[[WMG:Speaking of "The Pie", Audrey is an identical twin to Eva from "The Limo".]]
Both characters were played by the same actress (Suzanne Snyder), but in-universe, the two were identical twins but separated at birth. Audrey was adopted by Poppy and lived a normal life, while Eva was adopted by a man whose intense bigotry influenced her greatly. As a result, she became a neo-Nazi as an adult.

[[WMG: Courtney Cox played Monica Geller on the show]]
She lives in Manhattan, she loves cleaning, and if she lied to the dry cleaning that she was married to Jerry, why wouldn't she lie to Jerry about her name for a reason that we don't know?

[[WMG:Audrey didn't try the pie in "The Pie" because she witnessed it being prepared in an unsanitary manner.]]
Based on Jerry's refusal to try Poppy's pizza in "The Pie" (because he witnessed Poppy not washing his hands before returning to work), it's not unreasonable to think that a similar thing happened to Audrey.

** The reunion episode of ''CurbYourEnthusiasm'' quashes this theory, unfortunately. This theory explains a lot of unanswered questions in the finale, like the apparent KangarooCourt, latent illegal court proceedings and complete ignorance of actual Good Samaritan Laws, though, as well as a police officer arresting four innocent bystanders/witnesses to a violent crime with video evidence, and ignoring '''the very mugging and carjacking he is arresting them for not involving themselves with'''.

While showing obvious interest in being with women, George seems to constantly fail at every aspect of connecting with them, yet can discuss his thoughts and feelings (to an extent) with other men. George shows constant hypersensitivity over his masculinity (accidentally buying women's glasses, needing to give a disclaimer before saying the word 'fabulous'), panicked over receiving a massage from a male therapist because "it moved", and obviously has latent romantic/sexual feelings for Jerry that he tries not to think about (the girlfriend who "looks just like him."). George has feelings that he simply does not want to face or is at the very least bi-curious.

While showing obvious interest in being with women, George seems to constantly fail at every aspect of connecting with them, yet can discuss his thoughts and feelings (to an extent) with other men. George's obsession with finding a wife, even one that he realized he didn't particularly want to marry, seemed to be a way of convincing himself of his own heterosexuality and desirability by a woman. George shows constant hypersensitivity over his masculinity (accidentally buying women's glasses, needing to give a disclaimer before saying the word 'fabulous'), panicked over receiving a massage from a male therapist because "it moved", and obviously has latent romantic/sexual feelings for Jerry that he tries not to think about (the girlfriend who "looks just like him.").

[[WMG: Jerry and George are half-brothers.]]
Genetically, George's hair is too dark to be Frank and Estelle's child. However, if Estelle had an affair with a dark-haired man their child could get a dominant dark-haired gene. Dark-haired Morty Seinfeld must have lived in the same neighborhood as Estelle and Frank, since their sons went to the same public school. Morty impregnated Estelle about the same time he and Helen were conceiving a legitimate child of their own. Two families living nearby with sons close in age resulted in the sons forming a lifelong friendship even when the parents' relationships soured after Frank and Helen found out about the affair. (The story of George falling off the rope in gym class was either a mere apocryphal fabrication or simply one of his earliest memories of their childhood.)

As a result, Frank so resented George that he constantly antagonized George to the extent of completely ignoring his other son, which is why we never see him, while Estelle was so ashamed of George she just wished they were all as happy as the Brauns next door; however, Morty sweet-talked Helen into reconciling with the silver tongue that got him so far in the raincoat business, thus Jerry has a much more loving relationship with his parents.

At some point, Susan realized that getting married to George, and getting effectively manacled to his friends, would be a massive error in judgment. And the envelopes (which sickened, but didn't kill her) was the last straw; either George was too cheap to get good envelopes, or he actually tried to kill her. So, she decided to fake her death, with the help of her parents (who have many ''many'' monies). And they went along with the idea of the foundation as a way to make sure that there was no way for George to get his hands on it.

In reality, Susan, under a new identity, moved to the West Coast. She found a nice, loving partner and settled down to a comfortable life. And, when her parents told her about George going to jail, she laughed and laughed and laughed.

[[WMG: Tim Whatley was cooking meth during Jerry's dentist appointment.]]
Jerry thought that he was being molested and that Whatley was having sex with his female assistant while he was sedated because his shirt was untucked and they were buttoning up their clothes. The reason that they removed all of the clothes was so that their clothes would not get the smell of meth while they were cooking. The Penthouse letter that Whatley wrote was to throw Jerry off of his scent.

Kramer really did have a job - if you can call pot dealing a job, that is. It appeared that he made a good profit, even though it also appeared that he smoked a considerable percentage of what he was selling. This theory explains: why he always had lots of money (always in cash, naturally) even though he didn't have a conventional career; why he was always in a daze; why he was always hungry; why he always seemed to be horny; why he was constantly falling over things; why his social network extended far and wide - even though he was an unmotivated doofus; and why he had strange people in his apartment at all hours of the day and night.
* Not a bad theory, but given the fact that his neighbours never smell anything funny and more importantly given his demeanor, coke dealer is probably more likely.
** They smelt it, they just didn't care, since they were good friends with him (and probably assumed this at some point anyway, given that it actually explains almost every eccentricity in his behavior), or bought from him themselves.
** Depending on how old the building is, they could just assume the smell is yet another 'old, not in the best condition building' smell.
* Indeed, there was that time when he impersonated a coke dealer.
** He didn't do a very good job though.
*** [[FridgeBrilliance Because he was paranoid that if he did, it would look suspicious to the others who would wonder how he managed such accuracy.]]

I'll do you one better; they're in Hell. Remember Newman's speech in the finale about "revealing myself in all my glory" to Jerry? He's the {{Devil}}. These characters will never get over their narcissism, their mortal sin, which is why they're in Hell and not Purgatory. All the weird things that happen to them are part of their punishment-the finale just made things more explicit (and of course they still don't get it).
** The reunion episode of ''CurbYourEnthusiasm'' quashes this theory, unfortunately. This theory does explain a lot of unanswered questions in the finale, like the apparent KangarooCourt, latent illegal court proceedings and complete ignorance of actual Good Samaritan Laws, though, as well as a police officer arresting four innocent bystanders/witnesses to a violent crime with video evidence, and ignoring '''the very mugging and carjacking he is arresting them for not involving themselves with'''.

[[WMG: Jerry actually lost his rematch with Duncan Meyer in "The Race".]]
The happy ending we saw was just Jerry's imagination. This explains why Jerry's girlfriend Lois never appears again: she broke up with him after Jerry's masquerade was exposed. This also explains why Mr.Bevalaqua didn't realize that Jerry got a head start, despite said head start being very obvious. And even if Mr. Bevalaqua didn't realize what happened, Duncan should have.

* Duncan actually did realize. You can see him yelling in slow motion,"He got a head start!"

He has [[BrutalHonesty no sense of tact]] (as evidenced by telling a woman she looks pregnant, and another that she should get a nose job), [[TheKlutz he's physically clumsy]], he has [[CharacterTic odd tics and other repetitive behaviours]], and [[ComicallyMissingThePoint he often doesn't pick up on]] [[DeadpanSnarker Jerry's]] [[SarcasmMode sarcasm]].
