- George gets a secretary, saying he will go for efficiency and smarts rather than beauty. He hires a librarian-esque woman, only to find himself falling in love with her.
- George is authorized by the Yankees to get himself a secretary and he's decided not to hire an attractive woman as it would be too distracting. It doesn't really make a difference. Elaine is having a problem with an expensive dress she's recently bought and is convinced that the store is using "skinny mirrors." Jerry thinks he sees his dry cleaner wearing his jacket at the movies. Kramer gets Uma Thurman's phone number and writes it down on Jerry's dry cleaning ticket.—garykmcd
- Jerry is taking his mother's fur coat and his jacket to dry cleaning. George is going to hire a secretary; he says he'll pass over attractive women so he can concentrate on his work. He hires Ada, (Vicki Lewis) a very efficient secretary. George is still working for the New York Yankees. Ada is very perceptive and is always one step ahead of George.
Kramer is in need of moisturizer with ultraviolet light absorbing quality. Elaine bought a dress on sale at Barney's because it looked great in their mirrors, but now it looks awful. She thinks they are using "skinny mirrors" which make people look thinner. She wants to return the dress.
Jerry, Elaine and Kramer go to the movies. Kramer meets Uma Thurman and writes her phone number on Jerry's dry-cleaning ticket. Jerry thinks he saw Willie (Joseph R. Sicari), the dry cleaner, wearing his jacket at the movies. George and his secretary, Ada, feel attracted to each other and have sex at work. During sex, George accidentally screams: "I'm giving you a raise!". Later, George realizes that he is not authorized to give any raises. When George talks to Jerry about this problem, Jerry suggests George have sex with her again and 'take it back.'. George decides to walk into his boss's (Steinbrenner) office to ask him to give Ada a raise.
At Barney's, Elaine and Kramer return the dress. Kramer has bought the moisturizer he wanted & puts it in his suit, and Elaine tries on another dress. At the store Kenny Bania (Steve Hytner) is looking for a new suit ("The Soup"), and he purchases Kramer's garments for $300. Bania says that he finds it very hard to buy clothes that fit him perfectly and realizes that Kramer is the exact same size as him. Kramer doesn't think ahead & simply sells all the clothes he is wearing to Bania. George goes to talk to George Steinbrenner to give Ada the raise he promised. George ends up telling Steinbrenner that all of the great ideas that came from him, actually belonged to Ada. Jerry confronts the dry cleaner about wearing his clothes. Jerry demands his mother's fur coat and the dry cleaner pauses looking to the side implying that it is not there. The dry cleaner asks for the ticket but Kramer has it so Jerry cannot pick up the coat.
Kramer is left in underwear in the women's dressing room. He tells Elaine to ask Jerry for clothes. Elaine goes outside the store looking for an unbiased mirror. When Elaine comes back, the store lady forces Elaine to buy the dress as now it has salt stains on the hemline. Elaine is not happy with the dress but has no choice. Jerry comes to the store looking for moisturizer and hears Kramer's voice coming from the changing rooms. Jerry asks Kramer for the laundry ticket; however, it was left in Kramer's trousers which are now in Bania's possession. Kenny Bania wants his money back because the suit he bought from Kramer is stained by the moisturizer which leaked in the suit's pocket. Jerry only cares about the ticket, so he agrees to pay Bania two meals in exchange. However, both the dry-cleaning number and Uma Thurman's phone are washed out. Then, Jerry spots Donna, the dry cleaner's wife, wearing his mother's fur coat. Jerry fights with the dry cleaner's wife to get the fur coat back.
As it turned out Steinbrenner gave Ada a $25,000 raise, which makes Ada's earnings greater than George's. George speaks to Steinbrenner, but he goes off on a tangent without really addressing George's issue. Kramer wears Jerry's mother's fur coat to walk back to his apartment.
Again, having dinner at Mendy's with Jerry, Bania orders a soup. Bania wrote the telephone number from the ticket before it was washed out; he got a date with this "Uma", and he hopes she is good looking.
