I was watching Episode #88 - The Big Salad tonight, and the waitress hands the Big Salad to Julie:
WAITRESS: Here's your big salad to go.
JULIE: Oh, thank you.
Then in the next scene Julie hands Elaine the Big Salad and Elaine thanks her for it:
JULIE: Here's your big salad.
ELAINE: Thank you, Julie.
JULIE: Oh, you're very welcome.
So my question is:
Who ordered The Big Salad -- George or Julie?
If Julie ordered the Big Salad, it makes sense that the waitress handed her The Big Salad and that's why she would end up handing it to Elaine. And it would be Julie's sense of commitment to Elaine as a person to remember to order it for her. Yes, George paid for the salad, but of course Julie was going to pay for her own lunch at first.
(check arrives)
GEORGE: All right. I got it.
JULIE: No, no. I'd like to take you out.
GEORGE: No, Julie, Julie, don't insult me. You know, what difference does it make who pays for lunch. It's totally meaningless.

GEORGE: Did you happen to notice that Julie handed the big salad to Elaine?
JERRY: Yeah, so?
GEORGE: Well, she didn't BUY the big salad. I bought the big salad.
JERRY: Is that a fact?
GEORGE: Yes it is. She just took credit for my salad. That's not right.

Could George really have handed Elaine the bag?
I don't think so, because I contend that Julie ordered the Big Salad for Elaine and George never did have possession of the bag:
GEORGE: oh, . . .because she handed you the bag. I could have handed you the bag.
She happened to pick it up at the restaurant even though, . . .
ELAINE: Even though what?
GEORGE: . . . naw, it's just you thanked HER, and and oh, . . . what's the difference?
ELAINE: What? What are you trying to say, George?
GEORGE: It's just that I was the one who actually paid for the big salad. She just happened to hand it to you. But it's no big deal.
ELAINE: You want the money for the big salad, George?
GEORGE: No, no,
ELAINE: What is the problem?
GEORGE: There is no problem. . . just a small miscommunication. Whereby you thanked her instead of the person actually responsible for purchasing the big salad.
---
GEORGE: . . . WELL IT WAS A BIG SALAD. AND WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS, HOW DOES A PERSON WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BIG SALAD CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY FOR THAT SALAD AND ACCEPT THE THANK YOU UNDER FALSE PRETENSES - AH - AH?
JULIE: George, all I did was hand someone a bag.
(Julie leaves)
Did Julie really have nothing to do with The Big Salad or was she the person responsible for making sure Elaine received her Big Salad?
WAITRESS: Here's your big salad to go.
JULIE: Oh, thank you.
Then in the next scene Julie hands Elaine the Big Salad and Elaine thanks her for it:
JULIE: Here's your big salad.
