[Rory's bedroom - Rory wakes up and sees Lorelai sitting in a chair staring at her]
How long have you been sitting there?
Not long. An hour. . .and a half.
Why?
Because.
'Cause why?
Because today is the last first day of high school you’re ever gonna have.
You’re insane.
I’m not insane, I’m just sentimental, and you’re grown.
I’m not grown.
Yes, you are, you’re all grown up and soon you’ll be going off into the world.
Not yet.
But soon. And after you spread those wings and fly away, I won’t have the opportunity to give you this.
[Lorelai hands her a piece of paper]
What is it?
It’s your bill.
My what?
Yeah. I’ve been crunching the numbers, you know, adding up what you’ve cost me over the years – raising you, clothing you, feeding you, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
Mmhmm.
Yes, I’ve itemized everything here by years and income ratio. I thought you could factor it into your student loan.
Oh boy.
One thing that’s painfully obvious here – you’ve used an extraordinary number of diapers.
I’m gonna go take a shower.
Really, it’s cost a fortune. What were you using all those diapers for?
I was building my ‘make Mommy go away’ castle.
