Elaine looking at her chart

Elaine : Difficult ?

Doctor : Elaine . You shouldn't be reading that . So tell me about this rash

of yours .

Elaine : Well it's , it's ..... You know I noticed that somebody wrote in my

chart that I was difficult in January of 92 and I have to tell you that I

remember that appointment exactly . You see this nurse asked me to put a gown

on but it was a mole on my shoulder and I specifically wore a tank top so I

wouldn't have to put a gown on . You know there made of paper .

Doctor : Well that was a long time ago . How about if I just erase it. Now

about that rash ......

Elaine : But it was in pen . You fake erase .

Doctor : All right Miss Benes . This doesn't look to serious . You'll be fine

.

Elaine : What are you writing ? Doctor .

George at Photo Shop

Sheila : Here you go .

George : Thanks .

Sheila : I hope you got that mustard stain out of your shirt .

George : Ohhhhhh

Jerry , Kramer , and George at the apartment

Jerry : No . All you got to do is jiggle it with this screwdriver .

George : Smile

Jerry : What are you doing ?

George : I meet this women , Sheila . She works down at the one hour photo

pace . She's got this incredible smile . Like she's got extra teeth or something

Jerry : Extra teeth . I love that look .

George : Hey check this out . I go to pick up my pictures and she says " I

hope you got that mustard stain out of your shirt ."

Jerry : What mustard stain ?

George : Don't you see . She's looking at my pictures .

Jerry : Why did you take a picture of a mustard stain ?

George : That's got nothing to do with it .

Jerry : I see . She's looking .

George : Yesssss .

Kramer : Hey , you got to get this thing fixed .

Jerry : They've tried to fix it . But it keeps coming back the same .

Kramer : Would you be interested ?

Jerry : Well how are you going .....

Kramer : Would you ?

Jerry : I guess I would .

Kramer : Yeah , yeah .

Elaine walks in

Elaine : You are not going to believe what happened to me at the doctors

office today .

Jerry : Not the gown again .

Elaine : No , no . I was looking at my chart and it said I was difficult . Why

would they write that ?

Jerry : They have gotten to know you .

Kramer leaves with Jerry's stereo

Elaine : Then the doctor writes more stuff down and doesn't even look at my

rash .

George : Why don't you find a doctor that doesn't know your difficult .

Elaine : Oh come on . I'm not difficult . I'm easy .

Jerry : Why because you dress casual and sleep with a lot of guys .

Elaine : Listen to me you little shi........

George : Smile .

Elaine at another doctor's office

Doctor : Well Elaine you really didn't have to put on the gown .

Elaine : Oh it's my pleasure . I love these . In fact I got one at home. It's

perfect when you just want to throw something on .

Nurse hands the doctor her chart

Doctor : All rightly . Let me just review your history before we begin .

Elaine : Where did you get my chart ?

Doctor : From your last doctor . It's a standard procedure .

Elaine : You know I can tell you my whole history . Let's just .......

Doctor : Okay . Let's take a look . Well that doesn't look to serious. You'll

be fine .

Elaine : Please , please . It's really , really itchy .

Doctor writes more stuff in her chart

George : No good ?

Kramer : George . It's the timeless art of seduction . You got to join in the
