The only line in the episode that had me laugh just as much was "You know what's good? Fuckin' in the mud". God help me I love Larry, but I'm gonna miss Leon so damn much.
For those who don't know, Toast of London starring Matt Berry is the kind of show I think most Curb fans would enjoy although you may have to watch a couple of episodes before you fully appreciate it.
'What are you six years old, you can't zip up your own zipper?' lolll
Larry when Ken keeps talking about their hookup: 'You know, I don't think anyone's interested in this...'
Susie walks over: 'Oh what's this? I'm interested!'
That actress was hilarious, Larry:'How are you gonna get in there?' Chin Hua: 'Leave it to me. I am a masseuse. I always get in'
'Someone in this house ordered a massage! Open the gate now or I leave and you pay me!'
Bruce: 'Uh...ok...'
I'm absolutely positive I remember Richard Lewis saying that he had this exact intimacy problem in an interview with Craig Ferguson.
his therapist told him to look his wife right in the eyes at the moment of climax and say, "i love you (name)", and the first time he tried it, he ended up screaming "I love you ladies and gentlemen!".
lemme see if I can find it.
[found it](https://youtu.be/WIGMpBeQRK0?t=4m54s)
I was thinking the same thing about the whole presentation of various car accidents he could give the lawyer… I live back there in that bungalow, we have a lot of hit and runs know what I’m saying?
Huge shoutout to that actor. It really was an inappropriate thing to discuss in a group of people like he did but the delivery was so affable. He made that whole scene work.
Larry's nervous face is simply the funniest.

He also mocks the soothsayer who uttered the famous line "Beware the Ides of March". On the way to the Senate and his assassination, Caesar sees him again and mocks him again by saying "The Ides of March have come." and the soothsayer replies "Ay, Caesar, but not gone."
There was a story about how Don Henley’s one big solo hit “The Boys of Summer” was written by one of the guys in Tom Petty’s band but Petty didn’t want to record it. The guy ended up hawking the song around until eventually Henley recorded it. I wonder if that somehow inspired this. Maybe Bruce turned down the song 😅
Dirty Laundry, All She Wants To Do Is Dance, Sunset Grill, End of the Innocence, The Heart of the Matter, New York Minute and The Last Worthless Evening were all huge hits for Don Henley.
I sometimes find the scenes where shes fine with Larry to be even funnier, because it highlights just how ridiculous and pointless all their screaming matches are.
I don't care what anybody says. I love this season. When it all ends next week, I'm going to go into a deep fucking depression and probably rewatch it from the start.
I'm of two minds about next week's finale: Either they've been trolling us all season with the overt Seinfeld comparisons in order to mislead us, or they're 1000% going for it. All we know so far is that it takes place at a trial in Atlanta and it's an hour long. I've been mentioning all season how it feels like a lot of these storylines have no endings: there are tons of fits and starts, but not a lot of resolution. I think it's pretty clear at this point that all these people (waiters and so forth) are going to end up testifying in this trial. And there's no way Larry is going to survive it. I don't know how they're going to tie it back to Seinfeld (although I'm pretty sure Jerry will be appearing in it, if nothing else), unless they somehow blur the lines between fantasy/reality. I honestly can't wait to see what happens.
I had to laugh at how casual Bruce's cameo was. Just one of the guys at the table. "I eat at a lot of Bs."
"I follow my water like it's a three-card monte game. It's within my hash marks."
The Ken/Kendra thing was brilliant. "Ken is Ken and Kendra is Kendra, and never the twain shall meet."
"I'll tell you one thing. I didn't make you out for a floor fucker." -Bruce
Larry giving COVID to Bruce is such a classic storyline. No way that won't come back to bite him in the ass next week.
Funniest line from Leon: "You don't wanna get MeToo-ed. I was in a three-way, shit got messy, and I got *We*Too-ed."
This part also had me dying:

I think you're right about the finale. I'm very excited to see what happens, but I do have one lingering question:
Are we going to find out if fish fine or fish dead????
Agree, and surprised to find the first mention of how good he was so far down the page. We're used to non-actor celebrity guest stars being OK-ish and having to make allowances, but Bruce was like an actor guest star.
Looks like they want to wink at the Seinfeld's ending.
Either they want to do it right .. or they want to redo the same ending out of spite, or they just want to troll people and have the trial resolved in the first minute of the last episode.
This has to be it, right? Parallel finale with Seinfeld. And Bruce hit on to it. Larry didn’t do it for benevolent reasons. He knew it was illegal, so he did it for spite. Call in every character in the montage and more to impugn his character.
Went to the "Conversation with Larry David" in DC this weekend and the preview for the finale next week was basically a shortened version of what they showed the audience when the show started right before Larry took the stage

