Spence pretends to be Carrie's husband at a work event when a client finds Doug to be disagreeable; Arthur's upset he isn't the center of attention.

When Carrie discovers that her and Doug's ski weekend getaway was motivated by a promotion for a free plasma TV that Doug wants, her romantic mood sours.

When their neighbor passes away, Carrie convinces Doug it would be a smart investment to buy the house and sell it for profit.

Doug convinces Carrie to take pole dancing lessons but is disappointed when she puts on a show for him.
