AboutAriela Expertise I own all the DVDs, and have watched all of the special features and commentaries on all the episodes, most of them several times. I have whole sections of dialouge memorized as well as knowing a lot of little details. I'm good at placing a random quote, character, or scene, into its correct episode and season. I can also fill you in on all details of any minor character that ever appeared on the show or any answer any minor triva-type questions. However, I don't know much about the actor's real lives, or products seen on the show.
Question Hi Ariela,
Is it me, or was there an episode that Elaine gives a long drawn out "Thank Youuuuuu!" as if to emphasize the point? I could have sworn it was mentioned in one episode and then she says it again in a later episode. Please help me, I'm going crazy thinking about it!
Answer Hi Jay,
I'm so sorry but for some reason I didn't get this e-mail until now and I just saw that you submitted it forever ago! I'm not sure what happened there, but really sorry you were made to wait.
Anyway, the only time I can think of where this happened was during the 2nd season episode "The Revenge." This is during the scene when Elaine is keeping George's boss busy so he can poison him:
ELAINE: Hi.
LEVITAN: Hi.
ELAINE: [sneezes]
LEVITAN: God bless you.
ELAINE: Oh! Thank you. Thank you very much. [blowing nose] Really. I mean
that. I am not one of those people who give insincere thank you's. No
sir. No sir. When I thank someone I really thank them. So, thank yoooou!
LEVITAN: You're welcome.
ELAINE: People don't say "God bless you" as much as they used to. Have
you noticed that?
LEVITAN: No.
ELAINE: So, I'm going to a nudist colony next week.
LEVITAN: Nudist colony?
ELAINE: Oh, yeah. Yeah. I love nudist colonies. They help me..unwind. Aah!
LEVITAN: I've never been to a nudist colony.
ELAINE: Oh, really? Oh, you should go. They're great. They're great. Of
course, when it's over, it's - it's hard to get used to all this
clothing, you know. So, a lot of times, I'll just lock the door to my
office and I'll just sit there naked.
LEVITAN: Seriously?
ELAINE: Oh, yeah. I usually work naked a couple hours a day.
I hope this was a little helpful, and again, I'm really sorry about the delay.
