[edit] Plot
George decides that he needs to help a security guard that works at Susan's uncle's store. Elaine begins dating Bob Cobb ie. the "Maestro" after meeting him through Kramer. Kramer gets an out of court settlement in his lawsuit that nets him free coffee at any location around the world. Jerry asks Poppy about Tuscany and is referred to Poppy's cousin, who makes him an offer he can't refuse. George brings the security guard a chair and he falls asleep. This episode marks the first appearance of lawyer Jackie Chiles (Phil Morris), a parody of Johnnie Cochran.
[edit] Trivia
- When Jerry and Kramer arrive in Tuscany, and Jerry pays the cab driver, Kramer is shocked when Jerry pays him 75,000 lira. Jerry proclaims that Kramer simply dosn't understand the conversion rate, however, at the time this episode aired, 75,000 lira was equal to $56.71 USD, which seems like an unlikely amount for a cab ride--although it is certainly possible since a ride from a European airport to a country villa could be quite lengthy.
- At the end of the episode when Kramer and Jerry arive in Tuscany, the aria O mio babbino caro is playing in the background. This aria was first released in 1918 in the popular one-act comedy opera Gianni Schicchi, and was written by the famed Italian composer, Giacomo Puccini. It is one of the few opera arias to enter the mainstream media.
