Once in a lifetime, a
politician comes along

who's not a politician,

who's a person who cares
about our community.

And that man is here with us today.

Please welcome the next mayor
of Santa Monica, Jimmy Mayhew!

Thank you for that very
nice introduction, Susie.

You know, you can sit here,

but you can't go to Broadway
when I'm selling out

show after show for ten weeks.

We have an obligation imbalance, okay?

'Cause I don't do anything
to invite you to,

but you do things to invite me to.

I offered you...
I offered you opera seats.

You mean up there on the
side, looking down?

- The Prince Charles?
- Exactly, Mussolini's view.

The Mussolini view?
Yeah, those are good.

No, I said, "Myoo-solini."
You said, "Muss-olini."

No, it's not "Myoo-solini"
like "muesli."

- It's not like a cereal.
- No, it's like-- I, I compare...

I confuse it with Mucilex.
I take that for my coughs.

Now, as a resident of Santa Monica,

I wanna give everyone in Santa Monica

the ability to achieve higher education.

You never call me.
You always pick the restaurants.

What are you-- What are you--
Are we married? I don't--

I don't understand.
Am I dating you?

You hate people.

- I do. So what?
- Your wardrobe sucks.

My wardrobe? You're talking
about my wardrobe?

- Yeah, put this wardrobe down.
- Look! Look at you.

- I'm one of the best-dressed...
- You're the worst--

- ...comics that ever lived.
- ...you're the worst-dressed person I've ever seen.

This? You're comparing this--

I can't even look at you.
I get depressed.

When are you gonna die?
Will you just...

- Will you, will you please die?
- Don't hex my-- Don't hex my--

As you know, we have an
election coming up.

And the incumbent,
Jay Reimenschneider,

entered the office of mayor
with great aspirations,

but he failed to deliver for
the people of Santa Monica.

- I will not fail. I have many goals...
- Hey.

That's the guy who's
in, uh, my new show.

Young Larry. He's playing
me, when I was in my 20s.

Hey.

- Hmm?
- Would you mind tapping him?

- Would you tap him?
- No.

- Excuse me, could you--
- What?

Just tap him on the shoulder.
I wanna--

I wanna get his attention for a second.

Maybe he does
not want to be tapped.

- [Larry David] Believe me, he wants to be tapped.
- No.

And if he knew that I was here,

- trying to tap him and unable to tap him...
- I am not gonna tap him!

- ...he'd be upset.
- I do not like being tapped,

and I will not tap a stranger.
Could you two please be quiet?

- Why don't you be quiet?
- [Irma Kostroski] Hey.

You two have been talking, and talking,

- and talking, and talking. Stop!
- Okay, you're the one talking.

- I'm... You're talking.
- You're talking. You're talking.

- No, you're talking.
- [Larry] You're talking.

No you're talking, and you keep talking!

Where'd you get that dress anyway,

at a substitute teacher
designer warehouse?

Just-- just stop. You know,
you mid-level celebrities,

you think you're so smart
with all your banter.

- Just stop!
- Shh!

They won't shut up.

[Jimmy] Health and safety

are the cornerstones
of a great democracy.

They are the foundation of the house

where the American dream lives.
And to me,

the American dream means that every person...

Don't tap me again.
If you touch me again--

Don't worry, turn around.

- Don't touch me again.
- I'm not touching you.

- [Larry] Turn around!
- I wanna work for you.

I need your vote.

Thank you.

Wow.

- [Susie] What the fuck is going on?
- Goodbye.

Get the fuck outta here!

- [Irma] Bye.
- What the hell's going on?

[Irma] You can't ask
to use the bathroom.

[Larry] Why? What am I
supposed to do? How long--

Listen, you never pee when you canvass.

[Irma] Good afternoon!

We are campaigning for Jimmy Mayhew

for Santa Monica Mayor.

Larry? I'm Stan's wife!

Stan, prop master on your show.

Really? Oh, my God.
You live here?

- Yes.
- [Larry] That's amazing!

[Stan] Fucking rat poison!
Has to be vegan, of course.

[Stan] You know how hard they
are to find in the Valley?

I'm worried sick about him.

- [Stan] Gen Z!
- That's your husband?

- Yeah.
- [Stan] Little shit!

He's having a lot of trouble with
a young actor on your show.

He's wanting some snack for a scene.

- Oh, my God.
- He's got my Stanley running around

all over town like a blue-arsed fly.

[Stan] He didn't even give me gas money!

Do you think you can come in and
have a quick word with him?

- Yeah, of course.
- Okay. Thanks, Larry.

[Stan] Bloody, now it's
puffs, for fuck's sake!

[Larry] Hey, Stan.

- Oh, Larry.
- Hey.

- Welcome to puff paradise.
- What's going on?

Ditch the kid, Lar.
He's had me drive all over town

- for the last two days, okay?
- Oh, Jesus.

