Speaking of delivery, Sookie sidles up to Luke, who's complaining that he won't make a Last Supper table for those freaks. "Anyone ask you to, Jose?" Lorelai asks. Luke says that they haven't, but that he knows they will. They figure out a way to discuss a townie who isn't even in this episode, Tom the contractor, until Luke asks Sookie if she's having twins. Sookie says she isn't. Luke says she looks like she's having twins. Sookie: "You're gonna make me fall in love with you, Luke." Luke complains that making a table like that with forced perspective would take hours. Lorelai reminds him that nobody's asked him to do it. "Not yet," Luke repeats.
Kirk is still preaching as Lorelai and Sookie walk to find some food. "There might be loaves and fishes," Lorelai says. "I had fish last night," Sookie grumps.
Babette finds Rory getting out of her car and warbles, "Dig those sounds coming out of that garage!" Babette is very impressed with the new guitarist, who she thinks is a total hottie: "Like a long-haired cake!" Rory says that Lane asked her to come down and "drink in the whole picture." Huh. That's two unrelated scenes in one episode with that exact phrase. I wish we'd seen the Babette/SB interaction instead of hearing about it afterward.
Rory is a little shocked at SB's age, but she's clearly impressed with the way the band sounds. She applauds when the song ends. "I gotta go," SB says. "Go rest," mfTL mumbles. SB says that the band's gonna be as famous as Pink Floyd. "Nice topical reference," mfTL chides. SB loads his guitar and leaves, saying they'll talk later. Never in the history of music has one musician broken down and left a building so quickly. Lane asks Rory what she thinks. "He's great," she says. She admits that SB is experienced, and that Babette thinks he's really cute: "So she's got dibs." Rory likes the way he jumped at the end of the song. "I thought he was going to break a hip," says mfTL. Lane says that SB is the band's only prospect. Brian says that the schoolboy outfit is worth a shot. mfTL says the bottom line is: "Dude rocks. But dude's too old." That's that, they decide, and that could be that for the band, too. Lane isn't happy with this decision.
