What happens
00:33–02:12In Jerry's apartment, Jerry introduces Elaine to 'Golden Boy,' his six-year-old yellow T-shirt that is fraying at the collar. He refuses to hand-wash it, claiming the machine wash cycle is its 'game.' Elaine gets a call about picking up Russian author Yuri Testikov. Jerry then claims 'War and Peace' was originally titled 'War, What is it Good For?' citing Tolstoy's mistress as the reason for the change.
