Recap / Seinfeld S 4 E 16 The Shoes

Go To

Jerry is astounded when Kramer tells him he's managed to kiss a girl Jerry dated several times but only ever got a handshake from. The woman is fascinated with Elaine's expensive shoes which drives Elaine crazy. Jerry and George meanwhile are trying to finalize the script for their new sitcom and have a meeting with Russell from NBC. Everything falls apart after Russell catches George staring at his 15-year-old daughter's cleavage. It's now up to buxom Elaine Benes to come to their rescue.


Tropes:

  • I Have Boobs, You Must Obey!: Elaine manages to convince Darlymple to put Jerry back into production by showing up at the restaurant where he's having lunch wearing a low-cut dress and seducing him.
  • Male Gaze: In-Universe. Jerry and George sneak a peek at Darlymple's daughter's cleavage when she bends over. Unfortunately for them, George can't stop looking in time for Darlymple to catch him.
  • Most Writers Are Male: Also In-Universe. Elaine is not amused by Jerry and George's apparent inability to write female characters into their script.
  • Missing Mom: Russell Darlymple has a daughter from a now-ended marriage. It's mentioned that the daughter just come back from visiting her.
  • Papa Wolf: Russell nixed working with Jerry and George after catching the latter ogling his daughter.
  • Vomit Discretion Shot: Elaine accidentally gets Russell sick by sneezing at the pasta primavera served to him at the restaurant causing him to vomit very loudly as heard by George and Jerry in his office.
