<p><strong>Welcome back to Stars Hollow! In this episode of Gilmore Friends, Chemda (the 20-millionth-time watcher) and Carrie (the Gilmore "pure" first-timer) dive into the iconic Season 2, Episode 13: "A Tisket, A Tasket."</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>The town is buzzing with the annual basket auction, but the "tradition" isn't sitting well with everyone. We break down the high-stakes bidding war between Dean and Jess for Rory's basket, and why $90 felt like a fortune in 2002. Plus, we discuss Sookie and Jackson’s major relationship milestone (despite the "green condom hat"), Lane’s devastating phone call with Henry, and Lorelai’s attempt to stay "the cool mom" while Emily Gilmore lurks in the wings.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Don't forget to subscribe and let us know in the comments: Are you Team "Buck Tradition" or do you love the Stars Hollow quirks?</strong></p><p>💖 Want to Support the Show? </p><p> </p><p>Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GilmoreFriends </p><p>Merch Store: https://gilmorefriends.com/store </p><p> </p><p><strong>Timestamps:</strong></p><p><strong>00:00</strong> Intro: The 20-Millionth Time vs. The First Time</p><p><strong>00:56</strong> Alternative Titles & "Basket Case"</p><p><strong>03:06</strong> The Famous Basket Auction Breakdown</p><p><strong>04:41</strong> High School Jealousy & Trusting Your Partner</p><p><strong>06:08</strong> The Weird Voiceover Intro & Town Signs</p><p><strong>07:10</strong> The Uncomfortable Reality of "Human Auctions"</p><p><strong>10:09</strong> "Buck Tradition": Is Stars Hollow Sexist?</p><p><strong>11:56</strong> Miss Patty’s Wallet Photo & Catfishing Fears</p><p><strong>14:08</strong> Jess vs. Dean: The Grocery Store Showdown</p><p><strong>16:31</strong> Red Flag Alert: Is Jess Only Nice to Rory?</p><p><strong>19:06</strong> 90s Nerd-dom and Ghostbusters Resumes</p><p><strong>20:15</strong> Jackson’s Tiptoeing & Sookie’s "Naivety"</p><p><strong>21:56</strong> Heartbreak for Lane: The Broken Payphone</p><p><strong>26:14</strong> Soy Tacos & The Pre-Whole Foods World</p><p><strong>28:46</strong> Lorelai’s Closet Story & The Tree Accident</p><p><strong>30:45</strong> The $90 Prank: Jess Bids on Rory</p><p><strong>33:56</strong> Basket Logistics: Why Couldn't Dean Just Join?</p><p><strong>36:05</strong> Kirk’s Backstory & The Edible Pretzel Basket</p><p><strong>38:44</strong> Lorelai Interrupts Luke’s Workday</p><p><strong>41:10</strong> Pop Tarts & Slim Jims: Luke Knows Her Order</p><p><strong>43:28</strong> Henry Chooses Another Prom Date</p><p><strong>48:40</strong> The "Switcheroo" Proposal & Green Hats</p><p><strong>51:56</strong> "This is Nice": Luke and Lorelai’s Picnic</p><p><strong>56:11</strong> Trusting Your Kid vs. Predator Warnings</p><p><strong>1:01:41</strong> Emily Gilmore Agrees: The Flop House Smell</p><p><strong>1:11:03</strong> Trivia: Bob’s Burgers & Scott Patterson’s Audition</p><p><strong>1:15:02</strong> Paul Newman & The 1958 Movie Connection</p><p><strong>1:19:32</strong> Gendered Bathrooms & The Gutter in Brooklyn</p><p><strong>1:23:00</strong> Predictions: Car Drama & Lane’s Prom</p><p><br></p><p>Hit Subscribe so you don’t miss our weekly drops! </p><p>💬 Join the Gilmore Friends Community </p><p> </p><p>Instagram: @GilmoreFriendsPodcast </p><p>Twitter/X: @GilmoreFriends </p><p>TikTok: @GilmoreFriends </p><p>Website: https://Gilmorefriends.com </p><p> </p><p>#GilmoreGirls #GilmoreFriends #TVPodcast </p><p><br></p>
