# The Limo (Seinfeld)

"The Limo" is the 19th episode of the third season of the American sitcom Seinfeld (the 36th episode overall). It aired on NBC on February 26, 1992.

## Plot

Jerry flies in from Chicago and George arrives to take him home. George's car has broken down on the Belt Parkway, stranding them at the airport. Jerry points out a limousine chauffeur with a sign saying "O'Brien". Jerry had seen an O'Brien in Chicago complaining to airport staff that he had to reach Madison Square Garden. Since O'Brien's flight is overbooked and he will not be arriving in New York soon, George suggests they pose as O'Brien and his colleague and take the limo home. George assumes the identity of O'Brien, and Jerry makes up the name Dylan Murphy. The chauffeur lets them into the limo and says he has the four passes. George remembers the Knicks are playing the Bulls that night at MSG. Excited at the prospect of seeing the game live and with the driver unable to hear anything behind the window, Jerry calls Elaine on the limo's phone and tells her to wait with Kramer for them to pick them up for the game, and to call him and George by their pseudonyms.
The chauffeur stops to pick up a man, Tim (Peter Krause), and a woman, Eva (Suzanne Snyder), for whom two of the passes are evidently intended. Eva and Tim tell Jerry that they are great fans of O'Brien's newsletter and book, The Big Game, but have never met O'Brien or even seen a picture of him as he is highly reclusive. Eva is very attracted to George and invites him to look over a faxed copy of the speech he is to deliver that night — it is full of remarks expounding antisemitism and white supremacy. A loud bang is heard outside. Tim pulls out a pistol and exits the car, but it is just a flat tire. Preparing for a real attack, Tim pulls out a briefcase of pistols.
A news report reveals that Donald O'Brien, head of the regional chapter of the Aryan Union, a high-profile Neo-Nazi organization, is scheduled to make his first public appearance at the Paramount Theater, adjacent to MSG, to deliver the speech at a rally. O’Brien’s views are described as extreme even by other racist groups, and crowd control officers have lined up several barricades to keep away hordes of protesters.
Kramer comments on how suspicious George and Jerry's meeting arrangements are. Kramer and Elaine run into her friend Dan and his friends, who tell them they are going to the rally to protest O'Brien. Since this is his first public appearance, none of them knows what he looks like. Kramer recognizes the name from Jerry's instructions, and suspects Jerry of leading a double life as Donald O'Brien.
Tim and Eva are outside of the limo with the driver. George comments on Eva’s attractiveness and their mutual connection but Jerry angrily scolds him. Tim comes back and begins to suspect something is amiss, but George bluffs him into exiting the limo again and giving George and Jerry the chance to plan on having the limo drive back to the Upper West Side and jump out when they see Elaine and Kramer. Protesters across the street spot them, forcing all four of them to retreat into the limo. As the protesters chase the limo down the street, the real O'Brien calls the limo to let them know of his delay. Tim and Eva draw their guns and demand an explanation. Jerry, George Elaine and a confused Kramer begin shouting over each other trying to explain as protesters surround the limo and begin rocking it. A furious Eva orders them all out. Elaine and Dan meet again awkwardly while news teams misidentify a panicking George as O'Brien.
