"Unbelievable," Luke grumbles, once they're alone. "I know; she didn't make nearly enough," Lorelai says, referring to the pitcher. "I meant you," Luke says. "You're acting crazy." Lorelai's mouth drops to the floor: "She's insulting you!" Luke says that Emily is being perfectly nice. Lorelai tells him that Emily's been saying awful things about him, including calling his diner "rustic," which means "crap pile." Or how "charming" means "doggie poopie." Luke says "unbelievable" again. Lorelai can't believe her mother gave Luke beer, which is backhand slang for "nitwit juice." Luke tells Lorelai she's reading way too much into this, but Lorelai says he should defer to the Gilmore expert in the room. Luke asks her to calm down, since she's making him nervous. Luke says he's a grown man, and that this isn't his first foray into the big city. (You mean "foyer," Luke. It's where they keep the panic room? Luke says that for Lorelai to make constant comments after everything Emily says makes Luke appear weak, and that he doesn't want to be weak. So in other words, shut your mouth, woman. Luke doesn't need your help. Let him suffer his own cocky consequences.
