Fans praise the episode's George comeback plotline, Elaine's Vincent rental store subplot, and Kramer's living will bit, with discussion of an attractive guest actress.

This was a really good episode! The whole thing with Elaine and Vincent was a hoot, George's fixation with 'the comeback' made me laugh out loud, the whole plug-pulling bit was pure Kramer, and the bad tennis player's wife has to be the most attractive female bit character I've seen on 'Seinfeld' yet! I certainly hope she becomes as famous post-Seinfeld as Jane Leeves and Teri Hatcher have! Probably not, but one can hope! (What was the actress's name, anyway?)

Comments on this episode? Good, bad?

Quoth Darlene Scott :

The Vincent plot, as a takeoff on the old "Beauty and the Beast" series, wasn't bad.

I missed last night's (1/30) episode. I misprogrammed my VCR and recorded CBS instead! Can anyone tell me what happened? Thanks!

Hmmm....

George is ridiculed at the office--George wants to get even...but always thinks of a line too late. " George, the ocean called...the're running out of shrimp"

Elaine is renting movies reccomened by "Vincent" at the Tape Store ( but is never seen by Elaine--well, almost never ).

Kramer, while watching a movie about a woman in a coma, decides to draw up a living will so someone can pull the plug on him. ( but then realizes, after seeing the end of the movie, that sometimes people come out of comas ).

Jerry is taken in by a tennis Pro Shop Guy into buying a $200 tennis racquet. seems the guy who reccomened it.. "its the raquet he plays with" ... can't play tennis to save his life..

should I elaborate...???

It Shrinks...???

Good summary!!!

I would also add that the "Vincent" sub-plot with Elaine was a definitive send-up of the TV show, "Beauty And The Beast." Having Vincent, the sensitive, dulcet-toned, mysterious "creature of the night" with whom the incurably romantic Elaine "falls in love," turn out to be a pimply 15-year-old nerd living with his mother was a stroke of genius! I loved the shot of Elaine dropping all the groceries she bought at his door, and walking away with the bottle of vodka swinging in her hand! :-)

Also hilarious was Milos' taunting of Jerry while Jerry is intentionally playing tennis badly so Milos can impress his wife. Kinda reminded me of the French knight taunting King Arthur and his knights in "Monty Python & The Holy Grail."

Great show: all 4 subplots were great: George and the Zingers, only George could pull that off! Elaine and "Vincent Jerry and Milosh Kramer and the plug,typical Kramer