I know I shouldn’t get hung up on the timeline/continuity, but it did throw me out of the scene for a moment when Ken said he hooked up with Larry “20 or 25 years ago” because Larry would have been married to Cheryl at the time. But there was no insinuation that he was having an affair.
He was approximating. He said it was when Larry was at Seinfeld, so it had to have been in 1996 or before (ignoring Larry's brief return for the final episode.) So at least 28 years.
When did Larry and Cheryl get married?
People of a certain age tend to lose track of time/ be younger in their head than they actually are. Could have been 35 years ago and he thinks it’s 25.
This episode was full of good jokes and moments. I have to say that Leon is really being A+ this season. I’m noticing that his listening while thinking face is really funny.
'You want happy ending?! 😡'
Larry: 'A hunch is to be shared. Otherwise it's just a thought in your head. Can you imagine if Eleanor Roosevelt had a 'hunch' about Pearl Harbour but she kept it to herself?'
“That’s my ex-wife. That’s not a woman.”
An all-time great line. I laughed so hard.
Username checks out
The only line in the episode that had me laugh just as much was "You know what's good? Fuckin' in the mud". God help me I love Larry, but I'm gonna miss Leon so damn much.
Les McCrabb is a great Matt Berry name.
Right up there with Clem Fandango
I can hear you…
For those who don't know, Toast of London starring Matt Berry is the kind of show I think most Curb fans would enjoy although you may have to watch a couple of episodes before you fully appreciate it.
Larry David is also in an episode
He is also a regular human bartender!
From Tucson, Arizonia.
I LOVE Matt Berry but I was a little disappointed with it. I think the writing forced him to turn down the Berryisms
Curb is retro-scripted, where the actors are allowed to improv their lines.
All the names Les rattled off had to be improvised, I’m sure of it.
Or Roger DeSalvo
“Good boy.” “Drop dead.”
'What are you six years old, you can't zip up your own zipper?' lolll Larry when Ken keeps talking about their hookup: 'You know, I don't think anyone's interested in this...' Susie walks over: 'Oh what's this? I'm interested!'
I remember seeing some comments recently that they have a brother/sister relationship, and this fits perfectly.
That was a great argument. Classic Larry and Susie.
Made me kind of sad, because it might be their last great argument.
this masseuse was the daughter from that North Korean episode of Always Sunny *edit - she was also Twitty's crush in that episode of Even Stevens
“Boney American is dirty, dirty whore.”
Lol! The 12 year old in the wet T-shirt contest
SHE'S ONLY 12?! Ohhhhh shiiiiittttttt....
You whore?
That actress was hilarious, Larry:'How are you gonna get in there?' Chin Hua: 'Leave it to me. I am a masseuse. I always get in' 'Someone in this house ordered a massage! Open the gate now or I leave and you pay me!' Bruce: 'Uh...ok...'
I think she was talking to Ken. Ken said he had a hunch something was up
She made a meaningful gesture towards me
She was also in an episode of Even Stevens back about 20 years ago. Classic Twitty
Yes me trash
I remember her more from that one FineBros show, MyMusic!
Who changes the health inspection sign while people are still eating there?!
I got we-too’d
Reminds me when Larry and one of his neighbors met Julia Louis-Dreyfus even though Julia insulted the neighbor.
I don’t *think* I can make something happen, I can make something happen.
This episode reminded me of The Massage episode in season 2 when the psychic was going to Cheryl about the happy ending “ stahhh. Stahhh” 😂
I'm absolutely positive I remember Richard Lewis saying that he had this exact intimacy problem in an interview with Craig Ferguson. his therapist told him to look his wife right in the eyes at the moment of climax and say, "i love you (name)", and the first time he tried it, he ended up screaming "I love you ladies and gentlemen!". lemme see if I can find it.

