Rory's Dance

After a long hiatus, we discuss S1:E9 of Gilmore Girls, so expect some Tristan hate, lots of laughter and of course a mention of the fruit bowl.

While originally against the idea, Rory decides to ask Dean to attend the Winter Formal at Chilton with her. She hesitates because they haven't yet discussed the social parameters of their relationship. Although not being a joiner, Dean accepts. 

Tristan liking Rory becomes more evident, asking her to the dance albeit last minute.

Lorelai injures her back making Rory's dress, prompting Emily to stay to take care of her while Rory is away at the dance, which gives them some bonding time. 

The dance is better than Rory expected, despite a minor run-in with Paris and a small fight between protective Dean and a jealous Tristan. 

Rory and Dean continue their evening with coffee in Stars Hollow, reading and talking at Miss Patty's, but accidentally fall asleep. 

Lorelai and Emily's mostly positive evening ends with a massive fight upon the realization Rory never made it home. Rory and Lorelai then have a fight, as well.
