Question

Fans discuss the mannequin maker in 'The Pie' and debate whether he's the same actor who appeared in another episode, with questions about George's clothing in bathroom scenes.

In the episode "The Pie", the one where there is a store mannequin that looks like Elaine, they briefly show the person who designed the mannequin. Does anyone know if he appeared in any other episode? Is he the same person who mutilates Frank Costanza's TV guide, and has a crush on Elaine?

Also, the time when George runs off the toilet yelling "Say Vandelay, say Vandelay", does anyone remember if he was wearing a shirt? I think he was. In "The Gymnast" George he says that he always takes off his shirt while going to the bathroom. Cheers, Howard

I believe it is the same character as I immediately thought the same...

Yes. That episode was before the mannequin episode. I'm wondering where else I've seen that actor. He was so good in that role, though.

So do I.

Maybe it was a new habit..?

Yes. That was Ricky. He was infatuated with Elaine on the subway. Later he designs the mannequin which he calls 'Elaine'.

He was wearing his shirt. This is sort of an inconsistancy, because we've seen George go into a bathroom many times, sometimes for only a minute, not nearly enough time to remove the shirt, take care of business, then put the shirt on again. Maaaaybe if it's a t-shirt, but George often wears shirts with buttons and collars. And the few times we've seen him rush out of the bathroom, he always has the shirt on. All except for that one episode.
