From that point on, Rory and Logan dated for the vast majority of Gilmore Girls and Logan continued referring to her as Ace throughout all of it. The nickname became more than just a reference to Rory's goal. For Logan, it was an affectionate term of endearment. On the surface, Logan seems snarky and full of himself, exuding confidence and charm. Since he came from money, he was used to getting whatever he wanted and he also tended to get away with reckless behavior.
Conversely, Rory is careful and calculated and has had to work for everything she has. In short, they are complete opposites. On a weekend getaway with the prestigious members of this exclusive club, she takes many leaps of faith -- both figuratively and literally. It's during this episode that Rory starts to get to know Logan, and he pushes her outside of her comfort zone. When Rory got back together with Dean at the beginning of Season 5, Lorelai and fans alike knew it was doomed.
He was still legally married, and they were trying to rekindle their 'first love' relationship while living completely different lives. At a party her grandmother throws that was basically her own episode of The Bachelorette , Rory gets carried away and forgets of her and Dean's plans. When he shows up, he breaks things off with Rory because he doesn't fit in her 'world' anymore. Logan assures her that she'll be fine, and comforts her immediately following the breakup.
During Emily and Richard's vow renewal ceremony, Rory notices that Logan didn't actually bring a date, just a family friend. She asks why he hasn't just asked her out already, because clearly the two have feelings for one another. Logan, not being the dating type, is afraid of not living up to Rory's boyfriend expectations. He thinks she deserves better, but she knows she wants to at least give it a try. In true Gilmore fashion, she tells him outright and makes the first move.
Logan and Rory were always really good at being open and honest with each other about where things stood in their relationship - at least, after they got over the initial awkwardness. Mary was a mocking name, implying that Rory was a goody two shoes.
Rory objected multiple times to Mary and Tristan never listened. And, even if she did smile one time at the end of Tristan's run on the show -which I speculate as her just feeling sorry for him, not because she actually warmed up to the name he still kept doing it. Did he ever even acknowledge that she had a problem with the name Mary?
And, how many times did he ever call her Rory? The very first time Logan called Rory, Ace, was when he sent her a message saying he would help her get a story on the LDB. So, he wasn't mocking her, since he was helping her in her quest to get a story, and be an ace reporter. Rory never objected to the name Ace, that I can remember.
She simply pointed out one time when he used her real name, which he does. And, the one time when Rory did object to a nickname he gave her kiddo he heard it, he acknowledged it, and he never used it again. Rory repeatedly showed dislike in being called Mary, but never shows that when she is called Ace.
I think that "Ace" is sort of Logan's term of endearment for Rory. Your email address will not be published. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
