The Doll (Ep. 717)

Jerry, while performing in Memphis bumps into Sally, Susan's college roommate.  She gives him a wedding present for George and Susan which he has to hold on the plane so it doesn't get messed up.  In doing so, he breaks a bottle of barbeque sauce in his bag that he was going to use for his act on another show.  Later she comes to NY herself and Jerry asks her to pick up a bottle of this same barbeque sauce for him, but she gets the wrong kind.

George is freaked out by a doll that Susan owns that looks exactly like his mother.  Frank turns George's old bedroom into a billiard room.  Elaine gets an autograph from one of the three tenors to replace the one she ruined of the Maestros, but then ruins that one also.  Jerry in a last desperation for something for his routine, asks for the doll that looks just like George's mom, but Sally doesn't think that's funny so she brings him a different doll.

Interesting quote: "Jerry, come on.  If my mother keeps shrinking, this is exactly what she is going to look like in ten years." - George on Susan's doll looking exactly like his mom
