[Emily, Rory, and Lorelai are in the poolhouse - Richard's home while he and Emily's are separated]
Oh, my God. Will you look at this? [Shocked, she pulls out a vest dressed in colorful sequins]
Bright.
[dryly] And tasteful.
It's a vest.
Grandpa has lots of vests.
It's got glitter. It's a glitter vest.
So?
So? Where would your father wear a vest like this? Certainly nowhere he ever would've taken me.
Grandma, it's just a vest.
Yeah, Mom. There's tons of places he would wear that.
Name one.
Okay, I'm at a loss.
This is insane.
Mom, this is the place where unwanted things came to repose. Maybe it's a vest of his from the old days.
Our days never included Richard dressing up like that gay fellow whose tiger tried to eat him. I have definitely, positively never seen this vest. This is a party vest.
Okay, just put it back, Mom, and let's go.
[holds out the festive garment] You put it back.
You know, we've moved a lot of stuff around here tonight. We've got to cover our tracks.
Where did you find it?
Squished in the middle, as if he was hiding it from me.
[mutters as she returns the vest to the closet] Can you blame him? It's hideous.
How dare he have a vest like that.
