Prostitutes?

After Mohamel's comment about The Stranded I got to thinking of the times Jerry, George and Kramer were in some way caught with prostitutes.

any takers?

I can remember at least three episodes:

1.  Remember the person from Long Island who Jerry didn't really care for,
but told he could drop by anytime?  Well he did drop by, but Jerry had to
do something, so Kramer entertained him.   Well they both decide to call
an "escort" service.   Jerry walks-in on them arguing over money.  Jerry
eventually pays her, but is caught by the cops.

2. Remember George found a cheap place that he could park his car, but then realized that the parking lot were using georges car to provide prostitution services. He got in an argument with one of the prostitutes, and George was later arrested by the cops.

3. Remember Jerry was sleeping with the maid. He tried to chase her to pay for her "services". In handing over the money, he was busted by the cops.

No, Kramer was the one who was arrested- he was caught pulling a prostitute out of his car, and the police thought he was a pimp because he was wearing the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

No one was arrested, but another mention of prostitutes occurs in "The Postponement", when the rabbi blabs on television that George wondered if going to a prostitute while you are engaged is considered cheating.

Right - That is the one I thought most people would forget. That is why I said 'caught' not 'arrested' here is my list. Are there more?

[The Stranded] - Jerry is paying the prostitute after his 'guest' leaves. [The Maid] - Jerry is paying the 'maid' from his car when a cop pulls up from behind. [The Wig Master] - George is paying a prostitute for information when Susan sees him. [The Wig Master] - Kramer, wearing the coat, fights with a prostitute when a cop catches him in the parking lot. [The Postponement] - George and Susan are watching the Rabbi spill the beans on TV.

I think this is an issue that is so connected to New York City culture it could not have been handled so candidly, and naturally, if the show were set in any other city. There are so many New York City connections in Seinfeld that the city is actually just another character in the show. This is one of the reasons I like Adam Sena's page so much. He is not just creating a travel guide of NYC but it explains the nature of the fifth central 'person' in the show. Could the episode [The Subway] have been done anywhere else? There were so many more like that.

Susan

when

It bugs me that I can't place the references but maybe this will jog someone's memory:

Elaine saying " What am I ....a Hooker!!!! "

This one is even vaguer (is that a word?) :

George to Jerry saying that doing .....blank.... is like going to a prostitute.."

The more vague quote from George to Jerry is regarding paying for parking...George's reasoning was, "Why should I pay, if I apply myself, I could get it for free?"

Was it when "He took it out?"

I think George said this to Elaine when they were returning from the Flea Market and he was going to park in front of Jerry's apartment in The Parking Space. (again this was without checking tapes) Elaine gives George a 'look'. Paying for parking was like going to a prostitute...his father never paid for it, his brother never paid for it... (pretty sure, but this is not confirmed.)

That line was when Kramer brought over the bag full of rubbers that Bob Sacamano gave him and offered a bunch to Elaine. She replied, "What am I a hooker?"

Sounds like Elaine has a stigma regarding condoms, much like George, as recently seen in "The Sponge". Given her comments in "The Beard", we would expect her case of sponges (60 count) to last a little over a year, which is in keeping with the typical crimped/stamped expiration dates of nonoxynol-9 spermicide birth control products.

One inconsistency does crop up later in "The Sponge", however, when Elaine deems her lover no longer sponge-worthy the morning after. From the recent Yahoo article on the revival of the sponge:

(http://dailynews.yahoo.com/headlines/ap/health/story.html?s=v/ap/19990310/hl/contraceptive_sponge_1.html):

"The only other woman-controlled nonprescription choices are spermicidal foams or suppositories and the female condom. Unlike those options, the sponge can be inserted up to 24 hours before sex and doesn't require repeat applications for repeated intercourse.

In The Fix Up Kramer offered Elaine a bunch of condoms so she says- what am I a hooker?

That was when Jerry proposed that he set George up with Elaine's friend. George: "I will not go down that road! .... That's just a step above personal ads and prostitutes!"

Later, he did resort to the personal ads, the ones from the communist paper; guess he becamse a little more desperate.

In " The Wig Master" George gets caught handing over money to a prostitute by Susan. Kramer gets arrested because he looked like a pimp with the technicolor Dreamcoat and the pink Cadillac.

Hello to all.

I'm new to this group, so I hope you don't mind me jumping in.

I recall the epsisode, I do not know the name, where Jerry is sleeping with his cleaning woman and gets caught paying in on the street. And the time George find the working girls in the lot where his car is parked.
