First scene.<br>
Elaine is getting ready to drive Puddy's car, he's giving her last minute<br>
instructions.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Alright, be careful with the car, babe.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Yeah, yeah.<br>
<br>
Puddy: And don't move the seat, I got it right where I like it.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Goodbye?<br>
<br>
Puddy: Two and ten, babe.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Okay.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Don't peel out.<br>
<br>
Elaine: I won't.<br>
<br>
Elaine peels out and turns on the car stereo. She hears: &quot;Jesus is
one, Jesus<br>
is all, Jesus picks me up when I fall...&quot; Elaine changes the stations
but all<br>
of the presets are set to religious radio stations; &quot;And he said
unto<br>
Abraham...&quot;, &quot;Amen! Amen!&quot;, &quot;So we pray...&quot;,
&quot;Saved!&quot;, &quot;Jey-sus!&quot; She turns<br>
off the radio.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Jesus?<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Meeting at George's office. His Boss, Mr. Kruger, is speaking.<br>
<br>
Kruger: According to our latest quarterly thing,Kruger Industrial Smoothing
is<br>
heading into the red. Or the black, or whatever the bad one is. Any thoughts?<br>
<br>
George: Well, I know when I'm a little strapped, I sometimes drop off
my rent<br>
check having forgotten to sign it. That could buy us some time.<br>
<br>
Kruger: Works for me. Good thinking, George.<br>
<br>
Co-worker 1: Alright, George.<br>
<br>
Co-worker 2: Way to go man.<br>
<br>
George: Or we don't even send the check and then when they call, we pretend<br>
we're the cleaning service. Heh heh. &quot;Hello? I sorry, no here Kruger.&quot;<br>
<br>
Kruger: Are you done? Silly voices, c'mon people, let's get real.<br>
<br>
Co-worker 1: Good one.<br>
<br>
Co-worker 2: That was bad.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
George and Jerry are at the coffee shop.<br>
<br>
George: I had 'em, Jerry. They loved me.<br>
<br>
JerrY: And then?<br>
<br>
George: I lost them. I can usually come up with one good comment during
a<br>
meeting but by the end it's buried under a pile of gaffs and bad puns.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Showmanship, George. When you hit that high note, you say goodnight
and<br>
walk off.<br>
<br>
George: I can't just leave.<br>
<br>
Jerry: That's the way they do it in Vegas.<br>
<br>
George: You never played Vegas.<br>
<br>
Jerry: I hear things.<br>
<br>
Elaine enters and has a seat.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Here's one. I borrowed Puddy's car and all the presets on his
radio<br>
were Christian rock stations.<br>
<br>
George: I like Christian rock. It's very positive. It's not like those
real<br>
musicians who think they're so cool and hip.<br>
<br>
Elaine: So, you think that Puddy actually believes in something?<br>
<br>
Jerry: It's a used car, he probably never changed the presets.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Yes, he is lazy.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Plus he probably doesn't even know how to program the buttons.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Yes, he is dumb.<br>
<br>
Jerry: So you prefer dumb and lazy to religious?<br>
<br>
Elaine: Dumb and lazy, I understand.<br>
<br>
George: Tell you how you could check.<br>
<br>
Elaine: How?<br>
<br>
George: Reprogram all the buttons, see if he changes them back. You know?
The<br>
old switcheroo.<br>
<br>
Jerry: No, no, the old switcheroo is you poison your drink then you switch
it<br>
with the other person's.<br>
<br>
George: No, it's doing the same thing to someone that they did to you.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Yeah, Elaine's gonna do the same thing to Puddy's radio that the
radio<br>
did to her.<br>
<br>
George: Well that's the gist of it!<br>
<br>
Elaine: Quiet! So where is this Sophie?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Oh, she's picking me up in a few minutes.<br>
<br>
Elaine: How long have you two been together?<br>
<br>
Jerry: I dunno. Since the last one. Oh, here she is. You wanna meet her?<br>
<br>
Elaine and George: Nah.<br>
<br>
Jerry leaves to go meet Sophie by the register.<br>
<br>
George: By the way, how did Puddy get back in the picture?<br>
<br>
Elaine: I needed to move a bureau.<br>
<br>

<br>
New scene.<br>
Kramer and Mickey enter Jerry's apartment.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Hey Jerry, you got any pepper?<br>
<br>
Mickey: Hey Jerry.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Hey Mickey. Check the pepper shaker.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Yeah. (inhales some pepper then sneezes violently) See? It should<br>
sound like that, something like that.<br>
<br>
Mickey: Aah-choo.<br>
<br>
Kramer: A little wetter. See, I didn't believe it.<br>
<br>
Jerry: What's with the fake sneezing?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Yeah, we're going down to Mt. Sinai Hospital, See they hire actors
to<br>
help the students practice diagnosing.<br>
<br>
Mickey: They assign you a specific disease and you act out the symptoms.
