While picking up a prescription in Hartford, Lorelei (Lauren Graham) runs into her former fiancé Max Medina (Scott Cohen), and begins to wonder if breaking off their engagement was a good idea. Back in Stars Hollow, Rory (Alexis Bledel) and Paris (Liza Weil) vie for the honor of being keynote speaker at the Chilton Bicentennial, a competition which ends on a discordant note as Paris goes off the deep end (in front of a nationwide TV audience, no less) after getting turned down by Harvard -- which, according to her convoluted logic, is punishment for having sex with her beau Jamie. Also, the viewers find out why Sookie (Melissa McCarthy) is acting so strangely...at the very moment that Sookie finds out herself.
