Rory is trying to plan the world's greatest baby shower when, surprise, an editor from The New York Times calls to ask her to coffee. Lorelai volunteers to wrap up the party plans, and Rory goes to the city to prepare for her meeting the next day. She spends the night at Logan's and is awakened by him at an ungodly hour when he staggers in drunk, in Old Fashioned Logan-style. Everyone in town is excited about the shower, except Mrs. Kim and Luke, truly two curmudgeonly twin-souls. MamaKim and Lane are in a fight about how Lane plans to raise her children, especially as it pertains to fried shrimp and Jesus, and Luke is avoiding the Lorelai-hosted event. Speaking of Luke, he's got to find a new place to store his boat, because Liz and T.J. want it out of their garage. It sparks him to make a decision to get out of the rut he's been in, and buy a new boat. While Lorelai is patching things up between Lane and Mrs. Kim, Lane has a contraction and has to go on bedrest. Finally, Logan breaks it to Rory about his business going bust. He also regresses fully and runs off on a trip to Vegas with the loathsome Colin and Finn. Rory is pissed about it all, but rushes back to Stars Hollow in time for Lane's AWESOME baby shower, complete with Sebastian Bach singing "Hush Little Baby."
