  14: SHRIMP INCIDENT
Thursday 24 February 2005 11.30pm-midnight
 
 

Larry suspects that HBO exec Allan Wasserman has lifted some shrimp out of his Chinese food following a take-out mix-up.

  KEYWORDS

  Make the Nice: Being polite and pleasant in meetings and social situations: "You've gotta make the nice."

  It's Not TV: Larry is confounded by HBO's slogan; "'It's not TV'? It's TV - what do they think people are watching?"

Later, when he and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are pitching their new show to HBO, Larry just can't leave the subject of the shrimp alone. The situation isn't helped when Larry's labeled a misogynist after uttering the "c word" at a poker game.

As if that's not enough, Wasserman learns from certain "eyewitnesses" that Larry beats his wife.
