[edit] Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

George thinks his girlfriend is perfect, except for one flaw: she has a weird looking nose, so Kramer encourages her to get rhinoplasty. Jerry is conflicted about his relationship with an actress whom he finds beautiful but with whom he has nothing in common. George's girlfriend gets the rhinoplasty, but it is botched and George breaks up with her. However once it's fixed she's beautiful, and with Kramer, leaving George to rue his decision to break up with her.

Spoilers end here.

[edit] Trivia

  • This episode features a scene which was famous among behind-the-scenes "Seinfeld" lore for being the one which Julia Louis-Dreyfus had the hardest time getting through without laughing. The sight of Michael Richards as Kramer stuffing his pipe full of tobacco caused Julia to continually burst into giggles. Michael was noticeably displeased with Julia's inability to keep a straight face during this scene, insisting that her laughter was throwing off his concentration. Julia's giggly fits would interrupt the filming of many later scenes throughout the show's run, much to Michael's annoyance.
