George Ruins Lunch
3 December 2018
Warning: Spoilers
In "The Calzone", Jerry is dating a woman who can get anything she wants in any situation. He uses it to get tickets to sold out movies and to get out of speeding tickets. George starts eating lunch each day with Mr. Steinbrenner. They get calzones from the same restaurant everyday. But this becomes a problem when George is wrongly accused of stealing from the tip charge when, in actuality, he's trying to re-tip with the same money so that they notice his good deed. Kramer starts putting his clothes in the dryer every day for that warm feel. He uses Jerry's oven to save money on quarters. Elaine gets tricked into dating a guy who keeps losing bets on purpose so he can spend time with her.

Oh this one is just great! It feels a bit like a George-centric episode which I'm always a big fan of. It's got a nice bit part from Newman, a hair-brain scheme from Kramer, and Jerry torpedoing his 10,000th relationship. This also might be the most we ever see Steinbrenner on-screen in any one episode. The jokes all land, all the individual storylines are great. There's nothing to complain about with this one.
