The Foundation

Months after her death, George is ready to move on, but Susan’s parents want to keep her memory alive. Kramer becomes a karate master, where his opponents are equals in his skill level, but are lacking in size. Jerry runs into Dolores, you remember “her name rhymed with a female body part” in “The Junior Mint,” she suggests that they get together again. Peterman has a breakdown and goes to Burma leaving Elaine in charge; a position she is reluctant to assume. Kramer makes a speech that inspires Elaine to go and take charge of J. Peterman. Inspired by a comment that Jerry made, a foundation is established in Susan’s name, which will take up all of George’s free time. Jerry and Dolores do get together; however, when she hears why Jerry’s engagement was broken off, she leaves commenting that he still hasn’t matured. Elaine sees Kramer’s opponents, vents her frustration and takes him down in front of the class. Jerry decides to research breakups and the effect on future relationships. Kramer’s classmates meet him after class. George discovers everything he lost when he lost Susan.
