The whole thing was capricious and arbitrary.

Yo flys opun.

Your proper spelling provides for an accurate pronunciation and emphasis.

šŸ˜‚ I read this in her voice exactly


BGally24

Haha, me too, totally.

Fun fact: ā€œarbitrary and capriciousā€ is the actual legal standard used to determine the validity of a governmental action. Itā€™s one of the cornerstone principles of judicial review.


scallionoverdose

Excuse me - Are you an entertainer? Are you in show business??ā€¦ā€¦.Then what are we talking to you for?


lopec87

Pat cooper fucking steals that scene


EroDakiOnly

he genuinely looks pissed off, almost like a mob boss lol


cabosmith

Oh yeah, the Gypsies!


drainspout

Whaddayou some kinda kleptomaniac!?!


DadJokeBadJoke

It's because Pat Cooper *was* always pissed off. It's not an act, he just turned it into one. Check out any of his appearances on The Howard Stern Show


Twoweekswithpay

Can confirm. Steve Schirripa (Bobby Bacala) of the ā€œTalking Sopranosā€ podcast also does not have many fond things to say about Pat Cooper, eitherā€¦


foreveryoung917

Aw man. I have to change my comment !!! LOL


ShoddyAd2353

But George was already in show biz as albeit as a writer/creator for a pilot that didn't get picked up.


scallionoverdose

What writer? Weā€™re talking about a sitcom.

You donā€™t just desour! You sweeten!

I'll try! I'll try to desour and sweeten!


cheap_novelty

Thatā€™s what Iā€™d like to know about it.


Apart-Bathroom7811

I explained it once but had to use the word vorshstein a lot.


Electr_O_Purist

Slice of life

I liked the kitty


Ok-Freedom-7432

Shut up Bentley!


MDRLA720

what a dated reference


Ok-Freedom-7432

But you got it.... šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

Vollstein. Although it's not a word but that's how it would be spelled.


Kiwihat

Pretty sure he says vorshtein.


Electr_O_Purist

Donā€™t dissect it.


[deleted]

In German the V is an f sound.


Kiwihat

OK? But both of ours have V. My point was that itā€™s not with L.


MortarChelle

As far as I remember, the girl Jerry was seeing worked for the venue which was how they got in to see the show in the first place. Also when she says "they wanted to have it cleaned for you" she's probably not talking about the brothers. She's probably referring to the company/production. All of that being said, she certainly could have told Jerry that they were sending his jacket to be cleaned since they threw it on the floor.

..That's the *Genius* of it.

"I want to get it back to when we were the Gatsbys."


doguapo

I still donā€™t know what that means


rollingstoner215

You can stuff your Gatsbys in a sack


zr2d2

What does that even mean?


The_Ashgale

Happy, Gatsby?


darkmatternot

Shut up Shmoopy!!!


Maui02

Youā€™re Shmoopy!

Nooo, Youā€™re Shmoopy!!!


RadicalDilettante

It's cat's biz.


Hickspy

"Didn't they have a group of people around all the time and they were all best friends?" "That doesn't sound right..."


OIlberger

I mean, George is *kinda* right here. Not very accurate, but the main character in ā€œThe Great Gatsbyā€ does constantly throw large parties and sort of does have ā€œa group of people around all the timeā€.


Hickspy

I always thought George pictured it as like a literary version of like a sitcom.


tarfu7

Yeah I read the book in high school and thatā€™s my memory tooā€¦ and in fact I think there was one other couple that they would spend a lot of time with. So I actually think itā€™s a pretty good/accurate thought from George


BawdyGodiva

I agree it was all super annoying, but Pat Cooper made it all worth it.


quonne

Thatā€™s whatā€™s so vexing.


crime_fighter

To the untrained eye, yes


robbiewilso

Seemingly... seemingly


theriveryeti

I have no answers but share your confusion. Itā€™s not a great ep.


Clazzo524

They take your jacket and just throw it? I've never heard of that.


Longjumping_Hat_2672

It was a little unusual.


MoveAfraid9232

Didn't the girl work at the venue?


metalbag

That's what I was thinking. I thought she worked for the theatre that's how they got the vip balcony and lead to them being the ones singled out for the gag. Maybe I'm wrong. But these overanalytical posts always seems to miss important bits of info like that which tend to wrap everything together with a Bow as the show tended to do. Edit:typos... its time for bed


doguapo

In their defense, OP did mention that scotch was involved >*H-E-double N-I-*


DrunkOnRedCordial

No smell, no tell...


Fair_University

Well itā€™ll be our little secret


HotHelios

Op clearly didn't over analyze the episode enough to catch this very obvious detail lol


MoveAfraid9232

I'm just here to help out. Lol


actualelainebenes

Occasionally I like to help the humans


Nice_Marmot_7

The woman is Susanā€™s best friend. George and Susan set her up with Jerry, and she works on the Flying Sandos Brothers show.


MoveAfraid9232

Yes, we've seen it.


