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.

Christopher brings his new girlfriend (guest star Mädchen Amick) to Stars Hollow, throwing Lorelai and Rory for a loop.

A suspicious Lorelai catches Jess in Rory's room and accuses him of stealing a bracelet; Luke impulsively decides to buy the building where he lives.

Lorelai is angry when Rory tells Emily about their home's termite damage and Emily offers a repair loan.

Lorelai's retired father visits and drives her and Rory crazy critizing all aspects of their lives.
