Hal and the boys get competitive when the local church starts to undercut them on Christmas tree prices.

On the eve of Sookie's wedding, Lorelai and Rory's father spend a romantic night together, and Rory is so happy to see Jess she greets him with a surprisingly passionate kiss.

Lorelai is determined to win the annual Stars Hollow dance marathon, and forces Rory to be her partner, and Rory and Jess argue nonstop, even with the townspeople whirling around them on the dance floor.

Lorelai impulsively calls Rory's father Christopher in the midst of her wild bachelorette party and realises that she can't marry Max.

While Rory struggles to keep the budding rivalry between Dean and Jess under control, Lorelai invites most of the citizens of Stars Hollow to an elaborate feast.

Lorelai becomes increasingly serious about Max. Luke's girl friend accuses him of being in love with Lorelai, and Rory attempts to win Dean back.
