The reason why this episode was such a breath of fresh air was because I felt that at Season 6, GG had drifted from its original spark by focusing solely on drama and the individual problems that both Lorelai and Rory had. While this was to show the other side of their relationship and also showed Rory being defiant and actually gaining a foothold as her own person, I found it to be long drawn out and mundane at the same time. This show from its start had quite some drama but was also hilarious to watch and this episode was the first one in season 6 that I truly enjoyed with all its quick witted humor and steamy fights with Emily and Richard. Friday night dinners in all its glory were the selling point of this show, as we all love to hate them!
All in all, this was the true essence of the show and I was glad to see it back when I watched this episode.
