    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Jerry Seinfeld commented that the references to Schindlers Liste (1993) were included after learning that Steven Spielberg got so depressed while filming the movie that he would watch tapes of Seinfeld episodes to cheer himself up.
    • Goofs
      Kramer said he'd take care of everything with the trenchcoats so it wouldn't matter if they arrived after Morty left.
    • Quotes

      Jerry Seinfeld: She lives with her parents.

      George Costanza: Really? Hey, maybe this will become a cool thing, living with your parents.

      Jerry Seinfeld: Yeah, then maybe baldness will catch on. Things will all be turning your way.

      George Costanza: Hey, believe me, baldness will catch on. When the aliens come, who do you think they're gonna relate to?

    Rudy's
    Unlike Seinfeld who as part of the comedy act says he would never wear used clothing because he's a germophobe, I wore thrift clothes for a good part of my life....including from "Rudy's."

    Only Jewish writers would write an episode of making out during Schindler's List. Instead of going to a nice hotel since Jerry can afford a Cadillac for his father, to have intimacy with his one Jewish girlfriend during the run of the show....

    Not my kind of joke....but okay, I tolerate it, otherwise I"m with Helen and Morty's outrage.

    And the girl's father.

    Never really accepted the Irish American actor playing Morty as a Jewish father, but he can be funny.

    There have been numerous shows about Irish American families. Any of them cast Jews as Irishmen? The late Theodore Bikel? Jackie Mason?

    I"m with Sarah Silverman. On this.

    Yeah, I love this episode. The whole business of selling Frank's cabana wear at Rudy's.
