Recap / Seinfeld S 6 E 17 The Kiss Hello

Go To

Kramer's attempts to make everyone in Jerry's apartment more sociable causes Jerry to come into conflict with his neighbors, but Jerry has other problems when his grandmother claims that Uncle Leo has failed to pay back his (Jerry's) mother. Kramer dates Elaine's friend Wendy for her hairdo. George is upset at being charged by Wendy for a cancelled appointment. Elaine ends up injuring herself while on a ski trip with Wendy.


Tropes:

  • Close-Knit Community: Jerry's apartment, to the point where they all get angry at Jerry for daring to be uncomfortable with the kiss hello greeting custom.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: Jerry has every right to not want everyone to kiss him due to how many germs can be contracted with physical contact.
  • Minor Flaw, Major Breakup: Kramer breaks up with Wendy due to changing her hairdo.
  • Serious Business: The Kiss Hello has become this for everyone in Jerry's apartment since when Jerry decides to disown it, he becomes a lepper.
  • "Take That!" Kiss: Kramer responds to Jerry declaring that he won't tolerate any more kissing by planting one right on, naturally just as George is walking in.
