This is the only episode in which a character's age is directly mentioned: Jerry says he's 36.

This episode was originally planned to air in season 2. Before this episode was broadcast, Jerry came on and did a piece explaining that the episode takes place before George lost his job and that he wanted to "let you know, that we know, you know."

George: You got aloe? I love aloe.

Party Guest: So what do you do?
Jerry: I'm a comedian.
Party Guest: Are you? Let me ask you something. Where do you get your material?
Jerry: I hear a voice.
Party Guest: What kind of voice?
Jerry: A man's voice, but he speaks in German so I have to get a translator.
Party Guest: How come you keep tapping your head?
Jerry: It's a nervous tic. I'm on L-Dopa.

George: Every day is a date.
Jerry: That's one of Dante's nine stages of hell, isn't it?

Jerry: Listen, George is going home with this Ava from his office.
Elaine: Really? Huh. What a world. So we can go now?
Jerry: Uh, no, he's taking the car.
Elaine: Well, what are we gonna do for a ride?
Jerry: I don't know.
Elaine: You don't know?
Jerry: Maybe Kramer can come pick us up.
Elaine: Oh great, oh, this is great. How could you let him take the car?
Jerry: There's nothing I could do, it's part of the code!

Near the end of the episode when Jerry and Elaine are waiting for Kramer, Jerry's Civil War book moves from his lap to the coffee table between shots.

Elaine: "Maybe the dingo ate your baby."

This is a reference to the 1988 Meryl Streep film, "A Cry In The Dark"

Jerry: Pendant! Those bastards!

Jerry is referring to the episode "The Jacket" in which Elaine told Jerry she was working for Pendant.
