Elaine: Oh, what is this? You got me something?
Kramer: Yeah. Open it.
Elaine: Oh, Kramer. The bench! You got me the bench that I wanted!
Kramer: That's pretty good, huh?
Jerry: Great.
Kramer: Remember when we were standing there and she mentioned it? I made a mental note of it.
Jerry: Well, goody for you.
Kramer: Oh, yeah. I'm very sensitive about that. I mean, when someone's birthday comes up, I keep my ears open.
Kramer: So what'd you get her?
Jerry: 182 bucks.
Kramer: Cash? You gotta be kidding. What kind of gift is that? That's like something her uncle would get her.
Elaine: "Think where man's glory most begins and ends and say my glory was I had such a friend."
Kramer: Yeats.
Elaine: Oh, Kramer. [hugs Kramer]

Jerry: [as Elaine flips through channels] What are you doing? All right, all right. What's the matter with that? What about that one?
Elaine: Robert Vaughn, The Helsinki Formula?
Jerry: He was good in Man From U.N.C.L.E..

Elaine: [changes channel] Hey, look at naked people.
Jerry: No, I don't wanna see the naked people.
Elaine: Been a while?
Jerry: I have a vague recollection of doing something with someone, but it was a long, long time ago.
Elaine: I think my last time was in Rochester. My hair was a lot shorter.
Jerry: I remember that it's a good thing. Someday, I hope to do it again. [looks at Elaine]
Elaine: What?
Jerry: What?
Elaine: What was that look?
Jerry: What look?
Elaine: The look you just gave me.
Jerry: I gave a look?
Elaine: Yes.
Jerry: What kind of look?
Elaine: I know that look.
Jerry: Then what was it?
Elaine: Why should I tell you?
Jerry: Well, you're the big look expert. I wanna see how smart you are.
Elaine: Trust me. I know the look.

Elaine: So...
Jerry: What?
Elaine: What about the look?
Jerry: I don't know.
Elaine: You got something on your mind?
Jerry: No. Things pop into your head. You?
Elaine: Things occur to me from time to time.
Jerry: Yeah, me too. Well, you can't expect to just forget the past completely.
Elaine: No, of course not.
Jerry: I mean, it was something we did. Probably about, what? Twenty-five times?
Elaine: Thirty-seven.

Jerry: Yeah, we pretty much know what we're doin' in there. [points to bedroom]
Elaine: We know the terrain.
Jerry: No big surprises.
Elaine: Nope.
Jerry: What do you think?
Elaine: I don't know. What do you think?
Jerry: Well, it's something to consider.
Elaine: Yeah.
Jerry: I mean, let's say we did.
Elaine: What if.
Jerry: Is that like the end of the world or something?
Elaine: Certainly not.
Jerry: Why shouldn't we be able to do that once in a while if we want to?
Elaine: I know.

Jerry: I mean, really, what is the big deal? We go in there. [points to the bedroom] We're in there for a while. We come right back out here. It's not complicated.
Elaine: It's almost stupid if we didn't.
Jerry: It's moronic.
Elaine: Absurd!
Jerry: Of course... I guess, maybe, some little problems could arise.
Elaine: Well, you know, there are always a few.
Jerry: I mean, if anything happened, and we couldn't be friends the way we are now, that would be really bad.
Elaine: Devastating.
Jerry: Because this is very good. [points back and forth between them]
Elaine: And that would be good. [points to bedroom]
Jerry: That would be good too. The idea is combine the this and the that. But this cannot be disturbed.
Elaine: Yeah, we just wanna take this and add that.

Elaine: What about the kiss goodnight?
Jerry: Tough one. Your call.
Elaine: It's bourgeois.
Jerry: Fine. Well.
Elaine: Well.
Jerry: You ready?
Elaine: Ready.
Jerry: So think you can handle this?
Elaine: Definitely. [walks into the bookshelf]

George: All right, all right. So you're watching the naked station.
Jerry: And then, somehow, we started talking about, what if we had sex.
George: Boy, these are really bad details.
Jerry: It pains me to say this, but I may be getting too mature for details.
George: Oh, I hate to hear this. Any kind of growth really irritates me.
Jerry: Well, I'll tell you though. It was really passionate.
George: Better than before?
Jerry: She must have taken some kind of seminar or something.

Jerry: Is this yours or the roommate's?
Elaine: The roommate's.
Jerry: Would she mind?
Elaine: She keeps track of everything.
Jerry: Well, that's too bad, 'cause I'm taking it.

Jerry: Well, guess I'll get going.
Elaine: Oh.
Jerry: Well, I got the root canal tomorrow morning. It'll be easier if I go home.
Elaine: Fine, go away.
Jerry: I don't understand. Is there a problem? [Elaine pulls a ridiculous amount of paper towels] I'm getting the impression there's a problem.
Elaine: Just go.
Jerry: I'm having surgery tomorrow.
Elaine: Oh, surgery? You're going to the dentist.
Jerry: But you said, it can be very serious.
Elaine: Okay, so fine. Go.
Jerry: What happened to the rules? Remember? Sleeping over was optional.
Elaine: Yeah, it's my house, it's my option.
Jerry: It has nothing to do with whose house it is.
Elaine: Oh, of course it does.
