Of all the things in the trailer, the weirdest (yes, even stranger than a pig running around Stars Hollow, because, well, Stars Hollow...) was the sight of Kirk at dinner with the Gilmores.

If this was Kirk at Lorelai's house, it'd be somewhat understandable, but Emily's? I'm as baffled as she is.

Kirk is one of the best Stars Hollow residents, a guy who manages to be really irritating but also well-meaning (if an idiot), and brings a lot of humour to the show. As someone who has had no less than 49 jobs (from the time of the series ending, so probably double that), what is he doing now? Is he somehow still together with Lulu?
