Set in a storybook Connecticut town populated by an eclectic mix of dreamers, artists and everyday folk, this multigenerational drama about family and friendship centers around Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter, Rory. Lorelai owns the town's bed-and-breakfast, the Dragonfly Inn, with best friend/chef Sookie, and contends with weekly dinners with eccentric, well-off parents Richard and Emily Gilmore (who always have something to say about their daughter's life). After high school, Rory attends Yale University but frequently returns to Stars Hollow to visit her mom.

Students bombard Lorelai with questions about her teenage pregnancy at the high-school's career day, embarrassing the PTA moms.

Lorelai goes on a date with a man she met at an auction; Rory gets Jess' help when she cannot turn off a neighbor's sprinkler system.

Lorelai reluctantly attends Sherry's baby shower and learns more about Christopher's life than she wanted to know.

Lorelai is determined to win the annual Stars Hollow dance marathon and forces Rory to be her partner; Rory and Jess argue nonstop, even with the townspeople whirling around them on the dance floor.
