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.

George and Jerry are suspected of roughing up Bette Midler in a softball game, giving Jerry's girlfriend, Bette's understudy, a chance to take the stage.

Jerry ends up in a weightlifting contest with an older man (Lloyd Bridges); a beautiful woman (Chelsea Noble) mistakes George for her ex-boyfriend.

George interviews students for the scholarship memorializing his late fiancée; Elaine is hired to ghostwrite J. Peterman's autobiography.

George finds the ideal napping spot at work; Jerry has his kitchen rebuilt; Elaine meets a new beau (Vince Grant).
