Kramer convinces Jerry to get a free Armani suit from hack comic Kenny Bania.

The story

Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

Comedian Kenny Bania shows off his unneeded Armani suit, and forces it on Jerry just so that Jerry will owe him a meal. George has good rapport with a waitress at Monk's, but asks her out and bungles the date. Unable to show his face at Monk's anymore, he tries to transplant his friends to nearby diner Reggie's instead. Elaine brings home a no-good boyfriend from England, who sponges off everyone and goes boozing and womanizing. Kramer gives up his refrigerator so that he can only eat food fresh, but cannot sate his girlfriend's ravenous hunger. Bania traps Jerry in his obligation by ordering only soup instead of a meal.