Everything I give him, he just rejects.

He rejected these because he
said they were too "'90s."

And he's looking for a '70s vibe.

These ones here are too salty.
Too spicy. These?

Not vegan, or too vegan.

Too vegan? What does too
fucking vegan mean, Larry?

- He's such an asshole, Stan.
- [Stan] Okay, I know, if there's anything...

- Such an asshole.
- [Stan] And it's everything else.

- The pens, the cups.
- He wants the cups...

Yeah, he wants the cups
to be dolphin-friendly.

[Larry groans] -What the fuck
does that even mean, Larry?

- I don't know. I don't know.
- [Stan] It's crazy!

And if he flicks his fingers
at me one more time,

I'm telling you now, man,
I'll shove those fingers

so far up his arse, they'll
pop out of his mouth

and he can use them as a hand puppet.

- Oh, boy.
- [Stan] Ridiculous.

So I have a backup, Larry.
Okay? Zero calories in these.

He's gotta love these.
Look, they look like something

from fucking Starsky and Hutch.

Seventies written all over that, Lar.

He can't reject those.
If he turns these fuckers down,

I will fucking strangle him!

So, it turns out he did
this movie when he was 17,

- and had sex in her trailer.
- He was 17?

He claimed that he was abused,

and got a 400,000-dollar settlement,

and now he's playing the victim!

This was his luckiest day of his life.

- [Larry] The luckiest day of his life!
- [Leon] He's ungrateful.

This little motherfucker

got a piece of ass, which is priceless.

Then he got 400,000 dollars
on top of that shit?

- Yeah.
- [Leon] And the movie paid him.

He got paid three fucking times,

- and he still complains.
- Exactly.

How old were you when
you first got laid?

Fourteen years old.

- Fourteen?
- So if you were in the Boy Scouts,

you would've got your,
uh, intercourse badge.

[Leon] Fuck, yeah.
My first time tapping

wasn't some gorgeous-ass actress.

It was this lady that made
donuts and shit, donut shop.

You don't see me coming
back years later,

asking for 400,000 dollars in donuts.

[Leon] I could've.

Cream-filled, jelly.
All that shit.

I tapped the lady that made the holes,

you understand?

Hi there. Good afternoon.
Uh, before I take your order,

I wanna let you know that we
do have a special today.

There's a fresh Maine lobster,
and there's only a few left.

- [Jeff] Oh!
- Drawn butter, lemon.

- I know who loves that.
- Yeah, sounds pretty, pretty,

pretty good.

I'll take one, and could you
go in and secure it for me,

so they don't get taken?

You got it. Absolutely.
I'll be right back.

Dig this, after we eat lunch,
I'm gonna go vote for the mayor,

so I don't have to wait on
all those lines after.

Oh, yeah, that's not a bad idea.

[Richard Lewis] Someone wanna come with me?

I can't. I got a golf lesson.

Berman's widow took my time yesterday,

so I gotta do it today.

What was I gonna do?
It's the widow, right?

Mr. David, I am so sorry.

I know you were interested
in the lobster special,

but by the time I got
back to the kitchen,

we only had one order left,

so we decided to give
it to another diner.

- What? Who?
- Um, Mrs. Berman.

I don't know if you know,
she's a recent widow.

But we have a lot of other delicious
dishes-- -Wait a second.

- We have a--
- [Larry] That woman?

Uh, yes. Mrs. Berman,
there in the black.

That's Ruth Berman!
She's not the widow.

She's Berman's ex-wife.

They've been divorced for ten years.

She's as much a widow as I'm a widow.

Yeah. She took my golf lesson yesterday

by claiming she's a widow,

- and now she's got my lobster?
- Yeah.

- [Richard] Oh, boy...
- It-- it's not right.

- Uh, sir--
- [Richard] Oh, boy, there he goes.

He's off. This is good.

Yeah, we thought you
wouldn't come. I'm so glad--

- Ma'am?
- Larry!

- How's the lobster?
- It's wonderful.

- Oh!
- You really should try it sometime.

- So happy to hear that.
- [Ruth Berman] Yeah.

- And how are you doing, Ruth?
- Actually, not really well.

- [Larry] Aw. Yeah.
- This experience of losing

- the love of my life...
- Oh, yeah.

...has been the hardest thing
I've ever gone through.

- [Larry] It must be so awful.
- You have no idea.

And yet you managed to have a...

golf lesson yesterday.

Saul would've wanted me to do that.

- Oh, absolutely.
- He loved me, Larry.

And I adored this man.

- Oh, yeah.
- You have no idea.

I'm on to you, Ruth Berman.

You're saying you're a widow to get widow privileges.

- Okay?
- I'm sorry, excuse me?

You're not a widow, okay?

You're the ex-wife of a dead man.

- Oh, please.
- What's wrong with you?

She just lost her husband!

