Dialogue

 * Jerry: So he starts to get up. He spots the PEZ dispenser on the coffee table.
 * George: Ah, ah, PEZ dispenser.
 * Jerry: He picks it up… he stares at it… It's like he's hypnotized by it. Then he's telling us this story about how when he was a kid he was in the car with his father, and his father was trying to load one of them.
 * George: Well, they're hard to load.
 * Jerry: Tell me something I don't know. So as the father's trying to load it, he loses control of the car and it crashes into a high school cafeteria. Nobody's hurt, but PEZ is all over the car. And the dispenser was destroyed virtually beyond recognition.
 * George: Poor kid.
 * Jerry: So as he's telling the story, he starts crying.
 * George: What did you do?
 * Jerry: What do you think? I gave him my PEZ dispenser.
 * George: Wow.
 * Jerry: Two hours later he checks into Smither's clinic. I talked to the doctor yesterday. He's doing great on the rehab. He's hooked on PEZ. He's eating them like there's no tomorrow.
 * Seinfeld, "The PEZ Dispenser" [3.14], January 15, 1992
