Who knew there could be so many feels in a scene at the grocery store. In the final episode of the revival, Rory finally runs into her first boyfriend Dean Forester in Doose's Market (of course). We learn that Dean is remarried with kids and seems very happy. Their conversation has multiple references to their relationship — most notably when Dean mentions that his younger sister is living in Germany with her boyfriend. Rory tells him not to worry because he's "her first love," and then trails off, embarrassed that she implied first loves don't really matter — because Dean mattered very much to her.
And just when our poor hearts had just about had enough, Rory picks up a box of corn starch, the item she stole in surprise from that very store in season one after Dean gave her her very first kiss. And Dean tells her to "pay for it this time." Oof.
