At Lorelai's, Luke is having a chat with Tom in the front yard. Apparently, an important water pipe has been hit, and Lorelai's water had to be turned off. Luke says she can stay with him, and that he'll gather up some of her stuff, since she has to be at the Inn to greet the wedding party coming in. "Last time you 'gathered some of my stuff,'" she says, "you brought me four bras, and no pants." Luke: "That could have been intentional." Hello! Lorelai says she'll get her own stuff, thanks; her only problem now is to try to figure out what to do with Paul Anka. She goes on a long spiel about how she's never left him alone so late and covers her options on what to do with him, some of which involve building a warp engine out of dilithium crystals in order to be able to get to a kennel, drop him off, and get back in time for these wedding people. Luke is staying quiet, but finally gives in and says he'll handle the dog: "And points for the dilithium crystal reference." Lorelai: "Well, when you sleep with geeks..."
