Jerry’s car is stolen and he has a conversation with the thief (voiced by Larry David) on the car phone. George takes a job moving cars from one side of the street to the other to comply with alternate side parking regulations, in which he does a predictably shoddy job. Elaine cares for her 66-year-old boyfriend, who has had a stroke just before she was about to break up with him. Kramer gets a line in a Woody Allen film, popularizing the expression, “These pretzels are making me thirsty!” He accidentally injures Allen during the shooting and gets fired from the set. George is also responsible for popularizing the expression as he repeats it several times during the episode.
George then causes a major accident and traffic jam, making it longer for the ambulance to reach Elaine’s boyfriend, and because of this, the movie is canceled and Woody Allen says that he may never shoot a movie in Manhattan ever again.
