#23: Why a Cape? Who Wears a Cape?
Larry David, the show’s co-creator, made several appearances on Seinfeld. In one episode, Jerry and Elaine spot George’s father in the city while they’re running errands. They don’t stop and say hello to him because he’s with someone. This stranger is a man dressed in a cape, and naturally, they find this rather odd.

Jerry later tells George that they saw his dad but didn’t say hello, because a man in a cape accompanied him. Later on in the episode, this leads to an argument between George and Mr. Costanza. In the end, the caped lawyer ends up saving a woman’s life. We never find out why he was wearing a cape.
