If you have one line that goes from in front of you to infinity, and another line that goes both ways, which one is longer?

Maybe she is asking about the car brand? Sounds like a trick question to me. So lets see, if I�m on line to the car dealership for infinity and the other car goes both ways (both to infinity and Chrysler) then I would take the line that goes both ways because that line will move faster hopefully because there are two dealerships handling the line. On the other hand, what if they are giving cars away for free at infinity, then that dealership would move faster. I don�t know, I cant figure this out. Help.

I was at a shiur on Thursday and the rabbi said something about the two lines...he tied it to the parsha but I didn't remember how to explain that part.
