In 1992, “Seinfeld”. It looks harmless enough: an innocuous Tweety Bird Pez dispenser, just a simple gift from Kramer to Jerry. During Georgeʹs girlfriendʹs piano recital, Jerry takes the dispenser out of his pocket and not so innocently places it in Elaineʹs lap. This gesture may have elicited a polite smile or a quiet grin from someone else, someone with more self-control. That someone isnʹt Elaine. She dissolves into a Wagnerian opus of laughter. Her giggles become chortles, which become Klaxon-like guffaws. As Jerry looks on with stern disapproval, she exits the somber concert hall, still roaring. Noel, the humiliated pianist, declares that she will never forget that laugh. True to her word, at Jerryʹs apartment a few days later, Noel recognizes Elaineʹs distinctive laugh — and promptly dumps George.
