Virtual Gilmore Girls
The story continues in season 9
Episode 9.22 "To Larry Wong: Thanks for Everything"
Lorelai was hunched over Ellie's petite form, as the baby lay on the changing
table in their upstairs bedroom. She expertly removed her wet diaper, tagging
Luke to step in as she disappeared briefly into the bathroom to discard it.
"Have you got the—" she began, as she returned to his side.
"Got it," Luke answered before she could finish her sentence, safeguarding
Ellie's tiny bottom with a dab of diaper ointment.
Rory moved next to Luke, laying out a fresh diaper, and together they suited up
the infant in her disposable armor to face another round. Lorelai smiled as she
watched the duo pat each others' backs.
Clearly worn out by all the activity, Ellie's eyes drifted shut, and Lorelai
gently scooped the baby up, nestling her in the crook of her arm. On her way
towards the crib, she stumbled over a giant Rubik's Cube — a gift from Emily
and Richard — jostling the infant and sending her into a fit of hysterics.
Without a moment of panic, Luke stepped in and assumed comfort duty,
administering his patented back rub, and cooing soft, soothing words into the
baby's ear. While usually a perfect remedy, it didn't curb her wails of
distress this time.
"Let's try the swing," Lorelai suggested, helping Luke to navigate his way
through the debris of baby toys and stuffed animals as they made it safely to
the staircase, Rory trailing behind them. "Ooh, careful," Lorelai warned, as
Luke narrowly avoided an encounter with a Baby Einstein book on the third step
down.
