[edit] Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

George meets a female Chinese lawyer who thinks he is very funny, so he tells Jerry not to be funny around her. Jerry adopts a dark and disturbed persona which ends up attracting the woman too.

Kramer returns early from baseball fantasy camp, where he accidentally punched Mickey Mantle. A mix-up with Jerry's mail, which Elaine was supposed to pick up, causes Babu Bhatt to be arrested for not renewing his visa. Jerry tries to get the lawyer to help Babu, but George's honesty, when his relationship is threatened, causes Babu to be deported to Pakistan and Elaine to still be sued by the delivery boy, Ping, whom she had hit previously ("The Virgin"). Babu Bhatt wants revenge on Jerry whom he calls a "very bad man".
