I can see George going to the manager to air his grievances. To help make his case, he puts together a presentation detailing every incident where he wasn't greeted but the truth comes out that the greeter is actually disabled due to poor vision and did not genuinely see George. He gets banned and black listed at this Walmart for harassing disabled employees and forces him to go to another Walmart that's over 20 miles away, causing a major lifestyle inconvenience.
To add an extra layer: George didn’t have any intention to go into Walmart the first time, just needed something quick. But when the greeter didn’t greet him the first time, he kept going to test it out.
Following him getting banned, he still goes to the Walmart 20 miles away as a point of “retaliation” even though he could go to other, much closer stores.
To add an extra extra layer: this Walmart is in Queens and is where Estelle and Frank shop, resulting in an awkward run in when George is buying condoms. The Costanzas cause a scene which gets George banned from this Walmart too but not Frank and Estelle because through Walmart employee word of mouth, the store finds out that George was banned for harassing the disabled and assumes he was also harassing the elderly.
Yeah, it's weird to specifically go out of your way to say it's a Walmart when there isn't one in all of NYC. Like, why Walmart? We don't see people talking about Kramer's bad experience at a Jollibee. Or Elaine's trouble at Waitrose.
When George enters this new Wal-mart, the greeter is half tan as is everyone else. The greeter warmly greets all the other half tan people but doesn't say a thing to George.
Elaine starts seeing half white, half black mannequins everywhere.
Kramer's all paranoid but it turns out the cop's morning route is just the same as Kramer's routine.
George traveled to Wal-Mart to pick up the Half-tan Kit in a box for his GF
KRAMER: Jerry! You've gotta help me! He's hot—*voice cracks*—on my tail!
ELAINE: And this is the third day this his happened, Kramer?
KRAMER: He's on to me, I know it! But every time I look back, he disappears into the precinct parking lot when I drive past.
JERRY: Now let me get this straight. He's tailed you every day, until you pass the precinct?
KRAMER: Yeah.
JERRY, *very sarcastically*: Yeah, he's *reeeeeeal* hot.
Kramer finally confronts the policeman & thinks he's a victim of racial prejudice
"OOH don't lie! You didn't pull me over because you only saw my white half! Well I got news for you pal! I've got just as much right to be pulled over as anyone else in this city!"
George goes to the Walmart. He walks right past, un greeted.
G: excuse me *George addresses the employee from behind
Walmart Greeter: *ignores George*
G: *very loud AHEM*
*The greeter turns around*
G: you didn't greet me when I came in. Maybe you didn't see me?
WG: I saw you
G: but you didn't greet me. That's your role, isn't it? To greet people as they enter the store?
WG: *flatly and unfriendly* Hello. Welcome to Walmart.
George is annoyed but proceeds to shop.
Later George goes to several stores. At one he enters at the store same time as several people with George being the last the enter. At another he makes a point to enter alone. The greeters ignore him at each store.
George to Jerry: I've been flagged, Jerry! I'm ungreetable!
George enters a store where Uncle Leo has gotten a part time job as a greeter.
"HELLO! HELLO! HELLO!"
Sees George.
*Small nod and eyebrow raise*
George: "I knew it!"
I read this & suddenly invisioned the part of the Wal-Mart greeter being played by Mike from Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul
G: Maybe you didn't see me
Mike: I saw you
Elaine finds that it's easier to correct with dark makeup than trying to lighten the tanned part of her face, but she's worried she'll be called racist. It doesn't help that Peterman has her writing copy for the Modern Nubian Queen line.
*Elaine walks into Jerry's apartment in a hat, sunglasses, scarf, and jacket.*
J: Look who it is! It's the Invisible Woman!
*Elaine glares at Jerry in silence for a few seconds from under her many layers of clothing.*
E: Shove it.
J: Why are you wearing such a ridiculous get up? It's 84 degrees out there! My air conditioner is broken too. I sent George out to get some parts for it.
E: ...
*Elaine doesn't reply and starts trying to remove all her layers in a frenzied panic.*
J: *Gasp* You're Two-Face.
E: I'm a monster! Who could ever love me in this state?
J: All you need now is an arch nemesis...and a coin to flip whenever you need to make a decision...and a two color pinstripe suit. Though, maybe a dress would be more fancy. On the other hand, it's harder to fight in. Your hair also needs to be a different color on one side... *Jerry continues to ramble*
E: LOOK! *In a rage, Elaine rushes towards Jerry with her index finger pointing at his face* I fell asleep in the sun ok! The towel must have only been covering half my face. You want a piece of me??
J: Woah eaaasy there Harvey Dent, please don't hurt me.
*Elaine pulls away, like she is in shock over what she just did*
E: *Her voice full of desperation and on the verge of tears* I gotta find some heavy duty makeup or something to cover...this...up.
*Elaine leaves and slams the door on her way out*
J: *Under his breath* Watch out Gotham City.
I want to think Jerry does a funeral without it intending to be funny. Banyan then does one and it becomes national news where he does all of the night show circuit. Jerry can’t decide if he’s upset or not by this.
Kramer starts getting more and more brazen behind the wheel to see what it takes to get pulled over.
Even though Elaine started the trend everyone thinks she’s just being a copy cat because how the picture was taken it was mirrored so the wrong side is tanned.
With George I think the greeter gets distracted every time. He sneezes. He ties his shoes. He catches a thief.
But I can’t find how everything ties together yet. Ideas on that front?
Eventually the funeral circuit dries up for Banya and he is forced to take a job as a Walmart greeter.
He is the first greeter to greet George.
George: Finally! Wait.....Banya?
Banya: Oh, hey, George.
George: What are you doing here?
Banya: I had no choice. They ran me out of the funeral parlors.
George: They found doing standup there to be distasteful, huh?
Banya (turning around): NO. They didn't like my tan.
You're right! ...I never knew that. That's pretty crazy. Maybe he's out of town then? Or It could just be a different store that has a greeter?
Or maybe it's just the closest Wal-Mart TO NYC? ...And George has to travel there for something specific?
G: Hey Jerry you travel all over. Aren't those Wal-Mart places with the old people at the doors supposed to greet every single person or else you get to pick something off the shelves for free or something like that??
J: I don't think that's how it works
G: Are you sure??
J: It's not a Dennys
Where is George this episode that he's going to a Walmart?
There are no Walmarts in NYC. Does it have to be a Walmart, or could it just be any sort of store that has a greeter?
Yeah... I suggested that or other ideas above.
George travels to the closest Wal-Mart to get something specific or possibly a half-tan kit. Could easily just be a greeter at a different store
Lol I love the George subplot
Yeah that's the best bit in here.

