Jerry reluctantly agrees to have dinner with wannabe comedian Kenny Bania after Banis gives him an Armani suit, but they disagree on whether or not soup constitutes as dinner. George gets paranoid after an awkward date with a waitress at Monk's. An annoying Englishman comes with Elaine to America following a business trip to England. Kramer goes on a fresh food binge after passing a kidney stone, which results in him dating a Big Eater named Hildy.
Tropes:
- Big Eater: Hildy, a waitress at Reggie's, has quite the appetite.
- Entitled Bastard: Kenny. He thinks buying Jerry a fancy suit constitutes as Jerry going out to dinner with him. Jerry was at first willing to fulfill the obligation of just one date.
- Exact Words: Kenny uses this as his go-to excuse as to why Jerry hasn't fulfilled his obligations to have dinner with him because soup does not count as dinner.
- Moving The Goal Posts: Kenny does this twice in order to prolong Jerry buying him a meal. Jerry is not having it.
- Persona Non Grata: George is forbidden back at Monk's after making many Harassing Phone Calls to Kelly. Given his and Kelly's rocky relationship, it's safe to say George most likely doesn't care.
- You Owe Me: Jerry and Bania's plot in the episode is this.
