Elaine finds out that her favorite birth control method, "the sponge" is going to be discontinued, so she goes around town to find all the sponges she can find. Since she could only find a limited amount, Elaine comes up with a system of requiring her dates to prove they're "spongeworthy". Each date comes up with some way of proving himself. George gets in trouble with Jerry after telling Susan things that Jerry confided in George.
