<p>At the Comedy Club.</p>
<p>Jerry: You know doctor is supposed to be such a prestigious occupation.
But </p>
<p>it&#146;s really like one of the only jobs where you have to have
your diploma </p>
<p>right up there on the wall. It makes them seem so insecure, doesn&#146;t
it? &quot;I </p>
<p>really am a doctor you know. You think I&#146;m not, just check
it out.&quot; I don&#146;t </p>
<p>know why they need these little bits of psychological leverage
over us all the </p>
<p>time. &quot;Go in that little room, take your pants off, wait 15
minutes, and I&#146;ll </p>
<p>give you my opinion.&quot; After that, anyone that comes in with
pants on seems </p>
<p>like they know what they&#146;re talking about. In any difference
of opinion, </p>
<p>pants always beats no-pants.</p>
<p>(Commercial)</p>
<p>At a restaurant.</p>
<p>George: Can I say one word to you? Lobster. The lobster here is
</p>
<p>unbelievable. (looks at the menu) Ooh, a little expensive. </p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend (name?): Twenty five dollars.</p>
<p>George: Yes, well, you know, I&#146;m not thinking about the price.
You know </p>
<p>you&#146;re the only woman I&#146;ve never thought about the price.
Get the lobster. I </p>
<p>beg you to get the lobster. Go for the lobster.</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: George, George, uh, I think we have to
talk. I think we </p>
<p>have a problem. </p>
<p>George: We do?</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: We can&#146;t keep seeing each other.</p>
<p>George: Why?</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: (crying) Because it&#146;s over. *sob,
sob, sob* It&#146;s my </p>
<p>parents, the differences in our religion. Oh George, can you ever
forgive me? </p>
<p>*sob*</p>
<p>Waiter: Uh, have you decided yet?</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: (crying) Yes. I&#146;ll have the lobster.</p>
<p>George: Um, you know I&#146;m starting to think that maybe lobster
isn&#146;t the way </p>
<p>to go.</p>
<p>The hallway outside Jerry&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry: Then he asked you out?</p>
<p>Elaine: We started to talk, and I told him that I jog, and then
he put his </p>
<p>hand on my heart.</p>
<p>Jerry: On your heart?</p>
<p>Elaine: Jerry, the man is a doctor.</p>
<p>Jerry: Doctor? He&#146;s a podiatrist.</p>
<p>Elaine: It&#146;s the same thing.</p>
<p>Jerry: Anyone can get into podiatry school. *George* got into podiatry
</p>
<p>school.</p>
<p>Elaine: Really?</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend (name?): Hello.</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh hi.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: Are you going to be stopping by later?</p>
<p>Jerry: Yes, I&#146;ll be stopping. See you later. (to Elaine) Well
we can&#146;t all </p>
<p>be dating podiatrists.</p>
<p>They enter Jerry&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>George: It&#146;s over.</p>
<p>Elaine: What?</p>
<p>Jerry: How did you get in?</p>
<p>George: Kramer.</p>
<p>Elaine: What&#146;s that?</p>
<p>George: Lobster.</p>
<p>Jerry: Looks like a swan.</p>
<p>George: She says we can&#146;t go out anymore.</p>
<p>Elaine: Why?</p>
<p>George: Because I&#146;m not Latvian Orthodox. Her parents won&#146;t
let her get </p>
<p>involved with anyone who isn&#146;t Latvian Orthodox.</p>
<p>Elaine: Latvian Orthodox? Mmm, it is lobster.</p>
<p>Jerry: She&#146;s limiting herself to Latvian Orthodox? Too bad.</p>
<p>George: I know. This was the only woman I never lied to. Well that&#146;s
not </p>
<p>entirely true.</p>
<p>Elaine: Mmm, delicious.</p>
<p>Jerry: Mmm, succulent.</p>
<p>George: She knew I didn&#146;t have a job, she knew I lived at
home. Didn&#146;t seem </p>
<p>to bother her. I think I could have married this woman.</p>
<p>Elaine: Why don&#146;t you just ask her parents?</p>
<p>George: I can&#146;t. I met them. They&#146;re devout. You know,
In the cab on the </p>
<p>way over here, I actually thought about converting.</p>
<p>Jerry: To Latvian Orthodox?</p>
<p>George: Why not? What do I care?</p>
<p>Jerry: You know it&#146;s not like changing toothpaste.</p>
<p>Elaine: I think it would be romantic.</p>
<p>George: Really?</p>
<p>Elaine: Yeah, it&#146;s like Edward the Eighth abdicating the throne
and marrying </p>
<p>Mrs. Simpson. Ooh.</p>
<p>George: King Edward. King Edward, Jerry.</p>