It's<br>
an easy gig.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Do medical schools actually do this?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Well the better ones. Alright, let's practice retching.<br>
<br>
Kramer and Mickey: HUAAHHH!!<br>
<br>
Jerry: I think the phone is ringing.<br>
<br>
Kramer and Mickey: HUAAHHH!!<br>
<br>
Jerry: Would you hold it a second?! Thank you, will you get out of here
with<br>
that stuff?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Mickey, DTs.<br>
<br>
Kramer and Mickey exit, shaking, while Jerry answers the phone.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Hello?<br>
<br>
Sophie: Hey. It's me.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Elaine?<br>
<br>
Sophie: No, it's me.<br>
<br>
Jerry: George??<br>
<br>
Sophie: Jerry, it's Sophie. I can't believe you don't recognize my voice.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Oh, I knew it was you, I was joking. I'm a comedian.<br>
<br>
Kramer enters.<br>
<br>
Kramer: You got any Ipecac?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Ipecac? Kramer, I really think you guys are going too far with
this.<br>
<br>
Kramer: No, Mickey, he swallowed twelve aspirin.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Did he overdose?<br>
<br>
Kramer: No, it's just too much.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Office meeting at Kruger Industrial Smoothing.<br>
<br>
Kruger: ...And it gets worse. The team working on the statue in Lafayette<br>
Square kind of over-smoothed it. They ground the head down to about the
size of<br>
a softball, and that spells trouble.<br>
<br>
George: Alright, well why don't we smooth the head down to nothing, stick
a<br>
pumpkin under its arm and change the nameplate to Ichabod Crane?<br>
<br>
Everyone at the meeting breaks out in laughter.<br>
<br>
George (getting up and leaving): Alright! That's it for me. Goodnight<br>
everybody.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Mt. Sanai Hospital, a woman in a lab coat is handing out envelopes to
a group of<br>
people, Mickey and Kramer included.<br>
<br>
Dr. Wexler: In your packet you will find the disease you have been assigned
and<br>
the symptoms you will need to exhibit.<br>
<br>
Mickey: Bacterial Meningitis. Jackpot!<br>
<br>
Kramer: Gonorrhea? You wanna trade?<br>
<br>
Mickey: Sorry buddy, this is the &quot;Hamlet&quot; of diseases. Severe
pain, nausea,<br>
delusions, it's got everything.<br>
<br>
Kramer (to the man beside him): Howbout you, do you wanna trade?<br>
<br>
Man: Sure.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Okay, what do you got?<br>
<br>
Man: The surgeon left a sponge inside me.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Good luck with that.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
George and Jerry are at Jerry's apartment.<br>
<br>
George: I knew I had hit my high note so I thanked the crowd and I was
gone.<br>
<br>
Jerry: What did you do the rest of the day?<br>
<br>
George: I saw &quot;Titanic&quot;. So that old woman, she's just a liar,
right?<br>
<br>
Jerry: And a bit of a tramp if you ask me.<br>
<br>
Elaine enters.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Hello boys.<br>
<br>
George: Hey, so, did you give that radio the old switcheroo?<br>
<br>
Elaine: I did.<br>
<br>
George: And the Christian rock?<br>
<br>
Elaine: Ressurected! And look what I pried off of his bumper, a Jesus
fish!<br>
<br>
George: Jerry, do you have any fishsticks?<br>
<br>
Jerry: No. So you're disappointed he's a spiritual person?<br>
<br>
Elaine: Well yeah, I got him because he seemed so one-dimensional, I feel<br>
misled.<br>
<br>
George: I think it's neat. You don't hear that much about god anymore.<br>
<br>
Jerry: I hear things. Hey, so Sophie gave me the &quot;It's me&quot; on
the phone today.<br>
<br>
Elaine: &quot;It's me?&quot; Isn't it a little premature?<br>
