LORELAI: So, any problems?

MICHEL: With the wedding or my life?

LORELAI: One guess -- and I'll give you a hint: it's not your life.

MICHEL: Do you stage these events to torture me?

LORELAI: Yes.

MICHEL: Job well done.

LORELAI: OK, let's start again. Any problems?

MICHEL: Guests are checked in, baskets are given out, and 200,000 tons of Jordan almonds have been delivered.

LORELAI: OK, good. Did Rory call?

MICHEL: No.

LORELAI: Hmm. She's golfing all day with my father and I'm half expecting this big "save me" call to come in -- you don't care at all do you?

MICHEL: To me you are the teacher in the Charlie Brown cartoon.

LORELAI: OK, forget it. So, have the grooms arrived? Their plane was supposed to get in a 7 so I'm surprised they're not here by now.

MICHEL: Well maybe they made a run for it.

LORELAI: Ooh, somebody got stood up at the prom.

MICHEL: Oh. Dear.

LORELAI: What?

(Male twins have just walked in the front door.)

MICHEL: Are those -- ?

LORELAI: No. It would be too --

(The brides rush into the grooms' arms.)

LORELAI: -- weird.

MICHEL: You kept this from me on purpose.

LORELAI: It's like a really snooty Doublemint commercial.

MICHEL: Just let me know when the midgets and clowns arrive.

(Michel tries to leave.)

LORELAI: Oh, no, no, no. You have to get them all settled in.

MICHEL: I'm not talking to them.

LORELAI: Yes you are.

MICHEL: Well I'm not talking to them nicely.

(Cut to Emily and Richard's house.)

RICHARD: It's after 8:00. She should be here already.

EMILY: She'll be here.

RICHARD: You're supposed to tee off at your designated time.

EMILY: You pay good money to that place. You'll tee off when you tee off. Is that what you're wearing?

RICHARD: Yes.

EMILY: Hmm.

RICHARD: What's wrong with what I'm wearing?

EMILY: Nothing. It's fine.

RICHARD: This whole thing is absurd.

EMILY: She's your granddaughter.

RICHARD: She's a sixteen year old who would rather be at the mall.

EMILY: Make sure you show her all around the club, especially the rose garden.

RICHARD: I am not a guide.

EMILY: And make sure you take her to lunch and have her get dessert.

RICHARD: No one said anything about lunch.

EMILY: I hope Lorelai's clubs are still in good shape.

RICHARD: Emily you are not listening to me. I will teach her to play golf...
