(Plot). A small failing restaurant brings out Jerry's sympathy, but when the owner, Babu Bhatt, takes his advice things go from bad to worse. Elaine helps George cheat on an IQ test but their caper backfires thanks to Kramer and his stolen jacket.

The Cafe is a fantastic episode, that's very, very funny, as I loved the character of Babu Bhatt!. One of the funniest scenes in this episode for me is when Kramer falls over his chair because of the hot steaming towel, and Jerry's stand up's were very funny in this one, plus it's very well written by Tom Leopold and directed by Tom Cherones. Brian George is absolutely hilarious as Babu Bhatt, and I thought the whole idea of George cheating on an IQ test and making Elaine do it was hilarious as well, plus it's extremely well made as well. The ending is hilarious, and I think this episode is really underrated as well, plus I loved Jerry's scenes when he's saying how great and kind he is in his head, as that was really funny. The Cafe is a fantastic episode, that's very, very funny, as I loved the character of Babu Bhatt!, and if you haven't seen it do so, if your a Seinfeld fan!. ***** out of 5 Favorite quotes.

(Jerry noticing no one going into Babu's place). Jerry: He's serving Mexican, Italian,Chinese, he's all over the place, that's why no one's going in. Elaine: Why do you keep watching?!. Jerry: I don't know I'm obsessed with it, it's like a Spider, in the toilet struggling for survival, and even though you know he's not gonna make it, you kinda root for him for a second. Elaine: Then you flush. Jerry: Well it's a spider.
