    Well well, this episode may have nothing special, but Kramer is the man. I cant believe a character so ordinary can turn into something important for the show. I mean, the fact that he doesnt have a job fits perfectly in the answer he gives Jerry when he asks when he did the fusilli Jerry. When did you do it? "In my spare time", come on!!! He has all the time in the world! And then the best... He turns to George and says that hes working on one for him and hes using ravioli!!! Oh my God. I hadnt laughed so much and so hard in a long time. This is the best thing to watch before going to bed.

    • Technically, Puddy wasn't using Jerry's "move" at all. When confronted he tells Jerry that he'd been doing the move before he even met Jerry -- that all Jerry added was "the swirl". Jerry doesn't dispute that and adds that "the swirl" is the whole thing. If Puddy does a "pinch" at the end, then Jerry contributed nothing. It is of additional interest that Elaine couldn't have thought much of the move since as we learn in "The Mango" (Season 5) Elaine never had an orgasm while going with Jerry. Edit
    • Earlier in the episode, Frank stops in to get his mail, and Estelle brags that Kramer made a pass at her. She tells him to take his mail and go home, implying that he is staying elsewhere. However, at the end of the episode, after Frank leaves the proctologist's office, George brings him back to the house, and Estelle starts raving about how worried she was that he hadn't come home yet. NOTE: When Frank arrives, Estelle says, "Where have you been, you were supposed to fix the stove!" In other words, he has not "come home", he is only there for that one purpose. Edit
    • At the start of the episode, Jerry comments that David Puddy is his friend, and should have asked Jerry's permission before asking Elaine out. However, throughout the rest of the series there is no evidence that Jerry and Puddy are friends. It seems that they only know each other casually through Elaine. Edit

    • Jerry: You know what a good mechanic is worth? You can't compare that to sex. Edit
    • Kramer: Have you ever met a proctologist? They usually have a very good sense of humor. You meet a proctologist at a party, don't walk away. Plant yourself there because you will hear the funniest stories you've ever heard. See, no one wants to admit to them that they stuck something up there. Never. It's always an accident. Every proctologist story ends in the same way… 'It was a million to one shot, doc, million to one.' Edit
    • Kramer: It's Fusilli Jerry! It's made from fusilli pasta. See the microphone? Jerry: When did you do this? Kramer: In my spare time. You know, I'm working on one of you George. I'm using ravioli. See, the hard part is to find a pasta that captures the individual. Jerry: Why fusilli? Kramer: Because you're silly. Get it? Edit

    • Elaine: All those mechanics do is work all day with their hands and their big muscular arms on machines, and then they come home dripping with animal sexuality like Stanley Kowalski. This is an allusion to Stanley Kowalski, the character in Tennessee William's play "A Streetcar Named Desire." He was most famously portrayed by Marlon Brando in the 1951 film adaptation. Edit
