Segment # 2
Lorelai's House (Day 1 – Night)
Luke and Lorelai are sitting on the couch watching TV. Takeout from Al's is on the coffee table. Luke has his arm stretched out on the couch, while Lorelai's head is firmly situated on his shoulder.
LORELAI: (Still looking at the TV) This is nice.
LUKE: Yeah, I didn't know Al's Moroccan food would be that good.
LORELAI: (Chuckles and slightly punches Luke's side) No. (Sits up and looks at him) I meant this. You and me. Together. Relaxing. (Leans back against his shoulder) Together.
LUKE: Yes, it is. (Looks at her face)
LORELAI: (Smiles and leans in for a kiss)
LUKE: (Pulls away) You are going to make it more difficult for me to leave you tonight.
LORELAI: (Chuckles – then touches his face with both her hands and stares at his lips – then raises her eyes to look at his eyes - and smiles) Hi (She says softly)
LUKE: (Smiles back) Hi.
LORELAI: (Chuckles again then takes Luke's hands in hers and looks at how their fingers interlock) Wow.
LUKE: (Looks down at her hands slightly concerned) What?
LORELAI: (Smiles yet again) Nothing.
LUKE: OK.
LORELAI: You give up too easy!
LUKE: Well, if you don't want to tell me about that 'wow' moment, I am not going to force you to.
LORELAI: Force me to.
LUKE: OK. What was that 'wow' about?
LORELAI: You.
LUKE: You, what?
LORELAI: (Shakes her head) No, the 'wow' was about.... (slightly pokes his chest) ...you.
LUKE: (Leans in and kisses her very passionately)
They both pull away.
LORELAI: (With her eyes still closed – she speaks softly as she leans her forehead on his chin) Four perfect months.
LUKE: (Sighs – then gives Lorelai a quick peck on her forehead and stands on his feet... slightly pulling Lorelai to her feet as well).
They start walking slowly towards the front door – hand in hand.
LORELAI: (Turns to face Luke at the door – and whines a bit) Stay!
LUKE: I would, but didn't you say you had an early meeting tomorrow?
LORELAI: I lied... now, stay!
LUKE: Lorelai.
LORELAI: (Gives up) Fine! I do have an early meeting tomorrow. But we haven't been seeing each other much - late at night. (Grabs the opening of his jacket – then smiles up at him) If you know what I mean.
LUKE: What do you call last night?
LORELAI: (Grins) Oh yes... last night... let's repeat that!
LUKE: Yes, let's. But not tonight.
LORELAI: (Sighs) You are so making me do the right thing here, aren't you? (Luke nods) Fine. (Reaches up and kisses him) Hey, meet me for lunch at the Inn tomorrow.
LUKE: Oh... Actually I can't tomorrow. Got something to take care of.
LORELAI: (Let's go of his jacket) Oh, OK. That's fine. We'll hook up after?
LUKE: Yes, we will. (Gives Lorelai a quick peck on the lips and smiles) 'Night.
LORELAI: (Holds the door open and smiles back) Goodnight.
Cuts to the streets of Stars Hollow (Day 2 – Mid Morning)
On her way back to the Inn from the meeting, Lorelai spots Luke with an older lady.
Luke's arguing with her.
Cuts to Luke and Mrs. Thompson a few feet away from Mrs. T's house.
LUKE: I can't believe this!
Mrs. T: Oh dear.
LUKE: You know what? Do whatever you want with it! I don't care!
Mrs. T: Luke, I didn't mean to upset you.
Lorelai parks her jeep close by and walks over to Luke.
LUKE: (Surprised to see Lorelai there) What are you doing here?
LORELAI: Hi (Turns to Mrs. T and smiles) Hi Mrs. Thompson!
Mrs. T: Lorelai honey, finally! Please calm Luke down.
LORELAI: What's going on?
Mrs. T: He is really upset with me. I don't know what else to do...
LUKE: (Still surprised to see Lorelai) What are you doing here?
LORELAI: I was driving back to the Inn, and I saw you. Had to say my 'hello'. So, umm.. what's going on?
Mrs. T: I am moving dear. To Florida. Excellent place to retire.
LORELAI: Oh – nice, Mrs. Thompson! And, umm... how does Luke play into this?
LUKE: It's nothing...
Mrs. T: Luke's been renting my garage to store his father's boat. And William rented it for about twenty years before that. Now I can't rent it out to Luke because the new tenants are moving in next week.
LUKE: (Looks at Mrs. T) You know what? Get rid of it! I can't possibly find a place for it now. Get some people to haul it off! (He walks off in anger).
Mrs. T: Lorelai dear, please go talk to him.
LORELAI: (Touches Mrs. T's arm) I will Mrs. Thompson. You go inside and relax, I am sure we can work something out. (She runs after Luke). Luke! Hold on! High heels! Very, very... high... heels!!!
LUKE: (Stops – and turns) What?
LORELAI: What??? I should be asking you that mister!
LUKE: It's fine. I am fine... (not so convincingly).
LORELAI: (Concerned, takes his hand) Luke... honey – she is retiring and moving to Florida.
LUKE: I know.
LORELAI: We have a very simple solution here...
LUKE: No, it's better this way...
LORELAI: We could rent a storage place until we find it a permanent pl...
LUKE: (Cuts her off) No. (A bit more calmed, holds her hands up to his chest) I am fine. It's really better this way.
LORELAI: Oh... OK.
LUKE: I have to get back to the diner. See you later?
LORELAI: (Nods) Yeah. (Let's go of Luke's hands and watches him walk away – then she turns to look at Mrs. T's house).
Cuts to the Dragonfly Inn (Day 2 – Afternoon)
Lorelai is on the phone with Rory. Scenes switch between the Inn and Rory's dorm.
RORY: Whoa, that's so weird.
LORELAI: I know. That man is still somewhat of a mystery to me.
RORY: So, he just said to scrap it? His dad's boat?
LORELAI: Yeah. (Sighs) I don't know what to do.
RORY: But he seemed pretty certain about what he said?
LORELAI: I guess. I just wish I knew what's behind this.
RORY: Well, ask him.
LORELAI: No!... no, I shouldn't. I am not going to force him to explain anything he isn't ready to explain.
RORY: Wow, you are all grown up!
LORELAI: (Grins) Right back at ya! (Sighs) I just hope he doesn't regret it. You know...
RORY: Yeah (Gets distracted by Marty and Anna's bickering) Oh God! – I have to go...
LORELAI: What's going on?
RORY: Mom, next time Headmaster Charleston calls looking for me, tell him I've moved to India!
LORELAI: (Chuckles) OK, kid...
RORY: And mom?
LORELAI: Yeah?
RORY: Don't let him regret anything later. OK, bye.
LORELAI: (Smiles) Bye babe. (Stares at the cordless phone for a few seconds – then hands it to Michel) Michel, I have to go out for a while – I'll be back as soon as I can! (She grabs her purse and hurries out the door).
