I completely get your point , however I think in terms of the fight in the diner when Luke is talking about keeping family separate I think he ' s talking about April , as Lorelai is clearly involved with Liz TJ , so Jess would be a given ? It was nice that they were friendly in Fall . The only reason why I think she said , Oh , of course . JESS . was maybe because she likes Jess as a person now but still doesn ' t want him with her daughter and doesn ' t like him influencing her ? I don ' t know , just a theory . I think Jess needed more on screen time , especially exploring his dynamic with Luke . One of my only critiques of the revival to be honest . <| sep |> Yeah or they thought it would be funny to shock people with lewd images when they are expecting a family friendly show