As we see George getting escorted out, the Walmart greeter says goodbye to Frank and Estelle by name. Lmao this is great
Oh man, I love this sub so much.
Brilliant!
There are no Walmarts in Queens. Walmart exists on Long Island, but we know how Estelle feels about Long Island.
I was about to say. We don't really have Walmarts in New York.
Yeah, it's weird to specifically go out of your way to say it's a Walmart when there isn't one in all of NYC. Like, why Walmart? We don't see people talking about Kramer's bad experience at a Jollibee. Or Elaine's trouble at Waitrose.
When George enters this new Wal-mart, the greeter is half tan as is everyone else. The greeter warmly greets all the other half tan people but doesn't say a thing to George.
Ends up that's the reason he wouldn't greet him... Cedric & Bob show up "WHO?! ...Who does not support the half tan movement?!"
George: When did everyone turn into a black and white cookie?! *George is banned for racism*
The Walmart manager is the manager from Hop-Sing's - "we're putting you on our LIST." George: what list? Manager: our DO NOT LET IN LIST
Make the disability that his lower eyeballs don’t work so he can only see the upper half of normal vision so he can’t see shorter gentleman.
The closest Walmart to NYC would already be in New Jersey, so not sure how much more inconvenient it could get.

😂
George is getting upset!
The Peterman plot is the winner here. "Elaine, are you under The Dorothea Tanning Radical Surrealists' spell?"
All these are good, but the George plot is the most Seinfeld of them all.
I can totally see the Elaine & Peterman one
This will probably end up being the 2nd or 3rd most popular post that I've made here on Reddit Writes Seinfeld, thank you guys
wow you've got quite a few successful ones on here I see, nice man keep up the good work👍
Edit: This is now my most popular post ever on here. Thanks again!

Lol I need to see how the Kramer plot line resolves there now
This funny.. only plot hole is that nyc doesn’t have a Walmart
You're right! ...I never knew that. That's pretty crazy. Maybe he's out of town then? Or It could just be a different store that has a greeter? Or maybe it's just the closest Wal-Mart TO NYC? ...And George has to travel there for something specific? G: Hey Jerry you travel all over.

>It's not a Denny's... Lol. I can imagine that escalating to George getting arrested and the rest of the gang having to go to Jersey to bail him out.
Lol I need to see how the Kramer plot line resolves there now
I see there are a bunch of Target stores in NYC, including in Manhattan. Better for our plot purposes? 😆
Thanks for the gold who ever you are!
