Seinfeld (season 3) List of Seinfeld episodes |
"The Subway" is the 30th episode of the sitcom Seinfeld. It is the 13th episode of the show's third season. It aired on January 8, 1992.
The episode was written by Larry Charles and was directed by Tom Cherones.
Each of the four principal characters has a unique experience during a subway ride. Jerry befriends an overweight nudist (Ernie Sabella) on his ride to Coney Island. George meets an enchanting woman passenger (Barbara Stock) who seduces him, takes him to her hotel bedroom, handcuffs him to a bed while he is in his underwear, and robs him. He misses his job interview in the process and has to walk all the way across the city in a bed sheet to get his spare key from Jerry. Kramer overhears a horse racing tip from another passenger, places a $600 dollar, 30-to-1 bet at an off-track betting parlor, and wins $18,000 dollars, helping to pay for his numerous traffic violations (including "no doors"). On his way back, Kramer is about to be mugged by another bettor, only to be saved by a cop posing as a blind violinist. Elaine misses a lesbian wedding she was to attend due to train delays, which made her feel claustrophobic.
Jerry refers to George as "Biff" and reminds him not to whistle on the elevator on his way to the job interview. This is a direct reference to the 1949 Arthur Miller play Death of a Salesman.
