Luke: Who did you want to get your basket?
Lorelai: What?
Luke: I mean, before you knew Patty was gonna put you on the Dating Game, you did pack this disgusting lunch and bring it out here, so who did you want to get it?
Lorelai: Well, last year Roy Wilkins bought it and I got my sprinklers fixed for half price.
Luke: Uh huh.
Lorelai: And this year my rain gutters are completely clogged, and I thought if I could get the Collins kid to bite, I'd get that taken care of.
Luke: Very practical.
Lorelai: I thought so.
Luke: So the participation in this thing was purely for home improvement reasons?
Lorelai: Yes. And I don't know, it's a nice concept.
Luke: What is?
Lorelai: Just having someone who you love or have some kind of crazy crush on bid on your basket and then share a romantic lunch, it's a nice concept.
Luke: Well, I'm sure someday you'll manage to find the right guy and drag him out to this thing and make him by your stupid basket and then you'll be sitting out here with him.
Lorelai: Yeah, someday.
Luke: You know what?
Lorelai: What?
Luke: This is nice.
