It all began with The Slaw. The impetus of an idea, a trip to the mall, and the characters created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David were all we needed to put together an unforgettable half hour. The episode never made it to the air, but the script remains a classic for all time. Follow Jerry, George, Kramer, and Elaine as they venture to the mall in search of a candy bar, sunglasses, and the world's finest cole slaw.

Keep in mind that this script was originally written in 1994, and the characters changed a lot over the years. And while it may look like we've stolen ideas from episodes that have aired, you'll just have to trust that they were ours first.
