1. Jerry gets a pen
2. Elaine sweats
3. Elaine hurts her back
I thought this episode was a classic. I don't see anything on the wikipedia page, but it surely felt like the "Chinese Restaurant" episode for me. It had a similar characteristic where the characters bicker about stupid things (particularly a space pen in this episode) in a foreign environment. The retirement home environment was cliche but hilarious. I'd hate to be in a place like that when I get old. I think Jerry's parents really shined here and I definitely do want to see them more. Elaine was also hilarious as she sweats, hurts her back, and get drugged all for the sake of the episode. She really put herself out for it.
