Character[]
Luke Danes' buffoonish brother-in-law, and the husband of Liz Danes. His real name is Gary. He is a capable carpenter[1], but is inept as a contractor when Lorelai Gilmore remodels her house[2]. Lorelai lets him think he is the acting contractor, while in reality she has another contractor handling the details. He is a generally likeable character, with a heavy New York accent.
