1. Happy New Year
Larry cleans his glasses with his assistant's shirt while she is wearing it causing her to become uncomfortable and accuse him of sexual harassment. Larry and Leon go to Mocha Joe's and Larry complains about a wobbly table, cold coffee, and the softness of the scones. Larry is then banned from the coffee shop. At a dinner party at Jeff and Susie's, Jeff is commonly mistaken for Harvey Weinstein by various women and receives dirty looks. Larry accidentally touches a server's breast when trying to grab food from the tray. With Ted Danson out of town, Larry offers to drive Cheryl home, and they kiss in the car and end up having sex together in bed. After getting the idea from Jeff, Larry wears a Make America Great Again hat to get out of having lunch with Philip Rosenthal, believing that if he is seen as a Trump supporter, good people will want nothing to do with him. The server from the dinner party calls Larry's office and talks with his assistant Alice about the incident. In an act of spite, Larry leases the location next to Mocha Joe's, and tells Joe that he will be opening a coffee shop as well. It will be called Latte Larry's and everything will be cheaper. Cheryl has an allergic reaction to Larry's talcum powder while having sex and winds up in the hospital. Susie figures out their secret and Larry bolts from the hospital when he learns Ted has returned.
2. Side Sitting
Larry meets with his lawyer Roger to discuss the sexual harassment complaint from his assistant Alice. Larry asks to use his private bathroom, but is denied access. Larry has a cancer scare and is angry when his friends do not inquire about how his tests went. At lunch with Cheryl, Larry hopes to get back together, but she does not want to. For Susie's birthday, Larry gives her a painted portrait of herself that he had commissioned, which Susie adores and absolves Larry of the horrible things he has done to her. Larry goes on a date with Rita ( Teri Polo ), the lawyer's assistant, and video records their date as proof of no wrongdoings due to his current legal situation. At a dinner party at Susie's, the portrait gets accidentally tarnished which angers Susie, but Larry promises to fix it. At another meeting with his lawyer, Larry uses his private bathroom while his office is empty. When Roger arrives, he senses Larry used his bathroom and questions him. Larry meets with Alice at a restaurant and calms her concerns, but Alice becomes offended and leaves when he sits too close to her, to prove to Ted Danson that he "side sits with everyone," after Ted was previously made aware that Larry was "side sitting" with Cheryl. At a deposition and under oath, Roger uses the opportunity to question Larry about whether he used his bathroom or not.
3. Artificial Fruit
Larry hires a former New York pastry chef for his coffee shop and has him make scones that Larry gives to his friends to taste. At a meeting with his lawyer, Larry is told he needs to donate, as well as make a speech for Survivors United, a charity for survivors of sexual assault, in order to make amends with Alice and to make the sexual harassment suit go away. Larry and Richard Lewis argue over who will pay the bill for lunch, each of them wanting to pay themselves. Larry and Leon both have incidents involving artificial fruit where they chip a tooth. At the charity event hosted by Laverne Cox, Larry rejects a hug from her on stage because he was previously made aware from her that she has a cold. The audience, including Alice, assume it is because she is transgender and boos him. Alice now wants a personal monetary settlement as well. Before the meeting, Larry and Alice wait for the elevator and Larry offers Alice a scone, but it is too dry and Alice starts to choke. Larry begins to perform the Heimlich maneuver but hesitates because he does not know if it is appropriate to touch her, and she falls to the ground.
4. You're Not Going to Get Me to Say Anything Bad About Mickey
After Alice collapsed in the elevator in the previous episode, she loses her memory, thus forgetting her sexual harassment claim. Larry, Leon, Jeff, Susie, and Cheryl all head over to Cabo San Lucas for a friend's wedding on a private jet. Larry gets frustrated when no one will tell him their weight, despite it being a request of the pilot. Larry begins dating a new woman, Donna ( Megyn Price ), and invites her along, but is concerned when he sees an older photo and determines that she is a yo-yo dieter. Once at the resort Larry runs into numerous issues. His room is much smaller than the others, the groom Mickey ( Timothy Olyphant ) will not let him borrow a toothbrush, despite having one extra, and he is charged an exorbitant amount for reporting a stain on a chair in his room. After borrowing a toothbrush off of Cheryl, Ted Danson arrives unexpectedly, and causes a scene when he sees Larry brushing his teeth in their bathroom. Leon discovers the hotel's coffee is incredible, and after failing to buy some beans, he and Larry steal some to take back for use in Larry's coffee shop. At the wedding, Ted reveals that he knows that Larry slept with Cheryl. Ted starts a fight, causing the groom to loudly berate Larry, and Jeff when he supports Larry. On the plane ride home, Larry gives the pilot everyone's weight which he garnered from a carnival barker who guesses peoples weights and correctly guessed Larry's weight earlier in the night, but because of the beans, Larry cannot fly home himself, and is forced to watch everyone else leave on the plane.
5. Insufficient Praise
While overseeing preparations for the coffee shop, specifically the urinals, Ted Danson visits Larry to tell him he is now a financial backer for Mocha Joe's.

