DANA: It doesn't matter, so ... GEORGE: This is a brand new jacket. Boy this really burns me up, ... DANA: George, George, look at me. Okay, forget about the zipper. ...

JERRY'S APARTMENT ELAINE: Anyway so Fred and I are going to do some volunteer work for that Church on Amsterdam. JERRY: Oh, volunteer work!. See that's what I like about the holiday season. That's the true spirit of Christmas. People being helped by people other than me. That makes me feel good inside. Look at what we have here. (mail). A Christmas card from Laine. You didn't have to go to all that trouble. ELAINE: It was no trouble. My a**istant did the whole thing. JERRY: I didn't even see the picture. How did it come out? ELAINE: Well, you know.

My parents. My boss. Uh, Nana and Papa. JERRY: DIDN'T YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE? ELAINE: Oh God I didn't notice. Oh, what am I going to do? You know your whole life you go through painstaking efforts to hide your nipple and then BOOM, suddenly hundreds of people get their own personal shot of it. Kramer enters KRAMER: Hey! ELAINE: Have you seen the card? KRAMER: What card? ELAINE: This car. KRAMER: Yeah, yeah. Of course. I took it. ELAINE: Well did you notice anything unusual about it?

KRAMER: Aw, no, no I didn't notice it. no, uh, ELAINE: It's because you made me wear that stupid shirt. JERRY: Well, maybe no one noticed it. You didn't notice it. Let me go get Newman. We'll see if he sees it. ELAINE: No. I don't want him looking. JERRY: Oh what's the difference. Everybody else you know has it. ELAINE: Oh my God. I sent one to the super in my building. My mailman. My ten year old little nephew. Sister Mary Catherine. Father Chelios. Oh my God Fred! I sent one to Fred. JERRY ENTERS WITH NEWMAN NEWMAN: Okay. What is it? JERRY: Take a look at this card.

JERRY: It was a scratch. GEORGE: Hey. It's me. JERRY: Don't you think I know the difference between a pick and a scratch? Buzzer JERRY: Yeah? ELAINE: (OC) It's me. JERRY: Come on up. GEORGE: Was there any nostril penetration? JERRY: There may have been some incidental penetration. But from her angle she was in no position to make the call. GEORGE: So let's say in her mind she witnessed a pick. Okay, so then what? JERRY: Is that so unforgivable? Is that like breaking a commandment? Did God say to Moses thou shalt not pick? GEORGE: I guarantee you that Moses was a picker. You wander throughh the desert for forty years with that dry air. ... You telling me you're not going to have occasion to clean house a little bit. JERRY: Let me ask you something. If you were going out with somebody and if she did that what would, would you do? Would you continue going out with her? GEORGE: No. That's disgusting! Elaine enters ELAINE: You cannot believe what I'm going through. That card is plastered all over the office. Everybody is calling me, Nip! ... Yeah. That's my new nickname at the office. Nip! These guys keep asking me out for drinks. Not only that, Fred, you know the guy I told you about? He hasn't called me in three days. ... [sees card] Oh please! GEORGE: Hey. How come I didn't get a Christmas card? Everybody else got one. Jerry got one, Kramer got one. I thought we were good friends. I don't get a Christmas card. I don't get it.

I think I do. KRAMER: What's that perfume? ELAINE: What, Ocean. KRAMER: That's mine. That's my smell. Jerry you've got to get that model to get me an appointment with CALVIN KLEIN. JERRY: I can't She won't return my calls because she caught me in a pick at a light. KRAMER: I thought you said it was a scratch. JERRY: But that's not what she thinks. GEORGE: Why don't you call her agency. Maybe she's been out of town and she didn't get the calls. JERRY: All right. I'll call the agency. [Elaine grabs card from George] Hello. Yes, I'm trying to get in touch with Tia Van Camp. Do you know if she's been in town? She's been in town. Oh really. well thank you very much. [hangs up] She has been in town. She's at CALVIN KLEIN's right now. KRAMER: Let's go. MONK'S GEORGE: It'll be different this time. SUSAN: I need someone a little more stable. GEORGE: I'm not stable? I'm like a rock. I take these gla**es off, you can't tell the difference between me and a rock. I put these gla**es on a rock. You know what jumps into most people's minds? Costanza! SUSAN: People don't change. GEORGE: I change I change. Two weeks ago I tried a soft boiled egg. Never liked it before. Now I'm dunkin a piece of toast in there and I'm loving it. SUSAN: I'm not a soft boiled egg. GEORGE: And I am not a piece of toast. SUSAN: I just don't think we have anything in common. GEORGE: That's okay. That's good. You think Louie Pasteur and his wife had anything in common? He was in the fields all day with the cows, you know with the milk, examining the milk, delving into milk, consummed with milk. Pasteurization, h*mogenization, She was in the kitchen k**ing co*kroaches with a boot on each hand. SUSAN: Why were there so many co*kroaches? GEORGE: Because. There was a lot of cake lying around the house. Just sitting there going with all the excess milk from all the experiments [grins] SUSAN: And they got along? GEORGE: Yes! Yes. You know. She didn't know about Pasteurization. He didn't know anout Fumigation. But they made it work! TRUMP TOWERS KRAMER: I want to talk to Calvin. SECRETARY: You can't go in there. KRAMER: Let me talk to Calvin. KRAMER ENTERS OFFICE TIA: Kramer? KRAMER: Yeah, uh. CALVIN KLEIN: Who are you? KRAMER: I'm here to talk about the ocean. CALVIN KLEIN: Oh, yes kramer.

