List of Seinfeld episodes

"The Diplomat's Club" is the 108th episode of NBC sitcom Seinfeld. This was the 22nd episode for the sixth season. It aired on May 4, 1995.

Jerry plans to meet Bridgette (Berta Maria Waagfjord), a supermodel, at an airport lounge (the "Diplomat's Club" of the title) after returning from a quick air roundtrip to a "gig" in Ithaca, NY, but his assistant makes the trip a nightmare. Elaine is planning to tell Mr. Pitt she is quitting, but reconsiders when he tells her that she's going to be in his will. George tries to prove to his boss, Morgan, that he is not a racist, as Morgan has been offended when George tells him that he looks like Sugar Ray Leonard ("I suppose we all look alike to you").

Mr. Pitt goes to the pharmacy and mistakes Jerry for a pharmacist, as he is re-stocking a display that Kramer had knocked over. Jerry then proceeds to give Mr. Pitt some medications (this is the only time they meet). Kramer, loitering in the Diplomat's Club waiting for Jerry to return from Ithaca, meets a rich Texan, Earl Haffler, with whom he starts making bets on aircraft arrival times. Later, after losing bets causing him to go into debt to Earl, Kramer calls Newman to bring David Berkowitz's (Son of Sam) mail bag to the airport to serve as collateral so they both can continue betting.

In Ithaca, Jerry's assistant invites the pilot to his comedy routine, then warns Jerry not to be nervous about it, which makes Jerry extremely nervous, causing him to perform poorly, leading the officious assistant to harangue the pilot. Jerry's joke had nothing to do with his reaction to the pilot. When Jerry tries to fly back to New York, the same pilot, flying the return flight, throws him off the plane, delaying the flight. The assistant rents a car and tries to drive Jerry back, but gets lost and drives into a swimming pool, which leads to TV news coverage.
