A/N: This is going to be quite a long scene. I am doing the 30-day challenge and should have about a 15,000 word story by now and I'm pulling in at 2,000+. I have been gone for awhile, applying and hoping for a job. Well, guess what? I got the job :) So now that I have my job, as of a week from today, I'll have even LESS time to do all this. I hope you enjoy these, my instagram and twitter is @gilmoregirlsxo if you want to follow/ be aware of any updates:) Okay, let's get back to it xx, Kris <3

The camera opens on a shot of Rory, packing up her bags. She is in a hotel in Sacramento, and about to leave to head to the conference in San Francisco.

June 20th, 2008

Rory's cell phone rings.

RORY: (answering) Hello?

LORELAI: Hi, sweets.

RORY: Morning, Mom. How are you?

LORELAI: I'm doing just dandy, how are you?

RORY: You know what day it is.

LORELAI: Tuesday?

RORY: The day I'm going to..

LORELAI: Disneyland??

RORY: No.

LORELAI: Puppy world.

RORY: You're really gonna make me say it?

LORELAI: I'm holding my breath.

RORY: San Francisco.

LORELAI: There it is! 

RORY: I'm excited. I've traipsed over Europe, now it's time to conquer the states.

LORELAI: The land of the free.

RORY: The home of the brave.

LORELAI: Hey, do you wanna be really brave and call your ex-boyfriend to tell him you're in town?

RORY: No, I don't.

LORELAI: But, you might bump into him. It might be good to let him know you'll be around.

RORY: Mom, do you know how big the city of San Francisco is?

LORELAI: Is it bigger than a bread box?

RORY: It's huge, mom. With an area of 231.9 square miles.

LORELAI: You just never know, hon.

RORY: Okay, well my cab is here, I have to go.

LORELAI: Make sure to get some of the city sights in. See Alcatraz if you can.

RORY: Okay, I will.

LORELAI: Take pictures going over the bridge!
RORY: You do know, driving into San Francisco, you go over the Bay Bridge, not the Golden Gate, right?

LORELAI: Tomato, ToMAto.

RORY: Right.

LORELAI: Enjoy Frisco. 

RORY: (shaking head) Talk later, love you. (hangs up)

Rory takes her bags and exits the hotel room. The camera changes to a shot of Lorelai, standing in her room, looking at her wedding dress.

There is a knock at the front door.

LUKE: Lorelai?

LORELAI: Luke!

Luke walks in.

LORELAI: Luke, are you coming upstairs?

LUKE: Yes, I am.
