John Mollica is the guy that used to bartend at the Comedy Club.
He is friends with Richie Appel, who's been doing comedy in L. A. for a few years but just go back to New York and is messed up on drugs.
Elaine suggests an intervention, but according to John Mollica, Richie never listen to anyone. Except of course Jerry. He'd listen to Jerry. Jerry would have to be involved. He really respects Jerry.
John Mollica just desperately wants to be Jerry. He's obsessed with Jerry and chases Elaine romantically in the episode.
While at the intervention, John Mollica is talking to Elaine with a tissue up his nose, all but admitting he needs a tissue up there all day because of a long-standing medical condition. However, earlier in the episode, when he first sees her outside of the piano recital, he doesn't have one.
