INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – DAY
[Jerry is sitting on the couch, reading a newspaper. Steve bursts into the apartment, looking excited.]
Steve: Jerry, I’ve got a great idea for the Mets! Dollar hot dog night!
[Jerry looks up from his newspaper, unimpressed.]
Jerry: (sarcastically) Wow, what an original idea.
Steve: (confused) What do you mean? It’s a great promotion!
Jerry: (sighing)The Phillies had dollar hot dog night for years. They had to stop because fans were throwing hot dogs on the field and having food fights.
Steve: (dismissively) Oh, come on. That won’t happen with our fans.
Jerry: (raising an eyebrow) Really? You don’t think Mets fans are capable of causing a little chaos?
Steve: (confidently) No way. Our fans are different.
Jerry: (smirking) You know you’re right. Nobody is going to Citi Field on a Tuesday night to pay $30 to park just to get a $1 hot dog.
[Kramer and Newman burst into the apartment, looking excited.]
Newman: Did I hear something about dollar hot dog night?
Steve: (grinning) Yeah, tonight at Citi Field!
Kramer: (enthusiastically) Jerry, you’ve gotta go! Dollar hot dogs are the best! I once ate 50 of them in one game!
Jerry: (disgusted) That’s revolting, Kramer.
Kramer: (proudly) It’s a skill, Jerry. A skill.
[Steve and Kramer high-five, while Jerry shakes his head in disbelief at their enthusiasm for the idea.]
INT. CITI FIELD – DAY
Steve: Chad, I want to make sure everything is set for our dollar hot dog promotion. Is Mr. Weiner on board?
Chad: (nodding enthusiastically) Yes, Mr. Steve! Mr. Weiner is totally on board. He loves the idea.
Steve: (smiling) Great! Make sure you tweet about the promotion to get the word out.
Chad: (grinning) I’m on it, Mr. Steve! I’ve got the perfect tweet in mind.
[Steve pats Chad on the back and walks away. Chad takes out his laptop and starts typing.]
[Cut to:]
INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – DAY
[Jerry, and Elaine are hanging out in the apartment. Jerry’s phone buzzes with a notification.]
Jerry: (looking at his phone) Oh no…
Elaine: (concerned) What? What is it?
Jerry: (reading aloud) “Get ready for dollar weiner night at Citi Field! You’ll love the way Mr. Weiner’s 6 inches of hot meat feels in your mouth. #DollarWeinerNight #MrWeinerKnowsHowToSatisfy”
Elaine: (cringing) Oh my god…
Elaine: (laughing) I can’t believe they actually tweeted that!
Jerry: (shaking his head) Chad strikes again. Steve’s going to have a fit when he sees this.
Elaine (smirking) I mean, it’s not wrong. Mr. Weiner probably does know his stuff when it comes to hot dogs.
INT. CITI FIELD – EVENING
[Steve is walking through the concourse when his phone starts buzzing with senior staff telling to check twitter.
Steve: (to himself) Chad, please tell me you didn’t…
[Steve’s face turns red as he reads the tweet]
Mets Employee: Steve, we have another problem…..
Steve: now what?
INT. SNY BROADCAST BOOTH – NIGHT
[Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, and Ron Darling are in the booth, looking out at the chaotic scene unfolding at Citi Field.]
Gary: (on air) Well, it looks like we’ve had to stop the game due to the dollar hot dog promotion getting a little out of hand. Fans are throwing hot dogs onto the field and having a full-blown food fight in the stands.
Ron: (shaking his head) This is unbelievable. I’ve never seen anything like it.
Keith: (chuckling) You know, this reminds me of my days back in St. Louis.
Gary: (cautiously) How so, Keith?
Keith: (grinning) Well, let’s just say I knew how to handle my wiener back then. I could make those buns steam all night long.
[Gary and Ron exchange shocked and amused looks.]
Gary: (trying to steer the conversation back) Okay, Keith, I think we get the picture.
[Cut to:]
INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
[Jerry and Elaine are watching the broadcast, cringing and laughing at Keith’s comments.]
Jerry: (shaking his head) I can’t believe Keith just said that on live TV.
Elaine: Well, you gotta hand it to him. The man does know his way around a wiener.
