Synopsis[]
Part 1 of two-part story. Doug takes Carrie on a trip to a lakeside hotel in celebration of his recent weight loss, only later to remember that it wasn't Carrie that he took previously.
Storyline[]
Doug - who, by the way, has lost 40 pounds - takes Carrie out on a surprise holiday to a place in the mountains they visited ten years ago. Meanwhile, Spence and Danny watch Arthur and the house. Carrie told them what Arthur isn't allowed to do. However, since Spence and Danny disagree about almost everything, Arthur seems to be able to get to do what he wants.

Trivia[]
- Spoilers
- The resort and area that Doug and Carrie drive around is really around Lake Tahoe. They drive past a sign Route 28 North (California).
- After doing further research, the signage for state route 28 (black lettering on a white background) indicates that they are filming on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe, which also borders California.
- The gas station/ motel they stop on the way up is on Alger Creek (near June Lake) off California Route 395 which eventually leads to Lake Tahoe, and weaves between the states of California & Nevada.

- Quotes
- Danny: [Danny and Spence are housesitting for Doug and Carrie and are fighting over who gets the bed. Danny is already in bed and Spence threatens to get into bed with him] Fine, bring it. What's taking so long?
- Spence: [Starts disrobing] You think I'm going to let one uncomfortable camp experience keep me out of this bed, you are wrong. Alright, I'm getting in and I'm not getting out.
- Danny: Great. Still want to stay? Because I sleep freestyle. [Danny reaches under the sheets, pulls off his underpants, and flings them across the room]
- Spence: You know what? [Spence then reaches under the sheets, pulls off his underpants and drops them on the bedspread]
- Spence: So do I. Ah, ooh, that's good.
- Danny: [They slowly realize that neither one of them are wearing underpants] We may have wandered down a bad road here!
