Susan dies just before the wedding. George is too cheap to pay for first rate wedding preparations. One of his ways to save money is to buy cheap envelopes for the invitations. After Susan finishes doing the invitations and licking the glue on each envelope to seal it she collapes and is rushed to the hospital. They discover that the glue on the cheap envelopes is toxic and Susan dies of poisoning! George is secretly happy not to have to get married. He is saved due to his being cheap! Jerry meets a girl so like he is that he is convinced that she must be the ONE for him. SO , on an impulse he immediately proposes to her. Too late, he realizes his mistake and must try to get out of his committment. This should be quite an interesting episode.
Spoiler for finale
Susan dies from toxic glue on cheap envelopes before marrying George; Jerry proposes impulsively to a girl resembling him and tries to escape the commitment.
Fan predicts Susan dies from toxic envelope glue before the wedding, George is relieved, Jerry impulsively proposes to a girl like himself and regrets it.

Sorry, but the only question on my mind is "where did this information come from?" It doesn't sound at all like a Seinfeld plot. It is far too gruesome to have Susan die, and Seinfeld is crude, but never gruesome. I can't imagine George being "happy" about being "saved" if it means that someone dies. Jerry finding a girl, proposing on an impulse, and then trying to get out of it is exactly what happened to George, and Seinfeld is never that unoriginal.

Guess you won't be answering the phone at 1 900 TELEPSYCHIC anytime soon. If you look closely, you'll see that the couples Jerry was looking at on the pier were the same ones George saw before he proposed to Susan at the start of the season.
Maybe this idea is so unoriginal that it's original. Imagine the writers saying, "We'll have Jerry do exactly what George did, bring the season full circle that way." "Yeah, we can even use some of the same footage." "The network bean counters will love that." "Most people won't notice, and those that do will think we're being ultra-hip and arch."
Only, yeah, it wasn't that funny. Except when Jerry imagined he and Kramer as older men. "It's a stupid idea! Stupid! Stupid!"

Ahh...internet discussion. Lets not overanalyze. Obviously, the joke was that Jerry was going through the exact same thing George did. Right down to the scenes used. Do you people actually watch the show?

Congratulations, all of you who said that Larry David et al were grasping at straws...this episode proved you right. This is the most tasteless character death since L.A. Law (remember the ruthless she-monster lawyer who took over McKenzie Brackman, fell in love with and got engaged to Leland McKenzie, and then fell down an elevator shaft?). Sorry Kenny K., this season was the worst.
I was truly looking forward to a surprising and amusing way George would get out of it. Looks like that was too big a task for the writers, and they just had to kill Susan, and PRETEND it was amusing.
Why didn't George just go for the pick?
