“The Strike” is the tenth episode of the ninth and final season of Seinfeld, and the 166th episode overall. This episode first aired on December 18, 1997. It was written by Alec Berg, Jeff Schaffer, and Dan O'Keefe, and was directed by Andy Ackerman.
George, Elaine and Jerry attend Dr. Tim Whatley's Hanukkah party where each receive a card notifying him or her that a donation has been made by Whatley to the "Children's Alliance" in the guest's name. (Elaine is surprised Tim is still Jewish, but Jerry points out it's a breeze to keep the faith when you don't have Jewish parents.) Jerry meets an attractive woman with whom he plans a date. Elaine meets a man in a bad denim vest (Steve) and gives him her fake number. George is offended by Whatley's gift. George is also reminded of the Festivus holiday his father created many years ago. Elaine's quest to become a "Submarine Captain" at a local shop in order to get a free submarine sandwich and a captain's hat is crushed when she realizes she used her punch card at the party to give her fake number to Steve. Kramer gets word he can return to his job at H&H Bagels; he has been on strike for the past 12 years, but because the new minimum wage is the amount the workers demanded, the strike is over. Elaine goes to the place that her fake number reaches, an off-track betting parlor. She wanted to give them her real number so that when Steve calls, she can connect with him; however, the men at the parlor are interested in connecting with her, so she gives the number for H&H where Kramer is working. Jerry meets his date, Gwen, at a restaurant, but it turns out she is two-faced: sometimes she looks great but other times she's plain, depending on the viewer's angle and the lighting. Jerry decides that Gwen looks best in the back booth at Monk's. George uses the Whatley approach when giving out Christmas gifts at Kruger Industrial Smoothing. He makes up his own charity called "The Human Fund". Kramer is intrigued by the concept of the Festivus holiday and contacts Frank, who becomes excited at the prospect of rekindling "a Festivus for the rest of us." Kramer asks to get the 23rd of December off work; when he can not get it, he resumes the strike. Meanwhile, Elaine waits at H&H for a phone call from Steve.
Kramer warns Elaine about the sabotage he committed, causing a steam pipe to burst. The bagel shop fills with steam, making Elaine's make-up and eyeliner run and her hair wet. When Kramer first meets Gwen, he sees her unattractive side and does not recognize her when picketing outside H&H, claiming that she is more attractive than Jerry's actual girlfriend. Gwen thinks Jerry always has them eat at Monk's to keep his real girlfriend from finding out he is cheating on her. George's boss, Mr. Kruger, gives George a check for $20,000 to "The Human Fund" but later the accounting department informs him the charity doesn't exist. George tells Kruger that he passed out the fake gift cards because he didn't want to be ridiculed for the holiday his family traditionally celebrates, Festivus. To prove it, George brings Kruger to his father's Festivus dinner, where Gwen and the two guys at the off-track betting parlor show up. Frank announces the "feats of strength" tradition, demanding that Kramer finish Festivus by pinning him to the floor. To get out of it, Kramer renounces Festivus and claims he has to work a double shift at H&H Bagels. Frank forces George to perform the feats of strength instead.
•This episode popularized Festivus.
•The holiday of "Festivus" was created by Daniel O'Keefe, the father of Dan O'Keefe, one of the show's writers, in 1966, inventing many of the traditions included in this episode, including the airing of grievances. However, a number of the traditions included in this episode, such as the aluminum pole and the December 23rd observance, were not part of the real Festivus.
•At the Festivus dinner, Kruger recognizes Kramer as "Dr. Van Nostrand", a callback to "The Slicer". In that episode, Kramer pretends to be a dermatologist and screens Kruger for cancer. Kramer also faked being Dr. Van Nostrand in "The Package"; that time, he was a doctor (most likely a physician) for Elaine. Kramer also used the stage name "Martin Van Nostrand" when attempting unsuccessfully to audition for the part of “Kramer” in part 1 of "The Pilot".
•Kramer's 12-year-old business card features the name "Cosmo Kramer", apparently predating Kramer's decision to abandon his first name.
