Does anyone know the significance of an ending to one of the episodes? I can't remember the name of the episode, but at the end of it, Jerry and Kramer are at the back of a bus, and Jerry puts his arm around Kramer and holds him ? What is that about ?
I'm probably missing something completely obvious.

That is an homage to the movie "The Graduate" with Dustin Hoffman. "The Graduate" ends the sam way with the hero, Hoffman, and his love interest in the back of a bus holding each other. Was this the episode with Kramer (I think) yelling, "Elaine!" outside of a church? Same scene was in "The Graduate" as well.

"The Graduate" does end with Hoffman and Katharine Ross on a bus but the Sienfeld episode is an homage to "Midnight Cowboy". "Midnight Cowboy" ends with Jon Voight (not John, the dentist, Voight)and a dying Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman) on a bus to Florida. "Midnight Cowboy" also co-stared Bob Balaban (Russell Dalrimple).
An all time movie classic, rent it NOW!!!

Boy that's an interesting bit of trivia -- Dalrimple was the guy who played the Warren Littlefield character in theseries of shows revolving around "The Pilot", right?
What part did he have in Midnight Cowboy? remove "nospam." from email
Aren't you a rock star or something? That *and* a Seinfeld fan? I'm impressed!

Yes, it was an homage -- not to "The Graduate" as someone else suggested, but to "Midnight Cowboy", at the end of which Dustin Hoffman (as Ratso Rizzo) dies in Jon Voight's arms on a bus to Florida. I can't remember for sure, but I think the "Seinfeld" episode may even have played "Everybody's Talkin'" -- a song from "Midnight Cowboy."
I thought it was more of Midnight Cowbow

You would be correct.
Definitely a play on "Midnight Cowboy" - check the music in the scene - it's the Nilsson song from the movie. I think it's called "Everybody Talking".

The scene in which you refer to, is a spoof on a scene from the movie midnight cowboy,which by the way is a great flic.

If it's the episode I'm thinking of, it has to do with the movie "Midnight Cowboy" starring Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight. That is why the song playing as the episode ends is "Everybody's Talking" by Nilsson, from the movie.
It most certainly was the movie "Midnight Cowboy" -- Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight were in it. The Graduate ends similarly, but the episode spoofed Midnight Cowboy. Paul Sobejko wrote in message ...
Krammer had a bloody nose, but they were playing it like he had something worse. There's probably a movie where someone with aids, or something, is sick and the movie ends with them sick in a bus with a friend. Paul Sobejko wrote in message ...
