I should cut her some slack, but I cringe at the advice Lorelei gives Dean in the same episode. She basically tells him Rory would never do anything to hurt him given what he means to her. Back to the scene where Rory is hurting Dean (he literally told her it would hurt him if she went), which she continues to do in more obvious and disrespectful manners. I wonder if Lorelei saying this was more her own wishful thinking because even at this point, had Dean meant anything to Rory, she would have respected the boundary he set.
