Luke Quote #391

Quote from Luke in It's Just Like Riding a Bike

Lorelai: What's going on?
Luke: Okay, here's the deal. I borrowed Kirk's computer, and Zach got me on this craigslist thing, and I found a 1999 Jeep Wrangler for sale. The guy actually doesn't live too far from here, so I went to see it. It looks like it's in pretty good shape. So I ran the VIN number. It's got a clean history, no accidents, no failed emissions. And the guy said he kept it up pretty good, and there's nothing really wrong with it. So I took it for a test drive, and it drove fine. So if you want to keep your old car, for whatever crazy feeling it gives you, okay? Then buy this guy's car, send it to Gypsy. She'll take the engine out, put it in the old car, which makes absolutely no sense because you'd basically be paying the same amount of money to fix your old car as you would be paying to get into a new one.
Lorelai: But I'd still have my car.
Luke: Yeah, Gypsy said it'll take about two weeks to finish. Here's the number of the guy, Larry. That's his name. I already negotiated him down 1,500 bucks. Tell him you're Lorelai, Luke's friend. He'll know.
Lorelai: Thanks, I will.
Luke: It's still a completely ridiculous idea.
Lorelai: I know.

Quote from Paris

Paris: So, I don't know where I'll be, but I think I know what I'll be.

Rory: I'm guessing you didn't put that on your applications.
