Plot[]
Quagmire and Kimi have a lovely morning breakfast and they talk about how they'll be having a family reunion between their two families soon. Quagmire goes to work, where he sexually harasses a female co-worker and gets in trouble for it. Quagmire thinks little of it and goes about his day.
At The Drunken Clam, Quagmire hangs with The Beer Bar Buddies and there, he's attacked by Denise, for all his sexual harassment. The next thing you know, Quagmire is trending on Twitter, having been canceled by the #MeToo movement. This includes ire from Lois, who tells him that he's a disgusting creep and that she hates him and forbids to ever come near Peter or her family ever again. Before long, Quagmire loses his job, his respect, and becomes a social pariah everywhere he goes. The only people who still respect him are his wife, who still tells him that it's probably for the best that he change.
Quagmire goes to a Sexaholics Anonymous Camp, where he's taught how to control himself and becomes a better man, just in time for his family reunion. In fact, his female co-worker even forgives him, Twitter finally shuts up about him, and his boss gives him his old job back. Despite having recovered, Lois still refused to let Quagmire hang out with Peter, not forgiving him for harassing every gross thing he did in the past. Peter doesn't understand that after everything Quagmire did, why Lois is just now deciding to hate him and Lois says that because this is the year 2021 and she is finally more woke now and admits that she should have shut Quagmire out of her life a long time ago.
At the family reunion, Kimi sees her family and notices that Kira is doing so much better than her in life and just graduated high school and is now going off to college, having a normal boyfriend and a normal life. This makes her feel bad about being an 18-year-old with an adult husband who just recovered from being a sex addict. Kimi decides to divorce Quagmire and breaks his heart. Quagmire tries to tell her that he's a changed man but Kimi tells him that it's not about that. She wants to live a normal life. She doesn't like the poor decisions she's made and she, herself, wants to quit being a Sexaholic and live a normal life.
Kimi goes to court and finalizes her divorce with Quagmire and then leaves to go back to school but doesn't get accepted into her old school, Adam West High School, because of how she got kicked out when she ditched school for over 10 days, when she first married Quagmire and pursued this new life. With some help from Kira, Kimi gets her life back together, by quenching herself of her sluttiness, putting a shirt on, and going to another high school that Kira had gone to. Kira puts in a good word for Kimi and she gets accepted in. Now, Kimi is on the right path in life and she completely leaves her regrettable past with Quagmire behind.
Quagmire is sad and miserable about Kimi leaving him but Lois comes over to visit him and says that she has forgiven him for what he did in the past and that she'll let him hang out with Peter again. She lets him know that now that he's a changed man, he can try to become a better person in the future and that while Kimi is also on a road to a better life, he is too.