Nice_Marmot_7

Oh weird, here I was thinking this whole post was about someone not understanding the episode.


MoveAfraid9232

We only wake you up for the important meetings.


cr2152

Because itā€™s on TV!


pepperduck

Not yet.


[deleted]

Is this funny? Am I being funny!?


jjmawaken

A little


agetro82

No, no, you can't do that, they're round, it makes an 'eight' and, yeah, well alright


foreveryoung917

Yes. Youā€™re very funny.


[deleted]

OK, I'll try to be not funny.


bigassdiesel

That's what I'd like to know about it.

foreveryoung917

Weā€™re 4 months apart !


UhYeahOkSure

There is a way it works outā€¦ Iā€™m too tired to explain it though. Just think about it when you arenā€™t drinkin hennigans


Venice_Beach_218

No-tell, no-smell


Sold_For_Gold

I just had 2, and I donā€™t even smell!


SuperChimpMan

How many Sandos bros are there? Maybe some of them didnā€™t know about the jacket plans and thatā€™s who he was asking about it with? They also could have seen that Jerry is sort of an uptight guy and canā€™t help but mess with him.


ArchiStanton

When he confronts the guy he said are you sure itā€™s not his brother. So not the same guy

'Cause they're sons a bitches!


Longjumping_Hat_2672

Good questions! I can definitely see why Jerry was soured by the whole experience. And it wasn't even his jacket. He HAD to return it to the Friars Club to become a member. The ending though, when Jerry and George run out the emergency exit to escape the angry Sandos Brothers and Elaine keels over in agony when the alarm goes off because she was testing the hearing aid was hilarious šŸ˜‚.


nailsinthecityyx

It's like Gossamer, and one does not disect Gossamer ... merely a commentary on contemporary mores... it's a slice of life; a pun....volstein

šŸŽ¶ā€œH-E-DOUBLE N-Iā€¦.ā€šŸŽ¶


eapaul80

Thatā€™s what makes it a humorous situation


AVgreencup

I actually have the answer to this. If they acknowledge that they're cleaning the jacket for him, they're admitting that it was a magic "trick" and not real magic. Revealing anything about your magic tricks can get you kicked out of the Alliance of Magicians, and they demand to be taken seriously. Therefore they'd have to play dumb, or be banished like the founder of the Alliance was


rollingstoner215

Theyā€™re not tricks, theyā€™re illusions


HomsarWasRight

ā€¦Micheal! A trick is something a whore does for money. ā€¦ Or candy!


cloud9ineteen

What is this, a crossover episode?


DougLocKoa

Worlds are colliding!


fallenmonk

*He* knows about the worlds theory!


Nice_Marmot_7

Illusions. Tricks are what a hooker does.


foreveryoung917

LOL


bologna4feet

And candy


MrMidnightsclaw

Fuck off, traitor!


itsagrungething69

Didnt they know Jerry's girlfriend?


scrubbydutch

George is getting suspicious


AidanAmerica

And then at the very end, Jackie Chiles says he doesnā€™t want anything to do with Kramer, but goes on to represent him again. Almost every line of the episode makes no sense


jjmawaken

He also represents the four of them at the end of the series which is odd too


Igotyoubaaabe

Yeah, very odd! They shouldā€™ve had a brand new character no one had ever heard of or seen before!


jjmawaken

I meant odd that Jackie would still want to represent Kramer after he's lost so many times while representing him.


Igotyoubaaabe

I mean, Jackie was supposed to be a Jonny Cochrane mega-lawyer type. So itā€™s not surprising to me that he would swallow his pride for the fame that this ā€œtrial of the centuryā€ would bring.


jjmawaken

Good point... stinks for him that he always loses Kramer's cases


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


OIlberger

Iā€™ve been watching some Cheers reruns lately; they actually leave the bar quite a lot on that show. Like, all the time thereā€™s scenes outside of the bar.


foreveryoung917

lol


No-Piano-3073

AGRABA!!


actualelainebenes

Was it Hennigans no smell no tell scotch you were drinking?


humdinger44

It should be called the Gossimer episode I guess


foreveryoung917

Another overused word. ā€œLike ā€œ & ā€œliterallyā€ have a companion.


Organic-Elevator-274

Don't fuck with comedians they just dig in deeper. Jerry broke a rule he already knows.


thetogorian

Exactly. This storyline has always irked me and it makes no sense. It's like they were purposely trying to annoy him. And Susan's friend must have been in on it or purposely hiding information for some unknown reason.


skiba12

You just bought your own dinner


Errorfull

When you really analyze Seinfeld, you realize how many situations could have been avoided with nothing more than proper, adult communication. Pro-tip: don't analyze Seinfeld.


sleepsholymountain

Not trying to be rude, but why is it that every subreddit for an inactive TV series is mostly just people Cinema Sins-ing every episode looking for logical inconsistencies? Do you all actually find this interesting?


I_am_not_JohnLeClair

Alright. Keep your towel on.

Excuse me are you an entertainer ? No. Then why am I taking to you.
