this time when Dean was actually happy with Rory hits different
lol I love Dean’s tips to learning how to understand the Gilmore girls!
i hate how they made out lorelai and rory to be these people that are complete enigmas 😭 the whole "not like other girls" thing gave me an aneurysm
They’re so basic and boring - esp Rory. But lorelai’s more annoying
No they are not. If they didn't do anything wrong and was so perfect all the time the show would be boring. you sound boring and annoying@@StewNWT
And they don't actually eat anything. They talk about food and buy food, but they only ever take one bite of anything. 😂
i can't believe lorelai and max love each other
Dean was so good to the Lorelais
I get where max is coming from hes not trying to be rorys step parent but wants to be sure shes safe and on the right path as for lorelai I can see why they didnt work out sure shes a tiny bit childish but thats what we love about shes very responsible when the time comes
There' s these things called periods at the end of a sentence. Use them next time you write something.
@@xebatansis If you are going to go around correcting people’s grammar, I’d start with your own. It should be “There are these things called periods…” as the noun here is plural.
Max can't automatically have a role in Rory life just because him and Lorelai is engaged.
That is absolutely true, very well said.
Baring in mind that Max was also Rory's teacher, his trying to figure out his role makes sense. It's a wierd sort of work life balance thing and I don't blame him for asking the question.
I think that Max was trying to be a "father figure" to show he actually cares about Rory and isn't just marrying Lorelei. For example, when Rory is around Dean/Logan/even Jess, Luke is allowed to complain and act like a jerk because that's what dads do. Lorelei doesn't even get offended when Luke says he will tie Rory up and force her back into Yale. Luke still talked to Rory even when Lorelei and Rory were fighting. So I think Max wanted this kind of role or at least communication with Lorelei about Rory. But she shut him down and made him feel irrelevant.
I don't even think he wanted to be a father figure, he just wanted to know what the rules are. Which makes perfect sense, as an adult in the house. And good point about Luke being allowed to do all those things, but Max is only good for making garlic bread. Lorelai really showed her true feelings about Max in this scene.
@@lisahuber9329 🎯🎯🎯 if Lorelei was a remotely normal human being she would've thought about this and had a talk with Max about it. But she never pictured their future together as a FAMILY. I can only imagine if they actually got married, had kids, and had a blended family. I'm really glad that Lorelei grew up super protective of Rory because there are strange people out there, but this interaction shows she didn't trust max and she didn't believe he had anything to offer her. I also think max should've been more understanding since Lorelei hasn't dated in years and is confused overall. Lorelei got her karma back with April😂😂
I'm sorry I don't agree
@@lisahuber9329but they never talked about it. he just said what his role was cause Rory didn't come inside when he said so. He for mad about that.
@lauriecarson6483 he was literally talking to her about it in that scene and he wasn't mad about Rory not coming in, he didn't even tell her to. He was asking all the right questions about what the rules are and what his place is in enforcing them because he is a responsible adult
I think people are exaggerating in the comments about blaming Max for “waltzing in” and disturbing an “already existing dynamic”. I think this scene represents many cases of parents that start a new relationship and the new partner is being introduced to the family and the children. It's always tricky to find a balance because as the stepparent you do want to care for the child and not be just the parents' lover, but at the same time you are aware that the kid already has parents that impose the rules etc. There is no-one to blame here. I think in this case it is especially tricky because 1) Max has no children of his own, so he never had to act as a parent before and 2) he is Rory's teacher after all, and to separate his work from his personal life must be very difficult. Gilmore Girls is being too analysed these days, where there always has to be a bad and a good cop. It's not all black and white, people.
I am sorry, but for Max to think he comes into an already existing family and starts being a father and imposing his own rules on a 16 years old... it's more than odd. His role was to be Lorelei's husband, not Rory's father! And him creating absurd situations and expecting that he would have a role in deciding what was best for Rory... what is wrong with him? He wanted to jump some steps and act like a father without doing the hard work. Make your own child and parent it, don't parent someone else's grown up "child"! It would be a different story if Rory was still a child and they would have to share many years together, but Rory was to be home for how long at that point? 2-3 years?
And no, Lorelei's parenting was not the best (and we could see the consequences in later seasons), but it was her child, not his!
