Dog Bites Man: Assignment: Undercover Homosexual

(S01E02) I'm a homosexual and I'd love a sandwich. - Kevin Beekin

This episode took several hilarious satirical jabs at misconceptions about gay people, the most revealing (and uncomfortable) scene being where they interview an actual gay person and keep telling him to end his sentences with "girlfriend" so he'll appear more gay than he seems. If you miss the guerrilla improv of Upright Citizens Brigade, Dog Bites Man is probably your kind of show. This episode begins with the KHBX News team taking part in a racial sensitivity seminar where they talk about their experiences working with people of different races and backgrounds, including Tilly's dream about a black man which she wasn't sure was racist or not because while he was well-endowed, he was also president of Harvard Law School. They also mention a gay man in a wheelchair who used to work for them and who insisted everyone call him "Rolaids." Alan, the director, misses the point of the seminar entirely and brings an electric razor with him, thinking it's actually about "facial" sensitivity.

Determined to expose homophobia in Spokane, Kevin decides to go undercover as a homosexual. He enters a sub shop and orders a sandwich, then has Alan the director order the same sandwich. When it's revealed that "gay" Kevin got less cheese on his sandwich than Alan did, they bust into the shop to accuse the establishment of homophobia, at least until one of the workers points out that Alan actually ordered extra cheese.

Finally, they try it again, this time with Kevin and Marty pretending to be a gay couple checking into a hotel room and revealing way too much about their relationship than the desk clerk wants to know. They try to accuse the clerk of homophobia because she gave them a room with  a "queen"-size bed, but that doesn't quite pan out, either. In the end, Kevin reports that what he discovered while he was undercover as a gay man (and keep in mind Kevin's idea of "being gay" is to dress in varicolored shirts, speak in an effeminate voice, and immediately announce to everyone in the room that he's homosexual) is that homophobia no longer exists and is gone forever.
