  • The type size and spacing of Louise's obituary are both noticeably larger than the surrounding obituaries. edit »
  • This is the first of Julie Claire's two, unrelated appearances on Curb Your Enthusiasm. She can also be seen in season six's "The TiVo Guy". edit »
  • Jeff: How did she die?
    Larry: Killed herself.
    Jeff: No, she didn't!
    Larry: Killed herself—
    Jeff: Why?
    Larry: Why? Nobody knows, she didn't leave a note. That is so rude, isn't that?
    Jeff: That is really rude. edit »
  • Larry: I need a letter of apology from your friend.
    Jeff: Retraction, retraction!
    Larry: Retraction? What are they going to say? "We're sorry we called her a cunt, we meant 'aunt.'" edit »
  • Jeff: (reading obituary) "Devoted sister, beloved cunt." Oh, my God! This is unbelievable! edit »
  • Jeff: Do you know what 'Indian giving' is?
    Larry: Yes, I know what it's called. It's a very racist term, but I'm okay with it. edit »
  • Larry: Nobody likes to fly. I don't even like to drive. And I don't like walking. edit »
  • Larry stuffs food in his mouth and says "look what they did to my Santino," emulating Don Corleone in The Godfather. edit »
