George: Look, do I have to break up with her in person? Can't I do it over the phone? I have no stomach for these things.
Jerry: You should just do it like a Band-Aid. One motion, right off!

Marlene: I guess things changed for me on Tuesday night.
Jerry: Tuesday night? What happened Tuesday night?
Marlene: I saw your act.
Jerry: My act? What does that have to do with anything?
Marlene: Well, to be honest, it just didn't make it for me. It's just so much fluff.
Jerry: I can't believe this. So what are you saying? You didn't like my act, so that's it?
Marlene: I can't be with someone if I don't respect what they do.
Jerry: You're a cashier!
Marlene: Look, Jerry, it's just not my kind of humor.
Jerry: You can't go by the audience that night. It was late. They were terrible.
Marlene: I heard the material.
Jerry: I have other stuff. You should come see me on the weekend.

George: Think I swallowed a fly! I swallowed a fly! What do I do? What can happen?

Jerry: A relationship is an organism. You created this thing and then you starved it, so it turned against you. Same thing happened to the Blob.

Jerry: I don't return fruit. Fruit is a gamble. I know that going in.

George: It's like I was making a prison break, you know. And I'm heading for the wall, and I trip and I twist my ankle, and they throw the light on you, you know. So, somehow I get through the crying and I keep running. Then the cursing started. She's firing at me from the guard tower: 'Son of a bang! Son of a boom!' I get to the top of the wall, the front door. I opened it up, I'm one foot away. I took one last look around the penitentiary, and I jumped!

Jerry: He's a doctor. You gotta pay what he says.
George: Oh, no, no, no. I pay what I say.

George: My back is killing me.
Jerry: You gotta go to my chiropractor, he’s the best.
George: Oh yeah, everybody’s guy is the best.

(Car door opens. Elaine enters)
Elaine: Hi.
Jerry: Hi.
(George pulls his seat forward to allow Elaine into the back)
Elaine: Hey, what are you doing?
George: I’m letting you in.
Elaine: Oh no. No. I don’t want to sit in the back. I’ll be left out of the conversation.
George: No, you won’t.
Elaine: Yes, I will, George. I’ll have to stick my chin on top of the seat.
George: OK.
(George gets out, and gestures for Elaine to sit in the middle)
Elaine: Why can’t you sit in the middle?
George: Please, it doesn’t look good. Boy, boy, girl.
Elaine: You’re afraid to sit next to a man. You’re a little homophobic, aren’t ya?
George: Is it that obvious?
(Elaine sits in the middle)
Elaine: Hello, Jerry.
Jerry: Hello.
Elaine: Did you get a haircut?
Jerry: No, shower. So, where are we eating?

Jerry's car in this episode (a '72 Oldsmobile Cutlass) is different than the car he drives in later episodes.

During the episode, George demands his books back. However, in "The Couch" and "The Fatigues", we learn that George tries to avoid reading at all costs.
