Meanwhile, over in Elwood City, the third grade class at Lakewood Elementary was working hard, as usual, when Principal Haney interrupted.

"Sorry to interrupt, but I've just wanted to inform you that the Magic Toolbox will be filming another 'let's talk to some kids' segment in this class" he said.

The kids seemed unimpressed.

"And comedian Jerry Seinfeld is going to be part of it. He'll be talking to you about comedy."

Suddenly, the class was abuzz with energy.

"Wow, Jerry Seinfeld coming here" Francine said "this is bigger than…who was the last big celebrity to visit here?"

"Matt Damon" Brain said.

"Oh, never mind then" Francine said "nobody's bigger than him."

"Who's Jerry Seinfeld?" Arthur asked.

"He's a comedian, and he has these really funny jokes about the little things in life" Buster explained "for example he might say, 'hey, what's the deal with Mr. Ratburn? He's a rat, but he's not on fire.'"

"That doesn't sound very funny" Arthur replied.

"Well his jokes aren't exactly like that" Buster said "but he must be pretty funny, cause I heard he made a pilot for TV. And they don't give TV shows to just anyone."

"I guess it'll be fun" Arthur said, "it can't be any worse than the last time the Magic Toolbox came here."

"I have an announcement too" Muffy said "yours truly, Mary Alice Crosswire, is going to be the model for the new children's line of clothing in the prestigious J. Peterman catalog. I'd like to invite all of you to come to the photo shoot, as it will be a historic day."

"Maybe for you" Sue Ellen muttered under her breath.

"OK children, now that those things are out of the way, it's time to get back to what's really important" Mr. Ratburn said "math problems."

"Ohhhh" groaned the kids.

Meanwhile, Jerry and friends had arrived in their hotel in Elwood City, the Elwood Arms.

"What kind of breakfast do you think this place serves?" George asked Jerry as they were in the elevator.

"I don't know."

"You think they have bagels? I could really go for a bagel."

"I'm sure they have bagels" Jerry replied.

"If they don't, I guess I could have like, a waffle or something. Or eggs."

"Fine, whatever."

"Maybe some toast…"

"No one cares about the damn breakfast!" Elaine shouted "you'll find out tomorrow!"

There was awkward silence the rest of the ride up. The elevator finally stopped at their floor and they made their way to the rooms. The one shared by George & Jerry was quite spacious.

"Not bad accommodations" George commented "I got to hand it to that Peterman, he knows how to treat his employees. Almost makes me wish I worked for him."

"You, work at a magazine? I'd like to see that" Jerry commented.

"I could work for a magazine" George replied "you know, if it was People or Playboy or something. You know, a classy one."

"Of course" Jerry replied "nothing classier than ladies taking their clothes off."

George ignored him "do you think I should get the bed tucked?"

"Okay, let's not start this again."

-----

Meanwhile, Kramer & Elaine set up in their room.

"Do you feel comfortable sharing a room with me?" Kramer asked "you know, me being a male and all."

"I'll take my chances" Elaine replied "now remember, tomorrow we have to meet this Crosswire kid at the studio. All you have to do is take the pictures, can you handle that?"

"Of course. I took pictures of you, didn't I?"

"Yeah, and thanks sooo much for that."

-----

The next day, the kids at Lakewood were getting ready for the Magic Toolbox crew to arrive. All that is, except for two.

"I think the next step in our relationship is to come up with pet names for each other" Sue Ellen told Arthur, as they opened their lockers. "I picked 'sugar' for you, cause you're so sweet. So do you have one for me?"

"How about…honey?" Arthur suggested "cause you're…sweet like honey?"

"That's basically what I said" Sue Ellen replied "you need to come up with one on your own."

"Sorry, I'm not used to this" Arthur explained "so the Magic Toolbox is coming here again, you excited?"

"You bet, I'm more prepared this time" she explained "I've even got a great joke if they'll let me tell it. Say, Francine talking about Matt Damon just reminded me, how did things go with that show he wanted to make about you?"

"Not great" Arthur said, "the only network that was interested was PBS."

"Too bad, I would've liked to watch you on TV" Sue Ellen replied "Oh wait, I still can, after this segment airs."

-----

The two kids walked back to the classroom. The Magic Toolbox crew was setting up, while some of the other kids prepared.

"Why did the chicken cross the road?" Binky said "because I wanted to eat him. Wait, that's not very funny."

"Do you guys see Mr. Seinfeld anywhere?" Buster asked, as Arthur took his seat, "I can't wait to meet him. I want him to sign my joke book."

"I think you're getting a little overexcited Buster" Arthur explained.

"No I'm not. How would you feel if Bionic Bunny came to school?"

"I see your point."

Meanwhile, Jerry & George were on their way to the 3rd grade classroom.

"So Jerry, I figured I'd tell some jokes to the kids, what do ya think?" George asked.

"I'm not sure your jokes are appropriate for kids" Jerry replied.

"I can clean them up."

"Okay, how about this" Jerry explained "you come on camera and use the term, 'a barrel of laughs.' Then I'll say something like 'why do they call it that? Is there an actual barrel somewhere, filled with laughs? And if so, who fills it?'"

"That's brilliant Jerry!" George replied "so all I have to do is say 'a barrel of laughs.'"

"Well, not just that phrase, I mean you can say other things" Jerry explained "just make sure you end with that phrase."

"Could I tell a joke?"

"Sure, as long as it doesn't involve nudity, swearing, or sexual content."

"You're really limiting me here."

-------------------------

Next time, Jerry arrives and the spot is filmed. Will the kids do well, or crash and burn? (What do you think?) Also, George gets himself a temporary job at Lakewood.