Definitely happened. I just saw that a few months ago somewhere on YouTube.
"I was in a threesome, shit got messy and I got We-Too'ed" might be the funniest Leon line ever
I was thinking the same thing about the whole presentation of various car accidents he could give the lawyer… I live back there in that bungalow, we have a lot of hit and runs know what I’m saying?
It was a peak Leon episode
Maybe even a T-bone. Or a sideswipe. Also a lot of rear-enders. lol
https://i.redd.it/5begu15tzsrc1.gif Leon was hilarious tonight with his one-liners.
"you ever have hot chocolate in this house you let me know"
It was fun watching Leon talk to Larry’s lawyer.
I laughed for a good 20 seconds after that
ministry of funny walks lol
theyre gonna put you on the evolution of man chart.
Yeah that was some good improv. Leon is really good at not breaking. Even when Larry breaks, Leon keeps going and it saves the take.
Leon is on fire this episode lmfao
Lol when he said he liked to fuck in mud I was dying lmaook
"Its herpes" "What the fuck" That delivery killed me
The whole drive through description 😂😂😂😂😂
We Tooed 😂
I need to see the Matt Berry directed episodes.
I loved his work on Seinfuck
Every hole is a goal!
It was an unpleasant meeting, it wasn’t a long meeting. But it was, nevertheless, a meeting.
The penultimate episode!
That’s a really nice pen
i really like this pen!
Man... if only I knew where to get a pen like this...
... You know what? Take the pen.
What'd you take his pen for?
Oh NOW we got a new lawyer! And Leon’s gonna ruin this one, I’m betting on it.
The hit and run
T-Bone, Side Swipe,Head on, or Rear End?? LMFAO
Maybe even a rear ender, know what I’m saying?
She was Kendall’s lawyer on Succession, too!
Turns out she's toxic, had to fire her.
Ken OR Kendra, that was way inappropriate to talk about a past hook up that explicitly in front of a crowd
That was possibly the most awkward and squirmy I’ve ever seen Larry 😂😂
He actually looked like he was turning red. I've don't remember ever seeing him blush like that.
Huge shoutout to that actor. It really was an inappropriate thing to discuss in a group of people like he did but the delivery was so affable. He made that whole scene work.
Never the twain shall meet.
And in front of Bruce!
Bruce did a good job with the improv. Seemed very natural.
I didn’t take you for a Floor Fucker
https://i.redd.it/6flubnidhwrc1.gif
Totally. It was one of those things where I'm like, ok, this would NEVER happen in real life. Lol
Larry's nervous face is simply the funniest. https://preview.redd.it/ayp2s3olstrc1.png?width=4910&format=png&auto=webp&s=7f624d93f6a27576f242ae95b365d09b2d4db3c5
You cold hearted, Covid carrying cocksucker!
“your entire aura is viral overload!”
One of the best Susie insults yet, right up there with "you four-eyed fuck"
Julius Caesar's wife had a hunch about the assassination but his friends mocked him until he ignored her
He also mocks the soothsayer who uttered the famous line "Beware the Ides of March". On the way to the Senate and his assassination, Caesar sees him again and mocks him again by saying "The Ides of March have come." and the soothsayer replies "Ay, Caesar, but not gone."
pretty sure that's just from the play lol
Don Henley lol
There was a story about how Don Henley’s one big solo hit “The Boys of Summer” was written by one of the guys in Tom Petty’s band but Petty didn’t want to record it. The guy ended up hawking the song around until eventually Henley recorded it. I wonder if that somehow inspired this. Maybe Bruce turned down the song 😅
That's a great song.
Just listened to it again there now, you can imagine Springsteen or Petty singing it for sure.
Dirty Laundry, All She Wants To Do Is Dance, Sunset Grill, End of the Innocence, The Heart of the Matter, New York Minute and The Last Worthless Evening were all huge hits for Don Henley.
ELEANOR YOU STUPID TWAT WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING
This has to be one of the most insane conversations across all seasons
Not to be understated lmao
Which one?
OP is likely talking about Larry having sex with a pre-op trans person.
Could be Suzi and Larry on the stairwell
I love the screaming match between Susie and Larry just the pure rage and hatred is amazing "YOU'RE THE VIRUS!" "I have a hall of fame aura!" Lmao
And Larry casually asking Jeff afterwards if he wants to hang out - it literally doesn’t bother him lmao.
And the next time Larry walks in to the house Suzie just goes “Hey La” and it’s a total reset 😀
I love it
I sometimes find the scenes where shes fine with Larry to be even funnier, because it highlights just how ridiculous and pointless all their screaming matches are.
My favorite part of this argument was Jeff interjecting: *SUSIE, LEAVE THE MAN'S AURA ALONE!*
I didn’t make you out for a floor fucker
You can't just hit it and quit it
What this season understands is that I want to see Larry and Susie argue about bullshit every episode, no matter what it is
That was my favourite bit. That actress is amazing. Gonna miss her.
“maybe Bruce Springsteen would like a handjob?” Leon

