Complete story — includes the ending

Larry hires a private investigator to find out if he is adopted. He is reluctant to take the case, but does so for a higher fee. Larry wonders whether he is a Muslim. He later finds out that he is when he walks in on him while he is praying. Larry is delighted at being popular with lesbians. However, he is pleased when Marty Funkhouser tells him that his previously lesbian daughter, Jodi, has started a relationship with a man. Larry's elation at this causes him to be shunned by lesbians. Larry tells Jodi's boyfriend lesbians are better at pleasuring women than men are because of their experience from masturbating, damaging his sexual confidence. The couple split, and she returns to a relationship with a woman. As a result, Larry's popularity with lesbians is restored. Larry adopts a dog, Sheriff, from the animal shelter. When Wanda visits, she thinks it is racist because it barks at her and a black man. However, it later barks at Rosie O'Donnell (who is white) and is stroked by the PI without barking.
