* DrivenToSuicide: Supposedly Newman had to break traffic law to save Kramer because Kramer was going to kill himself because he could not become a banker.
* HamToHamCombat: in universe, Newman's perjury scheme falls apart because he and Kramer become too excited going at each other while Kramer is on the witness stand.



** George had spent this and [[Recap/SeinfeldS4E3ThePitch the previous episode]] insisting that he and Jerry would get at least $50,000 from NBC for their sitcom idea, and is then furious when they only offer $13,000. Which is precisely why he dismisses Newman asking if they're getting at least $50,000 by claiming that money isn't important. Particularly funny given that George is possibly the cheapest character on the show and the biggest money-grubber.

* PoliceAreUseless: one subplot has George and Jerry hiding in the diner because they are afraid Crazy Joe Davola is outside. A cop enters and Jerry asks the cop to escort them to a cab, but becomes increasingly irate as the cop delays, first to get a muffin and then a whole meal, and lingers for coffee.
