Chexoid: Nov 5, 2009; Now that I have this dating robot I can take it easy.

So we all know that the best Seinfeld episodes are ones with interwoven plot-lines, but which episodes do you think were the best at doing that?

IMO It's "The gum". Almost everything everyone does in the episode somehow comes back to bite George in the rear end, and it's amazing.

I forgot the name, but the one where everything evened out for Jerry and George did everything backwards was pretty drat good at this.

"Shut your traps and stop kicking the seats! We're trying to watch the movie! And if I have to tell you again, we're gonna take it outside and I'm gonna show you what it's like! You understand me? Now, shut your mouths or I'll shut 'em for ya, and if you think I'm kidding, just try me. Try me. Because I would love it!"

I just started a new job last week where I was given 5 or 6 keys that are labeled "DO NOT DUPLICATE." I almost started repeating this routine:

JERRY: Well, they're not here. You'll have to dig up your spare set.
GEORGE: I don't have a spare set. All my keys say 'do not duplicate'.
JERRY: So?
GEORGE: So you can't duplicate 'em.
[At this, Jerry and Kramer exchange a look, and laugh.]
KRAMER: Sure you can. (to Jerry) Such a sweet kid.

I agree that it's "The Gum". That whole episode is just a constant crescendo to the climax line, "He's doing it to fool Lloyd Braun!"

Another great one is "The Pothole". A great combination of things come together at the end to make Newman burst into flames. "Yes you're once, twice, three time a ahhhhhhh!"

That's the one I was going to say - listened to the commentary the other day and the writers were pretty proud of themselves for that one.
