Ugh Emily in this episode made me so angry. She stole the last night Lorelai and Rory had in Stars Hollow together before college. Sure, they had a redo (kinda) when Lorelai slept over the first night at Yale, but still.

I was not amused when Lorelai started laughing! I really needed Emily to be chewed out more for this behavior and manipulation. I did not think she deserved to get what she wanted! Forcing them to watch her ridiculous ballroom tapes when they deserved to have a movie marathon!

They made it sweet, but it could have been a real “you aren’t going to take this from me” moment between Emily and Lorelai. Emily usually gets her way when she oversteps Lorelai’s boundaries with Rory, and it’s very annoying.

I become really irritated while reading about pregnancy Bella at the beginning. I’m not sure if that’s because it’s in Jacob’s POV so it’s more harsh writing about her.. but her almost aloof attitude irks me.

The denial of her situation, the belief that Carlisle will just be able to transform her immediately after birth. How she’s just speaking to Renesmee as a him, because she was having her baby Edward dreams and convinced she was a boy. (Literally nothing wrong with this, but it irks me she was just thinking of a mini Edward the entire time and that was her driving thought for keeping the child)

Everyone, besides Rosalie, was suffering during this entire ordeal. Edward was blaming himself, Jacob was angry about everything, Bella was being eaten alive basically, Carlisle couldn’t find answers, Alice couldn’t see the future, none of them could feed regularly, Esme was watching her children fight and unhappy, and Jasper has to feel everyone’s negative, hopeless feelings.

This episode just makes me sad the longer i look at the situation. It use to make me really happy.

It’s how little thought or care Lorelai had for her parents reunion, how her only focus was getting Emily out of her house when Emily was obviously stressing about her renewal in the morning. How little she wanted to try and make it special for her mom.

Lorelai talks about how her parents never cared about what she wanted, but never how she also didn’t care about what they wanted either. She never had genuine interest in their lives, and she writes them off the same way they do with her when they enjoy or do something Lorelai doesn’t like.

At Lorelai’s bachelorette with Max, Emily talked about how excited she was to wear her wedding dress. How she tried it on, every single night the week before. How she knew it was the dress she was meant to marry Richard in. It was so sweet, that it made everyone go and call their partners.

We could have had more scenes like that, if the night was taken as seriously as it should have been. Lorelai barely even interacted with Emily, and it was sad because it was the entire reason Emily was there. Emily didn’t go over to Lorelai’s expecting a party, she expected to spend the night with Lorelai and Rory for her hen night. A night that Emily most likely didn’t ask Lorelai for, because she knew Lorelai wouldn’t care for it.

I don’t know this night was just so sad when you take a deeper look. Lorelai throwing together the make-shift bachelorette, without any of Emily’s friends. Lorelai deliberately getting Emily more and more drunk to make a fool of herself. Then trying to sabotage her seating arrangements?? Come on, Lorelai. Emily genuinely cared for Lorelai’s bachelorette, for crying out loud she sat alone in a bar for an hour. A bar she would NEVER be at, just to support Lorelai.
