	Liz:	What's ''Seinfeld-Vision''?
	Jack:	Well, l realized that NBC owns hundreds of hours of footage of Seinfeld from his massively successful television series, ''Seinfeld.''
	Jack:	So my old tech guys were able to digitally capture Seinfeld, and now we can basically make him do or say whatever we want. So for the month of October, all of our prime-time shows will feature a computerized guest appearance from Mr. Jerry...

	Liz:	Uh-huh.

	Liz:	l know.
	Jack:	...and you are not over Floyd.
	Liz:	No, l really am, Jack. l'm telling you, this is my year. l feel like the show's gonna be great. And l'm very positive that l'm gonna meet someone else.
	Jack:	Lemon, women your age are more likely to be mauled at the zoo than get married.

	Liz:	Glad we're both doing so great.
	Jack:	Put Floyd's name on that quilt.

	Tracy:	How many years have you known me, Liz Lemon?
	Liz:	One.
	Tracy:	So you know l like to minister to transvestite prostitutes.
	Liz:	l don't think l did know that, no.

	Tracy:	l pull over and l say, ''You don't have to live your life like this." "You can be a freaky-deaky and do data entry.''

Number two -- Kill Seinfeld, then kill myself. Number three -- Kill Seinfeld, flee to Svenborgia, then kill myself.
	Liz:	Jack, l'm not having the best day either.
	Jack:	Number 7 0 -- You seduce Seinfeld.
	Liz:	Now, why is me seducing Seinfeld all the way at 70?
	Jack:	Number 71 -- l fake a hurricane and all regularly scheduled programming is preempted.
	Liz:	These are terrible ideas.
	Jack:	There are no bad ideas in brainstorming, Lemon. l'm sure l'll come up with something at the eleventh hour. l always do. 'Cause l'm just that good. [ lnhales deeply ] Mmm.

	Frank:	All right, uh, l'm in charge now. Everyone go home.
	Liz:	No. l'm not crazy, Frank. l am making a statement -- that, if need be, l will marry myself. And l am not embarrassed that you guys are seeing me wearing this.
	Toofer:	So you're intending to wear that all day?

	Liz:	l couldn't even hold it together one week.
	Liz:	l'm not you, Jack.
	Liz:	l can't have a heart attack and pretend like it never happened. l can't break up with someone and immediately recover. l'm not you. l'm just me.
	Jack:	Lemon, don't ever say you're just you. Because you are better than you. And l am not going to let you give up. This is going to be our year. Now give me the ham.
