The Phone Message Season 2, Episode 4

George

(excited) So then, as we were leaving, we were just kind of standing there, and she was sort of smiling at me, and I wasn't sure if she wanted me to ask her out, because when women smile at me I don't know what it means. Sometimes I interpret it like they're psychotic or something and I don't know if I'm supposed to smile back, I don't know what to do. So I just stood there like ' remember how Quayle looked when Benson gave him that Kennedy line? That's what I looked like.

Jerry

So you didn't ask?

George

No, I froze.

Jerry

Counter.

George

Oh yeah. So wait, wait. A half-hour later I'm back in the office, I tell Lloyd the whole story. He says, 'So why don't you call her?' I says, 'I can't.' I couldn't, I couldn't do it right then. For me to ask a woman out I gotta get into a mental state like the karate guys before they break the bricks. So Lloyd calls me a wuss.
