Plot
Riding on a bus Jerry and George meet a friend, Al Netche, who tells them another friend, Fulton, is in a hospital, and that Jerry may want to visit him as he might need a "good laugh."
George feels bored when he has nothing to talk about with his girlfriend, Daphne, and he wants to break up. Later, Daphne tells George that Al encouraged her to end the relationship as George doesn't commit and may end up hurting her. George decides to postpone the break-up and sustain the relationship just for spite, to prove Al wrong.
Kramer has got a job as a stand-in actor, in the series All My Children, along with his friend Mickey Abbott (Danny Woodburn), a "little person" who is offended by the term "midget". Mickey, however, is worried about keeping his role as a rapidly growing child. Kramer suggests Mickey use "lifts" to increase his height, to which Mickey reluctantly agrees.
Jerry later sets up a date for Elaine with his friend, Phil Totola.
