6-21 The Fusilli Jerry

All right, Adam, you ready to take this boiler out for a shakedown?

Giddy up.

Now, the first scene is stand-up.

The worst part about a car breaking down is when you're out on the road, you're a guy, 'cause now you have to get out and pretend like you know what you're doing.

[laughs]

You gotta go, "All right, honey.

I'm gonna go check it out."

[laughs]

Walk around the front, open up the hood.

That's good, 'cause it obscures her view.

That's the main reason you wanna do that.

[laughs]

You're looking in there, you know, you're hoping you're gonna see something in there so simple, so obvious, so incredibly easy to fix, even you can handle it, like a giant on/off switch turned on.

All around, man, this is a great bit here.

He starts out with the antiquated notion that, you know, just because you're a guy, if your car breaks down, you gotta act like you know what you're doing.

That's true.

[laughs] Now, Ruining Seinfeld are not auto mechanics, but I'm sure that we know enough about cars that we don't feel the need to know exactly how they work, you know? [laughs]

Yeah.

I don't think I've ever felt the need to act like a man to get a woman to respect me, like saying, "I know what's wrong with this car, babe.

Let me go check it out." You know? It's never been a thing.

[laughs]

I like how you dip into your putty voice, like, just instinctively.

Ah, it's kinda like second nature, really.

[laughs]

I know plenty of women who could fix cars way better than any man I've ever met in my life, you know? Like, a, a lot of girls that I grew up with are, like, diesel mechanics.