<p>Jerry: Yeah well King Edward didn&#146;t live in Queens with Frank
and Estelle </p>
<p>Costanza.</p>
<p>George: You know what? I could probably do this. What&#146;s the
difference.</p>
<p>Elaine: George I was just kidding around.</p>
<p>George: No. I wouldn&#146;t even have to tell her. I could surprise
her.</p>
<p>Elaine: George I wasn&#146;t serious.</p>
<p>George: How hard could it be? You make a little contribution, have
a </p>
<p>ceremony. I am going to think about this. I am *really* going to
think about </p>
<p>this.</p>
<p>George leaves.</p>
<p>Elaine: I guess this one is my fault.</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh yeah.</p>
<p>At Jerry&#146;s girlfriend&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: *kiss, kiss, kiss* Oh that was nice. Have
you always </p>
<p>been such a good kisser?</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh I don&#146;t know. Not always. No I uh I had to work
at it. When I </p>
<p>was a kid all the kids would be out playing, I would be up in my
room </p>
<p>practicing my kissing.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: Well it was worth it. *kiss* I&#146;ll
be *kiss* right *kiss* </p>
<p>back *kiss*. Where are you going?</p>
<p>Jerry: To wash my hands. They&#146;re sticky from the orange. </p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: Meet you back here?</p>
<p>Jerry: Right there.</p>
<p>Jerry goes into the bathroom and washes his hands.</p>
<p>He sees the medicine cabinet open slightly and peeks in.</p>
<p>Jerry: (thinking to himself) &quot;Fungicide&quot;. Fungus?</p>
<p>At Monk&#146;s.</p>
<p>Jerry: Fungicide. I mean what could she have?</p>
<p>Elaine: I don&#146;t know.</p>
<p>Kramer: Fungus.</p>
<p>Elaine: So what did you say?</p>
<p>Jerry: I said I was coming down with the flu or something and I
had to go </p>
<p>home.</p>
<p>Elaine: What were you doing opening her medicine cabinet?</p>
<p>Jerry: I didn&#146;t open it. It was open. I just nudged it a little.</p>
<p>Elaine: You were snooping.</p>
<p>Jerry: I was not snooping. I did not break the seal. There was
no breaking </p>
<p>and entering. I wouldn&#146;t do that.</p>
<p>Kramer: I would. I always open medicine cabinets.</p>
<p>Elaine: Well I trust people not to do that.</p>
<p>Kramer: Big mistake.</p>
<p>Jerry: Why don&#146;t you ask that doctor what it is?</p>
<p>Elaine: What? Now he&#146;s a doctor? Before he was a podiatrist.</p>
<p>Jerry: But that&#146;s what podiatrists do. They deal in fungus.
They&#146;re knee-</p>
<p>deep in fungus. This guy know fungus.</p>
<p>Elaine: I am not going to ask him about funguses.</p>
<p>Kramer: Fungi.</p>
<p>Jerry: What?</p>
<p>Kramer: Fungi.</p>

<p>In the priest&#146;s office.</p>
<p>[boy, I am *really* bad with names on this episode&#133; ;) ]</p>
<p>Father-priest (name?): Why do you want to accept the Latvian Orthodox
faith?</p>
<p>George: *ahem* In this age of uncertainty and confusion, a man
begins to ask </p>
<p>himself certain questions. How can one even begin to put into words
something </p>
<p>so um&#133; (trying to think of a word)</p>
<p>Father-priest: Enigmatic?</p>
<p>George: No.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Vast? (he pronounces it as &quot;vost&quot;)</p>
<p>George: No not vast (he pronounces it as &quot;vost&quot;)</p>
<p>Father-priest: Well whatever it is, basically you like the religion.</p>
<p>George: Yes.</p>
<p>Father-priest 2: Is there one aspect of the faith that you find
particularly </p>
<p>attractive?</p>
<p>George: (he thinks) I think the hats. The hat convey that solemn
religious </p>
<p>look you want in a faith. Very pious.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Are you familiar with Orthodox theology?</p>
<p>George: Well perhaps, not to the extent that you are. But I know
the basic </p>
<p>plot. Yeah.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Plot?</p>
<p>George: Yeah, yeah. You know the uh flood, and the uh lepers, and
the </p>
<p>commandments and all that.</p>
<p>Father-priest 2: Well it&#146;s obvious that you are sincere in
your desire.</p>
<p>George: Oh yes I am Father. Incredibly sincere. So, uh, pffft,
am I in?</p>
<p>Father-priest: The first step would be to familiarize yourself
with these </p>
<p>texts (brings out a pile of books).</p>
<p>George: Ah hah. You see Father, I&#146;m I&#146;m incredibly anxious
to become a </p>
<p>member. Um, don&#146;t you offer any kind of an express conversion?
