Lowell Lovelace (Archie Coleman) has an idea to cash in on casino money via his 37.8% American Indian heritage. He redecorates the house in what he thinks is authentic (from eBay) American Indian style including a 7 1/2 foot totem pole which his neighbor Jenkins (Don McClendon) helps him assemble.
Lowell, unfortunately, picks the night of the first meeting between the Lovelace's and Patricia Lovelace's (Lauren Liddell) prospective in-laws. Maggie Lovelace (Barbara Swift) greets the Barondorfs, the mother Loretta (Bobbie Williams), Patricia's fiance Lawrence (Maurice Walters), and the father Walter (Ethan Jones) with Lowell determined to exude indianess.
The tense gathering is interrupted by Rajeem Nasir (Tyrone Van Hoesen) a Pakistani terrorist (I'm not Indian!) whom Lowell mistakens for the tribal representative that is to arrive to confirm Lowell's tribal status. He takes everyone hostage and reveals his intent on blowing up a famous St. Louis landmark.

 Lowell's son Alex AKA LAX (Jeremy Thomas) does a rap in honor of the unveiling of the totem pole.
Not to be out done by a show of family heritage, Jenkins enters displaying his Scottish decent.
Rajeem is ultimately subdued by Maggie's mother Noola Brown (Ruby Lacy) a former girl gang leader.
The next day the tribal representative, Timothy Lightfoot (Mike Costello) does arrive to induct Lowell in a peace pipe ceremony as the Barondorfs and the Lovelaces square off over the wedding once again.