<br>
Jerry: I thought so.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Hah. She's not a &quot;me&quot;. I'm a &quot;me&quot;.<br>
<br>
George: I'm against all &quot;it's me&quot;s. So self-absorbed and egotistical,
it's<br>
like those hip musicians with their complicated shoes!<br>
<br>
Kramer enters.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Well, I got gonorrhea.<br>
<br>
Elaine: That seems about right.<br>
<br>
Kramer: That's what they gave me.<br>
<br>
George: They? The Government?<br>
<br>
Jerry: No, no. He's pretending he's got gonorrhea so med students can
diagnose<br>
it.<br>
<br>
Kramer: And it's a waste of my talent. It's just a little burning. Mickey,
he<br>
got bacterial meningitis.<br>
<br>
George: I guess there are no small diseases, only small actors.<br>
<br>
The other three start laughing.<br>
<br>
George (leaving): Alright that's it for me. Good night everybody.<br>
<br>
Elaine: What was that?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Showmanship, George is trying to get out on a high note.<br>
<br>
Kramer: See, showmanship. Maybe that's what my gonorrhea is missing.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Yes! Step into that spotlight and belt that gonorrhea out to the
back<br>
row.<br>
<!-- BeginAd02 --><!-- EndAd -->
<br>
Kramer: Yes, yes I will! I'm gonna make people feel my gonorrhea, and
feel the<br>
gonorrhea themselves.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Mt. Sanai Hospital. Kramer is on the table surrounded by med students.<br>
<br>
Student #1: And are you experiencing any discomfort?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Just a little burning during urination.<br>
<br>
Student #1: Okay, any other pain?<br>
<br>
Kramer: The haunting memories of lost love. May I? (signals to Mickey)
<br>
Lights? (Mickey turns down the lights and Kramer lights a cigar) Our eyes
met<br>
across the crowded hat store. I, a customer, and she a coquettish haberdasher.
<br>
Oh, I pursued and she withdrew, then she pursued and I withdrew, and so
we<br>
danced. I burned for her, much like the burning during urination that
I would<br>
experience soon afterwards.<br>
<br>
Student #1: Gonorrhea?!<br>
<br>
Kramer: Gonorrhea!<br>
<br>
The lab breaks out in spontaneous applause as Mickey turns up the lights
and<br>
Kramer takes a bow.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Jerry and George are back at Jerry's apartment. Jerry is checking his
phone<br>
messages.<br>
<br>
Jerry: One message. Hope it's not from you.<br>
<br>
Answering machine: &quot;Hey Jerry, it's me. Call me back.&quot;<br>
<br>
Jerry: Sophie.<br>
<br>
George: She's still doing that?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Yep.<br>
<br>
George: Alright, I'll tell you what you do. You call her back and give
her the<br>
&quot;it's me&quot;, heh? Pull the old switcheroo.<br>
<br>
Jerry: I think that's a &quot;what's good for the goose is good for the
gander&quot;.<br>
<br>
George: What the hell is a gander, anyway?<br>
<br>
Jerry (picking up the phone and dialing): It's a goose that's had the
old<br>
switcheroo pulled on it. Hi Sophie, it's me.<br>
<br>
Sophie: Hey Raef.<br>
<br>
Jerry (to George): She thinks it's someone named Raef.<br>
<br>
George: Good, let her think it.<br>
<br>
Jerry (into the phone, with a disguised voice): So, what's going on?<br>
<br>
Sophie: Not a lot.<br>
<br>
George: Ask about you, ask about you.<br>
<br>
Jerry: So, uh, how are things with Jerry?<br>
<br>
Sophie: Oh, I really like him but, well, I still haven't told him the
tractor<br>
story.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Right, right, the tractor story.<br>
<br>
Sophie: Are you sick, Raef? You sound kinda funny.<br>
<br>
Jerry: I sound funny?<br>
<br>
George: Abort! Abort!<br>
<br>
Jerry: Yeah I better get to a doctor, bye. (Hangs up) That was close!
