Can someome tell me who was that guy at the end of the show? He sure looks familiar. Is he one of Elaine's ex-boyfriend?

Thanks, Katy

No, he wasn't an ex-boyfriend. He was the geek Elaine met on the subway from the "TV Guide" episode. Remember, he showed up at George's parent's home with a bouquet made from the shredded TV Guide.

That is really clever. Does anyone think that this will progress into something else in the show?

Concerning the TV Guide maniac at the end of the episode, I could see this scene coming from a mile away.

But I just knew it was gonna be Russell Dalrymple. I'm glad it was the nut, even funnier that way.

It makes more sense with the TV guide guy. Russel crudientials are too good to be working at a dummy designing factory.

I wonder if this will lead in to a certain guy from Greenpeace showing up
at Elaine's door.

That guy at the end of the show is the same guy that was hitting on Elaine in the subway in an earlier episode. He was the guy who was really obsessed with TV Guide and made her the TV guide 'bouquet'.

How awesome was that, with the guy at the end!?! I was on the floor laughing, and I was the only one in the room who recognized him. That could qualify as one of the alltime bests by a non-regular: "We've received many complaints about your model X522a." "Oh... I prefer to just call her... 'Elaine.'" !!! Awesome!

^^^^^^^^^^ Was that what he meant? What he said was, "tremendous response", and I thought it was supposed to be a positive one.

I thought the pie line was cute, the suit/mannequin tolerable. i noticed that no one mentioned the "scratch" line. i'd have to agree with the saliva theory- it couldn't have been the restaurant, for she came back for a slice. and what else could have put that look of disgust on her face? other that all the pie tie-ins, i was relieved to see less coincidences this week.

Maybe she saw something happen in the restaurant.  Maybe she heard from a
friend that the pastry chef in the place wasn't master of his domain while
in the restaurant, or that maybe the chef was sneaking a pick while cooking.
Hmmmmm?!?!!?
