"The Sniffing Accountant" is the sixty-eighth episode of the hit sitcom Seinfeld. This was the 4th episode for the 5th season. It aired on October 7, 1993.
George's father gets him an interview as a brassiere salesman. Evidence points to Jerry's accountant being a cocaine user. Jerry, Kramer and Newman set up a sting to find out the truth. Elaine's new boyfriend is perfect except for his unwillingness to use exclamation marks.

- Although Elaine and her boyfriend, Jake Jarmel, break up during this episode when he doesn't put an exclamation mark on a post-it note, they briefly get back together in the season finale, "The Opposite."
- Christa Miller had a brief role as a bra saleswoman, in which George touched her briefly, resulting in his firing. She would later play a different role as George's girlfriend in season 6's "The Doodle."
- The mohair sweater Kramer wears in the bar is the same sweater worn by Mrs. Sokol's daughter in Season 3's "The Boyfriend (Part 2)" on her second date with George.
- Kramer's impressive display of simultaneous drinking and smoking required two takes to get right. After the first attempt, Michael Richards let out a loud and unscripted (albeit humorous) belch that necessitated a second try at the scene.
- Michael Richards considers this episode one of his favorites.
Kramer: Here's to feelin' good all the time. (He then drinks an entire beer with a lit cigarette still in his mouth)
Barry: Listen, don't take this personal, but when I come back I'm sitting over there. Kramer: Whatever turns you on.
Elaine: Why don't you ask your mother. You live with her now don't you?
Elaine: Don't forget to wash your hands before supper.
Kramer: I suck 'em down like Coca-Cola
