Throughout the series, it was often said that Rory had a strong need to make lists and organise her thoughts. In this case, her list is an obvious coping tool to get some structure in her life and handle her anxiety about breaking up with Dean.
What we know was on the list:
- Garden hose
- Three garden weasels (remember Rory’s system for buying three highlighters at once?)
- Soap dish for the kitchen sink
- Brown extension cord
- Plug in air-freshener for Rory’s bedroom
- Food shopping (unless the pizza was their reward that Rory promised for doing all their chores)
- Take recyclables to the recycling centre
