Complete story — includes the ending

Kramer campaigns to revitalize an old movie theater with Lloyd Braun's help. Since Lloyd was freshly institutionalized for a nervous breakdown, Kramer demands that everyone humor his every whim in support, and forces Jerry to savor some unappealing imported chewing gum from Lloyd. Elaine, trying to avoid leading Lloyd on like before, instead suffers mishaps that make her appear more lascivious than ever. George's unconcealed glee at Lloyd's downfall, and the unbelievable misfortunes that befall him, worry childhood friend Deena as warning signs of his own impending breakdown.
