The Ins and Outs of Inns

Lorelai and Sookie start up their plans to open an inn, but get stalled when the owner of the inn refuses to sell the property. The unexpected arrival of Mia, the owner of the Independence Inn, makes Lorelai feel guilty about wanting to leave the Independence Inn. However, Mia is supportive of their plans and tells everyone that she's planning on selling the inn. Emily confronts Mia in order to meet the woman who was such an important part of both Rory and Lorelai's life. Meanwhile, someone planted a fake murder scene in front of Doose's market. Rory tells Jess that she knows he's the culprit, how he's a jerk for letting Luke take all the heat from everyone in Stars Hollow. He agrees to lighten up and be more considerate of Luke.
