Noah: I need you to tell me everything you know about Luke.

Matt: Who’s Luke?

Noah: You don’t know Luke?

Matt: Do you mean the Sam Elliott guy?

Noah: You know who Sam Elliott is?

Matt: I just know everybody in town keeps saying Luke looks like him.

Noah: So what do you know about him?

Matt: Luke?

Noah: No! Sam Elliott!

Matt: Not much other than I’m guessing he must look a lot like Luke.

Noah: I’m starting to wish I’d been the one to drop you in the dunk tank this afternoon.

Matt: You heard about that?

Noah: Even Sam Elliott heard about that.

Matt: Did Sam Elliott hear about your little bathtub episode with Aunt Gracie?

Noah: Hey. We’re supposed to be talking about Luke.

Matt: Right. What do you want to know?

Noah: Not sure. Guess I just want to know if I need to be worried about Luke and Gracie having any little bathtub episodes together.

Matt: Thanks for that disturbing mental image. And no, I don’t think so.

Noah: What makes you say that?

Matt: Well, to steal a line from Grandpa, I’ve seen more spark between a limp worm and a dead fish than I’ve seen between Luke and Gracie.

Noah: I love Buck.

Matt: He’s the best. Any other questions?

Noah: Guess not.

Matt: Can I ask what’s going on with you and Aunt Gracie?

Noah: You can ask. Not sure I can answer. It’s complicated.

Matt: I get it. I’m still trying to find a few answers myself.

Noah: About you and Rachel?

Matt: About Sam Elliott.