What<br>
drives me to take chances like that?<br>
<br>
George: That was very real.<br>
<br>
Jerry: She said there's some tractor story that she hasn't told me about.<br>
<br>
George: Woah, back it up, back it up. Beep, beep, beep. Tractor story?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Beep, beep, beep? What are you doing?<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Elaine and Puddy are at Puddy's apartment.<br>
<br>
Elaine: So where do you wanna eat?<br>
<br>
Puddy: Feels like an Arby's night.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Arby's. Beef and cheese and do you believe in god?<br>
<br>
Puddy: Yes.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Oh. So, you're pretty religious?<br>
<br>
Puddy: That's right.<br>
<br>
Elaine: So is it a problem that I'm not really religious?<br>
<br>
Puddy: Not for me.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Why not?<br>
<br>
Puddy: I'm not the one going to hell.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Jerry and George are at the coffee shop.<br>
<br>
George: You know what I think? I bet she stole a tractor.<br>
<br>
Jerry: No one's stealing a tractor, it's a five-mile-an-hour getaway.
We're<br>
dancing around the obvious, it's gotta be disfigurement.<br>
<br>
George: Does she walk around holding a pen she never seems to need?<br>
<br>
Jerry: No, she looks completely normal.<br>
<br>
George: Oh. Okay, here it is, I got it. She lost her thumbs in a tractor<br>
accident and they grafted her big toes on. They do it every day.<br>
<br>
Jerry: You think she's got toes for thumbs?<br>
<br>
George: How's her handshake? A little firm, isn't it? Maybe a little too<br>
firm?<br>
<br>
Jerry: I don't know.<br>
<br>
George: Hands a little smelly?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Why do I seek your counsel?<br>
<br>
Elaine walks in.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Well I'm going to hell.<br>
<br>
Jerry: That seems about right.<br>
<br>
Elaine: According to Puddy.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Hey, have you heard the one about the guy in hell with the coffee
and<br>
the doughtnuts and--<br>
<br>
Elaine: I'm not in the mood.<br>
<br>
George (To a passing waitress): I'll have some coffee and a doughnut.<br>
<br>
Jerry: What do you care? You don't believe in hell.<br>
<br>
Elaine: I know, but he does.<br>
<br>
Jerry: So it's more of a relationship problem than the final destination
of<br>
your soul.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Well, relationships are very important to me.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Maybe you can strike one up with the prince of darkness as you
burn for<br>
all eternity.<br>
<br>
George (to the waitress bringing his doughnut): And a slice of devil's
food<br>
cake.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Kruger's office. George enters, seeing nobody but Mr. Kruger.<br>
<br>
George: Hey. Where is everyone?<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: They're all off the project. They were boring. George, you
are my<br>
main man.<br>
<br>
George: I am?<br>
<br>
<!-- BeginAd03 --><!-- EndAd -->
Mr. Kruger: I don't know what it is, I can't put my finger on it, but
lately<br>
you have just seemed 'on'. And you always leave me wanting more.<br>
<br>
George: This is a huge project involving lots of numbers and papers and<br>
folders.<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: Ah, I'm not too worried about it. Let's get started.<br>
<br>
George: Okay.<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: George? Check it out. (He begins to spin around in his chair)<br>
Three times around, no feet.<br>
<br>
George: And?<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: All me.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Kramer and Mickey are back at Mt. Sinai.<br>
<br>
Dr. Wexler: Alright, and here are you ailments for this week. By the way,
Mr.<br>
Kramer, you were excellent.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Oh, thank you.<br>
<br>
Mickey: Cirrhosis of the liver with jaundice! Alright I get to wear make-up!
