In The Bottle Deposit (2), the season finale of Seinfeld season 7, we find Jerry and George trying to figure out how to break up with their girlfriends yet again. Meanwhile, Elaine is desperately trying to come up with an excuse to avoid attending a dreaded office party.

As Jerry and George plot their latest escape route, they come up with a scheme to return a pile of empty bottles to Michigan in order to collect an out-of-state bottle deposit. They enlist the help of Kramer, who they remember has a friend heading to Michigan in his mail truck.

Elaine, on the other hand, has a whole other set of problems as she tries to come up with an excuse to avoid attending a work party hosted by her tyrannical boss, Mr. Lippman. She ends up telling him that she has to attend her aunt's funeral, but is soon caught in a web of lies when she gets into a car accident and Mr. Lippman offers to drive her to the funeral himself.

Meanwhile, Kramer's friend Newman (who else?) decides to get in on the bottle deposit racket and takes off for Michigan himself, leaving Kramer and the gang high and dry. Jerry and George soon realize that they have completely underestimated the amount of bottles they need to return in order to make any real money, leaving them with a whole lot of glass to lug around for no reason.

As the episode barrels towards its finale, all of these disparate storylines converge in typically hilarious Seinfeld fashion. Will Jerry and George finally be able to shake their significant others? Will Elaine be caught in her web of lies? Will anyone actually make any money off of these damned bottles? Only time (and Seinfeld season 8) will tell.

The Bottle Deposit (2) is full of the kind of fast-paced, interwoven storylines and razor-sharp wit that have made Seinfeld such a beloved show. Fans of the show will undoubtedly savor every minute of this season finale, which has all of the hallmarks of a classic Seinfeld episode – the perfectly-timed punchlines, the absurd plots, and the brilliant chemistry between the cast members. This episode is a must-watch for anyone who loves smart, side-splittingly funny comedy.
