Jerry buys a pink lining jacket, which he is forced to wear inside out in order to protect the suede, but big ol' Alton Benes stops him from making such a mockery. Meanwhile, Kramer is unimportant and George and Elaine are along for Jerry's ride.
Our Commentary
OCB and CCB were great. Kramer better in beginning and end, but bad in middle. Elaine gr8 as was her dad. George was perfect, especially during the price of the jacket bit with a ho ho at the end. Overall, George classic with "Oh, Shew Mann." Crowd gives a standing O for some reason when G imitates Alton. What's the deal with Jerry's stereo speakers on the floor and the full length mirror in the living room/den. Adam and I think it's a solid good ep
. Everyone is getting into character with Kramer being the slowest and George being the fastest of the bunch.
