Rory and Logan are presumably full of tapas, wine, and flan as they lie on the rooftop, looking up at the stars (none of which is falling, because again, Logan's a filthy liar). He complains that light pollution in London makes this view impossible, and Rory asks if he's tired of London. "I'm tired of not being around you," he replies. She tries to fix that problem by quoting Johnson: "When you're tired of London, you're tired of life." Logan scoffs that Johnson was clearly never in a long-distance relationship, and Rory admits that Boswell was pretty much always around. Logan catches her trying to look at his watch, and she says that she still can't believe that he's here, or that he'll be leaving again in twenty-six hours and forty-five minutes. Logan tries to get her to look on the bright side: "That's an entire lifetime to a fruit fly." Rory lectures him about the difference between mayflies and fruit flies, probably in an attempt to make the evening feel like an entire lifetime to Logan. She asks if he can stay longer if his meeting goes well tomorrow, and then they talk about the website he's looking to buy, which sounds a lot like MySpace, except it's invitation-only (which sounds like Orkut, but whatever). Rory is quite sweetly supportive and excited about the site, however, going on and on about it and advising Logan to encourage the site's owners to order an expensive breakfast: "Then they have to sell it to you. It would be rude not to." Logan calls Rory a business genius, but he also calls her "Ace" again, so it kind of evens out. She says that she's been taking an Econ class with Richard, and Logan says that he's been working hard with his whole team, the members of which even have names: "Nick, Bobby, Philip." Then he starts going into all this new-media business-speak, rattling off jargon until he notices Rory grinning at him. She says she likes it, although her tone betrays that it strikes her as a little odd that the man she loves had basically turned into a Bizarro version of himself and she still digs him. He goes on reciting from e-Business For Dummies like he's talking dirty to Rory. "Oh, stop, I'm getting weak in the knees," she says sarcastically. But then they make out some more, so obviously it totally worked anyway.
