Frank Costanza : Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reach for the last one they had - but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way!
Cosmo Kramer : What happened to the doll?
Frank Costanza : It was destroyed. But out of that, a new holiday was born. "A Festivus for the rest of us!"
Cosmo Kramer : That musta been some kind of doll.
Frank Costanza : She was.
