There was an episode where Kramer makes the statement... "Oh you may stray but you'll always return to your Dark Master..... The Cocoa Bean" Which episode was this in?

Thaqt would be The Secret Code from the 7th season. Kramer was trying to deduce George's atm password (Bosco) and he was squarely on the right path but strayed at the very end to fail.

It's from a scene in "The Secret Code" in which Kramer was trying to guess George's ATM password:

[George]: I am not giving you my code. [Kramer]: I'll bet I can guess it. [George]: Pssh. Yeah. Right. [Kramer]: Oh, alright. Yeah. Uh, let's see. Um, well, we can throw out birthdays immediately. That's too obvious. And no numbers for you, you're a word man. Alright, let's go deeper. Uh, what kind of man are you? Well, you're weak, spineless, a man of temptations, but what tempts you? [George]: Huh? [Kramer]: You're a portly fellow, a bit long in the waistband. So what's your pleasure? Is it the salty snacks you crave? No no no no no, yours is a sweet tooth. [George]: Get out of here. [Kramer]: Oh you may stray, but you'll always return to your dark master, the cocoa bean. [George]: I'm leaving. [Kramer] (building up steam as George bolts for the door): No, and only the purest syrup nectar can satisfy you! [George]: I gotta go. [Kramer]: If you could you'd guzzle it by the gallon! Ovaltine! Hershey's! [George]: Shut up! [Kramer]: Nestl�'s Quik! [George]: Shut up!

You can read the whole script here, at The News Guy (Mike)'s Seinfeld site: http://www.geocities.com/tnguym/scripts/TheSecretCode.html Of course, you'll need to know George's secret code to see the script. Hehe, nice touch, Mike! ;-)

And as the guy who wiled away the hours transcribing that particular episode, let me just thank you for validating my effort.
