* MisplacedRetribution: Miss De Granmont is understandably angry about George touching her without her permission, but threatens to fire the executive who hired him unless he fires George, when he had nothing to do with George's inappropriate actions.

Jerry, Kramer, and Newman have reason to suspect that their accountant, Barry Profit, is taking their money and using it to buy illegal narcotics.

* IrrevocableMessage: Jerry suspects his accountant's sniffing as a sign of drug use and, fearing for his income, writes a scathing letter ending their association. When an unrelated character ''also'' sniffs around Jerry and reveals that it's an allergic reaction to his mohair sweater, Jerry tries to stop Newman from mailing the letter. It's subverted when Newman fails to deliver the letter after feeling a woman's material. To top it off, Jerry later finds out the accountant is going bankrupt and wishes the letter ''had'' made it.
* MistakenForJunkie: Barry, the titular accountant. It turns out to be an allergy to mohair...until it turns out it actually is drugs.
* SeriousBusiness: Elaine (and then the other characters) develop a hilariously bizarre obsession with [[MundaneMadeAwesome exclamation points]].

!!Tropes:
* AccidentalPervert: George loses his job by feeling up his boss's material while waiting at the elevator.
* AssholeVictim: Newman tries to touch a woman's material, and she gets mad at him for it.
* DoubleStandard: In regards to "feeling someone's material" (that is, rubbing a part of someone's shirt between the thumb and index finger). When a man does it with a woman's shirt, it's [[DisproportionateRetribution treated as the nonverbal equivalent of a death threat]] (though Elaine's boyfriend Jake Jarmel is somehow exempted from it), but when a woman does it with a man's shirt, nobody so much as raises an eyebrow. On the other hand, Jake is good-looking. George and Newman are NOT, hence the women in question reacting like it's practically an AttemptedRape. It's more of a DoubleStandard based on looks rather than gender. That might also explain why Jerry takes a beautiful woman feeling his material as a pick-up line.
* HypocriticalHumor: Elaine has previously describes Jerry as a stingy perfectionist who wants everything to be "just so." However, she herself falls into that description when [[ToiletSeatDivorce she and Jake Jarmel break up because he didn't include exclamation points in the note he left her.]]
* SeriousBusiness: Elaine (and then the other characters) develop a hilariously bizarre obsession with [[MundaneMadeAwesome exclamation points]].
* SkewedPriorities: Elaine seems more concerned about how Jake wrote a phone message (specifically the lack of exclamation points) than the message itself (her friend having a baby).
* TemptingFate: Sid Farkus says that barring some unforeseen development, he would hire George. Immediately after Sid says this, George feels Ms. De Granmont's material, which gets him fired.
* TooManyHalves: At the end of the episode, Jerry describes his shirt as "half silk, half cotton, half linen".
