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.

Jerry is shadowed by a pesky comic (Barry Diamond); the gang's decision to meet for a movie begins in disaster.

Jerry takes pity on a foreigner (Brian George) when the man's immigration papers are left in Jerry's mailbox.

Jerry and George meet with a skeptical TV executive about their show; Kramer dates Jerry's ex-girlfriend.

An eavesdropping college reporter prints the mistaken story that Jerry and George are longtime intimate companions.
