Male - Unbonding (Ep. 102)

Jerry has a friend from his childhood that he doesn't like very much, but doesn't know how to end the relationship. He makes an attempt to end it just like a relationship with a girlfriend, but this leads to the guy bursting into tears in the middle of Monks' Cafe.

Interesting facts: First appearance of the famous Monks' Cafe, first mention of Kramer's "Make Your Own Pizza Pie" restaurant idea, and first appearance of Elaine Benes. This is also the only episode in the entire show whose title does not begin with "The." Jerry wanted all the episodes to start with "the" for uniformity and also to keep the show titles simple so the writers didn't spend all their time trying to come up with creative names.

Interesting quote:
Jerry - You don't think it might have had anything to do with that? (talking about George's fanny pack)
George - What, you don't like this?
Jerry - It looks like your belt is digesting a small animal.

Grade: B (Some good laughs, George is starting to become his neurotic self, but the friend was very, very irritating).
