| And, come to think of it, Rory stood up to Emily VERY, VERY, VERY well
| to Emily when it came to fighting FOR Lorelai about Jason or Luke.
|
| I remember one time in particular, I forget which episode, where Rory
| was cold toward Emily all through dinner (a dinner which Lor didn't
| attend), and Emily called Rory on it. Rory was pissed off because
| something happened between Lorelai and Emily re: Luke (I think it was
| when Emily interfered in the relation****p, and Luke stopped seeing Lor
| for a while). She ended up blowing up at Emily about how she was
| fulfilling her contract/agreement to come to dinner, but there was
| NOTHING in said agreement about how Rory was expected to be sun****ne and
| roses and a pleasant conversationalist and whatnot. At the end of her
| rant, Rory said something like, “Now, we've had dessert. I'll skip the
| ****t. Goodnight, Grandpa.”
|
I thought that Rory was annoyingly passive aggressive during that dinner,
instead of just calmly saying what was on her mind.
Another instance, when Rory wasn't even mad, but was afraid to speak up:
the night before starting Yale - Rory wasn't even able to tell Emily she'd
like to leave to spend time with Lorelai the last night before starting
school. She had to have Lorelai come rescue her.
