Goofs
George (Jason Alexander) claims to have knocked Robin (Melanie Chartoff) over as he was trying to get out of the apartment, but Robin clearly runs in from the bathroom in a red jumper, obviously not knocked down by George.

Quotes

One of the best!

As funny now as it was 25 years ago. Two intersecting storylines that are as hilarious as anything in the history of sitcoms. Whoever wrote the scene where Kramer tells the bus/Cracker Jack/pinky toe story and Michael Richards need great recognition. And then, same episode, "Eric the clown"... perfect!
