It was a set-up, you're on target there. A set-up left in place for good reason. Had fans been clamoring for Larry to contribute to a plot development, he may have had a significant part to play. Unfortunately they wrote him so negatively he was either a goner from the get-go, or so unlikeable that he needed to go.
