22 - Luke gives the best hugs, truly. The hair-ruffling thing just melts me.

26 - Awww.

Favorite Hugs

1.   Lorelai is with Sookie and Michel when she finds out Gran has died.  Michel offers her a hug.  "A little weird, huh?" "Yeah, extremely." "Heart in the right place, but never again?" "Thank G-d."  (The Reigning Lorelai)

4.  Lorelai brags on Rory getting accepted into Harvard, Princeton, and Yale.  Luke awkwardly hugs/pats her head.  "Oh." "Oh." "Okay." "Wow." "Ah, I'm not good at hugging." "Oh, I thought it worked."  (A Tale of Poes and Fire)

7.  Lorelai leaves Rory at Yale.  For the first time, at least.  "So. . .this is it." "This is it." "Learn a lot of stuff." "I'll try." "And, uh, you know, keep in touch." "Well, we'll at least exchange Christmas cards." "With a letter detailing what's happened over the year." "And a current photo." "Don't joke!" "You started it." "I was masking my pain."  (The Lorelai's First Day at Yale)

10.  After her humiliating dinner with Gran grilling her about her lack of money to finish work on the Dragonfly, Lorelai sits on a park bench with Luke and breaks down.  He gently hugs her and strokes her hair as she cries.  "You are not failing."  (The Incredible Shrinking Lorelais)

11.  Jess thanks Luke for all the help over the past two years.  "Well, it's good to hear, but I kind of knew that." "Yeah, but, in a relationship -- any relationship -- it's important to let the other person know you appreciate them so you don't create barriers that delay any hope for reciprocation." "I think I read that somewhere." "Yeah?" "You're hoping for reciprocation? You got it. I'm here, Jess. I'm always here." "Thanks. The tie work out?" "The tie was perfect."  (Last Week Fights, This Week Tights)

16.  Lorelai and Sookie realize at the same time that Sookie is pregnant.  Lorelai and Rory run to hug her.  "Oh my G-d....oh my G-d....you're pregnant!" "I’m pregnant! Oh my G-d, I’m pregnant!" "You’re pregnant?" "I’m pregnant!"  (The Big One)

17.  Rory finds out she's going to Chilton.  "Really?!" "Really." "I don't believe this! Oh my G-d, I'm going to Chilton!" "Yeah." "Sookie, I'm going to Chilton!" "I'll make cookies. Protestants love oatmeal."  (Pilot)

18.  Rory finally gets back from Washington DC.  She and Lorelai run toward each other in the airport and fall down hugging.  "I am so glad to see you!" "No, I’m glad to see you!" "I’m never leaving home again." "Aw, that’s my emotionally stunted girl!"  (Those Lazy Hazy Crazy Days)

21.  Babette and Miss Patty find out Luke and Lorelai are engaged and come hunting him down.  "Where the hell is he?" "There! He's right there!" "Get over here you!" "I can't believe it!" "You finally did it you dumb son of a bitch! You finally got in there and closed the deal!"  (New & Improved Lorelai)

25.  Richard & Emily find out Rory is going to Yale (and that it's okay for them to be excited about it).  "She’s going to Yale!" "She’s going to Yale!"  (Happy Birthday, Baby)

Okay my idea for the next game may end up just one big hot mess, heh, but I'd like to do Favorite Random Moments.  These are moments that don't really have anything to do with anything, but are memorable just because they are funny, or sweet, or touching, or nostalgic, or whatever.  I'll post the first one, which always makes me die laughing and I always have to watch it three or four times before I can move on.

Favorite Random Moments

1.  Lorelai goes back out to the Jeep when she realizes Rory isn't at FND yet, and does a weird little dance to the song on the radio. Emily knocks on the window and scares her half to death. "So I put my purse on the seat and I put the keys in the car, and naturally the radio came on 'cause that's what it does, and, uh, Shadow Dancing was playing, which was one of my all time favorite songs in junior high." "And you forgot to look for your lip gloss." "Just for a second." "Which makes sense since it's in the ashtray right next to you."  (The Fundamental Things Apply)

Luke and Lorelai are packing Rory's stuff in the truck and Kirk strolls by with a parachute.

Michel jogs around the square (seriously?) to covertly deliver a CD to Rory.

The diner is being renovated. Sheetrock is falling. Out of the blue, Jess pulls out an umbrella to cover Lorelai and Rory.

When the roommates are discussing the message left on their door and Paris says she has her "East Side 860 guys" on it. 

When Dave gives Lane a coded message about where he'll be during the dance marathon. 

The entire scene where Robert asks Rory to the Tarantino dance. 

Emily and Lorelai dancing in matching outfits down the runway. 

Kirk staying at Lorelai's and getting yelled at to turn the TV off.

3.  Paris and Rory decide they're done with Spring Break and are going to leave as soon as the beach stops spinning.  Glenn washes up with the tide.  "Glenn!

"I’ve been running around this stupid square for over an hour." "Why?" "Why? Because the plan was to drop the CD at nine o’clock." "No, it got changed to ten. I told my mom and she said she’d pass it on. She didn’t pass it on, did she?"  (It Should've Been Lorelai)

12.  Rory, Paris, Janet, and Tanna try to figure out who could have written Die, Jerk on their door.  Paris has her list narrowed down from twenty-six to five.  "And my five are already taken care of." "They're taken care of?" "I got my East Side 860 partners on it."  (Die, Jerk)

13.  Dave stops by the dance marathon to see Lane.  He improvises a story when Mrs. Kim shows up.  "So if for some reason I'm not back here in twenty minutes, that means that I'm gonna be over there, on the church steps, waiting for my parents to get out so that I can tell them about the great sandwiches that they missed. Okay? Okay, great. Thanks a lot and I hope to see you soon." "I hope he comes back. He seemed hungry."  (They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?)

Oh. Pleasure." "Have you read it?" "I’m waiting for the film to come out." "Yeah, I heard Renee Zellweger is gaining a ton of weight to play the peasant." "Listen, I was wondering if you’re doing anything tomorrow night." "Oh. Um, I don’t know. Why?" "Well, it’s Finn’s birthday. He’s having a party. Lots of booze, no food whatsoever."  (Pulp Friction)

19.  Jess leaves the diner - quickly - when he realizes Liz's friends arranged for a stripper to come by.  "Got a package here." "From who? I'm not expecting anything."

20.  Luke and Nicole come by the diner for coffee after their first date.  Jess offers to go out for about an hour.  "Go where?" "Out." "Out where?" "Out....for about an hour."

21.  Mrs. Kim has had enough of Lane's wallowing over breaking up with Zach.  She locks the door, covers the windows, and pulls out a hidden bottle of sake.  "Lane, it's been six weeks since you come home. You have grieved, and now we move on. Ahh. One more."  (The Perfect Dress)

"I can come back later." "Will you please get in there and buy your stamps?" "Okay, fine." "Lots and lots of work."

24.  Emily buys a panic room because she's afraid Richard wouldn't even come to see what was going on if she was being robbed or attacked.  She calls to tell Lorelai the code.  "Are you ready?" "Pen is poised." "1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1."  (We Got Us a Pippi Virgin)

3 - I always found Glen very OTT and annoying.

23 - this is one of the few times I couldn't stand Luke. 

26 - just not super memorable 

*This is going to be super hard because these are all such great moments; and, since there's no strong theme, I'm going to have trouble finding my basis for voting. LOL
