The Conversion (Ep. 511)

George converts to Latvian Orthodox in order to stay with a girlfriend who is also Latvian Orthodox.  Jerry is alarmed by a strange tube of fungal cream in his girlfriend's medicine cabinet and consults Elaine's boyfriend, a podiatrist, to find out what it is.  Later, the tube ends up in Elaine's medicine cabinet and her boyfriend stumbles upon it and is, like Jerry, turned off.  It turns out that the cream was just for Jerry's girlfriend's cat.  Kramer discovers he has "kavorka" (the lure of the animal) and women can't resist him.

Interesting fact: The first mention of Kramer's kavorka.

Interesting quote: "Jerry, I'm telling ya', I have this power.  And I have no control over it." - Kramer

Grade: B (Kramer's kavorka and Frank's absurdness saves the day)
