Rory enters and apologizes for being late. "You'll pay," Lorelai says. Emily asks Rory to sit down and tell her all about Yale. Lorelai says that if she doesn't, then Emily will find out anyway. Rory says that Yale is "interesting" and more free-form than she thought. Emily says Rory's an adult now, and they will treat her like one. Lorelai says that doesn't happen in the Gilmore house. Emily reminds Lorelai that they've switched subjects. She asks Rory if she has any weekend plans. Rory says she's going on a date. The women are so excited, and ask Rory for the particulars. Rory says it's the guy from her English class. Lorelai tries to make Rory whisper with her in a secret club, speaking in a way that shows Emily that Lorelai and Rory have been discussing all of this for days, but Emily keeps asking questions until she finds out that Rory already turned this boy down once, and this date was because Rory initiated it. Emily is so upset. "Rory, you're in Yale. Not Amsterdam. How you conduct yourself socially is as important as how you conduct yourself academically." Rory promises she was very proper about it. Lorelai says that Rory had a nice Tiffany lampshade over her red light. Emily asks about the boy, but Rory says she plans on finding out about his parents and where he's from on the date itself. Lorelai just wants to know what she's going to wear. Lorelai offers to let Rory borrow something, but Emily says that Rory will not go traipsing around in Lorelai's whore swatches. She calls it "One of your Sex and the City ensembles." Lorelai has no idea how Emily knows about Sex and the City. Instead of getting the last joke in, Emily has to settle for scoffing indignantly.
