Lorelai feels guilty for lying to Rory when her daughter asks about Luke's reaction to the lunch date with Christopher... Luke helps T.J. with some plumbing problems at the new house... Emily appears to have a wonderful time on her date, but bursts into tears when she looks around her empty home at the end of the date...