<br>
What did you get?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Gonorrhea? Excuse me, I think there's been a mistake, see, I had<br>
gonorrhea last week.<br>
<br>
Dr. Wexler: Oh, it's no mistake. We loved what you did with it.<br>
<br>
Kramer: I don't believe this, I'm being typecast.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Jerry and Sophie are at Jerry's playing chess.<br>
<br>
Sophie: I move my knight... here. Check.<br>
<br>
Jerry: They should update these pieces, nobody rides horses anymore. Maybe<br>
they should change it to a tractor.<br>
<br>
Sophie: Jerry, are you embarrassed that you're losing?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Losing? You know, yesterday I lost control of my car, almost bought
the<br>
farm.<br>
<br>
Sophie: Bought the farm?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Tractor!<br>
<br>
Sophie: This is an odd side of you, Jerry. I feel uncomfortable.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Wait, don't go. Let's thumb wrestle.<br>
<br>
Sophie drops her purse and when she bends down to pick it up, Jerry nods<br>
knowingly.<br>

New scene.<br>
Jerry and George are at the coffee shop.<br>
<br>
George: A scar?<br>
<br>
Jerry: A big long scar where her leg would dangle when she's riding a...?<br>
<br>
George: A tractor.<br>
<br>
Jerry: I'm sure she's a little self-conscious and doesn't like to talk
about<br>
it.<br>
<br>
George: I don't see why's she more self-conscious about that than her
toe<br>
thumbs.<br>
<br>
Jerry: She doesn't have toe thumbs.<br>
<br>
George: Well, if she keeps horsing around with that tractor--<br>
<br>
Jerry: Alright. So how's the two-man operation at Kruger?<br>
<br>
George: Two-man? It's all me. Kruger doesn't do anything; Disappears for<br>
hours at a time, gives me fake excuses. This afternoon I found him with
sleep<br>
creases on his face. The only reason I got out to get a bite today was
that he<br>
finally promised to buckle down and do some actual work. (turning around,
George<br>
sees Mr. Kruger at a booth eating a piece of cake) Oh, I don't believe
this. <br>
This is what I have to put up with, Jerry. (He walks over) Mr. Kruger?
Who<br>
said he was going to do some actual work today? Who?<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: I'm not too worried about it.<br>
<br>
George: Well I am. Couldn't you try to go through some of that stuff I
put in<br>
your shoebox?<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: Alright, alright I'm going.<br>
<br>
George (to Jerry): Huh-ho! Have you ever seen anything like this?<br>
<br>
Jerry: Never.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Elaine's hallway. The door opens, Puddy steps out in his bathrobe. There's
a<br>
newspaper in front of the door across from Elaine's.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Elaine, they forgot to deliver your paper today. Why don't you
just<br>
grab that one.<br>
<br>
Elaine: 'Cause that belongs to Mr. Potato Guy, that's his.<br>
<br>
Puddy: C'mon, get it.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Well if you want it, you get it.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Sorry, thou shalt not steal.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Oh, but it's ok for me?<br>
<br>
Puddy: What do you care, you know where you're going.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Alright, that is it! I can't live like this.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Nah.<br>
<br>
Elaine: C'mon.<br>
<br>
Puddy: Alright, what did I do?<br>
<br>
Elaine: David, I'm going to hell! The worst place in the world! With devils<br>
and those caves and the ragged clothing! And the heat! My god, the heat!
I<br>
mean, what do you think about all that?<br>
<br>
Puddy: Gonna be rough.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Uh, you should be trying to save me!<br>
<br>
Puddy: Don't boss me! This is why you're going to hell.<br>
<br>
Elaine: I am not going to hell and if you think I'm going to hell, you
should<br>
care that I'm going to hell even though I am not.<br>
<br>
Puddy: You stole my Jesus fish, didn't you?<br>
<br>
Elaine: Yeah, that's right!<br>
<br>
Elaine places her hands beside her head, index fingers raised as 'horns'
and she<br>
emits a gutteral growling sound.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>

<br>
Mickey: Oh, my liver! Why did I drink all those years? Why did I look
for<br>
love in a bottle?<br>
<br>
Dr. Wexler: Mr. Kramer? You're up.<br>
<br>
