Episode 12: The Red Dot

Episode #29; 3:12


Our Summary

A cashmere sweater with a tiny red dot on it is passed around from George to Elaine for thanking her for a job at Pendant, back to George after she finds out, to a cleaning lady at Pendant who has sex with Georgy Porgy, who gives it back to George b/c of the red dot, who gives it to Elaine's ex-boyfriend, who's drunk, whilst J, G, and E are hiding under his desk. Kramer pretty much unimportant.



Our Commentary

OCB decent, part of the show MCB good, and part of the show CCB nothing really. From the beginning of the ep with J and G argument over the statue of liberty we have LD at his best. Vandelay with a real Lippman at the helm, Marty, Jared, and Mike's favorite scene of all time in any tv show or movie, the Hennigan's scene; George with his Cashmere?, Of course it's cashmere, even saying it at the end when death is on the line. Classic LD and great acting by cleaning lady with "When I was a little girl" as well as a link to Gammy. Take a listen:

Everything linking together in LD fashion with a brilliant script, great acting, and great props. Just an awesome ep, worthy of the Top 50. Adam - Great episode.
