"War and Peace" was originally titled "War ... What Is It Good For?"

Maybe the best line in the whole series.
Agree it's my favorite. Frank's completely indifferent delivery is perfect.

One of my favorite Seinfeld scenes ever...The Switch (warning long)


JERRY: And the worst part of course is that she also possessed many of the

other qualities prized by the Superficial Man.

GEORGE: I see.

JERRY: So as you can see, I've got a bit of a problem here.

GEORGE: Well, if I hear you correctly--and I think that I do--my advice to you

is to finish your meal, pay your check, leave here, and never mention

this to anyone again.

JERRY: Can't be done, huh?

GEORGE: The Switch?

JERRY: "The Switch."

GEORGE: Can't be done.

JERRY: I wonder.

GEORGE: Do you realize in the entire history of western civilization no one has

successfully accomplished the Roommate Switch? In the Middle Ages you

could get locked up for even suggesting it!

JERRY: They didn't have roommates in the Middle Ages.

GEORGE: Well, I'm sure at some point between the years 800 and

1200--somewhere--there were two women living together.

JERRY: The point is I intend to undertake this. And I'll do it with or without

you. So if you're scared, if you haven't got the stomach for this, let's

get it out right now! And I'll go on my own. If not, you can get on

board and we can get to work! Now what's it going to be?

GEORGE: All right, dammit, I'm in.

JERRY: I couldn't do it without you.

....and the plan they come up with:



JERRY: Aw, we can't do it, who are we kidding? It's impossible! It's true! You

can't do the Switch! Nobody can do the Switch! It was a stupid idea to

begin with! Let's face it. I'm stuck with the non-laugher and that's

that!

GEORGE: We'll come up with something.

JERRY: Yeah, sure we will.

GEORGE: I-I-I-I-I got it!!!!!


GEORGE: All right. Let's go over it again, one more time.

JERRY: All right. So I tell Sandy that I want to have a mnage trois with her

and her roommate.

GEORGE: That's right.

JERRY: And you believe this course of action will have a two-pronged effect.

Firstly, the very mention of the idea will cause Sandy to recoil in

disgust, whereupon she will insist that I remove myself from the

premises.

GEORGE: Keep going.

JERRY: At this point, it is inevitable that she will seek out the roommate to

apprise her of this abhorrent turn of events.

GEORGE: Continue.

JERRY: The roommate will then offer her friend the requisite sympathy even as

part of her cannot help but feel somewhat flattered by her inclusion in

the unusual request.


GEORGE: A few days go by and a call is placed at a time when Sandy is known to

be busy at work. Once the initial awkwardness is relieved with a little

playful humor, which she [Laura] of course cannot resist, an invitation

to a friendly dinner is proffered.

JERRY: Huh. Well, it all sounds pretty good. There's only one flaw in it:

They're roommates. She'd have to go out with me behind Sandy's back.

She's not gonna do that.

GEORGE: You disappoint me, my friend. Sandy wants nothing to do with you. She

tells Laura, "If you want to waste your time with that pervert, that's

your problem."


JERRY: It's a perfect plan. So inspired. So devious. Yet so simple.

GEORGE: This is what I do.

George: "his sister had left her bra hanging in the bathroom, I picked it up, I studied it.... I remember thinking.... I like this. I didn't how or I what form but I knew I wanted to work with bras."

Jerry: Estelle says, " I don't know how you can do this, I am so nervous for you! Jerry .... " actually I'm drunk."
Or... George says, " how good a look did you get? Suppose you were a police sketch artist and u had to draw a description." Jerry, " They'd pick her up in about 10 minutes."

Elaine: " He took it out. He took ... Ha ha... It out..!"

Kramer: "Four hours in this chop I'm a full inch taller!!!"
"Hennigans, No tell, No smell, SCOTCH!"
Elaine, "that's ridiculous, I shave my legs!". Kramer, "not everyday"

Putty: Elaine, "David I think we should see other people." Putty, " you gotta be kidding me how come?"
Elaine, " what is this?". Putty, " that's the letter D"

Newman: " Not my type, I need a really pretty face!"

Frank: " are you trying to keep us out of Del Boca Vista!"

From "The Suicide"
(my memory is a little rusty on this, but here goes)

Gina - who are these stooges you speak of? Where are they?
Jerry - I will take you to see the stooges.

Also, from the same episode - Jerry, to Kramer - what's the coma etiqutte?
