Four single friends -- comic Jerry Seinfeld, bungling George Costanza, frustrated working gal Elaine Benes and eccentric neighbor Cosmo Kramer -- deal with the absurdities of everyday life in New York City.

Kramer tries to scam the post office; Elaine has a rash but has trouble finding a doctor who will treat her.

The mentor of Jerry's latest girlfriend (A.J. Langer) is dating a rival (Steve Hytner); Elaine must fire a troubled employee.

Elaine's American Indian friend thinks Jerry is a racist after he gives Elaine a cigar-store Indian statue as a present.

Jerry is unhappy about receiving bundles of small residual checks from a Japanese TV show; Kramer makes friends with a group of Japanese tourists.
