[edit] Plot
Elaine is humiliated when she accidentally shows a nipple on her Christmas card photo, that she has sent out to everyone she knows. Elaine earns the nickname, "Nip" at her workplace. Jerry has a date with the model from the plane in "The Airport," she later dumps Jerry after she catches him picking his nose. Jerry however, claims that he was only scratching his nose because there wasn't any nostril penetration. The model may have been at a bad angle to determine whether or not it was a pick or a scratch. George tries to reunite with Susan, but realizes it's a mistake, and uses "the pick" to escape. Kramer goes to Calvin Klein to complain about "The Ocean," an idea for a fragrance they stole from him, and is asked to pose for a risqué underwear advertisement. An executive at Calvin Klein says that "His buttocks are sublime".
[edit] Trivia
- Kramer proposes the idea for a perfume that makes its wearer smell like the beach in the season 3 episode "The Pez Dispenser." He tells the idea to an executive at Calvin Klein, who is completely dismissive of the suggestion.
- The episode alludes to Shakespeare's play The Merchant of Venice in Jerry's monologue defending nose-pickers: "If we pick, do we not bleed?"
- This is one of the only episodes of Seinfeld to mention a major holiday, besides Tim Whatley's Thanksgiving party.
