Favorite Scene Where a Character is Embarrassed 

The townies find out Luke and Lorelai are dating when Lorelai accidentally goes downstairs to the diner wearing only Luke's shirt.  "You walked into the diner like that?" "I didn't think the diner could open without you." "I had Caesar open." "Well, he did, with a floor show."  (Written in the Stars)

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)

2.  Rory sees Paris for the first time after Asher died, and makes her stop fussing around for a moment to give her a hug.  "So, how are you holding up?" "I'm fine. I'm actually relieved to be anywhere that people aren't arguing over the first-edition Faulkners. His granddaughter Sarah is the worst. If she thought the casket was worth anything, she would have stuffed it in her purse."  (Written in the Stars)

3.  Lorelai and Rory reminisce over Hug-a-World as they are cleaning out the garage.  "Hug-a-World would like to see the world." "It’s moving." "There’s something living there besides Canadians." "I hugged it, I hugged it really tight." "Yes, you did." "I have to shower!"  (Lorelai Out of Water)

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)

5.  Rory breaks down to Richard after dropping out of Yale, crying in his arms, and he loses all resolve to be stern with her.  "I’m so sorry, Grandpa! I’m so sorry about everything! I just, I don’t know what to do. I don’t...." "It’s alright. Everything will be alright."  (A House is Not a Home)

6.  Christopher surprises the girls and shows up in Stars Hollow for the first time.  Rory runs to jump into his arms.  "Dad!" "Hey!" "This is great! What are you doing here?" "I'm here to see you. And your mom, who's not saying anything about as loud as a person can."  (That Damn Donna Reed)

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)

5 because Rory is irritating me and Richard falls for it.

8 because Rory needs to own her crap instead of wallowing in victimhood after mistreating Dean for months

28 because TJ and Liz

5 - Remember when we were still willing to give Rory the benefit of the doubt, because we hadn't seen yet just how much of an entitled brat she could be?  Good times.

8 - Ha!  See above comment.

2 - I really like the later scene where Rory comes in and Paris is smoking Asher's pipe ("I just wanted to smell like him again") much better, so I don't mind axing this one.

24 - The meh-est of mehs.

28 - I actually really like this one but I'm not going to make an argument for it, heh.

15 - Ugh. Such a stupid scene.

29 - Paris having a life coach amuses me. Terrence, the character, however - super annoying.

3.  Lorelai and Rory reminisce over Hug-a-World as they are cleaning out the garage.  "Hug-a-World would like to see the world." "It’s moving." "There’s something living there besides Canadians." "I hugged it, I hugged it really tight." "Yes, you did." "I have to shower!"  (Lorelai Out of Water)

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)

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)

20.  Sookie realizes why she's so cranky about Norman Mailer coming to the Inn only to drink iced tea.  "Norman Mailer!  I'm pregnant!"  "Congratulations."  (NMIP)

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)

22.  Luke gets ready to leave after helping Liz and TJ at the Renn Faire for weeks.  "Take care, sis." "I love you, big brother."  (A Messenger, Nothing More)

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)

26.  Luke comforts Lorelai as she sadly reminisces about the plans she and Rory had to celebrate her 21st birthday.  "We were gonna go to Atlantic City. We were gonna sit at a blackjack table at 11:59, we were gonna order martinis, and we were gonna be playing 21 when she turned twenty-one.  And then hopefully we'd win, and we'd take our winnings and we'd buy 21 things. And then there was a thing about 21 guys that wouldn't really be appropriate anymore since the engagement, but it was a good plan.  She probably doesn't even remember the plan." "She remembers the plan." "It wasn't like we talked about it every day. It was just something we thought of." "She remembers the plan."  (21 is the Loneliest Number)

30.  Liz and TJ surprise Luke with the news that they're getting married.  "Oh, wait till you see this wedding. Oh, my G-d. It's unbelievable. I'm wearing a white dress..." "That is unbelievable." "Oh, stop it. It's about a zillion years old with flowing sleeves. I'm like Vanessa Redgrave in Camelot."   (Luke Can See Her Face)

I guess I completely forgot to update Tuesday morning.  Sorry guys.  I'll go ahead and eliminate all three tied.

3 - Cute scene, not really a "hugging" scene though.

20 - Ha! I can't believe this one even made it this far. I forgot it was even in the game.

30 - I love Luke/Liz's relationship, I can't help it.

Voting against two.
