Elaine regrets accompanying Jerry on a trip to Florida to visit his parents. There are temperature control problems in the condo, a back breaking sofa bed, a slight overdose of muscle relaxants and the disposition of a pen that writes upside down.

NOTE: This is the *only* episode that doesn't contain the character of George Costanza. Kramer doesn't appear in it either, but there another episode that he doesn't appear in either- "The Chinese Restaurant".

Trips out of town are a fairly consistent theme in Seinfeld... I think the dislocation suffered by the characters when they travel out of their normal surroundings opens up extra comic possibilities!

Do me a personal favor...take the pen!

STEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Is George credtited in this episode since he is a regular? He is always the last credit at the beginning. I think they did that because they were always thraetening to fire him because he is such an idiot and dropping his name from the credits at the end would require the least amount of work.

Chances are that Jason's agent negotiated that last place spot in the credits, because in a series of informational bytes, everybody remembers the first thing and the last. That's why the director's name comes last in the opening credits of a modern movie.

And of course, Jason has his usual credit in "The Pen."

Larry David, during the scene where Morty is recognized for his years of service has several lines. The scene begins with him saying "Hey Jack, lets get this started"-Something like that. Second, when Jerry begins his routine on the mic when Jack and Morty are fighting-"Who are you?!". Lastly, after Jerry begins his bit on how people are always looking forward to peanuts on a flight-"I'd rather have a bottle of scotch!".