A quick </p>
<p>change?</p>
<p>Sister Roberta enters.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Oh I&#146;m sorry. Father, there&#146;s a man waiting
in the chapel.</p>
<p>Father-priest: You may attend to it Sister, oh this is George Costanza.
He </p>
<p>is interested in joining the church.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Oh are you? That&#146;s wonderful. Well good luck
to you.</p>
<p>George: Nice nun.</p>
<p>Father-priest: No, Sister Roberta is not a nun. She is what we
call a </p>
<p>novice.</p>
<p>Father-priest 2: She won&#146;t be taking her final vows until
next Thursday.</p>
<p>In the chapel.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: May I help you?</p>
<p>Kramer: Oh yeah, I&#146;m here to pick up my friend George Costanza.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Well he&#146;s in with the Father.</p>
<p>Kramer: Oh yeah.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: I&#146;m Sister Roberta.</p>
<p>Kramer: Oh. Kramer. Pleasure.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Mine. (she smiles at Kramer)</p>
<p>At Jerry&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>George: I can&#146;t believe how easy it is. I&#146;m virtually
Orthodox. All I have </p>
<p>to do is read a few books, memorize a few prayers, and I&#146;m
in the club. </p>
<p>Jerry: That&#146;s all there is to it.</p>
<p>George: That&#146;s all there is to it. By Christmas day I will
be Brother </p>
<p>Costanza.</p>
<p>Jerry: And when is Brother Costanza planning on telling Mother
Costanza?</p>
<p>George: Brother Costanza will be taking the vow of silence.</p>
<p>Kramer enters. He is flinging a slinky.</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh a slinky. Where did you get it?</p>
<p>Kramer: Sister Roberta gave it to me.</p>
<p>Jerry: Why did she give you that?</p>
<p>Kramer: I think she liked me.</p>
<p>Jerry: What do you mean she liked you?</p>
<p>Kramer: *Liked* me.</p>
<p>George: Kramer, they like everybody. They&#146;re friendly people.</p>
<p>Kramer: No. I think I picked up on a vibe.</p>
<p>Jerry: You picked up on a vibe, from a nun.</p>
<p>Kramer: Yeah, Jerry I&#146;m telling you I have this power. And
I have no control </p>
<p>over it.</p>
<p>Kramer leaves.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend appears at the doorway.</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh hi.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: I just wanted to stop by and see how you
were feeling.</p>
<p>Jerry: (weakly) A little better. *fake cough*</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: If you need anything let me know.</p>
<p>Jerry: Okay. All right bye.</p>
<p>George: Story.</p>
<p>Jerry: She&#146;s subletting Carol&#146;s place for a month.</p>
<p>George: She likes you.</p>
<p>Jerry: Yeah but there&#146;s a problem. I found a tube of a fungicide
in her </p>
<p>medicine cabinet.</p>
<p>George: So?</p>
<p>Jerry: So I don&#146;t know what she&#146;s using it for.</p>
<p>George: Well how do you even know it&#146;s hers? Maybe it belonged
to Carol. </p>
<p>Did you see a name on the tube?</p>
<p>Jerry: I didn&#146;t even think to look.</p>
<p>George: Well take a look. It might not even belong to her.</p>
<p>Jerry: Yeah.</p>
<p>George: People always leave old things in their medicine cabinet.</p>
<p>Jerry: Yeah I&#146;ve got this old bottle of cough medicine.</p>
<p>George: I still have brill cream.</p>
<p>At Jerry&#146;s girlfriend&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry knocks on the door</p>
<p>*knock, knock, knock*</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: Hi.</p>
<p>Jerry: Hi. Can I use your bathroom?</p>
<p>At the doctor&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Elaine: You sure you don&#146;t mind?</p>
<p>Doctor (name?): No of course not. People ask me medical questions
all the </p>
<p>time.</p>
<p>Elaine: Well the question isn&#146;t even for me it&#146;s for
a friend.</p>
<p>Doctor: Elaine, I&#146;m used to it. I&#146;m a doctor.</p>
<p>Elaine: Well&#133; podiatrist.</p>
<p>Doctor: Huh?</p>
<p>Elaine: No no, I&#146;m just saying you didn&#146;t really go to
medical school, you </p>
<p>went to podiatry school. Which I&#146;m sure is very grueling in
it&#146;s own way.</p>
<p>Doctor: I went to podiatry school because I like feet. I chose
to work with </p>
<p>feet.</p>
<p>Elaine: I like feet too. I&#146;m just saying&#133;</p>
