geebsFRAACCKKK! Call me lame but I was ready to slam my head against the table over the Luke/Lorelai business. So, the whole town's curious about the song, and Lorelai's trying to play it cool. But she's leaning towards a reunion, I think. And Luke's all egg-cited but is trying to play it cool too, but gets a necklace (that Liz says was inspired by Lorelai anyways) while getting earings for Rory's graduation gift. Alas, when Babette and Miss Patty pester her one more time at Luke's she tries to play it off and was all "I was just drunk", which Luke overhears and is all hurt. But Lorelai is oblvious to this fact, so when Luke acts cold and terse, now Lorelai's hurt and thinks he was all embarassed about the song. So they spend the whole ep passively telling each other to take a chance on the other, and we're back to this with only two eps (well, one now) in the season.
So its Rory's graduartion. During the town hall meeting, the vote to have Kurt do some bit where he locks himself in a lucite box suspended over the town square. Then, since the townies are all incensed that they can't all go to Rory's graduation (Oh, c'mon, I know they all practically raised her and are like family, but be serious, you can't like bring 50 people to the graduation ceremony), they decide they will do a big re-enactment of Rory's graduation. The townies are weird.
At the pre-grad party, the grandparentals do a silly (but kinda sweet, I guess) song-toast. Christopher is there, and it looks like he and Lor can actually still be friends, even after all this. Then Logan finally pops the question. If I can just bring up one of my pet peeves, its people who propose in public like that. That's a lot of pressure for the girl! I mean, how can she say no without causing like huge embarassment for the guy. So its a lot of pressure to say yes! She takes Logan outside and says she's flattered, but asks for time to think about it. Then she gradulates and her parents and grandparents are all proud, but then Logan asks for an answer after the ceremony. Rory's clearly not ready, so she asks if they can do the long distance thing, but he's all, its all or nothing. So it ends up being nothing.
So post-Logan's party, Mac is having trouble choosing between Bronson and Max. Veronica, on the other hand, tells Piz that they should forget the party and stay friends when he calls with the case of the week. Ouch. In the case of the week, Paul Rudd plays the surviving member of some band called "My Pretty Pony". He's clearly a shell of his former self, his partner having died and now he makes his money singing along with old recordings of him. So he gets drunk and does drugs and acts like a total A-hole because he feels he's a total sellout. Piz tries to encourage him to try some of his own stuff, but Paul Rudd is clearly not confident enough to strike out on his own(and manages to call Piz everything but Piz- Fez, Buzz, Pez, wtf?!).
Anyways, they need Paul to do a benefit to save the station, as some other DJ cursed on the air and the FCC is "fining them up the wazoo". So the pressure is on Piz, whom Katie from SBTB:TNC (i.e. Taylor James from OTH, or that real hot chick who's gramps died in the bar in Its Always Sunny in Philidelphia), reprising her role as station manager, picked to babysit Paul Rudd. So unless they find the backing tapes, they're kinda screwed.
Red herring #1, a chinese teacher (well, a white lady who teaches Chinese) who was a fan of Paul Rudd back in the day and snuck into his hotel room. They think she stole the tape after he rejects her (turns out they were communicating online, but he was looking at the wrong user pictures, ha!)
Red herring #2, that bellboy dude Ratner that Veronica framed that one time. He belongs to "Semites for the Savior", who hate Paul Rudd and want to end the show. But, it wasn't him either.
Turns out, he just picked up the wrong bags in the airport. As Ronnie and Piz look through the bag, they find a CD of his new stuff and a notebook with new song lyrics. So they lie and say they're stuck in traffic in an effort to get him to do his new stuff. He does, and its a hit!
Veronica calls Piz a good guy, and at first I'm thinking, not good enough to date though, apparently, but then they were actually holding hands. Piz reveals to Paul Rudd the little trick, and he's cool with it, for obvious reasons. Then he (Paul Rudd, not Piz) asks the Chinese teacher for a drink when she shows up backstage saying she's still pissed at him, but she loved his new stuff.
In the B-plot, Logan needs to come up with a business plan for class. So after seeing Dick make an ass out of himself in some website where people send in videos of themselves dancing along to their car as it coasts (wherien Dick runs over his own foot, what a moron!), he enlists Mac's help. He wants her to build a website about rating asses. She in turn enlists Max's help and they're all flirty. Mac forgoes payment for a 50% stake in the website. And then ends up breaking up with Bronson because they just don't mesh. Oh, and Logan acts all broody near the end, wondering if V ever cheated with Piz while he was dating her, to which Mac says he's an idiot, and not to ask about Veronica's love life again. I mean, yes, she's V's friend, but she's also Parker's, and that's uncool to act all interested in Ronnie while he's dating Parker, and not only that, asking their mutual friend all about it. Anyways, he gives his presentation, and is legitmately all excited about it, but the teacher cuts him off because his website is about asses, though I'm unsure if "he's heard enough and its fine" or "he's heard enough and he's giving him an F for being a smart-ass".
In the C?-plot, Keith and ex-deputy Leo team up to stake out Fitzpatricker Danny Boyd possibly stealing things from Leo's new place of work. But when they stake things out, they see Vinnie Van Lowe with him. Turns out Vinnie was "infiltrating their gang" and ends up locking them up in the store during the robbery, handing them gift-wrapped to Keith and the Sheriff's office. Then Leo's gets rehired as a deputy. Keith says he feels sorry for Leo being fired over the whole deal. I guess he forgot that Leo was originally fired for stealing evidence and selling it to Logan, who destroyed it because he didn't want the world seeing Lily and his dad fracking. Not to mention it did help tank the case against Aaron, getting him off. Oh, and Vinnie is apparently running for sheriff in the special election for the sheriff. Even with this good deed done, who would really vote for this sleazeball?!
