Elaine has “catalogue writer’s block” coming up with copy for the Himalayan walking shoe, in her first appearance working at the Peterman catalogue.

“The Caddy”
Sue Ellen Mischke visits Elaine at work wearing a bra as a top, sparking a fashion trend for Peterman, the “Gatsby Swing Top.”

“The Shower Head”
Mr. Peterman tells Elaine she’s tested positive for opium (“white lotus…yam yam…Shanghai sally”). Peterman later physically escorts Kramer out, thinking he’s begging his dealer Elaine for opium.

“The Friars Club”
Elaine is stuck with a semi-deaf coworker, who may or may be not abusing his disability to shove work off to Elaine. Jerry later tests Bob’s hearing in the men’s washroom…which had mixed and inconclusive results.

“The Bottle Deposit”
Elaine is assigned by Mr. Peterman to buy a set of golf clubs formerly owned by John F. Kennedy, given a budget of $10,000 (she ends up spending $20,000, and then loses them).

“The Foundation”
Elaine uses her new seniority (a.k.a. “katra”) to push the Urban Sombrero as the cover feature for the new catalog.

“The Little Kicks”
Elaine’s staff begin imitating her, forcing her to place the blame on George, and inadvertently setting up George with one of her coworkers.

“The Fatigues”
Elaine intends to fire mailroom employee Eddie Sherman, but constantly promotes him out of fear. The situation eventually boils to the point where only Elaine and Eddie are writing the catalog, as all other writing staff quit in protest.

“The Chicken Roaster”
Elaine gets grilled by accounting for putting merchandise on the Peterman account…and somehow manages to expense everything but George’s sable hat.

“The Money”
Kramer visits Elaine’s office for tips on how to stay with Emily, but ends up offending her and is kicked out. Morty gets a job at Peterman in order to “support” Jerry financially, but quits when he becomes too tired of the long days running past 4:00.

“The Van Buren Boys”
Kramer sells off his entire life’s stories to Mr. Peterman for $750, which Elaine then is forced to somehow turn into Peterman’s autobiography.

“The English Patient”
Elaine gets taken out of work by Mr. Peterman to see “The English Patient” for a second time, and is fired upon admitting she hates it.
