The Last of the Doyles

Jake goes for a routine medical exam, and discovers his "little Doyles don't work." The Doyle family decides to prank Jake, each member claiming that they are either impotent, can't bear children, or are gay, leading Jake to believe he is the last of the Doyles.

Jake is distraught that such a fine people will soon die out, and donates himself to science to find the secret to immortality, so nobody has to live in a world without Doyles. Scientists discover a way to cryogenically freeze Jake, so that he will live forever in suspended animation. Jake has one last shag with Leslie. The doctors freeze Jake, and build a grand mausoleum for him in Bannerman Park where everyone can enjoy him.

Leslie is shocked to discover she is with child. Is Jake really the father, and can the immortality process be reversed? This sounds like a job for Jakes' time machine. Or a nuclear reactor. Or a trip to the Sun. Or a secret antidote. Or a trip to the Earth's core. Or the miracle of Leslie's touch. Or whatever they did to Han Solo in Star Wars. The cryogenic freezing doesn't actually stand much of a chance.
