Kramer: It's the Merv Griffin set
Jerry: How did you get this in here?
Kramer: Oh, you just bring it in sideways and [clicks tongue] hook it.
Jerry: So where are you gonna sleep?
Kramer: The backstage.
Elaine: Phew! This chair smells like garbage.
Kramer: Oh, well a lot of the stars from the 70's, they were not as hygienic as they appeared on TV. Yeah, you can take Mannix for example.
Jerry: [phone rings] I'm gonna get that.
Kramer: All right. Well, Jerry, we'd love to have you back anytime. Well, Elaine Benes! Well, it's great to have you! Why, is it possible that you are even more beautiful than the last time I saw you?

J. Peterman: That noise. That's the noise.
Elaine: What?
J. Peterman: That infernal rattling sound that has plagued me these past two days, and I could not find the source. In my office, in the hallway. Even in the men's room. Shame on you, Elaine!
Elaine: No, no, Mr. Peterman that wasn't me!
J. Peterman: That reminds me of the Haitian Voodoo rattle torture! You haven't gone over to their side have you?
Elaine: No, Mr. Peterman.
J. Peterman: Because, if I hear one more rattle - just one - you're out on your can. And if you are undead, I'll find out about that too.

Kramer: Oh, Elaine Benes. Well, this is quite a thrill, yes. Come on sit down. Yes.
Elaine: Well, I'll tell you, this sidler guy is really chapping my hide.
Kramer: Excuse me. Yeah, we're talking this way.
Elaine: Well, he's getting credit for work I did. He's gonna sidle me right out of a job.
Kramer: Now, for those of us who don't know, uh, sidling is what?
Elaine: Kramer, what is wrong with you?
Kramer: What do you mean?
Elaine: Well, for starters, you're looking at note cards.

George: Jerry?
Kramer: Oh. Hey. [plays entrance music] Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's our good friend, George Costanza! What a surprise! [Kramer encourages Jerry and Elaine to move up a seat] Yeah, sit, sit, sit. Well. [claps]
George: Well, it happened again.
Jerry: What happened?
Kramer: Eh, eh, eh. I'll ask the questions. What happened?
George: Well, I just stomped some pigeons in the park. They- They didn't move.
Kramer: All right, let's change the subject. [to George] Now, uh you and Jerry dated for a while. Tell us ... what was that like? That was the wrong card.
George: I don't get these birds! They're breaking the deal. It's like the pigeons decided to ignore me!
Jerry: So they're like everyone else.
Kramer: [laughs loudly] All right, let's take a short break. [eats chips, sips cola] Okay. [checks watch] We're back!

George: So they're flying the tiny instruments in from El Paso.
Kramer: El Paso? I spent a month there one night.
Newman: [laughs] El Paso!
Jerry: What's he here for?
Kramer: To take some of the pressure off of me.

Kramer: So, Jerry, what's going on with you? I understand there's a young lady in your life, mmm?
Jerry: Well, actually, it's kind of a funny story because she has this amazing toy collection and last night I finally got to play with them.
Kramer: Well. It sounds like things are progressing. Do I hear wedding bells?
Newman: Are you married right now?
Jerry: Actually, she doesn't even know about the toys. I gave her the wrong kind of medicine and I guess she passed out!
Kramer: What do you mean "wrong kind of medicine"?
Jerry: She's even got that old Mattel football game that we love!
George: Oh, come on. You gotta get me over there.
Kramer: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You mean to say that you drugged a woman so you could take advantage of her toys? Let's pause a moment. [Newman plays the theme music and starts eating] Jerry, now, what you do with your personal life is your business, but when you're on my set, you clean it up, mister!
Newman: I told you he was a risk.
Jerry: Oh, like he's not just carrying you, and has been for years.
Newman: Yeah? Well, you bombed! That story stunk worse than these chairs!
Kramer: Smile, everyone! We're back!

Jerry: I just think if you borrow my blender, return it.
Kramer: Come on, we're like Cain and Abel.
Jerry: Yeah, you know, Cain slew Abel.
Kramer: No, he didn't. They were in business together. Dry wall or something.
Jerry: Oh, no.
Kramer: All right, then what was it?
Jerry: Well, I think Abel worked hard all summer harvesting his crops, while Cain just played in the field. Then when winter came, Abel had all the nuts, Cain had no nuts. So he killed him.
Kramer: The way I remember it, Cain, he was a successful doctor, but when he took this special formula, he became Mr. Abel.
Jerry: You broke my blender, didn't you?
Kramer: Yeah. Well, I was trying to make gravel and it just... It just didn't work out.

Jerry: So the whole set was destroyed?
Kramer: Well, the squirrel kept scurrying and the hawk kept clawing.
George: Well, at least we know the prosthetic squirrel hips work. Sorry about the set.
Kramer: I'll tell you, it was a grind trying to fill 10 hours a week. I'm not sure I was ready to have my own talk show set.

Elaine: Who wants cupcake?
George: Oh, me, me, me, me, me!
Jerry: You know, that batter is, like, 30 years old.
Frank Costanza: [on TV] You step on it and it flushes.
Elaine: Why is your father giving a tour of a rest stop?
Estelle Costanza: [on TV] Stop squirming.
George: Oh, don't look. This is the part where they change me.
Jerry: You're like eight years old.
Estelle Costanza: [on TV] Georgie.
George: I was seven and a half.

Kramer: Hey, those look familiar.
Jerry: Of course. It's garbage.
Kramer: No, no, no, no. These brown things. The chairs. Jerry, this is the set from the old Merv Griffin Show! They must be throwing it out. This stuff belongs in the Smithsonian!
Jerry: Yeah, or at least in the dumpster behind the Smithsonian.
Kramer: Look at this. Boy, one minute Elliot Gould is sitting on you and the next thing, you're yesterday's trash.
Jerry: Come on, Kramer, get out of there.
Kramer: No, no, no. You go on ahead. I'm not finished taking this in. Oh, Jerry look ... Merv Griffin's cigar.
Jerry: Oh, come on.