[Larry] Oh, she lost her husband?

She lost her husband when
he caught her having

an affair with a tennis instructor.

- Excuse me?
- [Larry] Oh, come on! Don't--

This is very painful, Larry.

[Larry] Oh, yeah.
Oh, please. What an actress!

- It's just like Saul. Oh, my...
- [Larry] Give me a break!

You're driving him crazy.

I'm not here to make friends.
I'm here to make art.

Yeah. Well, he's gonna
have a nervous breakdown,

not like the fake trauma
that you went through.

- Wow.

Oh, that's where you're gonna go?

- It was real trauma.

I suffered very, very real abuse.

No. Of course not.

Hi, everybody. Welcome
back to KTLA 5's coverage

of election night across the Southland.

Let's take you now to Santa Monica,

where Jimmy Mayhew and the
incumbent Jay Reimenschneider

are neck-and-neck at this point.
Take a look at these numbers.

With 82 percent of the vote in,

only 89 votes separate
these two candidates.

We're good. Yeah, we're good.
We got this.

[Angela] So, Larry, I hear

you're one of my husband's
biggest supporters.

Councilwoman Irma tells me
that you were out with her

- just really canvassing and...
- Oh.

- ...going and knocking on doors...
- Enjoyed it.

- ...and getting out the vote.
- Enjoyed every moment of it.

Met some wonderful people.

And I think we changed come minds.

- [Irma] I think so too.
- You know?

- So nice to catch up with you both.
- Yes.

I'm gonna go check on Jimmy.
All right, bye.

You've got nothing to worry about.

It's gonna be great.

- He's got this. He's got this.
- The groundswell is there.

- There's such a feeling going.
- Totally.

Oh, isn't she lovely?

- Oh, yes, yes, so--
- They're just such lovely,

- lovely, lovely people, Angela.
- Oh, lovely, so, so, lovely.

- And the family, they--
- Oh, the family, my God.

- Those children are so polite.
- Those kids. Have you ever seen

- kids so gorgeous in your life?
- I know, they're gorgeous,

- and they helped out.
- Oh, my God.

- Everyone was lovely.
- Lovely.

Everyone was lovely.
I gotta eat.

I gotta eat something.
I'm so nervous, my--

I got a little... I gotta get
rid of that gas bubble.

- You want a samosa?
- No, thank you.

- Mini quiche?
- Nah.

- Crudité?
- No, thank you.

- [Irma] No?
- No, I'm good.

- I don't want anything.
- [Irma] All right.

Hey.

Hey.

So, you're dating the
councilwoman now, huh?

I wouldn't say "dating."
I would say, um,

you know, I'm, like,
exploring the situation.

Really? You said she was the
most obnoxious woman alive.

I stand by that statement.

- [Susie] Mm-hmm.
- And yet for some reason...

I'm inexplicably drawn to
that which repels me.

You're so full of shit.
You're up to something.

- I know you too well.
- No!

- What, I-- I can't find love?
- Don't make me laugh.

- The results are in

for the Santa Monica
mayoral contest, and wow.

With 100 percent of the
precincts reporting,

the winner is Jay Reimenschneider.

- Oh, my God!
- Oh, no!

With all precincts in now, it appears
as if Mayhew lost by one vote.

Oh, my God.

- Oh, no, no!
- One vote?

- Oh!
- That's historical.

I'm not sure that's
ever happened before.

Whatever lazy piece of shit
didn't bother to vote

is gonna have a hard
time sleeping tonight.

- How you lose by one vote?
- I don't know.

- This is ridiculous.
- So, if anybody out there

decided not to vote today
for whatever reason,

you could've changed the
future of our city.

[Susie] So true.
One vote makes a difference.

- [Irma] One vote!
- [Susie] This is why you...

- [Larry] It's outrageous!
- How do you lose by one vote?

[Asa shouting] I know!

I know how we lost by one vote.

Larry David thought the
line was too long,

so he didn't vote.

You didn't vote?

- Is that true, Larry?
- What?

- [Susie] You lazy shit!
- No, that's not true, it's not true, it's not true.

[Asa] I watched the whole thing.

I watched you walk away from the line,

and throw your voting
pin in the trash can.

[Asa] Isn't that right, Larry?

All right, all right, let me
explain what happened, okay?

- One damn vote.
- No! Let me explain! Let me explain!

All the canvassing.
I don't believe it.

I made a deal with a
Reimenschneider voter.

You don't care about Santa Monica.

- You only care about yourself!
- No! I made a deal!

The line was so long, so
we both decided to leave,

because we would cancel each other
out, so it didn't make a difference.

- Bullshit! I call bullshit.
- Absolutely selfish.

The family is lovely,
just lovely people.

Fry him! Fry him! Get him!

What's the difference who voted?

He would've lost anyway.
It's not my fault.

It was that fucking widow,
Ruth Berman!
