"That guy is nuts!" Chris yelled as he stood gazing through the disaster of ran over corn stalks. "He's absolutely nuts."
"Well, he's not getting away." Richard huffed. "Get back in the car, Christopher."
"Richard, come on, you're not going to take your BMW through a corn field?" Chris asked in shock.
"Of course not." replied Richard. "He'll have to cut onto the main road sooner or later." Richard paused. "He probably already has."
Chris and Richard jumped back into the car and drove off down the highway.
Meanwhile, Lorelai was still in awe over Luke's spectacular performance. "That was so incredible." She laughed. "I mean really, I can't believe you did that."
Luke beamed with pride. "Ah, wasn't so great."
"Are you kidding? It was completely and totally awesome. You deserve a medal. No, not a medal, a statue..."
Luke laughed. "I'd settle for a kiss." Lorelai quickly scooted over and kissed Luke on the cheek. "Thank you." Luke's eyes brightened.
"Welcome." Lorelai bit her lip for a minute, then slid her hand onto Luke's arm. "So, tonight, can we stay in a hotel?"
Luke sighed. "Lorelai..."
"Please... I could really use a shower." she replied.
Realizing he himself was in a need a of good shower as well, Luke rolled his eyes. "Alright." Lorelai giggled and jumped with happiness. "But this is the only time. We can't keep stopping, especially with your Dad hot on our trail."
"Deal." Lorelai replied, satisfied.
After spotting a hotel, Luke pulled off of the main highway and behind the building. "Your dad may not suspect us resting at a hotel." Luke said as he hid the truck behind a garbage bin. "This may actually throw him off track."
"Clever." Lorelai remarked as she opened the door and stepped out. "Man, it's really going to feel good to sleep in a bed."
"And take a shower." Luke added.
"And watch some tv." Lore continued.
"And have a private bathroom." Luke remarked, remembering the incident from earlier.
Once inside the hotel lobby, Luke walked up the main desk. "Hi." Luke smiled. "We'd like a hotel room for the night."
"Name please?" The lady replied.
"Luke Danes."
"And the young lady?"
"Lorelai Gilmore." Lorelai answered.
The desk clerk typed the names into a computer. "May I see your driver's license please."
Luke handed the lady his license. "And your's Ms. Gilmore?"
"Oh, I don't have a license." Lorelai replied.
"Well, I'll need some type of identification."
"Okay..." Lorelai started to dig through her purse. "I must have something..." She mumbled. "Aha.. My social security card." Lorelai smiled as she handed the lady the card.
"Alright, you'll be staying in room 321." The clerk replied. "You may order room service if you'd like, the number will be on the door, and also we have wake up calls available. Your bill will be presented when you check out in the morning."
"Any idea how much it will be?" Luke asked.
The clerk inhaled deeply. "Well, I can't give you an exact answer, but you can expect it to be around 100 dollars."
"100 dollars?" Luke repeated.
Lorelai saw the expression on Luke's face and quickly stepped in front of him. "Well, thank you so much." Lorelai smiled as she took their room key from the lady. "Have a good evening."
"100 dollars, Lorelai." Luke stated as they stepped onto the elevator.
"I heard." Lorelai replied.
"For one night. What a rip off."
"It's not that bad." Lorelai defended. "After all, there are two of us."
Luke grumbled something under his breath and stepped off the elevator. "I call first for the shower."
"What?" Lorelai asked. "No way."
"Yes way." Luke replied.
"I smell worse." Lorelai shot back.
"That may be so." Luke smiled. "But I called firsts."
Lorelai sighed. "Fine." she paused. "Baby."
Luke and Lorelai walked into the room and set down their bags. The room was small, yet quaint. Lorelai immediately noticed the tv, and suddenly didn't care that Luke had beaten her to the shower.
"Well, I'm not wasting any time." Luke remarked as he grabbed some clothes from his suit case and walked into the tiny bathroom.
Richard and Christopher had driven far enough down the highway to see where Luke had came back onto the main road. They had driven cautiously for about an hour, then Chris couldn't hold it any longer.
"Richard."
"Yes?"
"I need to use the restroom." Chris replied.
"Again?" Richard asked, annoyed.
"I can't help it." Chris defended.
Richard sighed. "Fine... There's a hotel, you can go there." Richard pulled into the hotel parking lot. As Christopher got out of the car, he noticed a red truck sitting towards the back of the building. "Richard." Chris whispered, leaning back into the car. "Take a look over there."
