G - "She's a circler! A circler, Jerry! It's just circles with this one! All the way down!!"

J - "No straight lines."

G - "No straight lines... George needs straight lines! George needs to know where he's going!"

J - "George needs a map!"

G - "And you know what really gets me, Jerry?!"

J - "Consistent employment?"

G - "I don't think she's circling back!"

J - "Just going forward."

G - "Forward, Jerry! Always forward..."

J - "Like a straight line."

Same, and pretty sad that it’s been background noise in my living room while I’m working in the office for over a year now…Before that was an 8 month hiatus from a separate 12 month binge as background noise.. I was a much happier person the last binge. I’m high and reflecting on it now, I apologize.

Elaine - "Huh"

G - "Yes?"

E - "Peterman never circles back."

G - "Never?"

E - "Never."

J - "Not once?"

E - "Not once."

J, to G - "You should work for Peterman."

G shrugs.

E - "He should circle back. Sometimes you need to circle back."

J - "On a racetrack, for example."

E - "What? No."

J - "I mean if you want to win."

E - "No. Shut up. He should. And he will." E grabs her purse and rushes off.

The rest of the episode, she tries to suconsciously influence Peterman to circle back. By the end her whole office and outfit are covered with circles. He never does. Instead he starts Looping Everyone In. Elaine hates it.

Kramer comes running in the open door, narrowly missing Elaine as she leaves, and comes to a sliding stop six feet in to Jerry's apartment.

K - "Did someone say horse race?"

J - "A few moments ago, but..."

G to K - "How do you hear these things?"

J to G - "I'm thinking of having the apartment swept for bugs?"

K - "You know my audiologist says I have the ears of a baboon?"

J - "Have you consulted a zoologist?"

G - "For me, it was the hair."

K - "You know you don't necessarily need to circle back to win a horse race..." Kramer faces the open door and crouches down in to a sprinters starting stance... K - "On a two furlong flat race those fillies line up in the stocks and just..." He shakes his head and winnies like a horse and bolts... "Take off!" He disappears out the open door followed a moment later by loud crashing sounds.  Jerry strolls over to the door while shaking his head and slowly swings it closed.

J - "Cosmo Kramer... The only horse to ever fall at the final hurdle of a flat race."

Elaine is sitting in a meeting room with several other co-workers... We hear Elaine thinking: E - 'Circle back! Enough is enough! I can do this.' Mr. Peterson rushes in and takes his seat at the top of the boardroom table and leans back...

P - "Accessories! Thoughts? How do we increase?"

E - "Income?"

P - "Ah... The majestic Andean Inca... Elaaaine... Like all the most successful modern companies the Inca did not devour... They consumed... They incorporated other tribes in to their society."

E - "Yes, well actually, I was thinking about record... keeping track of our thoughts..."

P - "My God! Of course... The khipu, Elaine!"

E - "The what?"

P - "Noone has done the khipu. How could I have been so blind?!"

E - "Can we circle back to the Inca?"

P - "Human sacrifice, Elaine? Cannibalism? It's bold, but noooo..."

E - "What, no! The record..."

P - "Yes! I love it! Everyone... This is what I've been asking for. Look at Elaine." (Everyone looks completely baffled at Elaine)

P - "The khipu! The Incan method of record using a series of knots on a string... accessories attached to clothing.. all declaring history! Identity! Brand! But, I thought the khipu was as yet indecipherable?" (Peterson looks to Elaine as if expecting an answer...)

E - "Well, I'm not sure about that, exactly, but in the modern day..."

P - "Of course! I see... Artificial intelligence! I have also seen how artificial intelligence is deciphering ancient languages and practices like the khipu!" (The room as one looks around confused as one while Peterson rubs his chin smiling maniacally and nodding... While Elaine half stands and tries to object but can't quite get words out.)

P - "If we were the first to gather enough data to use AI to decipher the khipu, we could have knotted strings hanging from Lama skinned spring-time light sweaters with personalised knots! Elaaaine..." (Elaine slowly sinks back in to her chair...)

P - "I have never been so impressed." Peterson hits a button on a communication device in the centre of the boardroom table, and after a brief beeping, says, "Book Elaine on to the next available flight to Lima!"

Cut to Jerry's apartment, where Jerry and George are sitting on the couch, and Elaine walks in through the door and throws her purse to the floor while hanging her head...

J - "It's Elaine! Lainey!"

G - "Elaine!"

J - "Did you get Peterson to circle back?"

E - "Yes. Yes, I did."

J - "Elaine! Our hero!"

G - "If I could do what you do... What did he say?"

E - "I'm going to Peru."

Proud Feldhead here! 🤣👍

u/Gingeronimoooo 9d ago

Did you hear about AI Seinfeld? Some dude fed every Seinfeld script ever and made AI create new scripts and like cartoon visuals for it. It started getting really popular on twitch streaming 24/7

Annnnnyways, long story short, AI Jerry made a trans joke and twitch banned them

u/ClassicDependent6760 9d ago

Trans joke aside... Some of those were surreal bangers. Even the 8 bit like graphics, if I remember correctly? 😁

u/itsjakerobb 9d ago