TIA: What are you doing here? JERRY: Well, I had to talk to you - I noticed you haven't been returning my calls. TIA: Well, I've been busy. JERRY: Because I - I thought we had a good time the other night, an' the only explanation I can come up with is that you think that you caught me (flustered, he indicates a nose pick) TIA: (Waving him off) I'd rather not talk about this.. JERRY: But I was clearly on the outer edge of the nostril. TIA: I know what I saw. (Turns toward the elevators) JERRY: But there - but there was no pick! I - I did not pick! There ws no piick!

And, um, when I told him my idea about the beach cologne, you know, he - he laughed at me. KLEIN: You're very lithe, aren't you? Very graceful. KRAMER: Well, yeah. KLEIN: Sit down, eh? (Kramer, misjudging one side of the couch, sits down uncomfortably) You're very lean, but muscular.. KRAMER: You know, I try to take care of myself. I - I watch what I eat. Ah, just recently I cut out fructose. KLEIN: You're spectacular. KRAMER: (Flattered) Oh? Scene ends SETTING: ELAINE'S OFFICE Elaine's fighting with her boyfriend, Fred, about her Christmas card ELAINE: I told you, Fred - my friend's next door neighbor took it. FRED: (Incredulous) Soo - what happened?! ELAINE: Well, I-I-I must a missed a bu*ton. I forgot to bu*ton it. FRED: I really don't see how you could miss a bu*ton like that. ELAINE: Oh, you've never missed a bu*ton?! (Phone rings, she puts it on speakerphone) Yeah?.. RECEPTIONIST: Your sister, Gail. ELAINE: Oh, God - my nephew. (Picks up the phone and hits the bu*ton) Hi, Gail!.. Yu.. yu... Yes, Gail, I know how old he is. CO-WORKER: (Pokes his head into the doorway) Hey, Nip, ya need that man*script or can I take it home? ELAINE: Yeah, take it! Take it!.. An' stop calling me "Nip"! (Co-worker takes it and quickly leaves. Elaine goes back to the phone) It was an accident! Well.. well.. it's gotta be somewhere. Look under his mattress. Scene ends SETTING: SUSAN'S APARTMENT BUILDING George and Susan are slowly making their way up the stars to Susan's apartment. He's treating it very much like the long walk to an execution; she's mellow and happy Scene ends SETTING: CALVIN KLEIN'S OFFICE A couple people are sitting with Klein, and talking. Kramer is no where in sight WOMAN: About the focus group? I had nothing to do with the focus group. What's your point? (She sees Kramer emerge from another room. He's wearing only dress shoes, socks, and his briefs) My.. he's s**ual, athletic.. an' without a trace of self-consciousness! KLEIN: His bu*tocks are sublime! MAN: Of course, his pectorals could use a little work - I suppose we could get him into the weight room. WOMAN: (Mesmerized with Kramer's body) No, let's get him in the studio today. We can send these out immediately. Kramer casually puts his hand on the wall, attempting to lean on it, but the corner is rounded, and he slides along it, eventually falling down. Fortunately, the other people don't notice - they're talking amongst themselves MAN: You've done it again, C.K.! Scene ends SETTING: CALVIN KLEIN OFFICE BUILDING In a hallway, Tia and others are waiting for the elevator. Jerry, deciding to make a speach, starts to preach to the crowd JERRY: An' what if I did do it? Even though I admit to nothing, and never will. What does that make me? And I'm not here just defending myself but all those Pickers out there who've been caught. (Elevator doors open) Each an' every one of them, who has to suffer the shame and humiliation because of people like you.. (Everyone but Jerry is now in the elevator. Jerry's still addressing them) Are we not human?! If we pick, do we not bleed?! (Elevator doors shut. A few people in the hallway are looking at him, he turns and addresses them) I am not an animal! Scene ends SETTING: ELAINE'S OFFICE Elaine's standing in the doorway, yelling at Fred ELAINE: I did not bare myself deliberately, but I tell you, I wish now that I had! (Fred, shocked by her speech, flees. She calls after him, still standing at the hallway) Because it is not me that has been exposed, but you! For I have seen the nipple on your soul! Scene ends MONK'S GX: So the minute I started up the steps to her apartment I knew I made a terrible mistake. Going back with her. So we're in her apartment she goes into the bathroom. I'm cursing myself; now how do I get out of this? Then it hits me like a bolt of lightening. The pick. JERRY: The pick? ELAINE: The pick? GEORGE: She comes out of the bathroom, I'm in up to my wrist. You should have seen the look on her face. JERRY: I think I've seen that look. Kramer enters KRAMER: I've got the magazine. The underwear ad came out. JERRY: Boy, they really worked on your pectorals. GEORGE: Your bu*tocks are spectacular. ELAINE: Oh my! KRAMER: What? ELAINE: I'm not sure but... I think I see your...
