Plot summary

While Elaine housesits for Mr. Pitt, Jerry's plans with her are derailed when he makes an enemy of a passive-aggressive doorman on duty. Kramer uses George as his victim to show some tourists "a real New York mugging". George's parents' separation has left Frank living with George, who desperately entreats his mother to take his father off his hands. Kramer, discovering that Frank has male breasts, invents a male bra for him and inspires a joint business venture. Trying to make peace with the doorman, Jerry gets haplessly conscripted as a stand-in doorman, and ends up liable when a couch gets stolen.
