Seinfeld: Season 6 Episode 24

The Understudy

George and Jerry are suspected, by the cast and Kramer, of deliberately injuring Bette Midler during a softball game, giving Jerry’s girlfriend, Bette’s understudy, a chance to perform. Kramer becomes Bette’s personal assistant. Elaine gets George’s father to translate for her when she suspects that her manicurist has made some obvious snide remarks in a foreign tongue. While crying about losing her manicurists, Elaine meets the owner of a catalog, J. Peterman, and gets herself a new job.
