Present Day: Covid 19 Quarantine
The Masks
Elaine and David Puddy are in the middle of their 18th round of dating. Their trip to Italy has just been cut short due to the outbreak. All the better since they were getting annoyed with each other already.
After fighting the crowds at the airport in a desperate attempt to get home, they get a surprise at JFK US Customs that they have to self-quarantine -TOGETHER- for 14 days.
Stuck now in Elaine& #39;s apartment, we see them go through several breakups and make-ups. Before settling down for an evening of Netflix and chill on the last night of their quarantine together, Elaine calls up Moe& #39;s Diner to order a big salad and some soup.
Because one of the cooks at the diner has come down with coronavirus, they say that the order may be an extra 30 minutes to an hour delayed. Elaine, with no compassion, sighs and says ok. She complains loudly to Puddy that she won& #39;t be tipping to which Puddy takes offense.
Another argument and breakup leads to both Elaine and Puddy yelling at each other how glad they are this is their last night in quarantine together.
"If I have to spend another 14 SECONDS with you, I& #39;ll lose my mind"
"Well, you& #39;ve already lost it!"
"If I have to spend another 14 SECONDS with you, I& #39;ll lose my mind"
"Well, you& #39;ve already lost it!"
Their shouting is interrupted by a knock at the door- dinner from Moe& #39;s has arrived- FINALLY! Elaine opens the door and is greeted by a tired and sickly delivery boy. While they sit down on opposite sides of the room to eat, heavy coughing is heard coming from the hallway.
The next morning as Puddy is walking out of the door with his bags packed, two CDC agents in full PPE come to their door and ask if they recently ordered from Moe& #39;s Diner. Elaine, seconds away from saying goodbye to Puddy forever, lies and says no.
They learn from the CDC that a delivery boy from Moe& #39;s has tested positive for Covid 19 and the agents have been going around to each place he delivered to in the past week to put them under strict quarantine for 14 days.
Just as the CDC agents and Puddy are about to leave, they notice a Moe& #39;s branded delivery bag in the trash. A quick glance from the CDC agents and Elaine knows the jig is up. She yanks Puddy back into her apartment and slams the door. 14 more days.
Kramer, on a tip from his friend Bob Sacamano, has bought 25 cases of N 95 masks to sell at a markup. After the shipment arrives and the boxes fill his apartment, he realizes that he didn& #39;t buy N 95 but rather N 9.5 masks, which are used solely by sheep shearers.
With no buyers and no room left in his apartment, Kramer has made himself home on Jerry& #39;s couch. He takes the 6 feet rule seriously, and constantly uses two yard sticks poorly taped together to keep Jerry at bay.
Kramer manages to unlock Jerry& #39;s phone and orders several thousand dollars of Instacart groceries delivered to the apartment. After watching the news, Kramer is now worried about catching Corona from his newly ordered goods.
He has set up an elaborate "disinfection station" where he takes the groceries and washes all of them with soap and water and even goes so far as to put some things in the dishwasher. The boxes of cereal on Jerry& #39;s shelves are visibly wet and soggy. Soap suds are everywhere.
Jerry, desperate to get out of the house, answers a call from his Uncle Leo.
He is afraid to go to the grocery store but she really needs some spaghetti noodles for his dinner. He asks if Jerry can come bring some noodles.
He is afraid to go to the grocery store but she really needs some spaghetti noodles for his dinner. He asks if Jerry can come bring some noodles.
He arrives at the grocery store only to see a line out the door. He goes to the last person in line and asks what is happening.
"It& #39;s old people hour at the store. Only people over 65 can get in for another 50 minutes."
"It& #39;s old people hour at the store. Only people over 65 can get in for another 50 minutes."
Jerry heads to the front of the line and tries to enter. He is stopped by a large man who asks him how old he is. Jerry responds, 66, but the man looks him up and down and asks for ID. Jerry feigns offense and tries to argue his case, but the man will have none of it.
Relegated to the back of the line, now even further back if he had just stayed, he sees and old person walk past him to the front of the store. Jerry quickly pulls him aside and asks if he can do him a favor.
He asks if the person could go in and buy him a box of spaghetti noodles. They look him up and down and say, "for how much?"
Jerry offers $3, and they can keep the change.
The person scoffs and turns to walk away.

Jerry stops them again. "Ok ok, $5, but that& #39;s waaaay over the asking price."
"$20"
"TWENTY DOLLARS FOR A BOX OF SPAGHETTI! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR OLD MAN MIND!"
"Yeah, I think that& #39;s fair. I& #39;m old, I could die from this corona you know. It& #39;s hazard pay."

With no other options, Jerry relents.
"Ok, $20. I& #39;ll meet you right here when you are done."
Time passes, we see the line slowly trickle into the store leaving Jerry the only person now outside. People come and go as they please. He becomes more and more anxious.

Finally the man comes back outside. Relived and a bit frustrated Jerry asks what took so long.
"Sorry man, they were out of spaghetti noodles, but I got you gluten free macaroni instead."
"GLUTEN FREE!! MACARONI!! Not& #39;s not even the same shape!"
"Hey man, a noodle& #39;s a noodle!

George is been ordered to work from home. He is ecstatic until his boss mentions he will monitor employee& #39;s online status on Skype. We see George yell at his computer as it goes inactive every 5 minutes. He can& #39;t update the settings on the janky, offbrand laptop Kramer sold him.
His solution is to tape the mouse to an oscillating fan. This keeps his computer awake and his boss happy, while also giving George the freedom to do whatever he pleases. He goes to his couch to watch Tiger King and take a nap.
While George sleeps, his boss sees that he is online and starts a Zoom conference call. George& #39;s janky computer automatically answers.
With no one on the screen, his boss begins to worry. Then he hears growling and talk about feeding someone to tigers.

Suddenly a SWAT team is busting down George& #39;s door, startling him awake. They order him to get down on the ground and keep shouting, "WHERE ARE THE TIGERS! WHERE ARE THE TIGERS!"
We close on a shot of George, face down on the ground. He coughs, causing everyone to run out.
