Susan Ross
[played by Heidi Swedberg]: “Yeah.”
[George uses his finger to draw a number 7 in the
air, accompanying the strokes of his digit with a two-tone whistle.]
Susan: “What is that?
Sign language?”
George: “No, Seven.”
Susan: “Seven Costanza?
You're serious?”
George: “Yeah. It's a
beautiful name for a boy or a girl...”
[Susan scoffs.]
George: “...especially
a girl. Or a boy.”
Susan: “I don't think
so.”
George: “What, you don't
like the name?”
Susan: “It's not a name.
It's a number.”
George: “I know. It's
Mickey Mantle's number. So not only is it an all-around beautiful name, it is
also a living tribute.”
Susan: “It's awful. I
hate it!”
George (angry): “Well,
that's the name!”
Susan (also angry):
“Oh no it is not! No child of mine is ever going to be named Seven!”
George (yelling):
“Awright, let's just stay calm here! Don't get all crazy on me!”—Seinfeld,
Season 7, Episode 13, “The Seven,” original air date Feb. 1, 1996,
teleplay by Alec Berg and Jeff Schaffer, directed by Andy Ackerman
