Attending a society auction with Michel (Yanic Truesdale), Lorelai is mildly attracted to Peyton Sanders (Jon Hamm), scion of a wealthy family. Emily (Kelly Bishop) encourages Lorelai to cultivate a relationship with Sanders -- even after Lorelai has come to the conclusion that the man is a crashing bore. Meanwhile, Rory (Alexis Bledel) agrees to take care of the lawn belonging to her weird neighbor Dwight (Jason Kravits), but is unable to shut off the sprinkler system -- a minor inconvenience that leads to major complications when Jess (Milo Ventimiglia) shows up to help Rory out. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
