Contemplation Location	comment	Often in fiction, characters have a habit of using particular spaces for the purpose of contemplation. This space can take any form, be it a rock, a chair, a tree stump, really any designated area used for thinking or meditation. This can overlap with Bad Mood Retreat if the contemplation area is in use for the purpose of overcoming negative emotions. Compare Putting On My Thinking Cap, when a character needs a specific item to think better. Also see Happy Place.

Contemplation Location / int_1e703d1f	comment	On Gilmore Girls, Jess can be found at a small bridge over a pond near Stars Hollow high school when he's upset or needs to think. Hilariously, he chooses this spot after Luke pushes him off of it in annoyance for his surly attitude. Later, it becomes important for Rory, as well, since Jess takes her on a picnic there and she retreats to it when she needs to think about her feelings for him after a humiliating public break-up with her current boyfriend.

He spends Episode 742, "Something Inspiring", adding an extension to the room which is a lot less cumbersome and actually more inspiring.
