Kelly, a waitress from Monk's Café, flirts with George. At Jerry's goading, he takes her out for a walk. George describes how he likes the word "manure", and Kelly makes a casual remark revealing that she has a boyfriend. Later, Jerry and George speculate whether she made that up to avoid George and whether the manure comment had anything to do with it. After having a kidney stone, Kramer decides to dump his refrigerator and eat only fresh foods. He starts dating Hildy, a waitress at Reggie's, and her appetite forces him to raid Jerry's apartment for food. Kenny Bania comes into Monk's Diner and offers to give Jerry a brand-new Armani suit, since he's been working out and it no longer fits. To Jerry's dismay, Elaine, George, and Kramer don't read his mood and urge him to take it, praising Kenny's generosity. Bania is delighted by everyone's attention, and in an offhand way insists Jerry should buy him a meal in exchange. In a later scene, Jerry reluctantly meets Bania at Mendy's restaurant, but Bania astounds Jerry by saying, "I'm just going to have soup. Yeah, I'll save the meal for another time." Jerry counters, "Another time? What other time? No no, Bania, no. This is the dinner." Bania insists, "Soup's not a meal. I give you a brand-new Armani suit, and you won't even buy me a meal?" so Jerry acquiesces unhappily.[2] Elaine has just returned from a trip to England with Mr. Pitt. While there, she met Simon, and has flown him back with her frequent-flyer miles. However, he becomes arrogant and doesn't have plans to return to England. Bania joins George and Jerry at Monk's; this time he orders soup and a sandwich. Jerry insists his obligation is fulfilled, overruling Bania's protests that they didn't eat in a fancy restaurant. Jerry is so overcome with disgust for Bania's manipulation that he gives the Armani suit to Simon. George feels uncomfortable in Monk's, because the playful banter he enjoyed with Kelly before has been replaced on her part with a cold formality that borders on rudeness. After asking Hildy, Kramer informs George that Kelly doesn't have a boyfriend. George badgers Jerry and Elaine to go to Reggie's. They find Reggie's does not offer the meals they have grown accustomed to at Monk's. At his apartment, Jerry is out of food for Hildy, who is in a bad mood because she got fired after Kramer made too many calls to her workplace. George decides to try the same trick with Kelly, reasoning that Kelly is the one who should have to leave because he had been going to Monk's far longer than she had been working there. Back at Monk's, Kelly informs Jerry and Elaine that Bloomingdale's ordered a bunch of her clips, so she isn't going to be working there anymore. Her boss, fed up with calls, tells both Jerry and Elaine that if George returns, he'll "turn him into my own personal hand puppet." Bania shows up and resentfully asks Jerry where the suit is. Simon arrives to announce that he has a job interview and is a shoo-in, thanks to the Armani suit, so he will be staying in the country indefinitely. This is not news Elaine wants to hear, so she calls, "Hey, Kenny. You still want to get that suit back? There it goes." Following her pointing finger, a heated Bania dashes outside to grab it from Simon. Hearing cries of "Unhand me!" and "Take it off!", and then the unmistakable sound of cloth ripping, Jerry and Elaine salute each other in triumph. Meanwhile, George dines alone at Reggie's.
