Zack invite Luke over for dinner. Things get weird when they start talking about the lack of father figures in their lives, but it turns out they just want Luke to be the twins’ godfather. Zack comes by early the next morning to help Luke open the diner, and he annoys him with all his jabbering. He eventually starts freaking out and asking Luke all kinds of questions about being a father. Luke tells him not to panic because he’ll be good father. Then Zack gets a phone call. Lane’s water has broken. Luke closes the diner and drives Lane and Zack to the hospital. After the babies are born, Zack texts pictures to Rory.

Emily: This is one of those places that still allows cigarettes, isn’t it?
