Grace Polk : [Luke is celebrating getting his driver's license] So you did it, huh? Who cares about the polar ice cap melting? You just pack the penguins in your car. You can all do a drive-thru for a Burrito Grande.
Luke Girardi : Okay, can the preamble, Grace. If you're gonna do it, just do it, okay? I am a gas-guzzling, smog-spewing tool of a corrupt oil-based economy. So just break up with me, because I am never gonna live up to your expectations.
Grace Polk : Dude, you've endowed me with entirely too much power.
Luke Girardi : But you said...
Grace Polk : I say a lot of things. I'm just a simple anarchist trying to get through my day. You do your thing, I do mine.
Luke Girardi : So you'll ride with me?
Grace Polk : [laughing] Yeah, right. Let me go get my fur coat.
[she starts to leave]
Grace Polk : I will see you in the biology closet at 3:00.
Luke Girardi : [confused] What just happened?
Friedman : Who cares? Shotgun!
