Added DiffLines:

* WrittenInAbsence: George and Kramer do not appear, easily explained by their not accompanying Jerry and Elaine on the trip to Florida. This is the second and last episode not to feature Kramer, the ''only'' episode not to feature George, and also the only episode in which more than one of the four main characters is absent.

* AbsenteeActor: Both Kramer and George are absent. Doubles as EarlyInstallmentWeirdness in Kramer's case, as he was originally written as agoraphobic and therefore never left his apartment. As for Geroge, Creator/JasonAlexander was so upset that he told Creator/LarryDavid to "do it permanently" if he was ever written out of another episode.
