Special thanks you to scubaluver who pointed out a bad grammatical
mistake in the first chapter (I can't spell sometimes. I make no lie of
this). "Leeches" would have made a pretty interesting storyline. And
thanks to KinoFille who started talking about this topic first at TwoP.
As for this chapter, it's mostly filler. I'll make a longer and more
productive chapter soon.

Chapter Two
"We could do the 'Jive talkers' bit from 'Airplane'," Rory mentioned as she and Lorelai walked over to Luke's for breakfast.
"Or that scene from 'The Pirate' when Judy Garland throws everything in the room at Gene Kelly. We can buy a whole bunch of lamps and picture frames and start throwing them at each other," Lorelai said enthusiastically.
"I don't think that will work. Plus, you might hurt me and I would be forced to call one of those child protection services on you, mommy dearest."
"Oh! 'Mommy Dearest' is a thought."
"We are not doing a scene from 'Mommy Dearest'."
"You're no fun."
They were still talking about movie scenes when they entered Luke's.
"Sunset Blvd," Rory said.
"What scene?" asked Lorelai.
"The scene were Norma and Joe are watching one of her old movies and she does that line 'we didn't need words. We had faces."
"I would be great doing that scene."
"I wanted to be Norma"
"Honey, you were made for the role of Joe."
"In that case, I'm taking back the suggestion."
"What'll you have?" asked Luke as he appeared at their table.
"We'll hello to you too," responded Lorelai.
"Hi, what'll you have," Luke asked grumpily.
"Okay, I guess I'll have pancakes and bacon with a side of twenty cups of coffee," said Lorelai.
"And I'll have French toast with sausage with a side of fifteen cups of coffee."
"One day you'll be able to down 'em like me," Lorelai said sympathetically to her.
"I just wish it would happen sooner rather than later."
"Right. I just go and get started on your food," Luke said rolling his eyes and heading into the back.
"Thanks Luke," Rory called out as he walked away.
"Hey, hon. I'll be right back. I just need to talk to Luke about something," Lorelai said as she got out of her seat.
"Okay, just don't make out over my food. I want to enjoy my breakfast."
At that Lorelai rolled her eyes and walked into the back room of the diner. Luke was there pulling something off the shelve when Lorelai appeared.
"Hey, mister. This is a stick up. I want all your money and I want you to get it for me naked." Lorelai said with her hand covering her month to give it that mumbled sound."
"So do you want me to get the money while I'm naked or would you rather me get the money first and then get naked?" he asked her.
"Hmm, either way you'll be naked at some point, so whatever's more comfortable for you," she told him as she went to give him a kiss. "You okay?" she asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine, "he said. "I'm just getting irritated by all the talent show talk that's going on. Taylor was bugging me to put up signs and he knows I won't do it, but for some reason he is relentless in asking me anyways. Then Patty came in and started asking me to put up signs and Kirk wanted me to put up some sign about him doing a 'feat never seen before in Stars Hollow' whatever that means and I'm just tired of it."
"Aw, you poor thing. Well just think of it this way. At least they aren't asking you do participate.
"Only if they have a death wish."
"You're so sexy when you threaten the lives of innocent towns people."
"Thanks." They looked at each other and he pulled her in and gave her a long kiss. They pulled apart breathlessly.
"So, yeah. I'm uhhh...going to go back to Rory.
"Okay. I'll be out soon."
"Okay." She smiled at him and went back and sat down.
"So," Rory asked, "what'cha talk about?"
"Oh, you know...stuff," Lorelai said coyly.
"Like?"
"Well, Luke liked my idea of reenacting the mountaintop sword fight scene from 'The Princess Bride'. He thinks you would make a great Inigo Montoya."
"He did not."
"Yeah, well you can't blame me for trying."
"Aha, 'All About Eve'."
"Okay, but you're Eve."
"Stop making me characters. I wanted to be Margo."
"Honey, I am Margo Channing. You are so Eve."
"No way. Okay, why don't we pick a movie where the characters are equally eccentric. Or at least where I can play someone that you don't want to play."
"Fine." They were silent for a moment. "So," went Lorelai, "any ideas?"
"No," said Rory, looking down at the table lost in thought.
This was going to be harder than they thought.
