Lorelai: So, what's the game plan here? Personally, I thought we could whack the bells really hard with a hammer.
Luke: You don't break bells with a hammer.
Lorelai: Okay, I'm out. What's your plan, Clyde?
Luke: Well, I was thinking we could just jam the turnbuckle, or wedge the main mechanism, just for fun disconnect a few of the clappers. Contrary to popular belief you don't have to break every bell. If you just damage a couple, say the tierce and the prime, you pretty much ruin the set.
Lorelai: You must have been the top of your class at hunchback school.
Luke: Well, let's just say you can wait your whole life waiting for bells to fall into disrepair. Sometimes they need a push.
Lorelai: No way! You broke the bells.
Luke: You're welcome.
