He hates them. Classic Luke.Emily calls Lorelai and invites her to an auction that’ll have furniture that may be great for the inn. When Michel finds out, he BEGS to go!Lorelai gets home and meets a new neighbor named Dwight who asks if she’d be willing to turn on and off his sprinkler system at his house, which he calls the Oasis, while he’s out of town. She reluctantly agrees.At the auction, Lorelai goes to get a drink and bumps into Jon Hamm and the chemistry is nuts. She doesn’t get his name, so when she gets home, she calls the auction house to try to get his name. Obviously, they can’t.So at Friday night dinner, she awkwardly gets his name from Emily. It’s Peyton.The next day, Lorelai and Rory have to run by the Oasis before they head to Luke’s. Dwight left her a note asking if she’d also be willing to go inside and water the violets. She gets a call from Peyton and he asks her out for dinner and also to a David Bowie concert.She ends up coming back by 10:15p because Peyton is real boring. But when Emily finds out that she doesn’t want to go on a 2nd date with him, it doesn’t go well.Later, Lorelai gets a call from Dwight asking if she’d be willing to change from watering 2 times a day to 3 times a day. Lorelai has to get to work, so she asks Rory if she could go for her.Lorelai gets a call from Richard and apparently Richard is very concerned about the ramifications of her not going on a 2nd date with Peyton. He begs her to go on a 2nd date so that Emily doesn’t lose her prime tea spot.Rory runs into an issue with the sprinklers and can’t get ahold of Dean. She runs to go get him but bumps into Jess first. He runs over and saves the day. They then sit there, soaking wet, making eyes with each other. He finds out Dean is on the way to help so he turns the sprinklers back on and goes on his way.At Friday night dinner, Lorelai apologizes for not thinking about how going out on a date with Peyton might affect her and she’ll go on a 2nd date if she really wants her to. Emily smiles and says it means so much that she’d even offer that and to be sure to pack the blue sweater when she goes. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
