input: TEXT: OPEN IN LORELAI'S FRONT YARD [An airport shuttle van drops Lorelai and Rory off in front of their house, then pulls away] LORELAI: Agh! RORY: And we're home. LORELAI: How long does a freakin' van ride take? RORY: Not that long! LORELAI: Everybody in the world's life flashed before my eyes. That's how much time I had. I thought we were gonna die on that van. RORY: It seemed a good possibility. LORELAI: Ugh, that van ride felt longer than our train ride from Paris to Prague, and we had that group of French boys singing Sk8er Boi and smelling like a soccer field sitting all around us. [Babette comes out of her house and rushes over to them] BABETTE: Oh my God, you're back! Morey, they're back! Are you hurt? Are you bleeding? LORELAI: Oh, we're fine. BABETTE: You're fine? They're fine! Morey! MOREY: [opens his front door] Yeah? BABETTE: They're fine! MOREY: Okay. [goes back inside] BABETTE: What the hell happened to you two? According to the itinerary that Rory gave me, you were supposed to be home on Saturday. LORELAI: The itinerary that Rory gave you? BABETTE: So when you girls didn't show up, we panicked! Morey? MOREY: [opens front door] Yeah? BABETTE: Didn't we panic? MOREY: Yeah. [goes inside] LORELAI: Hey, Morey, you ever thought about just staying out here at times like these? BABETTE: By Sunday night, I was a complete basketcase. I thought you'd been kidnapped by some crazy Sandinistas or something. LORELAI: 'Cause the Sandinista movement is so popular in France. BABETTE: So, finally, I just started calling consulates. RORY: Consulates
