George and Kramer sit one side of a booth, facing Jerry. George is wearing a
purple shirt. Kramer’s eating a sandwich heartily. George looks as if he might
never want to eat again.

GEORGE: My father opened his shirt...

JERRY: Yeah, and?

GEORGE: (nods to Kramer) Tell him, Kramer.

KRAMER: (matter of fact) He had breasts.

George nods, Jerry has a confused expression. Kramer keeps on eating. Jerry
thinks for a moment, George can’t even look anyone in the eye.

JERRY: What d’you mean, breasts?

GEORGE: (waves his hands) Big breasts!

JERRY: So what? A lot of older men have that.

KRAMER: No, not these. These were real hooters.

Jerry pulls a face at the thought.

GEORGE: I was throwing up all night. It was like my own personal Crying Game.

KRAMER: Well, maybe you’re gonna get ‘em too, George.

GEORGE: (worried) Yeah, that’s right. What if it’s a genetic thing, like father
like son?

JERRY: But, your father’s not bald.

GEORGE: No, no no. That skips a generation. The baldness gene comes from your
grandfather.

JERRY: Then I suppose the bosom gene comes from your grandmother.

George snaps his finger and points, in agreement with Jerry. He continues to
look deeply worried.

KRAMER: You know, Frank can’t be too comfortable with those things clanging
around. He should wear something for support.

GEORGE: You mean like a bra?

KRAMER: A bra is for ladies. I’m talking about a support undergarment
specifically designed for men.

JERRY: Boy, that brain never stops working, does it?

KRAMER: I tell you, I’m gonna go noodle with this.
