- Cheryl needs a prescription picked up for a terrible rash, which is repeatedly complicated by Larry. Larry and Cheryl make plans to meet directly for their dinner reservation after Larry picks up Cheryl's prescription.
Larry is called for a meeting by Richard Lewis who tells him that Larry never calls him anymore. Larry tells Richard that he doesn't get along with Sophia and that's the reason for him not taking the initiative anymore. Richard is very upset, so Larry decides to invite him & Sophia over for dinner to make an attempt to like Sophia.
While Larry & Richard are talking, a colored doctor Grambs (Gregg Daniel) walks by, who happens to be a friend of Richard's. Larry makes a poor joke on affirmative action, which seems to suggest that colored folks can only achieve anything with help from affirmative action type initiatives. When the doctor is offended, but Larry tries to defend himself that it was a joke. Dr Grambs says that he has worked too long and too hard to reach where he is and doesn't need Larry's stamp of approval. Larry says that he was trying to be affable. Due to this altercation, Larry forgets to pick up Cheryl's prescription.
At Dinner, Larry has to tip the captain to get seated at a really crowded restaurant and accidentally hands him over Cheryl's prescription instead of cash. At dinner, Larry runs into another black person Denise Pendergrass (Karen Bankhead). Denise is an actress that he has worked with several years earlier, who is now angry at Larry as he seemed to suggest all those years ago that he loved her work, but never gave her a part in any of his shows (including Seinfeld). Larry says that he gave the part to a friend of his wife. That's all it was. Denise gets really angry at Larry.
After dinner, they head to a pharmacy, where Larry realizes that he gave the prescription to the captain. They head back to the restaurant only to find that the captain has thrown the prescription away. Larry goes through the kitchen trash but cannot find the prescription. Larry goes over to Richard to beg him to call his friend, Dr Grambs, to phone in a prescription for Cheryl.
To do that, Richard has to get Sophia off the phone, who is again upset that Larry is causing issues in her life. Richard is livid at Sophia as Cheryl has a life-threatening medical emergency and Sophia was only gossiping over the phone. Sophia says that she was on the phone with her agent. Dr Grambs agrees to write the prescription if Larry & Cheryl come over to his house. Larry is ecstatic when he figures out how to use the navigation system on his car. When Larry gets there, he again encounters Denise who tells everybody how Larry David is a racist and refused to give her a job, for which she was clearly qualified, just because of her skin color. Larry & Cheryl are kicked out.
In desperation, Cheryl pages her regular doctor, whom she is not supposed to call on the weekend. The doctor does call back & phones in the prescription. Larry goes to pick it up, but the pharmacy is crowded & is told to wait 45 mins. Larry tries to bribe the pharmacist (William Mesnik) and that makes the pharmacist furious & Larry is again kicked out.
