- GoofsWhile George (Jason Alexander) is talking to David Letterman in the hall, Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) pitches the butler idea to the NBC executives. He changes the idea he & George came up with & pitches it that he gets the butler, not George. George enters the office while everyone is laughing and says to Jerry, "I thought I was getting the butler." George couldn't have known Jerry made the change as he wasn't in the room at the time.
- Quotes
[first lines]
Jerry Seinfeld: There's no easy way to break off any relationship. I think when you first start dating, they ought to give you three "Get out of relationship free" cards. You know what I mean? So you can just go up to the person and go, "Uh, here you go. I'm sorry. I'll grab the tennis racket. Don't even bother to get up. Have a good one. Sorry." Which is fine, unless, of course, the person you're in the relationship with happens to have an "Eight more months of guilt, torture, and pain" card. "Uh, hold it. I've got a little something for you."

Apart from being great on its own, this one does a lot of job tying things together. On one side, it continues the arc of the season (the creation of the pilot) and gives substantial material to the arc (Susan getting fired, the conception of the pilot's story) and on the other side we get two stories that will set up two mini arcs respectively. One being the incident with Ping and the other being Jerry starting a relationship with Marla The Virgin.
As an individual episode it has great memorable moments and big laughs throughout. Jerry and George have a great conversation about George's relationship with Susan, we get a delightful George's reaction to Susan getting fired.
In summation, a great episode that apart from being amazing on its own, gains more credit for its importance in the season.
PD: loved the little detail of Elaine not getting the door opening. Little eggs that make the show much more realistic.
