SYNOPSIS

As Elaine finds her boyfriend's fur coat obnoxious, she, Jerry and George decide to buy a massage chair for their friend, Joe Mayo. When George sees the chair cheaper elsewhere, he offers to get it and save some money. But only at a party for Joe does George reveal that sending it overnight delivery was too expensive, leaving them without the gift. Meanwhile, Elaine throws what she thinks is David's fur coat out the window, only to discover that it was Joe's. And after reversing the peepholes on their doors, Kramer and Newman convince Jerry that wallets are pass?

After Newman is threatened with eviction over his modified peephole, Kramer intervenes with their super, unaware that his friend is having an affair with Silvio's wife. And as Elaine reluctantly agrees to buy Joe a new coat, George develops back problems due to his overly-large wallet, prompting him to keep the massage chair before delivering it to Joe. After Elaine recommends that the wallet-less Jerry start carrying a purse, Newman discovers the discarded fur hanging in a tree. But when Elaine asks for it back, she's told that Newman already gave it to Silvio's wife, forcing Jerry to pretend it's his in order to keep their suspicious super from learning the truth.

Upon learning that Mayo doesn't appreciate his taste in music, Jerry asks George to cancel their order for the chair. As Jerry learns that George has been using it all along, Kramer asks him to put on the fur and make things look good for Silvio. However, when Elaine tries to claim the coat, Kramer covers by suggesting that Svetlana is having an affair with Joe Mayo. Finally, Silvio seeks revenge against Joe as the massage chair wears out as a result of George's constant use.

In this episode, we learn that Kramer and Newman don't carry wallets anymore, "just a couple cards and a bankroll." We also learn that Newman secretly reads Elaine's mail and that Newman learned to climb trees like a ringtail lemur in the Pacific Northwest.

"Please, sit down. Newman, um, I wanted to talk to you about something."

NEWMAN:

“This isn't about my opening your mail?

"What?"
