The episode begins with Jerry and George on the plane to LA, where George becomes upset when he realizes that he left the script for their pilot episode on the plane.

He claims to be there to pursue his dream of becoming an actor, but later reveals that he is actually there to retrieve a pair of pants that he left in LA years ago.

Jerry and George are invited to a party hosted by one of the executives of NBC, but things quickly go wrong when George accidentally trips and spills a tray of hors d'oeuvres on the executive's wife.
