* NiceCharacterMeanActor: Kramer might be a doofus who screws things for other people and can be insensitive at times, but he usually means well. The actor playing him in the pilot, meanwhile, is an unrepentant jerkass who takes a very adversarial attitude towards George for ultimately petty reasons.

* {{Jerkass}}: “Kramer”. He’s an incredibly aggressive actor who gets angry at George for [[CantTakeCriticism giving him one suggestion]], and later [[DisproportionateRetribution threatens him for politely asking if he stole a box of raisins after his audition]]. It turns out he did steal the raisins, so his anger both times George asks is completely unjustified.

Jerry and George's pilot gets cast and filmed, with a few difficulties along the way during its production. George tries to find out what a discoloration on his lip is and wonders if it's cancerous.
