George is tired and needs to take a nap while at work; he finds the perfect place, under his desk. Kramer has taken up swimming, but he finds the pool too constricting for his needs; he begins swimming in the East River. Elaine's date is worried about his back and hers; he sends her a mattress and she gets the wrong idea. She gives the mattress to Kramer. Jerry is getting new kitchen cabinets, but the contractor is constantly asking him questions. George gets Jerry's contractor to make some modifications for his desk, including space for an alarm clock. Steinbrenner is in George's office looking for him; he decides to wait for George to return. George gets Jerry to phone in a bomb threat in an effort to get Steinbrenner out of his office. After finding George under the desk, Steinbrenner thinks he has ESP and would be perfect to meet the terrorist's demand of a fitted hat day. Meanwhile, Jerry's contractor, left on his own, has made a change in Jerry's kitchen that no one likes. Elaine gets her mattress back when she gets the right idea; however, Kramer has fouled it up with the stench of the East River. Elaine's boyfriend discovers the benefits of swimming in the East River. Steinbrenner hears a ticking sound in George's office, thinks it's a bomb and calls in the bomb squad. Jerry decides he needs his old kitchen back. Elaine throws her back out trying to get rid of the mattress. Kramer's river gets crowded and George finds a new place to nap.

When the "bomb defusing robot" (ref: "The Package") enters George's office to look for the bomb in his desk, I've noticed that the brand model is the SP 2000! The same name as Kramer's slicer in "The Slicer"... Weird combo!

I love this episode, we get to hear Mr. Steinbrenner sing:

"She's a heartbreaker...lovetaker...Brubaker...run this prison like a man...oh-oh"

I'm surprised you haven't commented on the rearrangement of Jerry's apartment. A great line is Elaine uttering, "It's like you're selling movie tickets back here." Another great line is from George shouting, "Now I GOTTA FIGURE OUT THE HAT SIZES OF 59,000 DIFFERENT PEOPLE!! WHAT IF A PINHEAD SHOWS UP. I GOTTA BE ON TOP OF THAT!" It's funny how the characters are so annoyed because their natural habitat, Jerry's apartment, has been changed not to their liking. But the kitchen was very ugly and obtrusive.

lol I love the part when they're viewing what the bomb defusing robot is video taping and then it bumps into a dinosaur toy and steinbrenner panics

"OOHH,just empty calories and male curiosity ay Georgie..."

Minor continuity error in this episode. After George's nap under the desk, he puts a People magazine (Mel Gibson cover) away in a compartment under the desk and goes to lunch (@ 2 o'clock?). When Steinbrenner enters George's office, the People is back on top of George's desk.

how long have you been waiting to squeeze that into a conversation?

Yeah, that's one of those prop bloobers like when George runs out of the bathroom and falls on Jerry's floor (yelling "Say Vandelay!"), he drops the newpaper to his right. When Jerry enters they have an above shot of George where the newspaper has moved to his left.

Haven't been waiting at all. Just noticed this when the episode aired this week. confirmed with the miracle of Tivo.

also at the end when conrad leaves the apartment after finishing teh cabinets, they are emptied but when jerry returns and first sees them "ahhh...back to normal.." their are filled with cereal boxes and other things where george is napping

Who was on the cover of playboy that steinbrenner found in george's desk?

Kramer: Oh man, I'm on the wrong floor again.

KRAMER: Four hours in this chop and I'm a full inch taller. . . . Giddyup.

STEINBRENNER: You know what I think? I think you knew about that bomb ahead of time.

GEORGE: What?

STEINBRENNER: ???? about that bomb. You climbed under that desk because you have ESP. George, what's on my mind? . . . Meatballs! Huh? Unbelievable.

during the conversation between jerry and george, while george is hiding under the desk, what does gorge say after jerry says "i think i should have some reason"? the loud whisper shout. something to the effect of "serefaa" or "serefash"

He is saying, "JERRY!" in a forced whisper.
