Quote from Elaine in The Puffy Shirt

Elaine: Well, you can't wear that on the show.
Kramer: Elaine, you want to stop?
Elaine: Wha- What? No. Jerry, you are promoting a benefit to clothe the homeless people. You can't come out dressed like that. You're all puffed up! You look like the Count of Monte Cristo.
Jerry: I have to wear it! The woman has orders for this shirt based on me wearing it on TV. They're producing them as we speak.
Elaine: But you're supposed to be a compassionate person that cares about poor people. You look like you're gonna swing in on a chandelier!
