Well the thing is, the disturbance was so minor, it might even have just been a hiccup. And I think that's self-evident.

Rich Fulcher is an American born comedian who usually stars in U.K. TV shows like the brilliant Snuff Box with Matt Berry and The Mighty Boosh. I was happy to see him in a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

[@jvlook1]

[@pauldevlin3841]

“Oh, well-that’s a very good question…and I’m on top of it.” Best answer ever. Fits every question my boss asks me.

[@Flem1337]

The disturbance was probably another customer complaining about the manager telling em about a disturbance in the kitchen, that happened to be someone else complaining....

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

Flem1337 wow, you just blew my mind. So you're saying this is like Curb meets The Twilight Zone....nice

My uncle once removed was named Nikos Para, and he never got credit when people amended common words with his name, thinking they were jazzing up the convo. A parachute is still a chute.

And I haven't even mentioned words like parapet, paradox or paraphernalia! People got lots of mileage out of those, but he got bupkis.

At the start of the clip Larry asks, "what's the disturbance? Is the chef angry? Did someone drop some pots and pans?". At the end of this episode, when he's trying to escape from the cop via the kitchen, he ends up making the chef angry because he knocked over some pots and pans. After which the manager goes on to tell another party that there's been a disturbance, in his own vague way. Great continuity. Each episode of Curb feels so tightly knit and well written. One of the best comedy shows I've seen.

But I got reminded of this clip and told them about it and they burst out laughing. Mind you, I didn't even show them the clip. Just narrating the manager's dialogue made them laugh. The manager is such a genius character. Larry David coming up with this situation and character is just .. what a legend.
