Plot

Elaine is depressed about the low quality of her apartment, when Jerry overhears the two managers of his building discussing a death that makes an apartment available. Shocked by the low rent, Jerry immediately tells Elaine that he will be able to get her the apartment. She is extremely excited to hear this, as she will be able to live near Jerry. Though at first excited as well, Jerry later realizes how intrusive Elaine might become, and that living with her might easily get annoying.

Meanwhile, George hears about the effect a man with a wedding ring has on a woman, and starts wearing one to see what happens. This plan backfires, as he discovers that wearing the ring is actually causing women who would otherwise date him to reject him.

This is the first episode where Elaine does her "Get out" shove, when she learns that Jerry has gotten her an apartment in his building.
