In the series finale of Gilmore Girls, Rory (Alexis Bledel) has shed herself of Logan and is planning a summer post-graduation trip with Lorelai (Lauren Graham). Those plans are abruptly shelved when Rory is offered a dream job as a political reporter--an event prologued by a surprise meeting with her idol, CNN correspondent Christian Amanpour. Faced with the inevitability of life without her daughter, Lorelai tries to keep busy so she won't break down. Elsewhere, the likelihood of a heavy rain finds Luke (Scott Patterson) making extra-special preparations for Rory's outdoor graduation party--and in the process, Lorelei at long last comes to her senses regarding her relationship with Luke. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