<p>Doctor: Saying what?</p>
<p>In Jerry&#146;s girlfriend&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>She knocks on the bathroom door.</p>
<p>*knock, knock, knock*</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: How are you doing in there?</p>
<p>Jerry: Fine all done, just looking for the soap.</p>
<p>Jerry is looking around for the bottle of fungicide.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: No soap?</p>
<p>Jerry: No I don&#146;t see it.</p>
<p>Jerry finds the bottle of fungicide and picks it up. Jerry&#146;s
girlfriend </p>
<p>enters the bathroom with soap. Hastily, Jerry puts the bottle of
fungicide in </p>
<p>his pocket.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: (giving Jerry the soap) Here you go.</p>
<p>At George&#146;s parent&#146;s house.</p>
<p>George is in the bathroom with his Latvian Orthodox books.</p>
<p>*knock, knock, knock*</p>
<p>Estelle: George what are you doing in there?</p>
<p>George: What? Nothing.</p>
<p>Frank: You&#146;ve been in there an hour.</p>
<p>Estelle: You don&#146;t feel well?</p>
<p>George: I&#146;m fine.</p>
<p>Estelle: I want to know what you&#146;re doing in there.</p>
<p>George: Nothing.</p>
<p>Frank: George, open the door.</p>
<p>George: No.</p>
<p>Estelle: Georgie.</p>
<p>George: No!</p>
<p>At Kramer&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta is knocking on the door.</p>
<p>*knock, knock, knock*</p>
<p>Kramer: Hey.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Good evening. I hope I&#146;m not disturbing you,
but I found </p>
<p>another toy I thought you might like.</p>
<p>(Commercial)</p>
<p>At Jerry&#146;s Apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry: Okay, Latvius was the son of which apostle? And I&#146;ll
need that in the </p>
<p>form of a question.</p>
<p>George: I don&#146;t know. I can&#146;t believe they&#146;re making
me take this test.</p>
<p>Elaine enters.</p>
<p>Jerry: Hey, did you talk to the doctor?</p>
<p>Elaine: No.</p>
<p>Jerry: All right, the next time you see him show him this. (He
presents the </p>
<p>bottle of fungicide.)</p>
<p>Elaine: You *took* her medicine.</p>
<p>Jerry: Not on purpose. I was hoping there would be a name on the
tube. When </p>
<p>are you seeing him again?</p>
<p>Elaine: I don&#146;t know. We got into this whole thing about how
podiatrists </p>
<p>aren&#146;t real doctors.</p>
<p>Jerry: How could you say that?</p>
<p>Elaine: It&#146;s you fault. You just got me thinking.</p>
<p>Jerry: I was merely speaking extemporaneously.</p>
<p>Elaine: I&#146;ve got nothing against the foot. I&#146;m pro-foot.</p>
<p>Jerry: Me too.</p>
<p>Elaine: Do you think I should call him and apologize?</p>
<p>Jerry: Yes. He&#146;s a doctor.</p>
<p>Elaine starts to leave.</p>
<!-- BeginAd02 --><!-- EndAd -->
<p>Jerry: Wait a second.</p>
<p>Jerry puts the bottle of fungicide in Elaine&#146;s purse.</p>
<p>Jerry: (to George) What are you doing?</p>
<p>George: What does it look like I&#146;m doing?</p>
<p>Jerry: (Reading words George wrote on his hand) &quot;Matthew,
Luke, Paul&quot;, what </p>
<p>you&#146;re cheating on your conversion chest?</p>
<p>Kramer enters.</p>
<p>Kramer: I told you.</p>
<p>Jerry: What?</p>
<p>Kramer: I told you she liked me.</p>
<p>Jerry: Who?</p>
<p>Kramer: Sister Roberta.</p>
<p>Jerry: How do you know?</p>
<p>Kramer: She told me. She said she&#146;s never had a man stir up
all of these </p>
<p>feelings inside of her. She&#146;s questioning her faith. She&#146;s
thinking of </p>
<p>leaving the church. Oh, uh, this power. I&#146;m dangerous Jerry,
I&#146;m very very </p>
<p>dangerous.</p>
<p>At the priest&#146;s office.</p>
<p>Father-priest: I must say George, I was somewhat surprised at the
results of </p>
<p>your conversion test. I don&#146;t recall having seen such an impressive
</p>
<p>performance. You truly must be filled with the spirit of the Lord.</p>
<p>George: Oh, I&#146;m I&#146;m full of it Father.</p>
<p>Father-priest 2: (muttering something to Father-Priest 1) &#133;(mumble)&#133;
Kramer </p>
<p>&#133;(mumble)&#133;</p>
<p>Father-priest: Yes, yes I see. (To George) I&#146;m sorry something
has come up.</p>
<p>George: Oh, I understand.</p>
<p>Kramer enters.</p>
<p>Kramer: Um, you wanted to see me Father?</p>
<p>Father-priest: Yes. Please, sit down. Sister Roberta came to see
me </p>
<p>yesterday.</p>
<p>Kramer: I know what this is about Father. I didn&#146;t do anything.
