I'm Norwegian and I speak English but sometimes I just don't get some of Seinfeld's jokes.I recently rewatched the 100th episode on video and there was this scene where Jerry dates a woman who's name rhymes with a female body part.And when Jerry says "Mulva" she gets really upset and leaves him.What does Mulva means?(I didn't find the translation in my dictionary) and what does it rhymes with?Can anybody explain it to me?

And one more thing.In the 100th episode there is a scene where George tells about how was he caught by his mother "doing it" and after that Jerry, Elaine, George and Cosmo bet who will be the first to "do it".Has anyone seen this episode?Who won?

'Mulva' was an attempt to create a name that rhymes with 'vulva' part of the female anatomy. It turns out her name was Deloris, to rhyme with clitoris.

Kramer gave up first, about the same day. I think Elain was next because of John F. Kennedy Jr. Then George and Jerry pretty much decided to heck with it. There was no clear winner.

"If you wish to drown, do not torture yourself with shallow water" -- Bulgarian proverb. Or was it the mission statement for the Windows95 team??

In "The Puffy Shirt", George refers to the "Contest" and says he won. Jerry, going to the window to look at his nudist neighbour, gives up before George

Well, at the end of the episode , everybody is sleeping well indicating everybody including george and jerry caved in......its only in the Puffy shirt episode we come to know it was actually george who won the contest ....but nobody knows if the "nudist neighbour" got to jerry first or someone else!

-chandra.

And George has never lied to get a job???? There are rumors that the contest never ended and the last show of the series will settle it. One scenerio is that the last line ever will be Jerry saying to George (about the contest) "do you give yet???

Um, "mulva" rhymes with a part of the female genitalia. In the real word, one letter is different. Examine any anatomy book for the details...

Ah yes, The contest. One of the greatest episodes!!!!! (You do know what "do it" means, right?)

That episode was called "THE CONTEST". This was one of my favorite episodes. George was caught by his mother pleasuring himself if you get my drift. (The M word) Anyway George, Jerry, Kramer and Elaine had this contest to see who can last the longest. Kramer was out right away. George won the contest. VERY FUNNY EPISODE. This episode won an EMMY for writing.

.What does Mulva means?(I didn't find the translation in my dictionary) and what does it rhymes with?Can anybody explain it to me?

The word hymes with Vulva. Also her first name is Delores which rhymes with Clitoris.

This episode was called the contest-this won an emmy here for best script the year it aired. It was abot how the 4 of them bet on who could hold out longest from masturbating. In the episode Elaine and Krmare clearly lose, Its not sure until a later episode who really won. You find out George won, when he screams " I won that contest". Jon B.
