[edit] Plot

Kramer suffers side effects from his head injury because "Crazy" Joe Davola kicked him in the head. NBC gives Jerry and George another meeting and on the way, Jerry throws out a watch his parents gave him. He then meets his Uncle Leo, who picks the watch out of the garbage. Kramer agrees to be an alibi for Newman's trial on a speeding ticket. George and Jerry meet with NBC executives and they give the go ahead for a pilot. Later they hide in the coffee shop, afraid of an attack from "Crazy" Joe Davola. Elaine's shrink realizes that he didn't leave an extra prescription for Joe Davola, for the time while he's on vacation.

[edit] Quotes

  • Newman: Yes, I admit I was speeding, but it was to save a man's life. A close friend. An innocent person who wanted nothing more out of life than to love, to be loved, and to be a banker.

[edit] Trivia

  • Al Fann, the actor who played the judge in this episode, would later play Wanda Sykes' father in the Krazee-Eyes-Killa episode of Larry David's show, Curb Your Enthusiasm.
  • According to the Notes About Nothing feature of this episode on DVD, this is Wayne Knight's favorite episode.
  • George casually uses the word "masturbation" in one scene. Several episodes later, the writers would go out of their way to avoid using the term in an episode entirely centered around the topic ("The Contest").
