“I can’t imagine anyone seeing you as a dissapointment”
-Luke Danes, to Lorelai
Where you lead
I will follow
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, if you need me to be with you
I will follow
Where you lead
If you’re out on the road
Feelin’ lonely and so cold
All you have to do is call my name
And I’ll be there
On the next train
Let me plant this little thought in your head - you do or say anything to upset Jess and make it harder for me to keep him on the right path, I’m gonna put your head through a wall. Any wall, you can pick the wall, but it’s gonna be a wall, okay?

Back in the Saddle Again (02x15)
LORELAI: You have a new special.
LUKE: I sure do.
LORELAI: Nice. What is the special omelet?
LUKE: You won’t like it.
LORELAI: How do you know?
LUKE: Because you’ve been eating here for years and I know what you like, and you won’t like it.
LORELAI: Can I at least hear what it is?
LUKE: Fine. It’s three eggs with bits of bacon.
LORELAI: I like bacon.
LUKE: Cubed tomatoes.
LORELAI: Sounds good.
LUKE: Swiss cheese and a dash of oregano.
LORELAI: A dash, he says.
LUKE: I’ve got other customers here.
LORELAI: I’m gonna go with the special omelet.
LUKE: Okay.
LORELAI: With a side of bacon.
LUKE: There’s bacon in the omelet.
LORELAI: Oh, then skip the bacon.
LUKE: The side of bacon?
LORELAI: The bacon in the omelet.
LUKE: Hold the bacon.
LORELAI: Can I get Jack cheese?
LUKE: On the side?
LORELAI: Instead of Swiss, Swiss is so stringy.
LUKE: Fine, Jack cheese.
LORELAI: Also, I think I’m allergic to oregano so hold that, too, and some coffee.
LUKE: So, just the eggs, tomatoes, and Jack cheese.
LORELAI: Not too many tomatoes.
LUKE: Light on the tomatoes.
LORELAI: Very light, just a teeny-tiny amount, practically none.
LUKE: I’m skipping the tomatoes. It’s an omelet with Jack cheese.
LORELAI: Perfect.
LUKE: You did this on purpose.
And we present Luke, the geek (It Should've Been Lorelai 02x14)
LORELAI: This whole morning has been a little Twilight Zone-y.
LUKE: Or Outer Limits-y.
LORELAI: What?
LUKE: Great show, just as eerie, same era, but no one ever references it.
LORELAI: Oh, I'm sorry, I don't speak geek.
A whole new pathetic (A-Tisket, A-Tasket 02x13)
LORELAI: I cannot buy my own basket.
LUKE: Why not?
LORELAI: Because that is pathetic.
LUKE: And chasing me around my diner begging me to buy your basket?
LORELAI: Also pathetic. But that is a pathetic I can live with, where that pathetic is a truly pathetic pathetic, and only you can save me from the double pathetic! Please!
Sadie, Sadie 02x01
Lorelai: Luke!
Luke: You do know his last name, don't you?
Lorelai: I want my popsicle back...
LORELAI: What did you do?
LUKE: You wanted something festive.
LORELAI: You made me a Santa burger.
Luke: It’s no big deal.
Lorelai: He has a hat and everything.
Luke: Yeah, I just cut a piece of wonder bread, you know, poured a little ketchup, piped on a little cream cheese.
Lorelai: No one has ever made me something quite this disgusting before. I thank you.
Luke: You’re welcome.
