  • Gilmore Girls S01E13 Concert Interruptus | Bangles, Boundaries & Gilmore Drama
    2025/12/16

    Join Chemda and Carrie as they dive into Season 1, Episode 13 of Gilmore Girls: "Concert Interruptus"! This Valentine's-adjacent episode aired on February 22nd, 2001, and features a special guest appearance by The Bangles!

    In this episode, what starts as an exciting plan to see The Bangles live in concert turns into a night full of unexpected twists. Rory invites the mean girls from Chilton (Paris, Madeline, and Louise) to join them after Lane can't go, leading to both bonding moments and teenage rebellion. Meanwhile, Lorelai grapples with feelings about Luke's ex-girlfriend Rachel when she accidentally wears her rhinestone sweatshirt.

    What We Discuss:

    • The cold open: Lorelai and Rory's closet cleanout for the town rummage sale

    • Our personal tips for decluttering (car accident test, anyone?)

    • Lane's hilariously bad lie to Mrs. Kim about going to a "play"

    • Why Lorelai inviting the mean girls was problematic

    • The Bengals concert and Paris's heartbreaking character development

    • Madeline and Louise ditching the group for random college boys

    • Lorelai's mama bear moment tracking them down

    • Paris's saddest line: "This is the best night I've ever had"

    • Luke's rhinestone sweatshirt drama (and our BIG disagreement about it!)

    • The town rummage sale and all that amazing small-town charm
