[edit] Plot

George thinks his girlfriend Audrey (played by Susan Diol) is perfect, except for one flaw: she has a large nose. During a conversation about beautiful women Kramer bluntly tells her she is as pretty as any of them and that she just needs a nose job. Meanwhile, Jerry is conflicted about his relationship with an actress, played by Tawny Kitaen, whom he finds beautiful but with whom he has nothing in common. Also, Kramer needs Elaine's help in reacquiring a jacket that supposedly has an attractive power over women.

[edit] Trivia

Lists of miscellaneous information should be avoided. Please relocate any relevant information into appropriate sections or articles. (January 2009)

• This episode features a scene which was famous among behind-the-scenes "Seinfeld" lore for being one of the first which Julia Louis-Dreyfus had the hardest time getting through without laughing. The sight of Michael Richards as Kramer stuffing his pipe full of tobacco caused Julia to continually burst into giggles. Michael was noticeably displeased with Julia's inability to keep a straight face during this scene, insisting that her laughter was throwing off his concentration. Julia's giggly fits would interrupt the filming of many later scenes throughout the show's run, much to Michael's annoyance.

• At the end of the episode when George's ex-girlfriend ends up dating Kramer after getting her nose fixed, Jerry jokes, "My nose, my nose, my kingdom for nose."This is an allusion to Shakespeare’s play “Richard III” in which the eponymous character speaks the immortal line: “A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse.”[1]
