KRAMER
That's what you get for robbing the cradle.

ELAINE
That's right, doofus, and I don't know when I'll get the chance to do it again. But he's really got me over a barrel.

JERRY
What does that mean, anyway, ''over a barrel''? Who puts someone over a barrel?

KRAMER
Remember that young fraulein who was advising me with my at-home microbrewery? She...

JERRY
Aren't you gettin' a little old for that?

GEORGE
So anyway, what are you gonna do?

ELAINE
I don't know! I don't want to lose him, but I also don't know if I can deal with the hassle.

JERRY
So, what you're saying is, you don't know if he's...

ELAINE
That's right...gum-worthy.

JERRY
Oh, well, good luck with that. (Now perusing the newspaper) Look at this: ''J. Peterman, esteemed catalog clothier, speared to death at 90.''

ELAINE
(Peering over his shoulder) Must've been the Masai. He was always going on about that damn sandal.

JERRY
(Still reading the paper) Oh, my God! I forgot all about this! The Regency is showing a 40th-anniversary rerelease of Rochelle, Rochelle. A new 35 mm print!

i>ELAINE
''A young woman's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk?'' Get out! (She shoves Jerry, who teeters backward)

JERRY
If we leave now, we can have lunch at the Chinese restaurant across from the theater.

GEORGE
And miss the senior matinee at 1:00?

JERRY
I'll lend you the extra money, George, if we don't make it.

KRAMER
Jerry?

JERRY
Yeah, yeah, I know. You don't carry cash. Alright, let's go.

KRAMER
Giddy-up!