I just </p>
<p>spoke to her innocently for just a few minutes. It&#146;s just
that, that I have </p>
<p>this power.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Yes. Kavorka.</p>
<p>[I wouldn&#146;t mind having &quot;Kavorka&quot; myself ;) ]</p>
<p>Kramer: Kavorka?</p>
<p>Father-priest: It is a Latvian word which means &quot;the lure
of the animal&quot;.</p>
<p>Kramer: I don&#146;t understand.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Women are drawn to you. They would give anything
to be </p>
<p>possessed by you.</p>
<p>Kramer: Help me Father. Help me.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Yes, yes I will help you. Listen very carefully.
I want you </p>
<p>to buy ten cloves of garlic, three quarts of vinegar, six ounces&#133;</p>
<p>The hallway by Jerry&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry: What is that stench? I got it. (He follows the smell to
Kramer&#146;s </p>
<p>door) Ah hah.</p>
<p>*knock, knock, knock*</p>
<p>Kramer opens his door. He is wearing a ring of garlics around his
neck.</p>
<p>Kramer: Hey.</p>
<p>Jerry: Hey. What are you doing?</p>
<p>Kramer: I&#146;ve got the Kavorka Jerry.</p>
<p>Jerry: The Kavorka? What&#146;s that?</p>
<p>Kramer: The lure of the animal. I&#146;m dangerous.</p>
<p>Jerry: What is this thing around your neck?</p>
<p>Kramer: The priests they&#146;re helping me. I just bathed in vinegar.</p>
<p>Jerry: You know you&#146;re funcifying the whole building.</p>
<p>Kramer: Keep away Jerry. Keep away.</p>
<p>He closes his door.</p>
<p>Jerry: Kramer. *knock, knock, knock* Kramer.</p>
<p>At the entrance of the church. There is a sign there. It reads:</p>
<p>+---------------------+</p>
<p>| CONVERSION CEREMONY |</p>
<p>| FOR |</p>
<p>| GEORGE COSTANZA |</p>
<p>| 3:P.M. |</p>
<p>| |</p>
<p>| |</p>
<p>| |</p>
<p>+---------------------+</p>
<p>The sign is on a black background with white stick-on letters.</p>
<p>A woman reads the sign.</p>
<p>Woman: George Costanza? Estelle&#146;s son?</p>
<p>At George&#146;s parent&#146;s house.</p>
<p>Estelle: Latvian Orthodox? Why are you doing this?</p>
<p>George: For a woman.</p>
<p>Frank: A woman? What are you out of your mind?</p>
<p>Estelle: Why can&#146;t you do anything like a normal person?</p>
<p>Frank: Wait. Is this the group that goes around mutilating squirrels?</p>
<p>George: No it&#146;s a regular religion.</p>
<p>Frank: I&#146;m calling my lawyer. It might not be too late to
get out of this.</p>
<p>George: I don&#146;t want to get out of it.</p>
<p>Estelle: George, you don&#146;t know what you&#146;re saying. You&#146;re
under their </p>
<p>control.</p>
<p>Frank: What, they brainwashed you?</p>
<p>George: No no.</p>
<p>Frank: You&#146;re not performing any rituals in this house.</p>
<p>Estelle: Go back to the psychiatrist. I beg you.</p>
<p>Frank: And stay away from those squirrels.</p>
<p>At Jerry&#146;s girlfriend&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: Oh how you doing Jerry?</p>
<p>Jerry: Good. What&#146;s the matter?</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: I&#146;m tired. I hardly slept last night
with all this </p>
<p>scratching. Bonkers was going crazy.</p>
<p>Jerry: Bonkers?</p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: My cat. He&#146;s got this weird sort
of skin condition. </p>
<p>Some type of fungus, I couldn&#146;t find his medicine.</p>
<p>Jerry: Oh it&#146;s your cat! </p>
<p>Jerry&#146;s girlfriend: What?</p>
<p>Jerry: Ooh, nothing.</p>
