Complete story — includes the ending

Larry is annoyed by his acquaintances asking him for favors and by Cheryl's parents, who are staying at the Davids' house. He accidentally trips and injures Shaquille O'Neal at a Lakers basketball game, which makes Larry even more unpopular than usual, to Larry's delight. However, it has apparently given him good luck. He is pleased at Cheryl's parents leaving and him being no longer asked for favors. After apologizing successfully to Shaq, Larry's luck turns bad again. Dr. Craig Wiggins, the Lakers' professional team doctor ( Joel McKinnon Miller ), refuses to check a worrying spot on Larry's neck.
