George picks up the habit of
swearing from some visitingHouston Astros representatives. During the time of theNew York City Marathon , Elaine has a Trinidadian runner named Jean-Paul Jean-Paul as her house guest. Jean-Paul had overslept and missed the big race at the lastOlympic Games , and Jerry obsesses with ensuring that it doesn't happen again. Kramer installs ahot tub in his apartment. The hot tub heater breaks while Kramer is asleep in it, causing the temperature to plummet. To fix it, Kramer gets an industrial strength heater, which shorts out the electricity in the building, shutting off the alarm clocks and causing Jean-Paul and Jerry to oversleep. Jean-Paul manages to get into the race but is burned when he grabs Kramer's cup of hot tea (which he mistakes for a cup of water) at the finish line. This was not intentional, Kramer was struggling to reheat his core temperature and Jean-Paul took his hot tea by mistake.
