Hoping to make amends to her parents for accepting Christopher's help in paying for Rory's tuition, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) suggests that Emily (Kelly Bishop) reinstate her traditional Friday Night Dinner. Meanwhile, Lorelai has trouble pretending she doesn't mind that Luke (Scott Patterson) is spending more time with his daughter April (Vanessa Marano) than with her; and the Yale newspaper staff walks out on the insufferable Paris (Liza Weil), forcing Rory to break her reconciliation date with Logan (Matt Czuchry) in order to meet the deadline. Thus, by the time the first of the "new" Friday Night Dinners gets under way, there are plenty of hot potatoes on the table. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
