Gilmore Girls Season Seven, Episode Eighteen: Hay Bale Maze
It’s Spring Fling time in Stars Hollow and Rory brings Logan home for it. Rory shows Logan around town and takes him to the diner, where Zack talks to them about the twins, Kwon and Steve. Lorelai is awkward about Logan coming home with Rory, but plays it cool. Then she tells Sookie all the things she doesn’t like about Logan, like that he quit his job and is living with Rory at Paris and Doyle’s apartment.
Rory has had an interview with a newspaper in Providence. It went really well and now Rory is checking her phone every two minutes to see if the paper has called. She finally hears back and she’s gotten the job. She immediately starts listing all the reasons she shouldn’t take the job, the main one being that it would take her out of the running for a fellowship she wants. Lorelai and Logan disagree on whether it’s more important to make money or follow your dreams. Lorelai says she’s worried about Logan’s lackadaisical attitude about money and responsibility, and he says he left his world of privilege to do things his way, just like Lorelai did. It becomes a bonding moment and they have some ice cream and pie together. Rory eventually decides she’s going to go for the fellowship and turn down the job.
Taylor has reallocated the entire Spring Fling budget to go into the hay bale maze. He wants it to take over the town. The maze is oh, so subtle in its symbolism. Rory and Logan come to a fork in the road, and they hold hands and go down one path together. Lorelai gets a little lost in the maze and she finds Luke in the middle. She apologizes out of the blue for everything that happened between them. Luke apologizes, too, and then he tells Lorelai how to get out of the maze.
Zack: I’ve mastered the maze!
Other notes: I just want to reiterate that Lane and Zack named their twins Steve and Kwon. I think that’s hilarious.
