This is how Kramer decided he needed an intern after deeming himself "too busy."
Kramer: Look at this, they are redoing the Cloud Club.
Jerry: Oh, that restaurant on top of the Chrysler building? Yeah, that's a good idea.
Kramer: Of course it's a good idea - it's my idea. I conceived this whole project two years ago.
Jerry: Which part? The renovating the restaurant you don't own part or spending the two hundred million you don't have part?
Kramer: You see I come up with these things, I know they're gold, but nothing happens. You know why?
Jerry: No resources, no skill, no talent, no ability, no brains?
Kramer: (interrupts) No - no time! It's all this meaningless time. Laundry, grocery, shopping, coming in here talking to you. Do you have any idea how much time I waste in this apartment?
