Larry lies to Jeff's wife to protect his infidelities. A fire alarm at Banana Republic leads to Larry walking around with pants which contain a security device. Larry meets a police officer named Krupke and sings the West Side Story song. Also, Larry yells at some lemonade stand kids and Elisabeth Shue auditions for the Seinfeld reunion. For so many ideas floating around, the ending was brought together nicely with LD admitting that he happens to enjoy wearing ladies' panties. This episode made even less sense and was more improbable than most, but overall, like last week's episode, this is exactly what Curb Your Enthusiasm is: a bunch of seemingly unrelated topics merging into comedy gold. B+
Other thoughts:
Jerry Seinfeld did make an appearance during a casting session, but was wasted. If you have Mickey Mantle in the dugout, why not start him instead of having him pinch-run in the 8th inning? The last 2 episodes of the season promise to use him more with the titles, "The Table Read" and "Seinfeld".
Leon could have been useful dealing with the panties's situation.
Was that Ben Affleck escaping the fire alarm behind Larry?

Very good episode - agree with your Jerry comments. I especially love how Jeff says "many different places" when he is showing LD how to act nonchalant about happening to enjoy wearing ladies panties. Classic last shot, but they shouldn't have cut back to LD, just ended it after Jeff's line. Bride and I both thought it was Affleck.
Seeing Luke Duke (threesome offeror) in a Curb episode was a real linkage to when I was 8, by the way.
May have been Bo Duke, but I didn't recognize him until I saw his name on the credits. Luke Duke was in Taking Chance, methinks. Whither Daisy?
