To avoid her friends' sympathies after breaking her engagement to Max, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) embarks upon a road trip with daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel). After a disastrous sojourn at an out-of-the-way bed & breakfast, the ladies end up at Harvard, where college-bound Rory experiences feelings previously unknown to her. Upon their return, Lorelai makes an important decision which may affect the future of her relationship with Luke (Scott Patterson). And across town, Lane (Keiko Agena) returns from Seoul with a "cargo" that her superstrict mother hadn't anticipated. ~ Rovi
