82."The Raincoats (Part I)" (April 28, 1994)
SUMMARY While waiting to leave for Paris, Jerry's parents are staying with him, which prevents Jerry from spending some private time with his girlfriend. George is talked into being a Big Brother, then tries to get out of it. The Seinfelds avoid the Costanzas' dinner invitation. Elaine's latest boyfriend is a close-talker.
