"The Bris" SEINFACT:

In this episode, Elaine describes an uncircumcised penis as having "no face or personality. It was like a Martian."

Seinfeld

It had no face, no personality. It was like a martian.

The ending of this episode is a tribute to The Godfather, even using the theme music from the movie

Elaine and Jerry become nervous about the religious duties they must perform when they agree to become godparents to the newborn baby, obligated to arrange the bris, which involves booking a mohel and holding the baby during the circumcision. At the bris, Elaine's unstable, shaky mohel arrives (guest star Charles Levin).

  

Jerry: Ah well, if it isn't Shakey the Mohel! Nice job on the circumcision, but it's not supposed to be a finger!

Mohel: The circumcision was perfect. The finger was your fault! You flinched!
Jerry: Oh, who made you a mohel? Whadya, get your degree from a matchbook?
Mohel: (making a sudden movement towards Jerry) You see! He flinched again!
Jerry: Nice mohel picking, Elaine. You picked a helluva mohel!
Mohel: One more peep outta you, and I'm gonna slice you up like a smoked sturgeon.
Jerry: Oh, don't threaten me, butcher boy.

Kramer, disturbed by the concept of the bris, attempts to stop it, and the mohel accidentally circumcises Jerry's finger. The four go to the hospital, where Jerry's finger is attended to. Kramer finds the "pigman" (whom he later discovers is actually a "fat little mental patient") and "liberates" him from the hospital.

    
Kramer: The pig-man! I saw a pig-man! He was just lying there and then he woke up. He looked up at me and made this horrible sound, eeeeaaaahhh, eeeeaaaahhh.

Kramer: Believe me, Jerry. Somewhere in this hospital, the anguished "oink" of Pig-Man cries out for help.
Jerry: Well, if I hear an anguished "oink", I'm outta here.

Kramer: Look, I know what's going on here, the oink, oink. Look here you little quack, there was a half man, half pig holed up in that room, there. Now where is he?! Where is he?! You know what I mean - pork, sausage, A-deek-a-deek-a-deek th-th-th-that's all folks.