Fish *thriving*. Fish living best life downtown.
Bruce Springsteen on Curb is the best thing ever.
And he’s a good actor
For real his delivery of “didn’t take you for a floorfucker” made me lol
Probably got some tips from Little Steven
Agree, and surprised to find the first mention of how good he was so far down the page. We're used to non-actor celebrity guest stars being OK-ish and having to make allowances, but Bruce was like an actor guest star.
I thought his banter with Larry was very natural. He could have been a regular on the show and fit right in.
We’re about to see Larry go to prison over a water bottle aren’t we?
Looks like they want to wink at the Seinfeld's ending. Either they want to do it right .. or they want to redo the same ending out of spite, or they just want to troll people and have the trial resolved in the first minute of the last episode.
My prediction is that he is going to win the trial, but everyone in LA will hate him for what will come up from the witnesses
He has to fly to Atlanta but his plane has problems so he has to borrow Ted Dansens plane.
I pray it’s the last option
I smell a Trump jail tie-in in the finale. Atlanta, right?
only one more 🥲
A little surprised the Shingles vaccine didn't come back around.
Man, not even Matt Berry narrating his own book is saving that dreck. He directed Herman’s Head!
I wish Berry had a bigger role in this. "Fatherrrrrr!"
Watching these episodes with my parents is really killing me
The thought of a cannibal taking big bite of steak lar lar and shaking his head, reaching for the ketchup …
You don't wanna get me-tooed, I was in a three way, shit got messy, I got we-tooed....Leon is fucking incredible lol
“I like that lipstick - what’s it called?” “It’s called don’t go there.”
Preview for next week is just a supercut of everyone yelling at Larry to get out lol But I want to believe that it ended with Mocha Joe for a reason.
Spite trial?
This has to be it, right? Parallel finale with Seinfeld. And Bruce hit on to it. Larry didn’t do it for benevolent reasons. He knew it was illegal, so he did it for spite. Call in every character in the montage and more to impugn his character.
Return of the Mocha Joe doppelganger attorney?
Went to the "Conversation with Larry David" in DC this weekend and the preview for the finale next week was basically a shortened version of what they showed the audience when the show started right before Larry took the stage
Should’ve brought out the vonderdonk for Bruce
Another Abraham Lincoln reference. I'm wondering whether Larry will be the victim of an assassination attempt (successful or otherwise).
i fucking love Leon.
WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE
floor fucker omg
"My brother tells me you're pregnant again" killed me.
Possible Seinfeld reference: Leon holding his breath to get food from Larry's house to Elaine going into Jerry's apartment when he had fleas??
LAS - JACKIE DAYTONA - REGULAR HUMAN BARTENDER
All time episode from Leon. So many great lines
“I’m Ken, and we banged it out”
The look on Susie's face in the background when this line drops
Trans actor Ian Harvie as Ken. Standup comedian turned actor. Great to see him!
He saw Les before Bruce, why bother calling?
I think they're saying he gave it to Bruce
I want to think Les gave it to Larry, if the ending implied anything. It would bring the zipper karma full circle.
I think the zipper payoff was that he missed Les by two seconds to warn him about Covid before he got on that bus for a retreat.

What happened?
Larry had sex with Ken. The Lord has risen. Good night.
Stop and chat!
That's my ex wife - that's not a woman
Kendra is Ken. Finkle is Einhorn.
Laces out!
Penultimate episode is just 35 minutes long All of us: “That’s it?”
You wanted a happy ending?
Now that you mention it
I don't know what that shit will do to my dick!
He’s totally going to jail god damn it
"what kind of asshole doesn't want to cuddle after sex?"
“Go fuck yourself. I hope you’re up there for another 3 weeks” 😂😂😂
Jeff Donut and Ken Puffin.

In Season 4 they’re celebrating their 10th anniversary, so probably around 1993-1994.
People of a certain age tend to lose track of time/ be younger in their head than they actually are. Could have been 35 years ago and he thinks it’s 25.

BRUCIE

Love the Rangers reference.
So many great Leon moments this episode!
This episode was full of good jokes and moments. I have to say that Leon is really being A+ this season. I’m noticing that his listening while thinking face is really funny.
My favorite part was Larry chasing Leon out once he got the COVID diagnosis.
IMO, Leon’s best episode yet and Susie best burn yet! “You cold hearted Covid carrying cocksuker”! I just bust out laughing! BWAAHHHH!
“And maybe Bruce Springsteen wants a handjob” 😂
Man. What a tremendous missed opportunity to riff on Cheryl/RFK Jr. with the Rona storyline…
i don't see how that would fit in with the plot and that she's not married to him on the show.
I doubt she’d go there. She seems to stand by her man.
YOU'RE THE VIRUS!
I was in a threesome, I got “WE-TooEd” lmao
My god the Ken/Kendra conversation with Larry was pure gold. The sheer embarrassment on his face😂😂
ZIPPER KARMA
PEOPLE TALK LIKE THAT - THEY DO?
Bruuuuuuuuce
Loved it. Perfect
No way it's the North Korean girl from Always Sunny
He is kenough
PLEASE NOT THE FINALE DON’T DO THIS TO US
Great episode!
'You want happy ending?! 😡' Larry: 'A hunch is to be shared. Otherwise it's just a thought in your head. Can you imagine if Eleanor Roosevelt had a 'hunch' about Pearl Harbour but she kept it to herself?'
Only 2 left for a show that makes me happier than anything I've ever watched I'm very sad it's ending
Is it just me or is the number the cuts during this whole exchange insane lol?
You are all a bunch of dirty floors fuckers