At lunch with Richard and his new girlfriend Carol ( Isla Fisher ), Larry gifts her a stole that belonged to his mother, after hearing a tragic story of how she lost her mother. However, he immediately learns that she is a 'professional crier' and believes he has been swindled. Larry also gets a new housekeeper from Susie, on condition that she visit two set days a week. However, the housekeeper asks Larry to come when she would work for Susie, as she intends to quit working for her, due to her foul mouth, leaving Susie furious. Jeff has a new client, Clive Owen, whom Larry deeply offends when he gives 'insufficient praise' to his one-man show that he performed. Ted learns of the sex doll from Larry's mailman, and immediately goes to tell Cheryl. Larry attempts to retrieve his stole from Carol, believing her story to be fake, and she angrily slaps him in the face. At Clive's show, Larry has Jeff hire Carol to cry during the performance, thus encouraging others to cry, and restoring Clive's confidence. After the show, however, Larry attempts to get the stole back, and is led away by a police officer. Clive and Carol meet, and begin a relationship, which is short-lived when Clive discovers her profession, and they get into a fight in the street, which leads to her presumed death after being hit by a van.

Susie refuses to budge, and Larry believes she is trying to kill him. While at the doctor's, Larry is caught behind Wally ( Fred Armisen ) who uses a walker and befriends him, using him to spy on Susie at a travel agency. Larry believes the inventor, Boris, is a white supremacist when he learns his dog is named Adolf, and responds to a Nazi salute. Larry manufactures a plan to have Jeff's cardiologist Andrew "Rusty" Holtzer ( Greg Germann ) at the party, despite not being invited, while his receptionist ( Rebecca Romijn ) is feeling uncomfortable with all his unannounced visits. Wally lends Larry his handicapped sign, which he and Leon immediately abuse, and Boris' dog eats. Without his handicapped sign, Wally struggles to find a parking space at Jeff's surprise party, where Chris Martin of Coldplay is performing. Since he cannot find a space, he cannot warn Jeff of the surprise party in time, as Larry had asked him to do. Although Jeff is fine, his cardiologist is loudly berated by Susie when she sees him, and he suffers a heart attack.

Larry repeatedly takes his BMW dealership under false pretenses just to eat their German licorice candy. Susie plans to go out of town and Larry, Jeff, Richard and Freddy plan use that time to go to Pebble Beach. But Jeff expresses his joy a little too much while dropping Susie at the airport, that she suspects something is afoot and cancels her trip - thereby canceling the men's Pebble Beach trip. A waitress contaminates the food served at the Golf club restaurant and Mr. Takashi fires her. Larry sympathizes with her and gives her a job at Latte Larry's.

10. The Spite Store
Latte Larry's is featured in a Today Show segment documenting the spite store trend that it has spawned. Also featured are Jonah's Deli ( Jonah Hill ) and Sean's Exotic Birds ( Sean Penn ). Larry's doctor informs him that his knee requires arthroscopic surgery, then becomes irritated when Larry seeks a second opinion. Larry sees recently transitioned Joey Funkhouser nude in his country club's locker room and questions whether he will be able to manage his large penis. Leon invites Joey to join the Big Johnson community. Larry confronts a group of firefighters in his store who admit to using their sirens to expedite coffee runs. Alice visits Latte Larry's, but her memory loss prevents her from remembering their history and her planned lawsuit. Larry spreads discord between Susie's expectant friends Tara and Will when he inquires about their preference for the child's skin color. Larry offers to have Will's watch repaired at his jeweler, only to find it has been driven out of business by a spite store run by Mila Kunis. Larry confronts an ambulance driver who also admits to using sirens to expedite coffee runs. Larry forgets the watch on the counter in the club locker room, where it is accidentally knocked on the floor by Joey's penis.

At the hospital for Tara's delivery, Larry runs into both of his knee doctors, who lock horns. Changing out of his uniform at the coffee shop, Joey inadvertently knocks over a self-heating mug with his penis, sparking a fire that engulfs both Latte Larry's and Mocha Joe's. The dispatched fire truck is delayed by Larry who, assuming the truck is engaging in siren abuse, does not allow it to pass. At the scene, a fireman confides to Larry that several of the café's design features hindered their efforts and may lead to the fire being considered arson. Mocha Joe and Alice, now a couple, purchase the house adjacent to Larry's out of spite and throw a raucous party.
