IAAI Town Meeting: Unrealistic Goal for Rory (Season 4 E3 The Hobbit, The Sofa, and Digger Styles)

About this episode

Suzanne and Tara discuss red flags in Lorelai and Sookie's behavior while exploring Rory's college life and the concept of shopping for classes.

Suzanne and Tara are seeing major red flags with Lorelai and Sookie, who would cater a kids birthday party? We also need your input: is “shopping for classes” during the first week of college a real thing, or just something TV made up? Plus, a new theory about Rory’s college life. Did creator Amy Sherman-Palladino really have the full roadmap of her Yale journey? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
