Anyone else wonder what Mr. Shoop was doing in a male strip bar?


I understand that it was a plot device to establish that Larry was leading a double life, but still.....

One of two possibilities. The first is that it's a strip club with female dancers most nights but he just happened to walk into ladies night. Second possibility is that he was there to try and pick someone up.

Yeah, I thought it was the latter scenario. For a single, hot-blooded man, going to a strip bar full of women on ladies night would be like shooting fish in a barrel. And it looked like he was trying to pick up that gravel-voiced lady (lame pick-up line: "Excuse me, I'm with Playgirl magazine..."), but she shot him down. He then recognized Larry and forgot about his quest.

They wanted to show how he was so lonely and desperate at the time he even went as far as to act like a writer for Playgirl magazine as a way to prey on drunk/eager woman at a male strip club

The most inexplicable thing is that he would choose that smoker-voiced frump as his target.

"Jesus, does anyone?"
