Have U Heard??

Larry David’s (somewhat) lucky streak from the last episode seems to have come to an end. He offends even more people than usual in this episode, beginning with a man sitting next to him on a plane wearing shorts whose legs he calls grotesque. This criticism later comes back to haunt him when he knocks on colleagues doors in his gym shorts begging them to take him in so that he won’t have to face Mary Jane Porter’s boyfriend, who is waiting for Larry at his house after discovering the bandage from his hot towel wound in Mary Jane’s garbage pail.

Making a guest appearance is Christian Slater, whom Larry insults during Ted and Mary Danson’s anniversary party when he preaches to him about the unwritten law of caviar allotment before ratting him out to Mary for taking to much. Larry proceeds to mortify Jeff and Suzie by ruining their present to the Danson’s, which is their tone-deaf daughter singing a song for them.

He crushes more dreams later in the episode, when he spots the Dansons with Jeff and Suzie while on a date at a restaurant with Mary Jane Porter. He expresses resentment over not being invited to dinner with them after giving them a gift certificate to the restaurant as their anniversary present, then interrupts an opera singer a few seconds into his performance.

Also a victim of Larry’s lack of social etiquette is his doctor, who is forced to endure an extensive accidental phone call due to Larry insisting that there be “more openness in the doctor business”. The question of whether or not Larry will be able to cast Cheryl as George’s wife on the reunion show remains, as does how severe of a beating he gets when Mary Jane’s boyfriend finds him. Where was Leon Black when Larry needed him?
