In the second season of Seinfeld, the series writer Larry Charles wrote an episode titled "Bet", aka the gun, spinning about the purchase of firearms. Louis - Rejfus) declaring that she wanted to buy a gun after her neighbor in her building suffocates. One of the gray friend-on-friend in his apartment, so instead, she ends up buying a toy gun.

However, the "bet" was never made, as both Louis-Dreyfus and director Tom Cheron-like that they discovered on the table realist that the guns were not good for the comedy. Violence with a gun was too real, So both Seinfeld and the crew refused to record the episode. Even one of the NBC directors, Glenn Pandik, considered it to be in poor taste. The script was sheltered and can only be read on the Internet now. Also talk about in length in the special features of DVD Seinfeld.

Of course, when Kibosh was put on the "bet", the show needed a rush replacement script. The shooting had to stay on schedule, which means all the work had to be written in just a few days. Fortunately, the co-creator of the series, Larry David and Seinfeld himself, managed to use the episode scenario entitled "The Phone Message" within 48 hours. Without much ideas, the couple simply reached their personal lives for fodder. It seems that David had a bad habit of leaving very unpleasant phone messages on his girls' answering machines, leading to him to be thrown. David only predicted George (Asoneyson Alexander) who has the same problemAnd the story began to form.

In the "Phone Message", Georgeorje goes on a successful date with a woman named Carol (Tori Polone), which is clearly interested. She invites her to her coffee place, but George is refusing, saying she doesn't drink coffee at night. Carol is disappointed. It's no later, Georgeore realizes that "come to my coffee place" was a sexual invitation. He tries to call her to explain herself and confirms that he is really interested in Carroll, but he must leave a message.

During the episode, Georgeore is called several times, leaving more bizarre messages. It ends up angered for contact breaking. Once Georgeore realizes that it sounds funny, he and the jerryryers plot to be used in Carroll's apartment and replace the cartridge in her answering machine.

David addressed how his personal life informed the messages left by George -in -special features for the DVD episode, citing:

"I left some of the worst messages.

David added that the plot "kidnapping in the apartment to exchange cartridges" was beheaded by a non-produced scenario he had once written about Saturday Night Live. The ideas were all there.

In the story of the "Phone Message", Jerry also has a successful date with a woman named Donna (Grecen German), but everything goes south when he mentioned how much a recent TV diplma for diples. Jerryryers hates that ad and takes Donna's Love Coat about how a bad sign. As the real life is happening Jerry Seinfeld also happened to hate the dockers mentioned in the episode. It is less revealing personal details, but Seinfeld was able to address his experiences in real life.

The "phone message" was completed on time, and no one was wiser. /The film has even declared the "telephone message" classic in the past. A necessity, as the saying goes, is the mother of the invention.