Yes I have an issue with partners feeling like the have focus being a parent to their partners kids. I didn’t like that porch scene and then when him being so offended that Lorelei express wanting to take the lead in issues with Rory. OF COURSE SHE WOULD! She raised Rory by herself for 16 years before he was even a thought
@@lstarsabb And as we saw, she didnt do that good of a job
@@citydweller99Rory turned out fine Just because she was the perfect role model ya'll wanted her to be doesn't mean she terrible. She went back to her home town she became an author and became a single mother. It's not the end of the world.
In fairness to Max, he was her English teacher among other students, making him already a kind of authority figure but now with new conditions. Furthermore, given his profession, it's not like he doesn't understand the risks and complexities regarding teenagers to some extent.
I agree with this. As a teacher you get to see all the many ways children get in trouble. And all the many ways being in a relationship can lead you to bad things. He had his heart in the right place.
Max was just trying to understand how the shift in type of authority figure works.
I really do believe his heart was in the right place.
Yeah a teacher that's all not a person who can tell her what to in her own house. They barely got engaged and he already telling her what to do. no sorry.
I don't. Just because he is her teacher doesn't mean he can tell Rory what to in her own house. so what if they are in the porch thru are not doing anything wrong. How would you feel if your teacher did that to you. @@M.A.Y.Y
@lauriecarson6483 What I am trying to say is that once he leaves school and heads home, the teacher part no longer takes precedence but rather "step father" / "father figure"
And Max was simply trying to understand his bounds so he would not.come.home and be English teacher Max Medina telling Rory what to do but rather step father understanding his boundaries and what he should or shouldn't do / say given that Lorelai is the main parent who parents Rory.
@@M.A.Y.Y Exactly. Lorelai comes off so flippant in this scene about the situation. Not that I was rooting for them as a couple but he’s asking some relevant questions.
I’m not gonna lie but I’m on Max’s side here. He and Rory had a nice relationship. He wanted to be her stepfather, and even Rory felt apologetic when he and Lorelai broke up. Rory needed a father figure, and I understand Max wanting to have a role in her life to be there for her. As much as I love Lorelai and I get her side too because she’s been the only stable parent in Rory’s life, I think that she was wrong for this. She already has a questionable parenting technique, just like her parents did, which is why we were led to believe that the Gilmores are perfect, when in reality, they have their faults and turned out the way that they are. I do obviously think that she belongs with Luke because it’s inevitable with those two, and Luke is the best father figure Rory has ever had. I just feel for Max in this episode because he really wants to try and make things work and asked the right questions if they were to further establish their relationship and get married. He was a good guy, but he deserved better than Lorelai, and Lorelai just wasn’t ready because he was her FIRST REAL relationship on the show (aside from Christopher). I’m glad she and Luke are endgame because they make the most sense.
That is overstepping so many boundaries for a child. Forcing a child to obey someone they don’t view as their parent yet can be very damaging. Mothers or fathers that do that just for the ‘sake’ of their relationship usually end up messing their relationship with their child.
Rory has had Luke for 16 years. Max is trying to force authority where it's not needed. Imagine him trying to regulate the time Rory spends with Dean? Overstepping and the effort is doomed to fail. He can backup Lorelei but the lead position is always going to be hers.
Thru had a nice relationship cause they are student and teacher only. They really sat down and talked about things or hung out
i think that was the moment when Lorelai started to realize that Max is wrong for her. He waltzed into a family with established dynamic and acted like he has a right to dictate to Lorelai how to parent her own daughter. I think it was the same mistake Christopher did - he too tried to rewrite Rory and Lorelai's dynamic by changing family traditions and rules. Luke was the only one who understood and respected this, so he won :)
Yeah... Luke enabled their dysfunction
@@citydweller99 Luke was smart enough to understand that it's not his business and not his place to say something. Would YOU like it if someone who you know only for few months started to teach you how to live?
@@citydweller99you’re right and you should say it
Pushing the annoying "not-like-other-girls" narrative about two average women - one of whom is the blandest character on Earth: Rory -, a mom&daughter with an upper middle class family background yet trying to make the audience find it plausible that they "struggle" is beyond ridiculous.
LMAO
Ok is anyone noticing 2:39 , 2:54 …does anyone noticed the change in wardrobe lol
This is weird, a teacher and a student going out with a mother and daughter.
Everyone hates Rory, but hot take she got it from Miss Double L herself. Just leading these guys astray, gaslighting them ans wasting their time. Smh.
This was peak millennial cringe 😂 men simping and girls being totally random but totally girly but totally not like the other girls
that is what I think
