Episode Report Card Al Lowe: A | 0 USERS: N/A YOU GRADE IT And I Think It's Gonna Be A Long, Long Time

Okay, sidenote: This Secret commercial they are playing right now...with the two women sitting there all nervous while one of them tries to tell her secret? The secret is that she's in love with her friend, right? Surely, I'm not the only one getting that vibe. It's so sweet, I nearly can't take it.
Luke's at the diner, harassing Cesar, being rude to the customers -- business as usual. He complains that Lane is not yet back from her honeymoon, saying that surely seven days is long enough for two people to sit in a mountain cabin and come to the dreadful realization that they've chained themselves together for life. Nice. The thing is, he's all grumpy, yes, but it's the normal grumpy -- neither he nor Lorelai seem terribly upset by their breakup. Cesar corrects Luke that Lane and Zach are in Mexico, anyway, and that being on the beach with the hot sun, it may take them a little longer to realize how miserable they're supposed to be. "Cesar, are you being funny?" Luke growls. Cesar: "You tell me." Heh. He determines that, uh, it would appear that Luke does not find him, or anything else in the entire world, funny. And things are about to get way less funny, which is unfortunate for us all. While assaulting a complaining customer's wrongly-cooked eggs, Luke notices that Taylor and Kirk are outside, getting up to some kind of traffic-related shenanigans. He barges out to find that, in fact, Taylor is installing a red light camera, which he claims will safeguard the town against scofflaws.
