He begins experiencing other newfound emotions he cries over Patty leaving him, tells George and Kramer he loves them, and asks Elaine to marry him.Įlaine goes to the bar mitzvah of her ex-boss Mr. Adam celebrates by giving her a French kiss. Word gets around, and she is invited to six more bar mitzvahs.

She is skeptical at first, but after Jerry's proposal Elaine consults Rabbi Glickman for advice on how to eliminate her shiksappeal. Kramer is inspired to turn the hallway area outside his apartment door to resemble a front porch in " Anytown, USA", with lawn chairs, potted plants, American flag, wind chimes, and screen door. He uses Frank's "serenity now" mantra but eventually his pent-up anger releases and he takes it out by smashing all of George's computers. When George suggests that Lloyd's sales should offset this financial disaster, Frank reveals that he never even plugged in the phone Lloyd made sales calls on he apparently just played along with Lloyd's delusional "sales" so George would have someone to compete against. To ease George's resulting despondency, Jerry urges him to confess all his emotions, which disturb Jerry so much he becomes emotionally repressed again. Elaine accepts Jerry's proposal, but he is no longer interested.
