Sookie (
Melissa McCarthy), scatterbrained chef at Independence Inn, is down in the dumps because her famous risotto was given only a lukewarm review in the local newspaper. In a similar vein, overachiever Rory (
Alexis Bledel) receives her first-ever D from her new English teacher Max Medina (
Scott Cohen). While Sookie will have to resolve her problems herself, Rory can depend upon her mother Lorelai (
Lauren Graham) to help her cram for an important exam -- or at least, that's what she thinks until a series of temper tantrums, sparked by an injured deer (!), threaten to end Rory's prep-school career before it even begins. ~ All Movie Guide
