Luke's. Kirk has followed a lady into the restroom in order to get her pink ribbon. Luke can't believe how quickly Lorelai wolfed down her burger. Lorelai says she only has fifteen minutes before she has to be back at the inn. Luke worries that she'll get sick from eating so quickly. Lorelai smiles and says that her sickness will reminder her of him. "It'll be romantic." Kirk notes he gets "romantic nausea" all the time. Lorelai asks to be hit with some boysenberry pie. Luke says they're out. Lorelai is indignant, especially since she mistakenly thinks she told him to save her the last piece of boysenberry pie because she's back to being Luke's girlfriend and when she's Luke's girlfriend the world revolves very tightly around her unpredictable whims and desires. Turns out Lorelai left a message on Luke's cell phone concerning the pie slice. Luke has no idea how to work his voicemail. Lorelai laughs at him and grabs the phone. She tells him the cell phone is powerful, wonderful, and will change his life. Lorelai programs her number into his speed dial. She makes herself number one because she's number one. Perhaps voicemail should be number one. Ah, forget it. Who's going to call Luke other than Lorelai, anyway? She calls herself and says hello. Luke grabs his own cell phone to tell her over the phone, "No cell phones in the diner." Lorelai offers to put the cell phone on vibrate. Luke says her fifteen minutes is up. He hands her a donut for the road and says he'll pick her up at 8 on Sunday. Lorelai says she'll leave him a message letting him know his chances of getting lucky. Hey! Kirk's trying to eat around here. Lorelai asks Kirk how the ribbon collecting is going. "Why do you get him started?" Luke grumps. Kirk says they're near the finish line. Lorelai wants to know who's winning, even though Luke says it's not a contest and doesn't care. He says he knows Lorelai's winning because she's a total Townie who does all the stupid Townie events and has a Townie Kewpie Doll daughter. Kirk tells Lorelai: "You're kicking his ass." Lorelai shouts in triumph and asks for a final tally, because the loser must buy dinner on Sunday.
