1.2-The Lorelai's First Day at Chilton

[Mrs. Huntzberger]

BRAVE NEW WORLD - Rory's (Alexis Bledel) first day at Chilton Prep begins badly when Lorelai (Lauren Graham) oversleeps and accompanies her daughter into the intimidating school wearing a t-shirt, cut-off jeans and cowboy boots, an outfit which draws disapproving stares from the other mothers and from her own mother Emily (Kelly Bishop). While overwhelmed by the heavy workload and tough competitive atmosphere, Rory immediately makes an enemy of the school top student, Paris (guest star Lisa Weil), who is threatened by Rory's intelligence. Meanwhile, Lorelai's work day is further interrupted by a call from her neighbors, Babette (Sally Struthers, "All in the Family") and Morey (Ted Rooney), warning her that workmen are in her house installing a new computer line, leading to yet another fight between Lorelai and Emily about who will pay for what in Rory's life. Arlene Sanford directed the episode written by Amy Sherman-Palladino.
