[edit] Plot
Mr. Wilhelm is delighted with the job George did on the project; however, he has no idea what he did or how he did it (however, unknowingly to George, Mr. Wilhelm had forgotten to take his medication, which would explain his compliment). While riding in the mail truck with Newman, a surprised Kramer suddenly spots Jerry's stolen car on an Ohio highway and alerts Jerry on his cellphone. Newman and Kramer quickly argue whether to deliver their mail and empty bottles to Saginaw, Michigan as they had planned, or to pursue Jerry's stolen car as it exits the highway, to which Kramer agrees . George is sent to a mental hospital by Steinbrenner, due to George's "report". At the mental hospital, George bumps into his ex-girlfriend Deena, who believes George is finally getting the help he needs. While still chasing Jerry's car, Kramer dumps their bottles to make the truck move faster and soon after dumps Newman. Newman then finds a farmer's house, complete with the proverbial daughter. As Kramer continues his chase, Tony throws all of the JFK golfclubs at him, and Kramer is soon forced to give up the chase. Peterman's golf clubs are returned, but not Jerry's car.
[edit] Trivia
- This is Larry David's last voice over while still working as a writer for the show. He voiced George Steinbrenner.
- Jerry's New York plate on his Saab 900 Convertible is JVN-728
- The farmer's daughter's cry of "Goodbye, Norman! Goodbye!" at the end of the episode was not originally scripted. Actress Karen Lynn Scott forgot that Wayne Knight's character was called Newman and accidentally called him "Norman", but the goof actually made the scene funnier, so it was kept in.
- At the end of the episode, Kramer and Newman make a harried escape through a cornfield. After filming this scene, Wayne Knight began experiencing heart palpitations from running so animatedly, and upon receiving advice from his doctor, he began an active attempt to get into better shape. Today, Knight has shed much of his formerly trademark girth and is a much slimmer and healthier man indeed.
- The highway where the mail truck was chasing Jerry's car took place on the Pasadena Freeway in South Pasadena, California.
