written by Alec Berg & Jeff Schaffer, directed by Andy Ackerman
original airdate: January 19, 1995

Elaine and Jerry discover that Tim Whatley “re-gifted” a label maker. Kramer and Newman engage in a ferocious game of Risk. George feels threatened by his girlfriend’s male roommate. Everyone’s got Super Bowl fever and Jerry’s sickened by who ultimately joins him at the game.

FEATURED LOCATIONS

The Improv

Jerry’s Apartment
Jerry and Elaine engage in a game of cat and mouse with Dr. Tim Whatley, to determine if he regifted, degifted, and “is using an upstairs invite as a springboard to a Super Bowl sex romp!” Kramer and Newman engage in an epic battle of risk, using Jerry’s Apartment as a neutral playing ground.