<p>At the church.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Are you ready my son?</p>
<p>George: Yes faddah.</p>
<p>Father-priest: What did you say?</p>
<p>George: What?</p>
<p>Father-priest: I thought you said faddah.</p>
<p>George: I said faddah, I meant Father. Just a little bit nervous.</p>
<p>Outside on a sidewalk.</p>
<p>A woman is waiting for a cab. Kramer walks up to her.</p>
<p>Kramer: How you doing?</p>
<p>Woman: Get away from me you creep. (She walks away.)</p>
<p>Kramer: Yes, Yes. It worked. Sister Roberta I&#146;ve still got
time to catch </p>
<p>her.</p>
<p>At the church. It is George&#146;s conversion ceremony.</p>
<p>Church music plays.</p>
<p>George is dressed in a white church gown.</p>
<p>He walks down the church aisle carrying a candle.</p>
<p>Father-priest says some Latvian words.</p>
<p>Kramer is running down the street going to the church.</p>
<p>The church music is still playing.</p>
<p>George takes a drink of some wine. He spills some on his gown.
He makes a </p>
<p>hand motion on his gown.</p>
<p>Kramer is still running to the church.</p>
<p>The church music is still playing.</p>
<p>Father-priest: Congratulations George. Welcome to the faith. Sister
Roberta </p>
<p>would you please offer the final benediction.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: (hesitates) I can&#146;t. (crowd murmurs) I&#146;m
sorry. It&#146;s a </p>
<p>beautiful religion, but I am not worthy of it. I found something
else.</p>
<p>Kramer enters the church.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Him.</p>
<p>Crowd: Kavorka, Kavorka.</p>
<p>At Elaine&#146;s apartment.</p>
<p>Elaine: *kiss, kiss* Because I love the foot. I&#146;m a big fan
of the foot.</p>
<p>Doctor: Well it&#146;s my fault. I got a little defensive.</p>
<p>Elaine: And that pinkie toe, come on . How adorable is the pinkie
toe.</p>
<p>Doctor: It&#146;s my favorite toe.</p>
<p>Elaine: Let&#146;s face it, you get a bunion, where are you going?
You&#146;re not </p>
<p>going to the ear guy.</p>
<p>Doctor: No you&#146;re not.</p>
<p>*phone rings*</p>
<p>Elaine: I&#146;ll be right back.</p>
<p>Doctor: Oh uh, where&#146;s the bathroom?</p>
<p>Elaine: It&#146;s right down here to the left. I will meet you
right back here.</p>
<p>Jerry: Elaine it&#146;s her cat. Her cat had the fungus. So I need
the tube </p>
<p>back.</p>
<p>The doctor is in Elaine&#146;s bathroom.</p>
<p>He peeks into the medicine cabinet and finds the tube of fungicide.</p>
<p>Doctor: (Thinking to himself) &quot;Fungicide&quot;? Fungus?</p>
<p>At the church.</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: Something&#146;s wrong. I don&#146;t feel the same
lure.</p>
<p>Kramer: You don&#146;t?</p>
<p>Sister Roberta: What have I&#133;? I must return to the church.
By the way you </p>
<p>really need to take a bath. You stink.</p>
<p>Kramer: Yeah yeah.</p>
<p>(Commercial)</p>
<p>At Monk&#146;s</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: For me?</p>
<p>George: Well I didn&#146;t do it for my mother.</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: I&#146;m really flattered. But I just
don&#146;t feel ready to </p>
<p>make a commitment yet. Maybe when I get back from Latvia.</p>
<p>George: Latvia?</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: Yes. I&#146;m going to stay with some
relatives there for a </p>
<p>year. Isn&#146;t it great?</p>
<p>George: Enjoy, enjoy.</p>
<p>George&#146;s girlfriend: Oh George, you are so sweet. Don&#146;t
ever change.</p>
<p>George: I&#146;d like a doggie bag for this please.</p>
