- AnecdotesJerry's (Jerry Seinfeld) line, "And you want to be my latex salesman," was ad-libbed.
- GaffesKramer and Newman claim to have been a spat on by Keith Hernandez on June 14, 1987, when the Mets lost to the Phillies. The Mets lost to the Phillies at home only once in 1987, and it was a 5-3 loss on September 7th. On the date in question, the Mets beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-3. Hernandez actually played well in the game, hitting a home run and an RBI double while fielding at first base without errors.

George Costanza: [George rushes into Jerry's apartment] Did anybody call here asking for Vandelay Industries?
Jerry: No, what happened to you?
George Costanza: All right, listen closely, I was at the unemployment office and I told them I was very close to getting a job with Vandelay Industries, and I gave them your phone number. So now, when the phone rings, you have to answer "Vandelay Industries".
Jerry: I'm Vandelay Industries?
George Costanza: Right.
Jerry: What is that?
George Costanza: You're in latex.
Jerry: What do I do with latex?
George Costanza: I don't know, you manufacture it.
Elaine: [laughing] Right here in this little apartment?
Jerry: And what do I say about you?
George Costanza: You're considering hiring me for your latex salesman.
Jerry: I'm gonna hire you as my latex salesman?
[chuckling]
Jerry: I don't think so. Why would I do that?
George Costanza: [angrily] Because I asked you to.
Jerry: If you think I'm looking for someone to just sit at a desk, pushing papers around, you can forget it. I get enough headaches just trying to manufacture the stuff.

Written by Jonathan Wolff
Mash up relationship: throughout its run Seinfeld has re-utilize several times the concept of mixing relationship language with ordinary situations. Examples like: The Masseuse (S05), The Barber (S05), The Fusilli Jerry (S06), The Bottle Deposit (S07). But there is no doubt that this is the best executed. The references are so subtle and clever: Shake hands = Kiss, help move = have sex. Plus, decisions about what to wear, wondering why he hasn't call back. It's astounding.
Cinematic style: right from the beginning of the series you could see that they were trying not just to write differently but also to direct the show in a unorthodox way. Cherones is a complete underrated master (more so than Ackerman) because he shot the first five seasons in a cinematic way but always being aware of the TV format. On Ackerman's seasons they didn't pay attention to this and the weird camera angles feel out of place. This episode has some of the most astounding cinematic directions in the whole series. The obvious one is the, now iconic, magic loogie story. It's cinematic gold. From the way the shot the short film (in JFK's shooting style) to the acting on set, everything clicked.
Inside thoughts: they first used them in The Subway (Elaine's memorable outburst) and they are back in full form. From Jerry's insecurities in Keith's car to Elaine's thoughts on Keith to even Keith's insecurities about himself. It takes the episode to another level of funny (when done right).
What I believe restrains this episode of being perfect is George's story. Elaine's is almost part of the same story line as Jerry. Kramer has virtually none and George's starts off great (reaching its peak in the end of the first half), but slowly starts its downhill fall. The girl George's takes out is quite annoying and by the time George tries to make Hernandez appear in the unemployment office it just reaches a point of disbelieve that kills the story. Also I don't know what the purpose of Jerry and Kramer visiting the baby was. It's great that we see the annoyingly fantastic Carol, but it's kind of out of place.
