Warning: Spoilers
*plot*. While Jerry and Elaine visit Jerry's parents in Florida, Jerry suffers a scuba diving accident, while Elaine endures an uncomfortable night on a Sofa Bed. A tribute to Jerry's dad goes awry after Jerry accepts an astronaut pen from Jack Klompus.

The Pen is an absolute classic, that's really hilarious, as this is the 1st time that George and Kramer were both not in a Seinfeld episode. This is a classic episode, although I must say it does feel strange not seeing George or Kramer, and I thought Jerry's opening stand up about bathing suits was very funny, plus the funniest moment in the movie for me is when Elaine takes too many muscle relaxing pills, and says hilarious things!(Stella!). It's very well written by Larry David, and Tom Cherones does another perfect job of directing, plus Sandy Baron is just great as Jack Klompus. The whole fuss over the astronaut Pen cracks me up every time, and Barney Martin and Liz Sheridan are terrific as always as Jerry's parents, plus I would put this one in my top 20!. The Pen is an absolute classic, that's really hilarious, as this is the 1st time that George and Kramer were both not in a Seinfeld Episode, and I say Go see it now if you haven't!. ***** out of 5
