Synopsis

[edit]

When Rory announces that she has to pick a team sport to play at Chilton, Emily insists that Richard take Rory to the club and teach her golf. Although Rory tees off to a rocky start, she soon gets into the swing of things and has a great time walking and talking with Richard. Richard is impressed by Rory's taste in books, as are his friends at the club. Meanwhile, Lorelai feels jealous of Rory's growing relationship with her grandparents, culminating in an explosive argument between mother and daughter.

Reception

[edit]

While rewatching the series, David Sims of The A.V. Club wrote: "In these very early episodes, Lorelai and Rory’s relationship has a volatility that doesn’t really stick around." He explained that the fight between Lorelai and Rory over something minor was "a little forced and on the nose." "The show is still finding its voice, and its tone feels a touch off at times, although it’s also establishing so much of what we know and love about the Stars Hollow universe. [...] Lorelai’s stuff [at the Inn] is pleasant, but a bit of a snooze. Rory’s plot is more intriguing."[1]
