I forgot how funny that episode was (guest starring Marlee Matlin)... I'd only seen it once before, and everytime a funny part came up, I was saying, "Damn, I forgot about this part!". My favorite parts were when Jerry and George were trying to hide what they were saying in the restaurant - great sequence. And the other one when Marlee Matlin smacks George in the face when she's talking to Kramer. Or how about the part where George is caught at the snack bar eating that banana split/sundae/whatever-it-was... only George could be caught doing something like that.

J: "That is the most beautiful lineswoman I've ever seen!" G: "Yeah, she's a B.L." J: "A B.L.?" G: "A Beautiful Lineswoman."

I had missed the episode the last time it was on. Boy, George and the bananna spilt--what a classic! And Kramer as the Ball boy, or should I say the first Ball Man.

But the funniest I have to say is when George tags along with Jerry and Marlee on their date. George discovers she can read lips and wants her at the party. It was hilarious how they talked with gestures that covered their mouths--George rubbing his eyes with his hands in his face, Jerry pretending to wipe his mouth with the napkin--- and yet she knew what they were saying!!

Me too.. first time I had seen it. Hilarious! George.. the eternal loser! Why does Jerry let him (george) talk him into going along w/ these things. (like using his new girlfriend to read lips for him.) And Marlee Matlin.. I didn't recognize her.. she looked beautiful! I hear the final season's episodes ends on a good note for george?

That WAS funny wasn't it. Heheh! But the best part was when she agrees to go to the party and Jerry is saying that he will pick her up.

J: How about six? M: <questioning look> J: Six is good! M: <looks at Jerry in a weird way> J: What's wrong with six? M: <And she get's out of the car>

Heheh! I think she MIGHT have misunderstood for something else. Hehehh! She must have misread his lips. That was hillarious. Or how about Elaine and that TAXI driver. That was really funny!

Final season's episodes? Is this the last season for Seinfeld or something or is that what's going to happen when the Seinfeld show comes to a close sometime in the next couple years? Don't scare me like that! :^) George seems to be a great manipulator in the show... at least he manipulates Jerry a lot. He often goes berserk if he doesn't get his way. Anyway, I loved it when they were in the restaurant with Marlee Matlin... I thought the way that George handled that whole scene where they were trying to conceal what they were talking about was fabulous... "It's a skill, just like juggling." Rubbing his eyes, stretching his arms, and eating the peanuts (or whatever those were) were done perfectly. The icing on the cake was when Marlee Matlin slapped George in the face at the party.

Of course, George has done things like this before... somewhat similar was the one where George gets Jerry to switch the answering machine tape in his girlfriend's apartment. How can you blame him after being called a wuss? :^)
