Warning: Spoilers
*plot*. This time around Jerry inadvertently makes some comments about a kid, that got kidnapped in Pennsylvania, and that gets the physical therapist Julianna paranoid about her kid, while George worries that men may turn him on, while Kramer notices Joe DiMaggio in dinky donuts.

The Note is a true classic Seinfeld episode, and one of my favorites, George is hysterically funny in this one!. I simply loved the story for this one, and the opening with the physical therapist Julianna getting paranoid that Jerry is some psycho, because he talked about a kid that got abducted in Pennsylvania, is just hilarious, plus it's well written by Larry David. Tom Cherones does a great job of directing, and George's reactions when Ray is giving him the massage, are a riot, plus Jerry's opening stand up about how doctors all can't be the best was really funny. This episode just has so many classic moments, and the ending to this was great, plus the Seinfeld characters have fully developed at this point. It's extremely well made, and Terri Hanauer(Julianna) and Jeff Lester are both fantastic in there hilarious roles, plus, I'm glad they didn't keep the new music they had at that point, as it was terrible. The Note is a true classic Seinfeld episode, and one of my favorites, George is hysterically funny in this one. ***** out of 5
