when the senators didn't vote the way the party wanted them to, they'd whip 'em!

So fucking funny.

Here's one:

Name three "confrontations" involving a main character that occur in or near an alley

Bonus: name the "escape route" used in two of them.

HughFreakingDillon

kramer vs karate kids (fire escape)

I can name a few more, but they were on the street. not sure if near an alley or not.

vant0037

Well..."in or near alley" would count.

I also would've accepted "Kramer vs. the AIDS ribbon tuffs." He uses the fire escape there as well...

Ledbetterman10

Not a main character but Nana had a run-in with a less-than-reputable looking fellow in an ally when she was looking for Chemical Bank. But don't judge a book by it's cover as he turned out to be quite nice and pointed her in the direction of the main customer service branch. "Ask for Mr. Fleming. He'll help you."

Good one!

Here's one: Kramer vs. the Van Buren Boys. His "escape route" is an inadvertent gang sign.

Or George vs. the Van Buren Boys... his escape route is simply running away!

Here's one:

The fellas try to escape down an alley from "maroon golf" during the Puerto Rican Day parade only to be blocked by Elaine's cab.

Another (sorta):

Jerry is confronted by his overly affectionate girlfriend while trying to order from the Soup Nazi. He escapes by shunning her, opting for the soup instead.
The connection, you ask? The name of the actress is Ali Wentworth.

After Susan's death, George finds himself tapped into working on the Susan Ross Foundation. ("Khaaaaaan!" he screams).

Name another instance involving another character where this happens in the show.

Vitalogensia

Man, good question. I can't tell if I'm making this up or not. But I feel like Elaine yells, "Susie!" I think George does it again, too, but I can't think of what he yells.

You're close, but I'll need more information on Elaine's circumstance to give you credit.

Oh and by "instance" I mean one that is similar (no other character ever actually works for the Susan Ross Foundation).

Not looking for a similar scream. Looking for a similar set of circumstances...

Give up?

So you're asking for "a similar set of circumstances to when George had to work for the Susan Ross Foundation." That's pretty convoluted but I'll try it. I guess you're asking for, like, a character having to do something that he/she doesn't really want to be a part of? Or something like that?

I guess I'll go with Jerry having to wear the puffy shirt.

Ledbetterman10

Here's a really, really tough one,

Who is Lomez's son? When does he appear and what does he do?

Well quite specifically and using very similar language to describe the circumstance, when Elaine's fake co-worker/alter-ego "Suzie" is fake-killed off by Elaine to avoid having to kwep up the office charade, Mr. Peterman taps her to head up a charity in her honor. "Nights, weekends, every free moment..." to which Elaine cries "Suuuuuze!"

Its such a similar circumstance to George being forced into working on the Susan Ross Foundation - even the first names! - that its clearly a nod from the writers to that episode.

The question was convoluted but the trivia is gold Jerry!

Yes. They tied that into a full circle beautifully.

I think it was meant to show just how little, if at all, they'd grown in the time of the show. they hadn't learned a thing, and nothing had changed. loved it.

No takers on Lomez Jr?