Kramer walks in, his face is noticably yellow.<br>
<br>
Mickey: Wait a minute. You are doing gonorrhea, aren't you?<br>
<br>
Kramer: Well, we'll see.<br>
<br>
Student #2: So, what seems to be bothering you today, Mr. Kramer?<br>
<br>
Kramer (pulling a liquor bottle from his jacket pocket): Well, I guess
it<br>
started about twenty years ago when I got back from Viet Nam, and this
was the<br>
only friend I had left.<br>
<br>
Mickey: Hey! That's my cirrhosis! He's stealing my cirrhosis! (he jumps<br>
Kramer) You wanna be sick? I'll make you sick.<br>
<br>
They fall to the floor, wrestling.<br>
<br>
Student #2: Cirrhosis of the liver and PCP addiction?<br>

<br>
New scene.<br>
<!-- BeginAd04 --><!-- EndAd -->
Elaine and Puddy have gone to see a priest, Father Curtis.<br>
<br>
Father Curtis: Let me see if I understand this. You're concerned that
he isn't<br>
concerned that you're going to hell. And you feel that she's too bossy.<br>
<br>
Elaine and Puddy: Yeah, that's right.<br>
<br>
Father Curtis: Well, oftentimes in cases of inter-faith marriages, couples
have<br>
difficulty--<br>
<br>
Elaine (Interrupting): Woah, woah, woah! No one's getting married here.<br>
<br>
Father Curtis: You aren't?<br>
<br>
Puddy: No.<br>
<br>
Elaine: We're just, you know, having a good time.<br>
<br>
Father Curtis: Oh, well then it's simple. You're both going to hell.<br>
<br>
Puddy: No way, this is bogus, man!<br>
<br>
Elaine: Well, thank you father.<br>
<br>
Father Curtis: Oh, did you hear the one about the new guy in hell who's
talkng<br>
to the devil by the coffee machine?<br>
<br>
Puddy: I'm really not in the mood, I'm going to hell.<br>
<br>
Elaine: Oh, lighten up. It'll only feel like an eternity.<br>
<br>
Elaine makes the same 'fingers up' devil gesture as she did in her apartment
and<br>
Father Curtis joins in.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>
Jerry and Sophie ar at Jerry's apartment.<br>
<br>
Sophie: You know, Jerry, there's this thing that I haven't told you about.
<br>
See, there was this tractor and, oh boy, this is really difficult.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Sophie, it's me. I know about the tractor story and I'm fine with
it.<br>
<br>
Sophie: How could you know?<br>
<br>
Jerry (putting his finger to Sophie's lips, then to his own, then back
to<br>
Sopie's): Shh. Shh. Shh. It's not important. What's important is I'm not<br>
gonna let a little thing like that ruin what could be a very long-term
and<br>
meaningful relationship.<br>
<br>
Kramer and Mickey barge in, they're in the middle of an argument.<br>
<br>
Kramer: ...I didn't say that, no.<br>
<br>
Mickey: You gave me gonorrhea, you didn't even tell me!<br>
<br>
Kramer: Well, I'm sorry. I gave you gonorrhea because I thought you'd
have fun<br>
with it.<br>
<br>
Jerry: Hey, hey! I'm with someone.<br>
<br>
Kramer: Oh. Hello.<br>
<br>
Sophie: No, I understand. This could be a tough thing to deal with. The<br>
important thing is that you have a partner who's supportive.<br>
<br>
Kramer (to Mickey): You know? She's right.<br>
<br>
Sophie: Unfortunately, I didn't have a partner. I got gonorrhea from a<br>
tractor.<br>
<br>
Jerry: You got gonorrhea from a tractor?? And you call *that* your tractor<br>
story??<br>
<br>
Kramer: You can't get it from that.<br>
<br>
Sophie: But I did. My boyfriend said I got gonorrhea from riding the tractor<br>
in my bathing suit.<br>
<br>
Jerry (walking out): Alright, that's it for me. You've been great. Goodnight<br>
everybody.<br>
<br>
<br>
New scene.<br>

Kruger is bouncing a ball against the wall and catching it. George is<br>
percolating.<br>
<br>
George: Would you mind helping me out with some of this stuff?!?<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: You seem like you've got a pretty good handle on it.<br>
<br>
George: No! I don't! Don't you even care? This is your company! It's your<br>
name on the outside of the building! Speaking of which, the 'R' fell off
and<br>
all it says now is K-uger!<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: K-uger, that sounds like one of those old-time car horns,
huh? <br>
K-uger! K-uger!<br>
<br>
George: Huh-ho! Oh! You are too much, Mr. Kruger! Too much!<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger (getting up to leave): Thank you George, you've been great.
That's<br>
it for me.<br>
<br>
George: Oh no, you're not going out on a high note with me Mr. Kruger!<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: It's K-uger!<br>
<br>
George: No! No!<br>
<br>
Mr. Kruger: Goodnight everybody!<br>
