Despite not understanding art, George succumbs to pressure to buy a painting from Nina, not realizing that it costs $500. The group gets box seat tickets for Yankee Stadium, and Elaine attends after giving her boss a fake excuse, but an altercation gets her photo printed in the paper incriminatingly.
