    I don't remember seeing this Frank Costanza scene posted before.


    [Setting: The Coffee shop]

    (George and his father, Frank, are sitting at a booth)

    FRANK: George, as you may be aware, your mother and I are not moving to Del Boca Vista, Florida.

    GEORGE: (Resenting the fact. Nodding) I am aware.

    FRANK: So, I was wondering, would it be okay if I turned your room into a billiard parlor?

    GEORGE: A billiard parlor?

    FRANK: Regulation table, the hi-fi, maybe even a bar.. Give it real authenticity..

    (Elaine enters. George spots her in mid-sentence)

    GEORGE: Well, that's.. Elaine!

    ELAINE: Oh, hi, Frank.

    GEORGE: (Sliding over to make room for her) Sit down. Join us, please.

    ELAINE: (Trying to come up with an excuse not to sit with them) Actually, I gotta get to the.. uh.. thing.

    GEORGE: (Somewhat stern) Oh, the thing's cancelled. Sit down.

    ELAINE: (Giving up) Okay.. (Sits, George laughs) So.. (Trying to think up something to talk about) Frank, did George ever show you that photo?

    GEORGE: (Confused) What photo?

    ELAINE: You know, the photo I took in Tuscany of the little man in front of the sign that said "Costanza"?

    FRANK: (Interested) There's a Costanza in Tuscany? (Elaine nods) Did he look like me? Did you talk to him?

    ELAINE: I didn't talk to anyone - I was just walking by, and I saw the sign, and I thought George might get a kick out of it.

    FRANK: I gotta get that picture - it could be my cousin, Carlo.

    ELAINE: Who is that?

    GEORGE: (Muttering out, not really wanting to talk about his family) When the Costanzas came here, one brother stayed behind.

    FRANK: I played with him every day until the age of four - and then we separated.

    ELAINE: So, you weren't born here?

    FRANK: No. That's why I can never be president.. It always irked me. That's why, even at an early age, I had no interest in politics. I refuse to vote. (Yelling out) They don't want me, I don't want them!

    GEORGE: I don't know what you're getting all riled up about. There are probably a million Costanzas-

    FRANK: (Cutting him off) Don't bring me down. (To Elaine) Do you have another copy of that photo?

    ELAINE: No, I, I don't. But.. Well, the Maestro might.

    FRANK: The Maestro? What Maestro?

    ELAINE: He's this guy that I went to Tuscany with. He's a great guy, but I just wouldn't feel comfortable calling him.

    GEORGE: Really? Why?

    ELAINE: (Explaining) Because he hasn't called me since we got back.. I spilled wine on his 8 by 10 photo of one of his favorite Italian opera stars.

    GEORGE: Who?

    ELAINE: You know the Three Tenors?

    GEORGE: Yeah.. (Trying to remember) Poverotti.. Domingo.. and.. uh.. the other guy.

    ELAINE: (Nodding) The other guy.

    GEORGE: So she coughed.
    JERRY: Coughing... naked... It's a turn-off, man.
    GEORGE: Everything goes with naked.
    JERRY: When you cough, there are thousands of unseen muscles that suddenly spring into action. It's like watching that fat guy catch a cannonball in his stomach in slow motion.
    GEORGE: Oh, you spoiled, spoiled man. Do you now how much mental energy I expend just trying to picture women naked?
    JERRY: But the thing you don't realize is that there's good naked and bad naked. Naked hair brushing, good; naked crouching, bad.

    That was such a good episode! Also with Kramer trying to focus in the shower and that germophobe woman at Elaine's office :lol::lol:

    soak it in water for thirty to forty minutes."

    "The Serenity Now" was on local TV last night. "Mr. Tomasulo? Wanna buy a computer? Why not?" "Costanza you're white hot!" "You're not giving away our water pick!" "Hoochimama hoochimama!"

    George: what about all those computers Lloyd Braun sold?
    Frank: he was crazy. His phone wasn't even plugged in. He just liked ringing that bell.

    [Jerry's Apartment, 5A. Morty and Helen are packing suitcases.]

    Jerry: Are you sure you can't stay longer?

    Morty: No, we just came for the funeral. `

    Helen: Poor Marvin Kessler, he went too early.

    Jerry: He was 96 years old.

    Morty: That had nothing to do with it, the man was out of shape.

    Helen: That's why we joined a program. We walk once around the block three times a week.

    Morty: And every morning I eat a plum.

    Jerry: Well, what ever you do, you're wearing me out.

    Helen: What about you?

    Morty: Yeah, looks like you're getting a little spare tire there, tiger.

    Jerry: Really?

    [Kramer comes in]

    Kramer: Hey, Seinfelds!

    Morty: Hey, Mr. Kramer!

    Kramer: How long are you staying?

    Helen: We just came down for a funeral.

    Kramer: Oh yeah, yeah I heard, Marvin Kessler. Boy, that makes you think. If he could go...

    Kramer's last line always kills me. :lol::lol::lol:
